Chinese people are getting bigger. More and more Chinese people are overweight. About 23% of the Chinese boys under twenty were overweight, while for girls it was 14%, said a news report in 2013. China was listed as the second most overweight country in the world, after the US.

Part of the reason is our growing economy (經(jīng)濟(jì)). Chinese families now make enough money to buy more food, especially fatty food such as meat. In 1980, the average (平均) person in China ate 12 kg of meat. The number increased to 60 kg in 2013. And many people also eat at fast food stores a lot. They take in a lot of fatty food but exercise little. Each year, 2.8 million adults die of illnesses such as diabetes and heart illnesses.

We all need to follow the following healthy lifestyles. To stay in shape, people should eat less sugar and fat. People need to have less candy and red meat, too. Children need to do at least an hour of exercise every day, such as running and playing football on the playground. Many children now take part in special summer camps to lose weight. It's very important for children to grow up happily.

My husband had just bought a new washing machine for me. I decided to use it and I washed a lot of things.

Everything worked well, but I found one of my husband’s socks missing. I looked everywhere for it, but I couldn’t find it anywhere.

The next morning, I got ready for school as usual. When the bell rang, the students came in. I greeted them first and then told them what we were going to do that day. When I turned around to write on the blackboard, the class broke out a roar! They laughed and laughed. They laughed so much, in fact, that I was afraid the headmaster would be into seeing all this.

I asked the class to stop, but the more I talked, the more they laughed. I decided to pay no attention to them and I continued to write on the blackboard. When I did this, they roared even more.

Finally, the teacher who had the room next to mine came in to see what all the laughter was about. When he came in, he started laughing, too!

“Good heavens,” I said. “Will someone please tell me what is so funny?’

“Oh, God,” said the teacher. “You have a brown sock to the back of your skirt!”

So that’s how I found my husband’s missing sock.

“Oh, well,” I said to the class. “Let’s just say you have had an unforgettable lesson on static electricity.”

A. The class roared with anger.

B. There was a loud noise outside the room.

C. Another teacher came in.

D. The class began to laugh loudly.

2.Why couldn’t she find one of her husband’s socks?

A. Because some students had hidden it.

B. Because she never expected that it would stick to her skirt.

C. Because she had left it in the classroom.

D. Because her husband had taken it away.

3.Why did the teacher from the next room laugh?

A. Because the whole class laughed.

B. Because he saw the writer fooled by the class.

C. Because he saw some of the students making faces.

D. Because he found a sock on the back of the writer’s skirt.
