Besides, gardening (園藝) is also a useful hobby because it is a physical activity and it can teach children about nature.

Why would someone decide to stop eating? We know that the body needs food in order to work well. However, many people fast at some time during their lives. Why is this?

Some people fast for political reasons. In the early 20th century, women in England and the United States weren’t allowed to vote. So many women went on fast. They hoped that fasting would bring attention to it. Mohandas Gandhi, the famous Indian leader, fasted 17 times during his life. For Gandhi, fasting was a powerful political tool. In 1943, he fasted to bring attention to his country’s need for independence. For 21 days, he went without food. Another famous faster was Cesar Chavez. In the 1960s, he fasted for three weeks. Why? His goal was to bring attention to the terrible working conditions of farm workers in the United States.

Fasting is also a practice in many religions(宗教). Every year during the month of Ramadan, which is a religious holiday, Muslims(穆斯林) fast from sunrise to sunset. Many Indians fast at special time, and there was also a fasting holiday in ancient China.

Of course, not everyone fasts for political or religious reasons. People sometimes fast just because it makes them feel better. The American writer Mark Twain thought fasting was the best medicine for common illnesses. Whenever he had a cold or a fever, he stopped eating completely. He said that this always made his cold or fever go away. Another American writer, Upton Sinclair, discovered fasting after years of eating too much and headaches. His first fast lasted for 12 days. During this time, his headaches and stomachaches went away. Sinclair said that fasting also made him more alert and energetic.

Choosing to go without food can be very dangerous. However, that doesn’t stop people from fasting for political, religious, or health reasons.

You may know about “junk food” like French fries. But do you know about “junk sleep”？

Recently, a British survey found that electronic(電子的) products in teenagers’ bedrooms are affecting(影響) their sleep.

The survey was done among 1，000 British kids from 12 to 16.It found that 30% of them got just 4 to 7 hours of sleep every day. But doctors say they need 8 to 9 hours.

Almost a quarter of the kids said they fell asleep more than once a week while watching TV, listening to music or using other electronic products.

“This is very worrying，” said Dr. Chris Idzikowski，a British expert，“We call it ‘junk sleep’．It means you don’t get enough sleep and the quality of the sleep is bad, too. If you don’t get a good rest，you don’t perform well in school the next day.”

The survey found that 40% of the kids felt tired each day，with girls between 13 and 16 feeling the worst. Nearly all the teenagers have a cellphone，an iPad or a TV in their bedrooms. And many of them have all the three.
