A. TV makes kids overweight.
B. TV makes kids stupid.
C. Disadvantages of watching TV.
D. TV helps kids get to sleep.
E. TV makes kids violent.
F. Wrong ideas of television’s effect on children.
.______________
The average American child spends three to five hours a day watching TV. In 1961, the average child began to watch tel however, today it is nine months. Yet, most parents think that television has bad influence on their children. For example, in the early 1970s, my parents believed that my bad eyesight was the result of sitting too close to the screen, and they therefore made my stay at least six feet from it. Today, most people have no such worry, but many new ridiculous (荒谬的) sayings have appeared:
. ______________
Many children watch more educational programs when they are pre-schoolers. When they grow up, they can read more books and have much better ideas to solve difficult problems than other children.
. _______________
& &The real story is not so simple. Hundreds of studies show that watching violence on TV makes children more aggressive (好斗的). But a study of over 5,000 children also finds that some positive programs make children kinder. The problem is that kids are increasingly watching shows with violence（暴力）instead of those suitable for their age.
. _______________
An experiment finds that when children watch less television, they
however, reducing their television time does not make them more active. The real problem lies in snacking (吃零食). A wide spread habit for kids, and junk-food advertisements.
. _______________
& &&The opposite is true. The more television children watch, the more likely they are to have bad sleep habits. Allowing kids to watch television is part of the problem, not the solution.

It`s very important to keep your hair healthy.Here are five ways for you.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Good fats are also called necessary fatty acids which the body can`t produce naturally.Eating these types of fats will help improve healthy skins, nails, teeth, and hair.They can be found in the form of oil, or in food such as seeds, nuts.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Hair is nothing more than dead protein(蛋白质).But that doesn`t mean that it is not important.A lack of it can cause slow growth and thinning, where on the contrary, getting enough amounts can help growth.Good choices to include in the diet would be eggs, meats, tofu, fish and beans.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
There are a handful of vitamins that have been known to be effective for healthy hair.Some of them include vitamins A,B,Cand E, and iron.Other than in extra form, these nutrients can also be found naturally in fruits, peppers, low-fat diary products, green vegetables and whole grains.A large salad can be made with the inclusion of a lot of these food.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Getting enough exercises can help improve hair growth.Aim to get at least 20-30 minutes of exercise ever day.It can be walking, jogging, weight training, and biking .
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Right after you brush your teeth, brush your hair as well.Brushing hair fifty hundred strokes before bed can help remove pollutants and dirt while also stimulating circulation.Also, natural oils are released which will add more sheen(光泽) and oxygen to your hair.

. Most people like sunbathing, but how many realize how dangerous the sun can be? If you want to sunbathe, it is important to realize the danger, and to follow a few simple rules to protect yourself.
. First of all, the sun can make your skin drier and thicker. If the sun shines directly on your skin for a long time, you will soon start to look older than you actually are. But even if you don’t mind looking old, you should note that ultraviolet rays (紫外线)from the sun can seriously hurt your skin.
. If you are going to sunbathe, there are several things you have to be careful about. If you don’t protect yourself, you may develop skin cancer. Research suggests that two weeks of sunbathing a year will increase the chance of getting some kind of skin cancer. And skin cancer is a serious disease that cannot always be cured.
. You are especially at risk if you have blond hair and fair skin. Skin color is very important when we are talking about the risk of skin cancer. If you have fair skin and red or fair hair, then you burn easily and are more at risk.
. If you must sunbathe, do at least take some precautions(防范措施):First of all, you should not spend too much time in the sun. You should always wear a hat and sunglasses to protect your face, especially your eyes, which are the most sensitive. You should always use a high factor sunscreen to keep away from the dangerous rays. It is better to sunbathe for ten minutes a day over two or three weeks than to stay in the sun for an hour each day for five days. Whatever you do, you should never stay in the sun between eleven in the morning and three in the afternoon, when the sun is the most dangerous.
A. Advice for sunbathers
B. Who is most at risk?
C. Most people don’t know the danger.
D. Are ultraviolet rays dangerous?
E. Sunbathing increases the chance of skin cancer.
F. Research about sunbathe.
