21、Teens are gaining(增加) weight. Today most teenagers are at least one size larger than teens were 20 years ago. Even clothing sizes have changed. Did you know that a small today used to be a medium 20 years ago?

A recent research shows 97% of teens need more exercise. It’s bad news because too little exercise means you are missing a lot of good things in life. Exercise helps in two ways.

First, exercise helps your body. Physical activity can make your body strong. It can also keep you at a healthy weight. Doctors say that people who stay at a healthy weight have fewer health problems.

Second, exercise can help your mind. People who get plenty of physical activity might worry less and sleep better at night. You may even learn better in school. Students who are healthy can listen and understand better in class.

You can change your life and be more active at any point. It’s never too late. An article called How to Limit Screen Time and Get Moving gives these ideas:

Stay away from the screen. Doctors call watching TV or playing video games screen time. You should have no more than two hours of screen time a day. You will enjoy life more if you live it instead of watching it!

Start slowly. An hour a day can seem like a long time. Start with 10 minutes of new activities every day. Add more as you get stronger. Think about walking. Take the stairs instead of the lift. You will feel healthier.

Make fitness fun. Find a sport you like. It doesn’t need to be the traditional sports of basketball, soccer, or baseball. Those are all great sports and if you like them, play them. However, you can also try hiking, skateboarding, or even rope jumping. If you enjoy the sport, you will do it.

Choose food carefully. Help your family shop for healthy food. Read the labels(标签). Look for healthy food. Eat lots of fruits and vegetables. Stop buying soft drinks and junk foods. You will feel better if you eat right.

Exercise with others. Find a friend or family member to exercise or play with you. You will have more fun and it helps keep you responsible for going.

22、   What can be both red or green, round or sharp, big or small, and more importantly, loved or hated by someone? Yes, the answer is chilies. Humans eat chilies even though they sometimes cause us discomfort.

About 600 million of Chinese, almost half of the national population, are chili eaters. However, did you know that this spicy（辣的）vegetable could put you in danger? A 34-year-old US man recently ended up in hospital after eating a Carolina Reaper, the spiciest chili people have known so far. After taking just a single bite of one, the man suffered from serious headaches in the following days, reported BBC News.

It is a fact that rating spicy food causes stomachache and headache. But if chilies ae truly harmful, why do people like to eat this vegetable? So what makes people love chilies so much? The secret lies in a natural chemical reaction within human bodies. After eating chilies, the human body reacts to some natural chemicals that produce "a sense of happiness", noted BBC News.

What's more, chilies do good to people in another way. Scientists found that the death rate of those who eat spicy food once or twice a week is 10 percent lower than those who eat it less than once a week. The death rate is 14 percent lower for those who eat spicy food six to seven times a week. This encourages people to eat more spicy food to improve health and bring less death risk at an early age. So, don't worry if you love spicy food. It seems that chilies are actually good for us.

23、I have three children and I make them do housework. However, my mother-in-law (婆婆) doesn’t agree with me. She thinks I’m too harsh. In her opinion, parents shouldn’t be too strict with children. It is adults’ job to do housework.

I think our family is made up of five family numbers. No one in the family is more important than others, so each member should help with chores. I don’t ask my children to do the same chores, because their ages are different.

At the end of the day, after they finish playing with their toys, I ask them to put the toys away. If they don’t, they will have to say goodbye to their toys. I expect my children to set the table at night and help fold their own clothes. I don’t think I’m asking too much.

I know they are tired after a long day’s study at school, but that’s life—harsh but real. I don’t want to pay them for doing some chores. They live in the house, so they should help out with some things in the house. No one is going to pay them for cleaning up their rooms later in life and I’m not about to start doing it now.

Some parents protect their children too much from anything unpleasant (使人不愉快的) and make their children’s lives too comfortable and safe, but I’m not interested in that way. I hope my children are able to look after themselves and can be independent early.

【4】If her children don’t put away their toys, the writer ________.

A．won’t give the children pocket money

B．will ask her mother-in-law to do it
