A new study shows that many American children who eat lots of fried food are getting heavier, and they are more likely(可能) to have an unhealthy body. Many 13 to 16-year-old children were studied over the past three years. It was found that those children who ate more fried food got more weight than the normal kids.

Children who ate more fried food also ate fewer fruit and vegetables, and they ate fried food too often. If they keep their bad habits during their growing-up, the children will be heavier and perhaps be easier to get ill.

Everyone wants to be healthy. What and how should children eat then?

First, children should be encouraged to eat less fried food and to eat more healthy family dinner.

Second, parents should teach their children to choose healthier food when eating out, and help them have a well-balanced diet to keep fit.

Third, children should eat regularly(規(guī)則地). It’s said that half of the children don’t eat a regular breakfast or any food in the morning. In fact, a good breakfast can keep the body strong and help children not to overeat later in the day.

And at last, food must be cleaned and cooked properly.

As a girl, I've spent a great deal of my time on earth concerned about my weight. So I do know something about exercise. Let me tell you about the calorie-burning activities I've tried or will try.
Salsa (薩爾薩舞)
I try to maintain my weight through dancing. Dancing improves my coordination and sense of rhythm in addition to burning calories. I'm personally interested in salsa, which I find sexy and expressive(有表現(xiàn)力的). But I have not yet to start classes, because classes are very expensive, and I cannot find a dance partner.
Ping-Pong
Ping-pong is the national sport of China, so how could I know nothing about it?
My father is a ping-pong fan, and a really good player. He's won several informal (非正式的) matches. My relationship with ping-pong has always been on-and-off. I'll get into it for a while, and then lose interest. The reason is because I can’t find a good partner. Some stronger can depress you, while someone weaker (or just as weak) can make the game boring.
Tae Kwon Do （跆拳道）
I've recently decided to try tae kwon do as my regular exercise activity. There’s a story behind this choice: A few weeks ago, I was sitting on a bus, concentrating on a book. Suddenly, the bus became very quiet except for the sound of a woman’s crying. I looked up to see what had happened and overheard whispers that she had just quarreled with a man, and the man slapped(拍打) her face. No one on the bus dared say anything because the man looked really strong. Even now I feel ashamed I was among the silent.
That’s why I've made up my mind to learn something that will help me protect others and myself.
