food and water. Everyone has to pay to see real plants and animals in museums.

How does the world become like this? Well, technologies(F+#) came too fast in the past 50 years. Some were bad for the earth and people. This is really a good lesson for people in your time.

“Let’s go wrestling, Dad!”(《摔跤吧,爸爸!》) is one of the Top 10 movies. It tells a true story about an Indian man and his two daughters. His name’s Mahavir. In real life, he is called “the father of Indian women wrestling” because thousands of girls across India have been supported to take up wrestling with his efforts (努力).

A very famous Indian actor, Aamir Khan, played the role of Mahavir in the movie. In order to act well, he needed to put on weight to be very fat and then do sports to be very strong in a short time.

Aamir Khan started to eat a lot every day before making the movie. He ate at least 5 meals a day including much junk food. He became too fat to run quickly.

It is simple to be fat but difficult to be strong. Aamir Khan must eat less and drink more. Strength training(训练) is also important. This kind of physical training is very boring. He had to lift (举起) different weights and do it over and over again. In the end, Aamir Khan became the exact person the movie needs.
