"You are what you eat," goes an English saying. But actually, you are what you drink. Why? Because 75% of your body is water! 1. When we don't give our bodies enough water, our organs cannot work properly. We are also easier to catch a disease. When we are sick, drinking plenty of water should be one of the first things we do. 2.

Is your body asking for more water?

If you experience headaches, sleepiness, allergies or dizziness (头昏眼花), your body might be telling you to drink more water. 3.

Even problems such as nervousness or forgetfulness can be caused by lack of water. In addition, the medicines that treat these illnesses can sometimes dry out your body further. The more water you are lacking in, the worse your health will be-no matter how much medicine you take. 4.

How much water is enough for you?

Most experts suggest drinking at least 8-ounce glasses of water every day. However, if you weigh more than 128 pounds, you need even more water. Drink an extra glass of water for every 15 pounds of body weight.

Drink more water in the hot summer months and when you exercise to replenish (补充) the water loss through sweating. Caffeine makes your body lose water very quickly. So drink extra water if you drink beverages such as coffee, tea and soda.

Helpful tips

Try these tips to help yourself drink more water.

●Don't wait until you are thirsty to drink. 5.

●Plan to have enough water.

●Carry a bottle of pure water with you wherever you go.

●Don't hesitate by frequent trips to the toilet.

Drinking plenty of water can take as much time as you need and prevent serious illness in the future. So pour yourself a glass of water and drink up!

A. Drink water occasionally.

B. All kinds of drink will contribute to your health.

C. If you're thirsty, you're already lack of water.

D. Instead, we usually depend on drugs to make us well.

E. Lack of water may be the real reason for your sickness.

F. Therefore, it is important to listen to your body when it asks for a drink!

G. With this in mind, it's no surprise that drinking enough water is crucial for good health.

Healthy eating is not just what you eat, but how you eat. Here are some tips for you:

Eat with others whenever possible. Eating with other people has numerous benefits, especially for children. 1.　 Eating in front of the TV or computer often leads to mindless overeating.

Take time to chew(咀爵) your food and enjoy mealtime. 2. We tend to rush through our meals, forgetting to enjoy the flavor and feel the taste of what is in our mouths.

3. Ask yourself if you are really hungry, or have a glass of water to see if you are thirsty instead of hungry. During the meal, stop eating before you feel full. It actually takes a few minutes for your brain to tell your body that it has had enough food, so eat slowly.

4. A healthy breakfast can jumpstart your metabolism(新陈代谢), and eating small, healthy meals throughout the day (rather than the standard three large meals) keeps your energy up and your metabolism going.

Avoid eating at night. 5. And then don’t eat for 12-14 hours until breakfast the next morning. Studies suggest that eating only when you’re most active and giving your digestive(消化的) system a long break each day may help to keep fit.

A. Drink plenty of water.

B. Try to have dinner earlier.

C. Be careful when eating out.

D. Eat your food slowly, tasting every bite.

E. Listen to your body.

F. It allows you to follow others’ healthy eating habits.

G. Eat breakfast, and eat smaller meals throughout the day.

Even if you are an experienced backpacker or climber，you need to know what to do if something goes wrong．It is not that Alaska is that much more dangerous than other places．It is no more hazardous than elsewhere，as long as the proper precautions(预防措施)are taken．So, being prepared is crucial to ensure a safe trip．

First of all，make sure you pack everything you will need for your trip．Even if you are traveling by car，pack clothes and gear for backpacking．Because of the bad weather, cars break down frequently. Pack a survival(生存)kit full with：a down coat, boots ,mittens, a hat, snow-pants，sleeping bags，candles，a flashlight，and high-energy food. If you are traveling by car , also pack extra belts, a shovel, and a chain.

If you are camping or hiking，make sure you know how to avoid bears．If you are lost in the wilderness, there is no doubt you will encounter them.

However，there is no need to be nervous．Just take these precautions：make noise as you walk，bears will avoid you；cook your food away from where you sleep，and store your food away from where you sleep，so the bears are not attracted．Both of these should keep the bear away．However，if you do encounter a bear，there are two different schools of thought．One is to make noise and scare the bear away．The other is to stand still and speak softly to get the bear to leave．If you are dealing with a brown bear，you can climb a tree，since it cannot follow．But，black bears can climb．If for some reason the bear attacks，play dead．Try to protect your head and neck，and hopefully the bear will leave its“dead” prey.

EAT YOUR VEGETABLES.Wash your hands. Always say  “please” and “thank you”. We are full of advice for our children, but when it comes to money, we often have little to say. As a result, our children may grow up with clean hands and good manners, but without any idea how tomanage their money.

　Here are some basics that will help guide them their entire lives:

　Show them the future. If your 13-year-old girl were to save $1.000,invest(投资)it at 8% and add $100 every month, by the time she’s 65,she would have $980,983!

　Be careful of credit(信用).Credit cards can help you buy necessary things and build a credit history, but they must be used responsibly, which means paying off your debt in time. Explain to your children that when you buy something using a credit card, you can easily end up paying two or three times what you would have paid if you used cash.

　Teach patience. Suppose your child wants a new bicycle that costs $150.Rather than paying the cash, give him some regular pocket money and explain that by putting aside,say,$15 each week, he will be able to buy it for himself in only ten weeks.

　Provide incentive. Tell your children the importance of saving. “For every dollar he or she agrees to save and invest rather than spend, you agree to add another dollar to the pot,” says Cathy Pareto, expert in money planning.

　Explain your values. Values and money are deeply intertwined, says Eilleen Gallo,co-author of The Financially Intelligent Parent. When your child demands that you buy something, explain why you really don’t want to buy it.“You might say, ‘I’d rather save that money for your  education,’” advises Gallo. Every time you spend or don’t spend money, you have a chance to share your values.

You may have heard some respectable elders say, “It’s not what you want in this world, but what you get.”

Psychology teaches that you do get what you want if you know what you want and want the right things.

You can make a mental blueprint of a desire as you would make a blueprint of a house, and each of us is continually making these blueprints in the general routine of everyday living. If we intend to give a dinner for friends, we plan the menu, make a shopping list, and decide which food to cook first, and such planning is essential and necessary for any type of meal to be served.

Similarly, you can make a blueprint for your could-be-job, take a sheet of paper, and write a brief account of yourself. In making a blueprint for a job, begin with yourself, for when you know exactly what you have to offer, you can intelligently plan where to sell your service.

This account of yourself is actually a description of your working life and should include education, experience and references. Such an account is valuable. It can be referred to filling out standard application blanks and it is extremely helpful in personal interviews. While talking to you, your could-be employer is deciding whether your education, your experience and other qualifications will pay him to employ you, and your abilities must be displayed on an orderly and reasonably connected manner. When you have carefully prepared a blueprint of your abilities and desires, you have something exact to sell. Then you are ready to hunt for a job.

Get all the possible information about your could-be job. Make your eyes and ears open, and use your own judgment. Spend a certain amount of time each day seeking in the employment you wish for, and keep in mind: Obtaining a job is your job now!

1.When the elders say, “It’s not what you want in the world, but what you get”, they mean ______.

A. you will certainly get what you want

B. it’s no use dreaming but be practical

C. you should never be satisfied with what you have

D. it’s essential to be ambitious

2.The blueprint made before inviting a friend to dinner is used as______.

A. a set rule for job hunters

B. a suggestion on how to get a good job

C. an example of how to plan important things ahead

D. a guideline for a job description

3.In the passage, the author mainly intends to point out the importance of ____.

A. writing up a detailed plan for a job interview

B. keeping a blueprint of what you want to do

C. drawing a description of your working life

D. seeking the employment you want

When you say that someone has a good memory, what exactly do you mean? Are you saying that the person has fast recall or that he or she________ information quickly? Or maybe you just mean that the person remembers a lot about her or his childhood. The truth is that it is __________ to say exactly what memory is. Even scientists who have been studying memory for decades say they are still trying to ________ exactly what it is. We do know that a particular memory is not just one thing stored somewhere in the brain.________, a memory is made up of bits and pieces of information stored all over the brain.
