Until two weeks ago, sixth graders could be found playing football. Recess(课间休息)was a time to play, learn, and exercise. Then, football was banned for being “too dangerous”. Now you'll find us lying on the grass and wishing for something to fill our time with.

Football is a good source of exercise. The TIME for Kids article, “Fighting Fat in Kids,”talks about different ways to fight obesity(肥胖).1.We need football so we don't grow up to be unhealthy and get diseases like diabetes or heart disease.

2.With big teams it doesn't leave anyone out like other games Just picture it: Every child in sixth grade can be invited to play together! Whether you are a great player or a beginner, there is always a place for you on the team!

Some people think football is only for boys.3.Out of 25 kids, including boys and girls, all will say they want to play football. Even my mom and sister love to play. This shows that football is a valuable part of recess and should not be banned.

Football helps us learn important things.4.Sometimes during the game both teams argue because they think they should get the point. This gives kids a chance to work out their problems on their own and make a solution.

Please allow football again at recess.5.We will get more exercise, we will build community, and we will learn important skills. These are lessons we need, and as long as we are careful, we can be safe. Please take the football ban away and let us play again.

A. In fact, that's not true.

B. We will be healthier, stronger kids if you do.

C. For example, we can learn to solve problems.

D. Football is a game that everyone can participate in.

E. These are the basic football rules for school children.

F.One of the reasons kids get fat is because they don't get enough exercise.

G. Football is a dangerous sport with injuries happening frequently to the head.

In October, Ubayd Steed, a sixth grader in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, was taking a math test when he noticed a classmate looking at his paper. " I quickly turned my paper over," he said. Later that day, Ubayd met the cheater and told him not to do it again.

Unfortunately, Ubayd' s experience is not unusual. Whether it's kids copying class -mates' answers during tests or friends sharing homework, cheating happens in schools every day. Experts say the behavior starts in the lower grades. Surveys show that one in three elementary students admits to cheating.

Jacob Harder, a fourth grader in Ware, Massachusetts, has had classmates ask to copy his homework. "I wouldn't want to just tell them the answers," he says. So instead, he explains the task and encourages his classmates to do it themselves.

But many kids find it hard to say no. "l hear from kids all the time, ' I can' t say no to a friend,'" says Eric Anderman, a professor at The Ohio State University who studies cheating in school. He says it' s important to say no from the start. "Then you nip it in the bud, and the other kid gets the message," he says. Plus, he points out, "a real friend is not going to disown you because he or she couldn't copy your math homework."

The kids doing the copying may feel they need to cheat to be accepted by other kids. And some students may cheat simply because others do. "If you' re in an atmosphere where cheating is common, you may think that if you don' t cheat, you' re at a disadvantage," says Michael Josephson, founder of the Josephson Institute of Ethics.

But Josephson says students shouldn't think that way. "There are a lot of things kids do," he says. "You have to decide what kind of person you' re going to be."

When school becomes too challenging, Anderman suggests going to the teacher rather than relying on the work of others. "It' s good to ask for help," he says.

1.Ubayd' s experience serves as a(n) __________

A. explanation　 B. introduction

C. comment　　　　 D. background

2.We learn from the text that cheating in elementary school _________.

A. results from difficult tasks

B. is popular among students

C. mainly happens during tests

D. is unusual in lower grades

3.The underlined part "nip it in the bud" in Paragraph 4 probably means _________.

A. face the difficulty it caused

B. realize its disadvantages

C. stop it at an early stage

D. make it disappear

4.Who advises kids to turn to teachers for help when they fall behind in studies'?

A. Ubayd Steed.　　　　　　　 B. Jacob Harder.

C. Eric Anderman.　　　　　　 D. Michael Josephson.

At a school in North Carolina, Monica Mitchell-Giraudo, a French teacher, instructs 19 sixth-graders to gather into a circle.

“Okay, everyone, let's take a few mindful breaths, and think about our gratitude (感激) for Amy, who brought us apples for snack today,” says Monica. “What do you notice?”

“I notice my stomach is already growling (做隆隆声),” laughs Ben.

“My mouth is watering,” says David.

Next, the students hold and examine the apples. They pick up the fruit and feel it. Then they bring the apples to their noses, using their sense of smell to enjoy the flowery smell of their snack before taking the first juicy bites.

“Excellent, class,” says Monica. “Before you eat the apple, ask yourself whether or not you're hungry. Remember, you don't have to eat if your body isn't giving you a hunger signal.”

These students are learning a practice called “Mindful Eating”, which builds the children's awareness (意识) of important physical signals like hunger and fullness.

The positive feedback from the children shows how much these newly learned life skills are helping them.

“Mindful eating helps me think about the food that goes into my body,” says Jamie, a student in Monica's class. “I can make better and healthier food choices.”

Unfortunately, these kinds of courses are in short supply because many educators believe that social and emotional programs are too expensive or time-consuming (耗时的). To save costs and reduce staffing problems, prevention programs like The Body Positive are brought into the schools. The program teaches a series of self-exploration exercises that help educators examine their feelings and attitudes about food so that they can pass on these messages to their students, too.

Kathy Laughlin, director of counseling at San Domenico High School, is a fan of the training. “Since we began the program, I have not seen as many girls with problems related to body hatred,” she says. “Mindful eating practice is one of the best ways to help students develop a healthy mind and body connection — one which will help them for years to come.”

1.What did Monica ask her students to do as soon as they were gathered?

A. Express thanks to Amy.

B. Feel a need for the food.

C. Share their eating experiences.

D. Think about the state of hunger.

2.What's the purpose of The Body Positive?

A. To stop eating disorders.

B. To train educators in mindful eating.

C. To change students' attitudes towards eating.

D. To create present moment awareness when eating.

3.What is Kathy's opinion on the emotional program?

A. It is a waste of time.

B. It is hardly practical.

C. It costs a lot of money.

D. It has long-term significance.
