190. Bullying (欺凌弱小) is a big problem that affects lots of kids. Three-quarters of all kids say they have been bullied or teased. Being bullied can make kids feel really bad. The stress of dealing with bullies can make kids feel sick. Bullying can make kids not want to play outside or go to school. It’s hard to keep your mind on schoolwork when you’re worried about how you’re going to deal with the bully near your locker. Bullying bothers everyone—and not just the kids who are getting picked on. Bullying can make school a place of fear and can lead to more violence and more stress for everyone. Some bullies are looking for attention. They might think bullying is a way to be popular or to get what they want. Most bullies are trying to make themselves feel more important. When they pick on someone else, it can make them feel big and powerful. Sometimes bullies know that what they are doing or saying hurts other people. But other bullies may not really know how hurtful their actions can be. Most bullies don’t understand or care about the feelings of others. Bullies often pick on someone they think they can have power over. They might pick on kids who get upset easily or who have trouble sticking up for themselves. Sometimes bullies pick on someone who is smarter than they are or different from them in some way. Sometimes bullies just pick on a kid for no reason at all.

第三篇"Clean your plate!"and"Be a member of the clean-plate club!"Just about every kid in the US has heard this from a parent or grandparent. Often,it's accompanied by an appeal:"Just think about those starving orphans in Africa!"Sure,we should be grateful for every bite of food. Unfortunately,many people in the US take too many bites.Instead of staying"clean the plate",perhaps we should save some food for tomorrow.According to news reports,US restaurants are partly to blame for the growing bellies.A waiter puts a plate of food in front of each customer,with two to four times the amount recommended by the government,according to a USA Today story.Americans traditionally associate quantity with, value and most restaurants try to give them that.They prefer to have customers complain about too much food rather than too little.Barbara Rolls,a nutrition professor at Pennsylvania State University,told USA Today that restaurant portion sizes began to grow in the 1970s,the same time that the American waistline began to expand.Health experts have tried to get many restaurants to serve smaller portions.Now,apparently, some customers are calling for this too.The restaurant industry trade magazine QSR reported last month that 57 percent of more than 4,000 people surveyed believe restaurants serve portions that are too large;23 percent had no opinion;20 percent disagreed.But a closer look at the survey indicates that many Americans who can't afford fine dining still prefer large portions.Seventy percent of those earning at least ￥150,000 per year prefer smaller portions;but only 45 percent of those earning less than ￥25,000 want smaller.It's not that working class Americans don't want to eat healthy.It's just that,after long hours at lowpaying jobs,getting less on their plate hardly seems like a good deal.They live from paycheck to paycheck,happy to save a little money for next year's Christmas presents.Why do American restaurants serve large portions?A:Because Americans associate quantity with value.B:Because Americans have big bellies.C:Because Americans are good eaters.D:Because Americans are greedy.

问答题Practice 4 If ambition is to be well regarded, the rewards of ambition—wealth, distinction, control over one’s destiny—must be deemed worthy of the sacrifices made on ambition’s behalf. If the tradition of ambition is to have vitality, it must be widely shared, and it especially must be highly regarded by people who are themselves admired, the educated not least among them. In an odd way, however, it is the educated who have claimed to have given up on ambition as an ideal. What is odd is that they have perhaps most benefited from ambition, if not always their own then that of their parents and grandparents.
