Weight loss is a hard topic. Lots of people aren’t satisfied with their present weight, but most people aren’t sure how to change it. You may want to look like the models or actors in magazines

or on TV, but those goals might not be healthy or realistic(现实的) for you . 71 So what should you do about your weight control?

72 The best way to find out if you are at a healthy weight or if you need to lose or gain weight is to talk to a doctor or dietitian【营养学家). 73 If it turns out that you can benefit from weight loss then you can follow a few of the simple suggestions listed below to get started.

74 People who lose weight quickly by crash dieting or other extreme measures usually gain back all of the pounds they lost, because they haven’t permanently(永久地) changed their habits. Therefore, the best weight management ways are those that you can maintain for a lifetime.

Small changes are a lot easier to stick with(坚持做) than large ones. Try reducing the size of what you eat. 75 Once you have that down, start gradually introducing healthier foods and exercise into your life.

It’s a good idea to maintain a healthy weight because it’s just that: healthy.

B．Weight management is about long-term success.

书面表达：

The students of Class 3 had a discussion about whether it is necessary to start learning English from childhood . Some of them think that English learning should start from childhood . As little boys and girls have a very good memory ,they can learn a lot of English words by heart . This will help them lay a solid foundation for their future English learning . But others do not agree . Young children have to learn Chinese pinyin at school . If they study Chinese pinyin and English at the same time , it will be very easy for them to mix them up . This will do a lot of harm not only to

their Chinese learning but also to their future English learning . In short , the students have not arrived at any agreement yet .
