  Are you carrying too much on your back at school? You’re not alone.Back experts in the United States are worried that young students are having back and neck problems as a result of carrying too much in their backpacks(schoolbags).

  “It hurts my back when I run,” said Oberlin Reyes, a student in Virginia.“It’s hard to get up the stairs with my backpack, because it’s too heavy.”

  Oberlin is among students whose backpacks were weighed for a week in a recent study.

  They had regular backpacks with two straps(带子)to carry them, but a number of students with heavy loads had switched to rolling backpacks(which have wheels and can roll on the ground).

  Shirley Park, whose backpack weighed 10 kilograms, said she changed to a rolling backpack because she was starting to have back pain.

  How much is too much? Experts say students should carry no more than 10 to 15 percent of their own body weight.

  A few students had one suggestion to lighten the load:less homework.

  P.S.(附)Doctor’s suggestion:

  ① Lighten the load.Clean out binders(活页材料)and take home only the books you need that night.

  ② Wide straps are better.They send out the weight over your shoulders more evenly(均匀).And be sure to wear both straps rather than hanging the pack over one shoulder.

  ③ Pack smart.The heavier things should be packed closed to the back.

  ④ Bend both knees when you pick up the pack, and don’t just bend over at the waist(腰).

Today there are 6 billion people on the earth. By the year 2050 there may be 12.5 billion. This means we need more food.

One way to produce more food is by growing stronger plants. For thousands of years, farmers have made plants better. Every season, they pick the best plants for the next season. It works very slowly. Since 1983, scientists have been able to change plants more quickly by changing their genetic material (遗传物质). Foods from plants grown in this way are called genetically modified foods (转基因食品), or GM foods.

By changing the genetic material of a plant, it is possible to make new plants. They make plants which are strong against plant diseases. They can also help in our diseases: a kind of rice is being prepared (准备), for example, which stops people from becoming blind.

Rich countries produce GM food because they are easy to grow and bring in more money. Poor countries are interested in them because they help produce more food.

GM plants are not natural. No one knows how good or bad they are. Making GM foods is only one way of feeding people in 2050. There are strong feelings against them, because they are unnatural. They may feed people, then hurt them or their children later. But, both rich and poor countries are very interested in their use, and they are not going to go away. In 2050 we may think differently about them.

  Travel is fun and exciting, but it's not if you get sick.You may think,“Not me, I won't get sick on my vacation.”But for many people, that is what happens.

  A vacation is supposed to be a time for relaxing.But very often it is not.“What can I do when I am a tourist?”This is what we should often think about.Usually there are so many places to visit:museums, shops, parks and churches.You may spend most days walking around these places.This can be very tiring.Your feet may hurt.And you may have a terrible headache after a few hours.If this is what you feel, you should take a rest.Don't ask your body to do too much.A tired body means a weak body.And a weak body can make you get sick easily.Just sit down for a few hours in a nice spot.In good weather, look for a quiet park bench.Or you can rest at a café.You can learn a lot by watching people when you have a rest.

  Sleep is also important.If you want to stay healthy you need enough sleep.You may have trouble sleeping at night when you travel.Your hotel room may be noisy, or the bed may be uncomfortable.If that is true, don't be afraid to change rooms or hotels.You may not get enough sleep for another reason.You may want to stay out late at night.In many cities the night life can be very exciting.Then you should plan to sleep for an hour during the day.That extra hour can make a big difference.

  Finally, if you want to stay healthy, you must eat well.That means eating the right kinds of foods.Your body needs fresh fruit and vegetables, and some meat, milk or cheese.When you are in a new country you may want to try new foods but you need to be careful about how much you eat.Lots of rich food is not very good for you.
