Passage 112

(05·天津B篇)

Lack of parent willpower may contribute more to juvenile obesity than under-exercising or

overeating.

Research suggests that having overweight parents is a big, influence ( 影响) upon a child' s

weight, with one study finding that children with overweight parents were four times more likely to be overweight themselves.

The findings add heat to an already fierce political debate (争论) over childhood obesity. The Prime Minister, John Howard, last week decided that $116 million be Used for programs to deal with obesity, while the Opposition Leader, Mark Latham, recently announced that his party would move to protect children from unhealthy food advertisements..

Clare Colins a senior lecturer at the University of Newcastle, believes such programs will definitely fail unless they influence the way of life of whole families. "If we can' t get parents to take action against their own weight problems, then we can' t expect to influence their kids," she said.

However, Professor, Louise Baur from the Children’ s Hospital at Westmead, doubts whether

adult education programs offer any solution to weight problems. "Many parents know they need to lose weight and they knew it influences their kids, but they lack the willpower to do anything about it.

The, l0-year study of 150 American children found two-thirds of children with overweight parents became overweight. Only one in six children whose parents were of average weight became overweight.　

The president of the Australasian Society for the .Study of Obesity, Associate Professor Gary

Wittert, said parents needed help in doing their job and the Opposition Party’s policy(政策) might be on the right track.

"We know that driving without a seat belt is unsafe, so we make law against it,” he said.

"Obesity is a major public health concern, so why shouldn’t we change the law regarding unhealthy food ads?"

Passage 111

(05·天津A篇)

Everyone’s at it , even my neighbors. I thought I might be the only person left in the world who hadn't done an eBay deal. So, I decided to try my hand at online auction(网上拍卖).Buying for beginners: Sign up on www. ehay. co. uk. Most items ( e. g. tables, computers, and books) ready for auction will come with a picture and a short description; others may be marked with "Buy It Now" and have a fixed price. You can buy these right away.

　　 If the item is being auctioned, you offer the. highest price you are prepared to pay and eBay bids (出价') for you. The bid will be increased little by little until it goes beyond your highest bid, then you are emailed and asked if you would like to bid again. Auctions last up to 10 days and when they finish you get an email telling you whether you have won the item.

How to pay: Sellers decide how they would like to be paid and you need to check this before

placing a bid as you might not want to post a cheque or postal orders. The easiest way is through PayPal, an online payment system that takes the money away from your credit card (信用).

Selling made simple: If you plan to sell on eBay, it helps to include a picture of the item. I

followed my friends' advice and put up the items I wanted to sell for a 10-day auction, starring on a Thursday. This way buyers had two weekends to bid.

The big things in life: It' s easy to post a small item, but furniture is a big part of eBay and this

has to be collected or sent by deliverymen. Cheek the ways of delivery before you bid.
