    Breakfast cereals(谷类早餐食物) are popular in many countries. In the USA, they are served in nine out of ten homes. They are made from grains(谷物)such as corn, wheat and rice. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}

    In the beginning, cereals were healthy food. In the late 1800s, some doctors in the USA made them in hospitals and gave them to their patients. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} However, this soon changed, and from the 19305, some companies began to add sugar to their cereals and sell them as children's food. They made a lot of money this way, but they weren't healthy food anymore. These days some children s cereals are 50% sugar {#blank#}3{#/blank#}

    This is how cereal in different shapes, like stars and balls is made

    First, the grain is taken to the factory, where it is cleaned and checked.

    Then it is prepared for cooking. It is made into flour(粉) and mixed with other ingredients(原料){#blank#}4{#/blank#}

    When it is soft, it is put into special machines which make it into shapes like stars, circles or even letters.

    The shapes are baked（烘烤） in an oven to dry them. Then they are "puffed "in another machine to make them light and full of air.

    Welcome to Youth Radio, your radio. Here we're proud to introduce three Amazing Kids.

    Gina, who is thirteen years old, got first prize in the "Young Cook of the Year" competition and she wants to write a recipe book for kids. "I want it to be fun to read and easy enough for children tousle," she says. Gina learned by watching her father, who's also good at cooking, in the kitchen. She wants to encourage other children to cook because "everyone needs to eat so it's a skill that will always be useful!" Seventeen-year-old Brian used to love running until he was hurt in a serious accident three years ago.  He lost part of one leg and didn't even expect to walk again Now he's an athlete who has recently taken part in a long race. "After my accident I wanted to give up," he says. "But now I'm happy to be alive and able to continue running." Helen has always been good at science, but she thought it was too difficult to become an inventor.

    Then she heard about an accident that had happened when a car hit a train in her town. "That gave me an idea," says the clever sixteen-year-old. It took her over a year to invent a small special machine that tells car drivers when a train is coming. One company is already interested in selling it, so it maybe in the shops soon!

    Do you know a child like them? Please e-mail us at amazing kids@ maid. com and tell us why her she should be on our radio. Thank you.
