    Let's say you've decided you want to eat more healthfully. However, you don't have time to carefully plan menus for meals or read food  at the supermarket. Since you really yourself to a healthier lifestyle, a little help would come in handy, wouldn't it? This is where a "choice architect" can help_some of the burden of doing it all yourself. Choice architects are people who organize the contexts in which customers make decisions. For example, the person who decides the layout of your local supermarket-including which shelf the peanut butter goes on, and how the oranges are piled up—is a choice architect.

    Governments don't have tohealthier lifestyles through laws  for example, smoking bans. Rather, if given an environment created by a choice architect-one that encourages us to choose what is best-we will do the right things. In other words, there will be designs that gently push customers toward making healthier choices, without removing freedom of choice. This idea combines freedom to choose withhints from choice architects, who aim to help people live longer, healthier, and happier lives.

    The British and Swedish governments have introduced a so-called "traffic light system" to foods as healthy or unhealthy. This means that customers can see at a glance how much fat, sugar, and salt each product containsby looking at the lights on the package. A green light _that the amounts of the three nutrients are healthy; yellow indicates that the customer should be; and red means that the food is high in at least one of the three nutrients and should be eaten in . The customer is given important health information, but is still free to decide what to choose.

A Night The Earth Didn't Sleep

    On July 28, 1976, a magnitude 7.8 earthquake hit the sleeping city of Tangshan in northeastern China. ⑪The very large earthquake killed over 240, 000people, making it the deadliest earthquake of the twentieth century.

    In a village outside of Tangshan, well water rose and fell three times the day before the earthquake. Water pipes throughout the area cracked and     ①    . Animals also gave a warning that something was about to happen. Chickens and pigs were too nervous to eat. Mice ran around looking for a place to     ②    . A goldfish began jumping wildly in its bowl. Stranger Indeed. Many people reported seeing strange lights as well as hearing    ③     , which was described as louder than that of an airplane.

    At 3:42 a. m. on July 28, over a million people lay sleeping.  As the earth began to shake, it seemed as if the world was     ④    . One-third of the nation felt it. In fifteen terrible seconds a large city lay in     ⑤    . Two-thirds of people died or were     ⑥    during the earthquake. ⑫Everywhere they looked nearly everything was destroyed. All of the city's hospitals, 75%of its factories and buildings and 90% of its homes were gone.     ⑦     were faced with no water, no food, and no electricity. People were shocked. Then, later that afternoon, another big quake which was almost as strong as the first one shook Tangshan. Some of the     ⑧    workers and doctors were trapped under the ruins.

    All hope was not lost. Soon after the quakes, the army sent 150, 000 soldiers and thousands of people were helped.
