任务型阅读

    Billy Smith loves water. His hobbies are swimming and diving (潜水). And he likes golf too. Billy's a very lucky man because his interests are part of his job.

    Billy lives in the USA with his wife, Linda. They got married ten years ago. At that time, Billy worked in an office in New York. He worked with computers. He worked five days a week, from eight in the morning to seven in the evening. He hated his job. There was no time for diving or golf. Linda worked in a shop and she didn't like her boss (老板). She hated the cold winters in New York too. So Billy and Linda decided to leave their jobs in New York and buy a house in Florida. The weather is fantastic in Florida. The days are sunny and hot.

    Now Billy goes diving every day and he goes to golf courses (球场) every day. But he doesn't play golf very much—he works at the golf course. He travels around Florida and he goes to lots of different golf courses. Sometimes Linda goes with him and sometimes she stays at home. There are lakes on many golf courses and Billy only goes to golf courses with lakes. Players often hit their golf balls into the water.

    In his new job, Billy dives in the lakes for these golf balls. On some days, Billy collects two thousand golf balls. Linda has an office in their home and she works there. She sells the lost golf balls that Billy finds. For golfers, they are cheaper than new golf balls.

    Both Billy and Linda are very happy now.

    It seems like every time you turn around, someone is talking about dieting. During gym class your best friend always complains about her "big" hips and how she's going on a diet to get rid of them. This focus on weight and dieting may leave you wondering whether you need to go on a diet yourself.

    The truth is that not all teens who diet actually need to lose weight. Because teens are still growing, dieting can sometimes be harmful to their developing bodies. Other teens may mistakenly think that in order to be in top form for their chosen sport, they need to be as thin as possible.

    The best person to see when you have a question about dieting is your doctor. Your doctor can help you determine what is a healthy weight for your body size and shape. He or she can help you decide whether you need to be on a diet at all.

    There are healthy and unhealthy ways to lose weight, and in the long run you are better off taking the healthy route. If you and your doctor do decide that going on a diet is the right thing for you, he or she can help you come up with a plan.

    Even without seeing your doctor, you can make smart food choices that will keep you healthy. Instead of chewing (嚼) down on chips when you get home from school, try a piece of fruit or some vegetables.

    Simple low—fat substitutions (替代品) can make a huge difference in your calorie intake as well. For example, skim or low—fat milk or water are better drink choices when you're thirsty—soda and fruit drinks are loaded with calories and sugar and short on nutrition (营养).

    Another thing to keep in mind is that exercise can help you feel and look better. Regular exercise tones your muscles while you burn calories and fat, and it makes you look slimmer. Remember that toning up takes time. Running the mile in gym class once a year won't make a difference in overall weight loss, so start slowly and work up to it.

    Whether you go on a diet or not, exercising and healthy eating are excellent ways to keep your body in great shape Cutting down on the time you spend in front of the computer or TV can help you boost your activity level and may even help you snack less. And research shows that people who exercise regularly are more likely to maintain their new weight if they've lost weight. So, get moving and keep your health on track!
