Rhiannon Lambert, who treats about 180 clients a year with various kinds of eating disorders, says the number of those caused by "clean eating" {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (double) in the past three years. "They develop particular habits, or won't eat food when walking, because they think that food can only be eaten when they {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (seat)," she said.

    Clean eating is promoted by some food bloggers, who are increasingly thought by a number of medical experts to be having a bad influence on young people today. "Young people lose this and cannot afford the lifestyle needed to follow it," Lambert said. Health bloggers {#blank#}3{#/blank#} not have enough knowledge but offer dangerous advice. These people are now role models {#blank#}4{#/blank#} word will inspire young people. I have clients who think they have to be a strict vegetarian to be successful. The extreme form of this is known as orthorexia nervosa (健康食品强迫症).

    Ursula Philpot, a dietitian at the British Dietetic Association, said, "It is difficult to blame them completely. If it weren't the bloggers, then it could be {#blank#}5{#/blank#} else. Orthorexia affects more girls than boys, although boys are much more affected than girls." Philpot said, "At the top of most people's lists of bad foods includes gluten (麸质) and dairy. {#blank#}6{#/blank#} you talk to young people more, you will find some of them worry all day about eating a biscuit."

    The condition starts out as an attempt {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (eat) more healthily, but those who experience it fully focus on food quality and purity. "There may be several reasons for someone to take up clean eating," Philpot said. "Eating disorders are serious mental illnesses and their causes are complex. Research is telling us that they may be more biologically based than we thought, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} social and environmental factors also play a part in their development."

    Deanne Jade, the founder of the National Centre for Eating Disorders, said, "A lot of young people don't think they need treatment and there are too many messages in the media. What worries me is that a lot of people {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (promote) these ideas have no knowledge of nutrition. I don't know what the solution is, but in many cases, getting people to recover from an eating disorder means {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (get) them to relax their ideas about clean eating."

On keeping a diary in English

    Keeping a diary in English is one of the effective ways to improve our English writing ability.

    {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (compare) with other forms of writing, it is shorter and takes {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (little) time. It can help us to develop the habit of thinking in English.

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#} we keep practising, gradually we'll learn how to express ourselves in English. On keeping a diary in English, we certainly meet with many {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (difficult).

    Firstly, {#blank#}5{#/blank#} often happens that we have trouble {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (find) appropriate words and phrases to give expression to our mind.

    Secondly, there are many idiomatic ways of saying things in Chinese. And it is extremely hard for us to put them into English properly.

    As far as I {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (concern), my suggestion is that we should always have a notebook and a Chinese­English dictionary within easy reach. Whenever we meet with something that we don't know how to express in English, we can first put it {#blank#}8{#/blank#} in our notebook and then refer to our dictionary. We can also turn to our English teacher for help, if necessary. In short, I believe that it is very {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (use) to keep a diary in English for {#blank#}10{#/blank#} development of our writing skills.

    It was a short flight from Shanghai to Xi'an. Xi'an is one of the four great ancient capitals of China {#blank#}1{#/blank#} a history of over 3,100 years. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (date) from the Ming Dynasty, its ancient walls are the best preserved in the world. There are bicycles for people to hire. It is {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (amaze) to ride along the walls to survey this fascinating city.

    The Tang Dynasty Music and Dance show is not to be missed, but my favorite is an art gallery, {#blank#}4{#/blank#} we can enjoy some beautiful artwork and learn how to write Chinese characters.

    Most visitors make their way to Xi'an to see the life-size terracotta warriors (兵马俑) and we were not {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (difference) at all. The collection, which shows the armies of the first Emperor of China, {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (remain) hidden until 1974 when they were discovered by a farmer digging a well. Walking among the statues {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (forbid) unless you are a VIP ­ but there are plenty of souvenir shops in which {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (tourist) can buy the replicas (复制品) of them.

    All too soon it was time {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (leave). I really enjoyed my stay in Xi'an. It is indeed a place of interest worth {#blank#}10{#/blank#} second visit.

    From The Reader to National Treasure, TV programs seeking to take advantage {#blank#}1{#/blank#}Chinese audience's growing interest in traditional culture had a great year in 2017.

    During a time {#blank#}2{#/blank#} hiring famous pop stars and using silly gimmicks (噱头) have become major trends in drawing younger Chinese viewers, no one ever expected that these slow-paced and serious shows focused on Chinese tradition and culture would {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (accept) so widely. But the fact is that shows like Chinese Poetry Conference and Letters Alive quickly climbed to {#blank#}4{#/blank#} top of the national TV ratings. The popularity of this type of program shows that many Chinese {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (be) eager to learn more about traditional culture.

    While Letters Alive and The Reader invite people from all walks of life {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (read) letters, essays or poems written by respectable writers and other great people, National Treasure focuses on the {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (attract) stories and history behind national-level cultural relics (遗物).

    One reason for these shows' being {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (huge) successful might be their human focus. Literary works {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (share) in these shows talk about real life and they also appeal to regular viewers rather than just literature lovers. Though National Treasure focuses on introducing ancient {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (treasure), it focuses more on the human stories behind them.

    On the afternoon of 11 March 2011, Tetsu Nozaki watched helplessly as a wall of water {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(crash) into his boats in Onahama, a small fishing port on Japan's Pacific coast.

    {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(spend) the past eight years rebuilding, the Fukushima fishing fleet is now confronting yet another menace — the increasing likelihood {#blank#}3{#/blank#} the nuclear plant's operator, Tokyo Electric Power (TEPCO), will dump huge quantities of radioactive water into the ocean.

    "We strongly oppose any plans to discharge the water into the sea," Nozaki, head of Fukushima prefecture's federation of fisheries cooperatives, told the Guardian.

    Currently, just over one million tonnes of contaminated water is held in almost 1, 000 tanks at Fukushima Daiichi, but the utility has warned that it will run out of space by the summer of 2022.

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(release) the wastewater into the sea would also anger South Korea, adding to pressure on diplomatic ties.

    Seoul, which has yet to lift an import ban on Fukushima seafood {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(introduce) in 2013, claimed last week that discharging the water would pose a "grave threat" {#blank#}6{#/blank#} the marine environment — a charge rejected by Japan.

    Japanese Government officials say they won't make a decision {#blank#}7{#/blank#} they have received a report from an expert panel, but there are strong indications that dumping is preferred over other options {#blank#}8{#/blank#} vaporising, burying or storing the water indefinitely.

    Critics say the government is reluctant {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(support) the dumping option for fear of creating fresh controversy over Fukushima during the Rugby World Cup,{#blank#}10{#/blank#} starts this week, and the buildup to the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.

    It's difficult to say exactly when IWD(International Women's Day) began. It dates back to 1908, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} 15,000 women marched through New York City demanding voting rights, better pay and {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(short) working hours.

    A year later, the first National Woman's Day {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(allow) in the US on February 28, according to an announcement by the Socialist Party of America.

    In 1910, a woman {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(call) Clara Zetkin—leader of the "women's office" for the Social Democratic Party in Germany came up with the idea of International Women's Day. She suggested that every country {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (celebrate) International Women's Day on one day every year to push for their demands.

    A meeting of more than 100 women from 17 {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(country) agreed to her suggestion and IWD was formed. In 1911, it was celebrated for {#blank#}7{#/blank#} first time in Austria, Denmark, Germany and Switzerland {#blank#}8{#/blank#} March 19.

    In 1913, it was decided {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(change) IWD to March 8, and it has been celebrated on that day ever since. The day was only recognized by the United Nations in 1975. It {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(create) a theme (主题) each year for the celebration ever since.
