Once upon a time there was a wise man that used to go to the ocean to do his writing. He had a habit of walking on the beach before he began his work.
One day he was walking along the shore. As he looked down the beach, he saw a human figure moving like a dancer. He smiled to himself at the thought that someone would dance on the beach. So he began to walk faster to catch up.
As he got closer, he saw that it was a young man and the young man wasn’t dancing, but instead he was reaching down to the shore, picking up something and very gently throwing it into the ocean.
As he got closer he called out, ―Good morning! What are you doing?‖ The young man paused, looked up and replied, ―Throwing starfish(星鱼) in the ocean.‖ ―I guess I should have asked, why are you throwing starfish in the ocean?‖
―The sun is up and the tide is going out. And if I don’t throw them in, they’ll die.‖
―But, young man, don’t you realize that there are miles and miles of beach and starfish all along it. You can’t possibly make a difference!‖
The young man listened politely. Then he bent down, picked another starfish, and threw it into the sea, past the breaking waves and said, ―It made a difference for that one.‖
There is something very special in every one of us. We all have the ability to make a difference. And if we can know that talent, we will get the power to create the future through the strength of our visions（远见） .

Food has experienced many changes with the development of science and technology. At the same time, many new secrets about food have been found. Today, nutrition(营养) plays a very important role in the way that it affects our eating habits. No longer do most people just eat to live.
There are six main nutrition groups. To prevent stomach disorders(紊乱) and other similar problems, one has to try to have balanced meals that include as many food groups as possible. This will lead to a balanced diet.
Keep away from fatty food, fried food and food with additives(添加剂), as these do not help digestion (消化). Similarly, too much salt or sugar is harmful and the advantages that food normally provides are lost. Every kind of food plays a small part in health. Anything that is too little or too much would affect the balance of the body and its system.
A good, balanced diet would ideally have a controlled amount of fat, sugar, salt and meat, with plenty of fruit, vegetables, wholegrain (全谷物)products, low fat or normal fat dairy products(奶类产品), as well as good fat, such as fish, nuts and vegetable oil, along with fat-free meat. Last but not least, check the calorie of the food. There is a lot of nutritional information available about the content of food and its calorific value. Following a guide and eating your way to good health will make you feel wonderful.
46. Why is nutrition considered more and more important nowadays? A. Because people are paying more attention to their health. B. Because nutrition is divided into different groups. C. Because people want to be thinner. D. Because people want to have fewer calories.
47. Which of the following types of food is good for a person with a stomach disorder? A. Fatty food B. Food with additives C. Fried food D. Wholegrain products.
48. We know from the text that if we add too much sugar to our food,_______. A. we shall get less nutrition B. we can have good digestion C. we shall get fewer food-related problems D. we shall get fat and ill
49. All of the following suggestions are mentioned EXCEPT that ____. A. we should eat as many food groups as possible B. we should not eat a lot of fried food C. which food has additives D. eating too little or too much is not good for the health. 50. What is the text mainly about? A. What kind of food is good for the health. B. What a healthy balanced diet is. C. How to be a good cook.
