Today, many teenagers are overweight, and the reason of this is because of their bad eating habits. Most teenagers love fast food with a lot of fat, oil, salt and sugar. People often call this kind of food “junk food”.But bad eating habits go beyond fast food. We find many teenag ers eat unhealthily. Some don’t have breakfast before they go to school. During the day, some don’t have a proper meal for lunch. In a recent survey(调查) at one school, scientists found that over two thirds of the students didn’t follow a healthy diet. They didn’t like vegetables, and many of them didn’t like to eat fruits. They preferred(更喜欢) to eat food with a lot of salt, sugar, or fat.Parents toda y also worry about their children’s diet. Some doctors give the following advice:Teenagers shouldn’t eat too much junk food.Teenagers shouldn’t eat food with too much salt. Salt can cause high blood pressure(高血压)in the future.Teenagers should eat food with less fat, oil, and sugar.Teenagers need to eat some fruits and vegetables every day. Fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins(维生素)and have little fat.Teenagers need to drink more milk. Milk will help their bones grow.Teenagers need to eat breakfast every day. This is good for their body and mind.( )61.“Junk food” contains(包括)a lot of _____.A. milk and sugarB. fruits and sugarC. vegetables and saltD. fat, oil, salt and sugar ( )62.

Sports第Ⅱ卷（非选择题共65分）五、阅读表达（10分）Like many other students, nine-year-old Minnal went abroad(国外) with her parents during the recent(最近的)school holidays. She climbed a mountain.For eight days in May, Minnal hiked nearly 100 kilometres to reach the 5364-metre-high Everest(珠穆朗玛峰) base camp in Nepal. The girl talked about her special trip, “I think this was a meaningful climb for me.” Minnal has to wait for some years to climb the Everest because climbers have to be at least sixteen years to climb the peak.How did it all start? It all began last year when Minnal’s mother decided she might want to climb the famous Himalayas. As a good hiker, she asked both father and daughter if they were up for the challenge(挑战）.This year, on 20 May, the family flew to Nepal.Minnal told that most of the eight days were spent hiking ten to fifteen kilometres from 8a.m. to 6 p.m. each day. With the help of three local guides, they didn’t lose thei r way. Luckily, nobody fell ill. She also said that she is thinking of climbing Everest in the future.How brave the girl is! She is really a hero.读短文回答下面问题。
