Healthy eating doesn't just mean what you eat, but how you eat. Here is some advice on healthy cating.
Eat with others
It can help you to see others' healthy eating habits. If you usually eat with your parents,you will find that the food you eat is more healthy.
Listen to your body
Ask yourself if you are really hungry. Have a glass of water to see if you are thirsty——sometimes you are just thirsty, and you need no food. Stop eating before you feel full.
Eat breakfast
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Because you don't eat for the past ten hours, your body needs food to get you going. You will be smarter after eating breakfast.
Eat healthy snacks like fruits, y ogurt or cheese
We all need snacks sometimes. In fact, it's a good idea to eat two healthy snacks between your three meals. This doesn't mean that you can eat a bag of chips'instead of a meal.
Don't eat dinner late

One day, I picked up my daughter Lingling from school and went to the supermarket for a few things. I was hoping to be in and out quickly.
I found a short line with just one person in front of me. It was an old woman, and she was paying for her things with only coins. After a long day at work, I thought the woman was very terrible.
But then I watched a young salesman. He helped her count her coins, ever so kindly taking them from her shaking hands. I listened to him repeatedly say to her:“ Yes, ma’am(女士).” When she asked if she had enough money to buy a bag, he told her she did. Then he walked over two lines and got one for her. This salesman wasn't angry at all. He was patient and kind.
As I was watching him, I saw Lingling was too. I realised my daughter was learning an important lesson from a stranger.
When the woman was finished, the salesman began ringing up my things and thanked me for my patience(耐心). I thanked him too. I found the manager and told him about the salesman's kindness and patience.
Then we left the supermarket with a full basket, but also with a heart full of thankfulness for such an important lesson.

Space travel is nothing new. The first spacecraft with a human was sent into space in 1961.Since then, many people have not only traveled to space, but also lived in space stations for some time.
The Soviet Union sent the first space station into space in 1971. This space station was called Salyut 1. Salyut 1 was designed as a place where people could live while they observed space and did experiments (实验). They found that space was just like a magic box. The first group of astronauts lived there for 23 days. The Soviet Union went on to make more Salyut space stations. At about the same time, the United States built its own space station called Skylab.
Astronaut s visited and often lived in these space stations for a short time. However, it wasn't until the late 1980s when the Soviet Union sent the space station called Mir that people began to live in space for a longer time. Mir stayed in space from 1986 to 2001, when it was decided that the space station was too old and no longer safe to live in.
One of them is food. All the meals on space stations are put together on Earth and

sent there by space shuttles. Because the food has to keep for a long time (sometimes up to three months), a lot of it has to be stored in cans. Most space stations do not have a fridge, but they have a cool room to keep fruit and vegetables fresh. Astronaut s also eat plenty of other foods such as dried meat that do not need special care. Without the help of gravity (重力),sitting down to eat can be hard. Astronauts sometimes have to fix themselves to the wall while eating. They also have to be very careful so that food does not float away.
56. What does the underlined word“observed”in Paragraph 2 mean in English?
A. heard B. watched C. checked D. reached
57. What can we infer(推断) from the passage?
A. Space travel has quite a long history of more than 70 years.
B. Astronauts could live in the space station for no more than three weeks.
C. The Soviet Union sent some space stations into space in the 1970s and 1980s.
D. Astronauts can never have a chance to eat fresh food when they live in space stations.
58. Which of the following is the best to be placed in the“ ▲ ”?
A. Living in space stations seems to be fun.
B. Living in space stations seems to be colorful.
C. Living in space stations makes astronauts get more information.
D. Living in space stations makes astronauts face many problems.
