      Modem life is impossible without travelling. The fastest way of travelling is by plane. With a modem plane it takes one day to travel places which took a month or more to get to a hundred years ago.

      Travelling by train is slower than by plane,but it has its advantages (優(yōu)勢(shì)) . You can see the country you are travelling through. Modem trains have comfortable seats and dining-cars. They make even the longest journey enjoyable.

Some people prefer to travel by sea when possible. There are large liners and river boats. You can visit many other countries and different parts of your country on them. Ships are not as fast as trains or planes,but travelling by sea is a very pleasant way to spend a holiday.

      Many people like to travel by car. You can make your own timetable. You can travel three or four hundred miles or only fifty or one hundred miles a day,just as you like. You can stop wherever you wish—where there is something interesting to see,at a good restaurant where you can enjoy a good meal,or at a hotel where you can spend the night. That is why travelling by car is a popular pleasant trip ? while people usually take a train or a plane when they are travelling on business.

       We parents like to make sure that our children are eating well and getting all the nutrients (營(yíng) 養(yǎng)) they need. Children need two or three kinds of vegetables every day.

       A simple way to get children to eat vegetables is eating them ourselves. Following our habit,they may start eating vegetables. Don ’ t say things like ,“ If you eat your vegetables,you can have desserts. ” These methods work for a little while but can possibly lead them to hate vegetables more. Giving your children new varieties will help her or him develop a taste for trying new things.

       Sometimes the simple things just don ’ t  work. We have to start becoming a little creative when it comes to making our children eat these vegetables. By doing this in the beginning when they are small,it will hopefully help them learn to love vegetables.

       Think of creative ways to make children eat vegetables. For example,cut up vegetables like carrots,tomatoes,and assemble (集合) a creative way on a plate for an afternoon snack. Or try using cheese sauce either by dipping (浸) vegetables or by putting the cheese right on top of the uncooked vegetables.

       If you prefer,you can also add a teaspoon of sugar on top of cooked green beans and peas to give them a little sweeter taste. Doing this shouldn ’t lead to a sweet tooth as long as you only give them a small amount.

       If you have a child that refuses to eat vegetables,some of these suggestions I ’ ve listed will help to turn that around. In the end,you’re not just getting them to eat vegetables? you are helping them live a healthier lifestyle.

() 1. According to the text,all the following ways to get children to eat vegetables are creative EXCEPT .

   A. making vegetables much sweeter

   B. putting cheese on top of vegetables

   C. preparing carrots in an attractive way

   D. adding some cheese sauce to vegetables

() 2. If you want your children to develop the habit of eating vegetables,you should

   A. be very patient to them   B. set an example to them

   C. give dessert to them as an award   D. cut vegetables into different types

() 3. The underlined word “varieties” in the second paragraph means “  ”.

   A. 持續(xù)   B. 單一化   C. 多樣性   D. 克制

() 4. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

   A. Children need to eat vegetables every day.

   B. Parents should help children live a healthy lifestyle.

   C. Sugar can make children keep a healthy lifestyle.
