　　Celia was shocked．She had always been in good shape during high school, but now, in her first year of college, she was suddenly ten pounds heavier．“My friends and I often had pizza or ice cream when we studied late at night,” she said, “and I was always drinking Coke to stay awake．”

　　Celia's experience is common．Many students enter college and find it so different that they cannot deal with changes properly．They're away from their parents and in a new stressful environment．Pressures together with freedom to sleep and eat whatever they please cause many students to experience the “Freshman 15”：gaining weight suddenly in their freshman year of college．

　　Most students do not realize that the “Freshman 15” can cause some serious health problems．Of course, college-age adults are still developing bone mass, so gaining some weight is normal．Sudden weight gain, however, puts too much strain(負(fù)擔(dān))on the heart and lungs, resulting in little energy and some difficulty thinking and remembering．In later life, it can lead to heart disease, diabetes, obesity, and possible cancer．

　　The solution to the “Freshman 15” is simple－pay attention to developing good habits! In general：

　　●Eat normal-sized meals at regular times．Eat slowly and enjoy it, so you don't need to go back for more．

　　●Keep only healthy snacks in your room－and don't snack too often!

　　●Control drinking and smoking．Alcohol has a lot of calories, and smoking too much makes exercise difficult．

　　●Exercise regularly! Even just 30 minutes a day－such as walking quickly to class from your dorm－will make a big difference!

Nelson Mandela

　　Nelson Mandela is one of the great political leaders of our time．His lifelong efforts to the fight against racial(種族)oppression(壓迫)in his country won him the admiration(欽慕)of millions worldwide, as well as the 1993 Nobel Peace Prize．As the leader of South Africa’s anti-partheid(反種族隔離)movement, Mandela was a key player in helping to move his country toward multiracial government(多民族政府)and majority rule．

　　Mandela’s long, hard struggle is a victory of dignity(尊嚴(yán))and hope．He’s a man of true courage．If determination and patience were considered talents, Mandela would win hands down in any sort of competition．

　　accomplishments(成就)& fame(名譽(yù))

　　Nelson Mandela’s greatest accomplishments were his role in ending apartheid, and becoming South Africa’s first elected black president．He has been the recipient(收件人)of dozens upon dozens of awards, prizes and honors from countless associations and organizations, but perhaps none more prestigious(聲望很高)than the Nobel Peace Prize, which he shared with former South African President Frederik W．de Klerk, in 1993．

　　He has been awarded several other major peace prizes, such as the UNESCO(United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization)Peace Prize in 1991(also shared with F．W．de Klerk); the Africa Peace Award in 1995 and the International Gandhi Peace Prize in 2002．

　　Mr．Mandela also received dozens of honorary degrees(名譽(yù)學(xué)位)from universities the world over, including the Universities of Bristol, Cambridge, Glasgow, London, Nottingham, and Oxford, as well as an Honorary Doctorate from the Sorbonne University in Paris(all in July 1996), and Harvard Business School’s Statesman of the Year Award in 1995－to name but a few．He has also been presented(贈(zèng)送)with the key to cities such as Rome, Rio de Janeiro, London, Dublin, and Sydney, Australia(where he became the first person ever to receive the Freedom of that city)．In July of 2002, he received the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the United States highest civilian(公民)award．

　　Model

　　There’s something admirable about having been a leader fighting for a people’s freedom and equality in an unjust society．Mandela has become a worldwide symbol(楷模)of the struggle of the oppressed(被壓迫者)over the oppressor．He has been celebrated in song by artists the world over, in many different languages．One entitled “Nelson Mandela”was recorded by British 2-Tone group The Special A．K．A(formerly The Specials); making the top 10 in the UK and a few other European nations in 1984．

　　Personal style

　　As a president, Mandela sported the typical garb(服飾)of high-ranking government officials： expensive, well-tailored(縫制精致的)suits．Now retired(退役)from public life, Mandela the elder statesman dresses in an ordinary way．

　　He attends many activities, often where he is the guest of honor, in bright, colorfully patterned(典型的)traditional African robes(長(zhǎng)袍)or shirts all the better for getting down when the music begins．

(1)

Mandel was not only admired(欽慕)for his long fight against ________but also for ________．
