Unit 3 A healthy life

Nearly a million American youngsters， some as young as 6， rely onpersonal trainers to shape up

塑身， lose weightor

improve in sports. Many parents， worried about their children's weight and fitness， say that working with a trainer motivates 激发 their kids and helps them build confidence. So they are willing to spend the D|S40 to D|S60 an hour that trainers generally charge.,The Boston-based group's latest figures， from 2005， show that 824，000 children between the ages of 6 and 17 use trainers. With many high school students not getting exercise at school， more parents are turning totrainers to help their children stay fit. More than one-third of American children are overweight and

experts warn of future health problems ahead from diabetes 糖尿病 to heart disease.,Kathleen Ballew said that her 7-year-old son， Jordan Sims， who would begin second grade in the fall， could benefit from some one-on-one time with a fitness professional. She had noticed that he needed help with balance and coordination 协调能力 in soccer and karate 空手道

. She also observed that he

did not want to do things that kids normally did， like climbing on park equipment. After Jordan had begun working out at Baylor Tom Landry Fitness Center in Dallas with a trainer about a year before， he moved more naturally and confidently. His trainer， Lauren Jacobson， works with about half a dozen kids under 18. She said she noticed that training helped build confidence and a sense

of accomplishment， along withhelping kids get in better shape.

letter, my dear grandson. Your mother tells addicted/?'dIktId/adj.入了迷的；上了瘾的 me that you started smoking some time ago and now you are finding it difficult to give it up. Believe me, I know how easy it is to begin smoking and how tough it is to stop. You see, during adolescence I also smoked and became addicted to cigarettes.

爷爷的忠告

亲爱的詹姆士：

今天这儿的天气很好。我正坐在花园尽头的那棵大树底下呢。我刚刚才回来，骑自行车跑了很长一段路，一直到了古城堡。这好像很惊奇吧，在我这样的年纪，仍然身体足够健康能在一个下午骑车跑20千米。再过两个礼拜就是我82岁的生日了！我想我(之所以)长寿而且精力充沛，要归功于我过的健康生活。

这就是我写信给你的真正原因，我亲爱的孙子。你妈妈告诉我，你不久前开始吸烟了，而且现在你发现很难把它戒掉。相信我吧，我知道开始吸烟是多么容易而戒烟是多么困难。你知道，当我还是一个十几岁的孩子的时候，我也吸过烟，而且对烟还上了瘾。 2

这儿我顺便问你一个问题，你知道上瘾有三个不同方面的原因吗？首先，你会在身体上对尼古丁有瘾，它是香烟里几百种化学物质之一。这就是说，过一段时间以后，你的身体习惯了香烟里的尼古丁。因此一旦你的体内没有这种麻醉剂了，你就会有脱瘾症状。我记得曾感到烦躁，有时甚至痛苦。其次，你也可能因为习惯而上瘾。你知道，如果你反反复复地做同一件事情，你就会开始自动地做它。最后，你可能在心理上上瘾。我那时认为，抽了一支烟后就会感到更轻松愉快，于是我就开始认为只有抽烟才能使自己感觉良好。我之所以上瘾共有三个方面的原因，因此，要戒烟就很难。但是我最终还是戒掉了。

do/does/did为助动词，意为“确实；的确”，用于肯定句，起加强语气的作用，有人称和时态的变化。
