4. In the United States, 30 percent of the grown-up population has a “weight problem.” To many
people,
the cause is clear: we eat too much. But scientific experiments do little to support this idea. Going
back to the America of 1910, we find that people were thinner than today, yet they ate more food. In
those days people worked harder physically, walked more, used machines much less, and didn't watch
television.
Several modern studies, besides, have shown that fatter people do not eat more on average than
thinner people. In fact, some research work, such as the 1979 study of 3,545 London office workers,
reports that fat people eat less than thinner people on average. Studies show that thin people are
more active than fat people. A study by the research group at Standford University School of Medicine
found the following fact: the more the man ran, the greater body fat he lost. The more he ran, the greater
was his need for food. Thus, those who ran the most ate the most, yet lost the greatest amount of

Help For Elderly People
It is reported that China has stepped into an aging society. As the aging of the population quickens, the number of elderly people is becoming very large. Therefore, it is necessary to find good ways to deal with the problem.According to traditional Chinese moral values, it is the sons or daughters who should take the responsibility of caring for their elderly parents. The youth should not only look after their elderly parents in material terms but also understand their loneliness and do their best to spend more time with them. But because the family plan has been carried out for many years in China, it is a common picture that a young couple has to support four elderly parents. This trend will reach its peak in coming years. The government is responsible for guaranteeing the basic living standards of the elderly and safeguard their legitimate rights and interests and establish a multi-level old-age insurance system.满分：15 得分：未判分 总体评价：
