Unit 3 A healthy lifeThe Best Nourishment of Life 生命最好的养料A little boy almost thought of himself as the most unfortunate child in the world because poliomyelitis made his leg lame and his teeth uneven and protrudent. He seldom played with his classmates；and when the teacher asked him to answer questions, he always lowered his head without a word.一个小男孩几乎认为自己是世界上最不幸的孩子，因为小儿麻痹症使他腿脚行动不便，牙齿参差不齐。他很少跟同学们玩耍，老师叫他回答问题时，他也总是低着头一言不发。One spring, the boys father asked for some saplings from the neighbor. He wanted to plant them in the front of the house. He told his children to plant a sapling each person. The father said to the children, Whose seedling grows best, I will buy him or her a favorite gift. The boy also wanted to get his fathers gift. But seeing his brothers and sisters carrying water to water the trees bouncily, anyhow, he hit upon an idea: he hoped the tree he planted would die soon. So watering it once or twice, he never attended to it.一年春天，小男孩的父亲从邻居家讨了些树苗，他想把它们栽在房前。他叫孩子们每人种一棵。父亲对孩子们说：谁栽的树苗长得最好，我就给谁买一件他最喜欢的礼物。小男孩也想得到父亲的礼物，但是看到兄弟姐妹们快活地提着水去浇树，不知怎么回事，他萌生了一个想法：他希望自己栽的树苗早日死去。因此他浇水一两次后，就再也没去照管小树苗了。A few days later, when the little boy went to see his tree again, he was surprised to find it not only didnt wilt, but also grew some fresh leaves, and compared with the trees of his brother and sister, his appeared greener and more vital. His father kept his promise,bought the little boy his favorite gift and said to him: from the tree he planted, he would become an outstanding botanist when he grew up.几天后，小男孩再去看他种的树苗时，惊奇地发现它不仅没有枯萎，而且还长出了一些新叶，与别人的相比，他的树苗显得更加翠绿、更有生气。父亲兑现了他的诺言，为小男孩买了一件他最喜欢的礼物，并对他说：从他栽的树来看，他长大后一定能成为一名出色的植物学家。Since then, the little boy slowly became optimistic. One day, the little boy lay on the bed but couldnt sleep. Looking at the bright moonlight outside the window, he suddenly recalled what the biology teacher once said, plants general grow at night. Why not go to see the tree? When he came to the courtyard on tiptoe, he found his father was splashing something under his tree with a ladle. All of a sudden, he understood: his father had been secretly fertilizing his small tree! He returned to his room, tears running down his face without restraint.从那以后，小男孩慢慢变得乐观起来。一天晚上，小男孩躺在床上睡不着，望着窗外明亮的月光，突然想起生物老师说过植物一般都在晚上生长。何不去看看自己种的那棵小树呢?当他轻手轻脚地来到院子里的时候，却看见父亲正用勺子在自己栽种的那棵树下泼洒着什么。顿时，一切他都明白了，原来父亲一直在为自己栽种的树苗偷偷地施肥！他返回房间，止不住泪流满面。Decades passed. The little boy didnt become a botanist, but he was elected President of the United States. His name was Franklin Roosevelt.z*xxk几十年过去了，小男孩并没有成为植物学家，却成为了美国总统，他的名字叫富兰克林罗斯福。Love is the best nourishment of life；even if it is just one ladleful of clear water, it can make the tree of life thrive. Maybe that tree is inconspicuous；perhaps that the tree is so thin, and even some withered, but as long as there is nourishment of love, it can flourish and even grow into towering trees.爱是生命最好的养料，哪怕只是一勺清水，它都能使生命之树茁壮成长。也许那棵树是那样不起眼，甚至还有些枯萎，但只要有爱的养料滋养，它就能枝繁叶茂，甚至长成参天大树。Good food, good mood 好食物好心情From fast food to a bowl full of leafy greens, snacking on something we enjoy is a guaranteed pick-me-up. But not all food types are good for us in the long term. Heres a list of the mood-boosting foods that will keep you happy and healthy.从快餐到一整碗绿叶蔬菜，吃一些我们喜欢的食物能够保证我们精神亢奋。但长期看来，并非所有的食物都是对我们有益的。以下就是一些能使我们愉快健康的食物，它们能让我们的心情变好。Chocolate巧克力For obvious reasons, chocolate makes us very happy. But it doesnt just provide an instant fix to a low mood, it is also rich in magnesium, which helps calm your muscles and reduce anxiety.显而易见，巧克力能使我们十分开心。但是如果情绪低落，吃了巧克力并不会有立竿见影的效果，巧克力也富含镁元素，能舒缓肌肉，减少焦躁感。Spinach 菠菜Popeyes favorite leafy greens have some key components for improving your mood and helping prevent you from becoming depressed. Both folic acid and magnesium are key to mood boosting and can leave you feeling motivated for the rest of the day.大力水手最喜欢的绿叶蔬菜含有一些重要的成分，可改善心情，有助于预防沮丧感。叶酸和镁元素都是促进心情的关键元素，也都能使你在接下来的一天中充满动力。Banana香蕉Packed full of potassium, bananas dont just provide an energy boost and make you fuller for longer. The curved yellow fruits also help to battle depression due to high levels of tryptophan, which converts into serotonin to produce our happy moods.香蕉富含钾元素，不仅能增加能量，同时也能使你的饱腹感更持久。由于这种弯弯的黄色水果含有大量的色氨酸（能转化成使心情变好的血清素），因此它能帮助我们战胜抑郁症。多吃这些既能燃烧脂肪又能使心情变好的食物吧！Eggs鸡蛋If you want your mood to be as sunny as your eggs, then eating them regularly will certainly help. Yolks arent just tastiest part of the egg, but theyre also full of L-tryptophan to help increase happy hormones.
