There are ways to help kids eat healthily and avoid involving many fights at the dinner table.Jane E. Brody wrote an article for The New York Times in August 2020. The articled title is Another Approach to Raising Healthy Eaters. In this article, she shares her experience as a child who was a picky eater. She provides some useful views for parents who have children that are very picky about what foods they will eat.It turns out that demanding (要求）that a child eat something doesnt really work well. The command to “clean your plate” can end up teaching children that it is normal to continue eating after their stomach is full. This habit may continue into adulthood, and can lead to overweight bodies or food disorders.Instead, parents can try other methods that might actually influence their children to try new foods. One very simple method is to offer your children a small amount of newly introduced food. A large amount can seem intimidating (令人生畏的).One or two bites might feel less “scary” to try.Another really easy thing parents can do is to read the ingredients (成分）on food instructions. You might be surprised by the kinds of food that have some form of sugar added to them. One way to be a healthier eater is to reduce the amount of sugar a person eats. Read the ingredient labels, and pick a product that doesnt have extra sugar added. Start making your own type of your child s favorite foods at home instead of buying processed (加工过的）ones. Consider organic foods over the popular, well-known foods that are full of sugar.Sometimes, all it takes to get a child to eat healthily is to offer a food in a different way. Kids that hate raw cauliflower (菜花）might eat it after the vegetable is roasted. It is possible to turn a head of cauliflower into rice. It looks the same and your child may not notice the difference between it and real rice.12. What do we know about Jane E. Brody?A.She wrote a book to help kids eat healthily.B.Her article for The New York Times was written in winter.C.She shared some methods with parents having picky children.D.Her experience as a picky eater once made her parents annoyed.13.The command of cleaning ones plate usually_.A.doesnt work at allB.leads to childrens stomachacheC. ends up with childrens hating eatingD. gets children into a bad eating habit14.What can parents do if they want their children to try a new food?A.Offer a small amount of it.B.Give all of the food to them.C.Tell them the ingredients in it.D.Reduce the amount of sugar in it.15.Which of the following can help your kid become a healthy eater?A.Making him eat up all food.B.Only eating organic foods.C.Buying processed foods.D.Eating less sugar.二 七选五（共5题，每题2分，满分10分）Having a pet is rewarding, but it can be hard work as well.
