Begin with clear soup and fruit or vegetables.
A large glass of water before you eat may help you feel full.
Use a small plate;a large plate will encourage you to have more than enough.
Better not have high-fat foods. Dishes that look oily or creamy have much fat in them.
Choose lean meat. Fill your plate with salad and green vegetables.
If you have a sweet tooth, try mints( 薄 荷 ) and fruits. They don’t have fat content as cream
and chocolate.
Don’t let exercise take a break during the holidays. A 20-minute walk after a meal can help

The journey to the moon had been the first step toward future exploration ( 探 险 ) in space.
The distance between the Moon and Earth is very short indeed when compared with the distances
between Earth and the other planets. Mars, the nearest planet to Earth is millions of miles away.
Traveling to the planets will be man’s next aim. Such travels will be more challenging than the trip
to the moon and certainly more adventurous.

whether that planet has any life on it. So far the signs of life on Mars has neither confirmed (确认)
nor ruled out. Russians have discovered that the surface of Venus (金星) is so hot that it is almost
certain that there is no life there. Also the atmosphere of Venus is extremely dense ( 稠 ) and the
pressure is nearly a hundred times greater than that of the Earth’s atmosphere.
Scientists believe man may find planets which have the same conditions as those we have on
Earth, but man should realize Earth will be his only home for a long time and begin to love andcare for it.

Difficult financial times don't mean your giving shuts down. 36. There are so many
ways to give back that won't hurt your wallet and will enrich your life.
