1、范文分析In many countries today, the eating habits and lifestyle of children are different from those of previous generations. Some people say this has had a negative effect on their health.To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?It has recently been suggested that the way children eat

2、 and live nowadays has led to deterioration in their health. I entirely agree with this view, and believe that this alarming situation has come about for several reasons.To begin with, there is the worrying increase in the amount of processed food that children are eating at home, with little or non

3、e of the fresh fruit and vegetables that earlier generations ate every day. Secondly, more and more young people are choosing to eat in fast-food restaurants, which may be harmless occasionally, but not every day. What they eat there is extremely high in fat, salt and sugar, all of which can be dama

4、ging to their health.There is also a disturbing decline in the amount of exercise they get. Schools have become obsessed with exams, with the shocking result that some pupils now do no sports at all. To make matters worse, few even get any exercise on the way to and from school, as most of them go i

5、n their parents cars rather than walk or cycle. Finally, children are spending far more time at home, playing computer games, watching TV or surfing the Internet. They no longer play outside with friends or take part in challenging outdoor activities.To sum up, although none of these changes could,

6、on its own, have caused widespread harm to childrens health, there can be little doubt that all of them together have had a devastating effect. This, in my opinion, can only be reversed by encouraging children to return to move traditional ways of eating and living.The number of overweight children

7、in developed countries is increasing. Some people think this is due to problems such as the growing number of fast food outlets. Others believe that parents are to blame for not looking after their childrens health.To what extent do you agree with these views?There is plenty of evidence to suggest t

8、hat children are overweight and the situation is getting worse, according to the medical experts. I feel there are a number of reasons for this.Some people blame the fact that we are surrounded by shops selling unhealthy, fatty foods such as chips and fried chicken, at low prices. This has created a

9、 whole generation of adults who have never cooked a meal for themselves. If there were fewer of these restaurants, then children would not be tempted to buy take-away food.There is another argument that blames the parents for allowing their children to become overweight. I tend to agree with this vi

10、ew, because good eating habits begin early in life, long before children start to visit fast food outlets. If children are given chips and chocolate rather than nourishing food, or are always allowed to choose what they eat, they will go for the sweet and salty foods every time, and this will carry

11、on throughout their lives.There is a third factor, however, which contributes to the situation. Children these days take very little exercise. They do not walk to school. When they get home, they sit in front of the television or their computers and play video games. Not only is this an unhealthy pa

12、stime, it also gives them time to eat more junk food. What they need is to go outside and play active games or sport.The two views discussed play an equal role in contributing to the problem, but I think we have to encourage young people to be more active, as well as steering them away from fast foo

17、out any new product or service or any new promotion on the existing product and service. We need it so we can make good decisions when we go shopping.

18、ut new products. For example, many grocery stores now sell prepackaged lunches. These are very convenient for busy parents. They can give these lunches to their children to take to school.
