The Cause of Obesity

Obesity is a medical condition in which excess body fat has accumulated to the extent. Body mass index (BMI), a measurement which compares weight and height, defines people as overweight (pre-obese) if their BMI is greater than 30 kg/m2 (Wikipedia, 2011). Nowadays, obesity has become a serious problem in the world. Demonstrated according to the investigation that there is about 60 percent of the populace in the USA is too fat and Germany obese people are more than half of the country population.

Some people become obesity, because they inherit their parents’ obese gene. The UK researchers have discovered a commonly occurring gene variant that may explain why some people become overweight while others do not. (Paddock, 2012). Also, European and American are easier to get obese gene. So we can easily find a people who are overweight in American street and UK Street. People cannot change their obese gene. They can only keep a balanced diet and avoid eating too many high-fat, high-carbohydrate foods, such as chocolates, fried foods and carbonated drinks.

Moreover, more and more people lack of exercise is another reason to cause obesity. Because of the popularity of the Internet, teenagers began to indulge in the Internet. They just want to play computer games, online shopping and chat on Facebook、Twitter… So, they spend less time in playing sport and unlike previous youth to do various sport. They lack of exercise, lack of active and lack a best way to keep fit.

Besides, fast food is the best important reason to cause obesity. Fast foods contain a large number of calories and unhealthful ingredients. Also, fast foods are composed of high-fat, high-carbohydrate foods. Many teenagers just want to eat fast foods which are deep-fried. It is contributing to obesity. The study suggests that zoning laws restricting fast food outlets within a set distance of schools could combat childhood obesity in America. (Health State, 2007). In addition, eating too many fast foods can cause Hypertension, High cholesterol and malnutrition. A healthy diet not only can let us have a good figure, but also let us have a good health.

Obesity is an excess proportion of total body fat. We could this boils down eating too much rubbishy fast food and exercising too little in behavior, meanwhile, it can cause by an unmodifiablereality, our gene.Obesity is not just a cosmetic consideration. It is a chronic medical disease that can lead to diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease and other chronic illnesses. Obesity is difficult to treat and has a high relapse rate so that should prevent our weight to become too high ahead of schedule. (Word: 440)

篇二：说胖的英文单词

在英语中，关于“胖”，我们首先想到的就是fat。但fat在英语中是个强烈的贬义词，所以在西方如果说某人fat，不仅是对别人的伤害与歧视，也是自身粗鲁无教养的表现。

那么英语中如何恰当而又有礼貌地表达 “胖”呢？下面是一些常见的委婉表达法。

1. gain weight: 增加体重。例如：

People who drink diet soft drinks don’t lose weight. They gain weight, a new study finds.

2. super size person: 超大之人。例如：

No more hamburgers, I don’t want to be a super size person.

3. heavyset: 体格魁伟的。例如：

He was tall and heavyset.

4. nutritionally endowed: 营养丰富的。例如：

Though garlic is a nutritionally endowed food, it is only consumed in small amounts.

5. gravitationally challenged: 受地球引力挑战的。例如：

That girl is gravitationally challenged.

6. well-built: 体格健美的，体型匀称的。例如：

That girl is well-built.

7. stout 结实的，壮实的。例如：

She is getting too stout for her dresses.

8. big-boned: 骨骼粗大的。例如：

I’m not fat, just big-boned.

9. overweight: 超重的。例如：

Overweight in a child should not be neglected.

10. chubby: 胖乎乎的（多指小孩和女子）。 例如：

The baby has a chubby face.

11. buxom: 体态丰满的。例如：

A generation ago, fat babies were considered healthy and buxom actresses were popular, but society has come to worship thinness.

同样,“瘦”不能说skinny，它是“皮包骨”的意思。要形容一个人苗条应该用slender,slim，或delicate。“减肥”则可以说lose pounds或lose weight。

总之,“胖”和“瘦”是英美人敏感的话题, fat和skinny的使用要十分小心，注意回避。但是有一个例外就是phat(妙，好，酷)，是fat 的异体词，在口语中常常用于赞美美妙的东西,相当于cool。例如：

The car is really a phat.

A possible version:

Dear Editor,

I’m a middle school student named Wang Ping. Recently, we often have to buy presents for our classmates’ birthdays, and sometimes, we are invited to their birthday parties in expensive

hotels, which caused us to think whether students should spend so much money for birthdays.About this there are two different views. Some students think it provides us with a good chance to communicate with each other and develop our friendship, and besides, we can relax after hard work at school. However, some other students think it’s a waste of money and time and can lead us to getting into the bad habit of trying to keep up with the Joneses, which has a bad effect on our growth and studies.

As far as I’m concerned, it’s not easy for our parents to make money and keep us at school for education. So there is no need for us to do like that. We must treasure our parents’ labor and put our hearts into our studies.

What do you think about it? I’m expecting your reply.

Yours,

Wang Ping

Tracking My Growth

The process of growing up is complex for every person, for there are many influential factors in a person’s growth as well as the development of his personality．As for me, what has affected me most in my both growth and personality are family and friends, the two equally important factors． After one is born, the first surroundings is the family in which he will grow up．Family plays a significant role in shaping children’s character because it’s children’s most direct source of knowledge and experiences．Those who are brought up in good families tend to possess many pleasant characters and vice versa．

On the other hand, friends in some ways influence him more rapidly than families do．Friends have many different opinions and personalities．Discussing with them builds up his personality．Frankly speaking, I get lots of valuable things from my friends．

Family offers me warmth and care．Friends give me strength and horizons．Therefore, both of them are most influential in my growth
