As they migrate（迁移），butterflies and moths choose the winds they want to fly with，and they change their body positions if they start floating in the wrong direction．This new finding suggests that insects may employ some of the same methods that birds use for traveling long distances．Scientists have long thought that insects were simply at the mercy of the wind．
Fascinating as their skills of flight are，migrating behavior has been difficult to study in insects because many long distant trips happthousands of feet above ground．Only recently have scientists developed technologies that can detect such little creatures at such great heights．
To their surprise，though，the insects weren’t passive travelers on the winds．In autumn，for example，most light winds blew from the east，but the insects somehow sought out ones that carried them south and they positioned themselves to navigate directly to their wintering homes．
Even in the spring，when most winds flowed northward，the insects didn’t always go with the flow．If breezes weren’t blowing in the exact direction they wanted to go，the insects changed their body positions to compensate．Many migrating birds do the same thing．
The study also found，butterflies and moths actively flew within the air streams that pushed them along．By adding flight speeds to wind speeds，the scientists calculated that butterflies and moths can travel as fast as 100 kilometers an hour．The findings may have real-world applications．With climate warming，migrating insects are growing in number．Knowing how and when these pests move could help when farmers decide when to spray their crops．

Michelle Obama has just started a campaign against childhood obesity（肥胖）with the admission that she put her girls Malia and Sasha on a diet because they were getting fat．Clearly，childhood obesity must be solved urgently．But is it a good idea for mothers to put their daughters on diets?
Studies
show that the more children diet，the more likely they are to become obese as adults．
Research also shows that gifts are highly influenced by their mothers when it comes to eating habits and body image．
This was the case for Carly，40，who blames her mother for her lifelong struggle with weight．“My mother was on a diet the whole time I was growing up，”she says．“And she put me on my first diet when I was 10．I lost puppy fat，gained her approval and never ate normally again.”
America’s First Lady clearly has a vital healthy eating message to convey．But could this be damaging for Malia and Sasha? Could they develop eating disorders because of it?
“It’s wrong just to blame mothers for their daughters’eating disorders，”says Susan Ringwood，chief executive of the eating disorders charity，Beat．“There is a genetic（基因的）component to eating disorders．However，“We do know that parents have a very strong influence over a child’s eating．It's important to realize that you are your daughter’s role model．Girls idolize their mothers．”says Ringwood．
“No food should ever be‘good’ or‘bad’，” Ringwood says．Instead，“You have to make it clear that food is a sociable，healthy and fun part of life，not something to be feared．”
“Talk to her about body image，”Ringwood says．“Talk about how curves are an important and exciting part of being a woman．Show her that anorexic（厌食的）fashion models are not sexy，but ill．The pressure on girls today is immense，”she says．“But don’t forget that you are the authoritative voice，too．”

Amiya Olden could have been a poster child for a reading crisis that affects nearly 2 million Michigan residents older than 1 6：They read below a sixth-grade level，which makes it difficult to find jobs and to improve their lives．Among them，Amiya is one．
Amiya Olden remembers well the day she graduated from Denby High school．She handed her diploma to her mother，who read it to her．“Then when someone asked me to read it，I could remember the things she read，and I knew what I had to say，”recalled Amiya Olden．“When we would go out to restaurants with my aunts，and that is when I really would get upset．1 would see words on the menu but I couldn’t read! ”
But don‘t feel sorry for her. She changed her life by reaching a point where she’d read enough．Two summers ago，she took charge of her life when she walked into Pro Literacy Detroit to improve her reading．Nineteen months ago，she was reading at a second-grade level；now at a fifth-grade level．
Olden now splits her days between her classes at Pro Literacy and the library，where she checks out books and reads them．She says she hopes her improved reading skills will help her find a good job．
And she has advice for others，who have trouble reading．
“Don’t give up on it，”she said．“Even though it can be challenging and you might get frustrated sometimes，practice does help．If you really want to be able to go somewhere，go out to a restaurant and you have to read signs and things like that，you want to know what you want to eat and where you want to go．．．If you want to succeed in life and grow，you have to read．More important，you have to feel confident that you can．”
