When you look at your food, some ingredients are easy to see. For example, there is cheese on your pizza and butter on your bread. But our meals are also filled with ingredients you can’t see. And you might be surprised to learn just how much those hidden (隐藏的) ingredients affect your health.
Salt is a perfect example of an ingredient that you might not notice, even when you eat a lot of it. More than 75% of the salt we eat is hidden in restaurant meals, fast food and processed (加工过的) food , such as French fries, hot dogs and even biscuits.
Salt is important to us. It keeps our muscles (肌肉）working and our nerves (神经）sending messages through the whole body. Salt can be used to clean teeth, to make our skin smooth or added to a relaxing bath. Salt is also used to help make food last (持续) longer.
However eating too much salt can cause heart problems. For a long time, heart trouble has been regarded as an adult problem, but new research shows that salt is starting to affect kids. Then how much salt is safe for kids every day? Let's look at the following chart:

2 grams |

We live in the “ Computer Age”. People like scientists, teachers, writers and students use computers to do all kinds of works. But more than 30 years ago, computers couldn’t do much. They were very big and expensive. Very few people were interested in them and knew how to use them. Today computers are smaller and cheaper. Since they can do a lot of work, many people like to use them. Some people even have them at home.
Computers become very important because they can work faster than men and make fewer mistakes. Computers can help people do a lot of work. Writers now use computers to write. Teachers use them to help teaching. Students use them to study and children use them to play games. Computers can also remember what you put into them. Computers are very useful and helpful. They are our good friends. Do you want a computer?Who use computers to do all kinds of works?
