W:Hey,Charlie,I’ve been thinking for a long time.

M:Oh,yeah?About what,Amy?

W:About the future… About what I want to be.

M:Hmm.I’m sure there are a lot of things that you can do,like doctor,teacher,secretary…

W:Mmm,maybe.I’d like a job in which I can often travel.

M:Well,what about being a flight attendant?You could travel a lot.

W:No,I’ve thought of that.Flight attendants work really hard.It’s so tiring.And planes aren’t safe nowadays.They may crash because of bad weather or even be used as weapons if they fall into the wrong hands.

M:How about being an interpreter?You’re really good at languages.And you could travel to international meetings.

W:No,I don’t think so.Interpreting doesn’t sound interesting to me.

M:Well,what are you interested in?

W:Well,maybe I’ll become…an international businesswoman.It’s so challenging.

M:But you don’t like thinking about money.

W:Well,I could change.

M:Mmm,I don’t know,Amy.I just don’t see you as a business person.

M:Let’s welcome Professor Sinclair and invite her to give us her suggestions on weight-loss strategies for overweight children.

W:Good afternoon.Childhood obesity has been receiving increasing attention in recent years.It’s no big secret that children like sweets,snacks and fast food.Fast food restaurants make fatty meals even more popular by including toys.However,there are healthy foods that children can enjoy just as much as other choices.Apple sticks dipped in butter are a delicious choice for midday snacks.Following the suggestions in the food pyramid is an easy way to make sure that a child has all of the nutrition he or she needs.

My second suggestion is exercise.Exercise may seem like a dull activity,but it really can be enjoyable.Going for a bike ride,taking a walk around the neighbourhood or running around the playground are all fun ways for children to get out and get moving.Fitness for kids is very different to fitness for adults.While adults often have a strong will to force themselves to exercise,kids usually would much rather sit in front of the television and watch their favourite cartoons.It’s important to make things fun to get a child’s attention and arouse his or her interest.

Finally,it is extremely important for overweight children to stick to a healthy lifestyle.The lifestyle of overweight children can prevent them from improving their health.Eating healthy foods and making fitness a fun experience for kids can help them get on the right track for a healthier lifestyle.
