The Stranger Who Changed My Life
It was a sunny morning in the spring of 1966. I was driving a taxi, lookingfor a customer. While passing New York Hospital, I found a man running downthe hospital steps, waving at me.
I stopped. The man reached the taxi and jumped in. '~The Airport, please," hesaid. As always, I wondered about my passenger. Was this man a talker? After afew moments, he started saying, "How do you like driving a taxi?"
"It's OK," I said. "I make a living and meet interesting people sometimes."
"What do you do?" I asked.
"I am a doctor at New York Hospital."
Many times during long rides, I'd developed a good relationship with mypassengers and received very good advice from them. This time I decided to askfor his help.
"Could I ask a favor of you?" He didn't answer. "I have a son, 15, a good kid.He wants a job this summer. Is it possible that you get one for him?"
He still wasn't talking, and I was starting to feel foolish. Finally, he said,"Well, my students have a summer research project. Maybe he could join in. Havehim send me his school record."
He left his address and paid me. It was the last time I ever saw him.
Robbie sent off his grades the next morning. And gradually this incident wasforgotten. Two weeks later, when I arrived home from work, Robbie handed me aletter. He was informed to call Dr. Plum for an interview.

Talk to Your Kids about Their Eating Habits Carefully
Weight is never an easy subject. It can be risky for parents to raise the issue ofeating habits and weight with their kids.
"No kid ever lost weight because his mother told him he was fat," a friendtold me when I was worried about my son's weight.
It turns out she was right, according to a new study. The study was directedby Dr. Berge at University of Minnesota. She found that kids whose parentsdiscussed eating in a healthy way were less likely to have eating problems. But64% of the kids whose parents focused on their weight turned to unhealthy eatingbehaviors. Some kids went on extreme diets, and others even ate no food. Soeating disorders were caused. Things were worse when fathers joined in thediscussions with theft daughters and focused on weight. "Fathers should nevercomment on their daughters' weight," says Berge. Instead, she suggests, fathersshould focus on their daughters' interests. That can help them feel loved andconfident enough to work on their weight issues.
How should parents talk to kids about eating behaviors? According to Berge,they should avoid focusing on how much their kids weigh. They should talk tothem about being healthy. Don't compare them with others. Ideally, both parentsshould share the responsibility. If that's not possible, choose the parent whosewords cause the least amount of stress and who demonstrates healthy eating.

① You just found some good stuff on the Web for your science report. You copya paragraph and paste it into your report. Then you continue your research. Butyou just made a big mistake.

Fruit
Imagine a world without fruit. We wouldn't be very healthy. We get a lot ofimportant vitamins from eating fruit.
We think of fruit primarily as something to eat. 26 Fruit is part of aflowering plant and it carries the seeds. The purpose of fruit is to protect a plant'sseeds and help them get spread about. Wind and water spread seeds. So doanimals when they eat fruit and drop the seeds. 27
There are two main types of fruit: fleshy and dry. Fleshy fruits are soft andjuicy. Pears, bananas and apples are all fleshy fruits. 28 Grains like wheatand rice, or nuts like chestnuts (板栗), are dry fruits.
But wait: You've eaten oranges and grapes without seeds. How can they befruits? It's because people have changed the way they grow fruit. They can nowgrow seedless fruit. Seedless fruit comes from special plants that are made bycombining two varieties of a fruit to form a new variety. These special plants growand produce seeds. 29 These plants cannot reproduce themselves. They canmake fruit, but the fruit has no seeds.
Fruits are a source of substances that keep us alive and healthy. So people makeuse of fruits for many foods. We make juices from them. We make jams and sweets. 30 Beer comes from grains and wine comes from grapes, and some particularwines are made from apples, peaches, or other fruits.
