【正文】 It turns out that demanding (要求)that a child eat something doesn39。t really work well. The mand to clean your plate can end up teaching children that it is normal to continue eating after their stomach is full. This habit may continue into adulthood and can lead to overweight bodies or food disorders. Instead, parents can try other methods that might actually influence their children to try new foods. One very simple method is to offer your children a small amount of newly introduced food. A large amount can seem intimidating (令人生畏的).One or two bites might feel less scary to try. Another really easy thing parents can do is to read the ingredients (成分）on food instructions. You might be surprised by the kinds of food that have some form of sugar added to them. One way to be a healthier eater is to reduce the amount of sugar a person eats. Read the ingredient labels, and pick a product that doesn39。t have extra sugar added. Start making your own type of your child39。 s favorite foods at home instead of buying processed (加工過(guò)的)ones. Consider organic foods over the popular, wellknown foods that are full of sugar. Sometimes, all it takes to get a child to eat healthily is to offer a food in a different way. Kids that hate raw cauliflower (菜花)might eat it after the vegetable is roasted. It is possible to turn a head of cauliflower into rice. It looks the same and your child may not notice the difference between it and real rice.（1）What do we know about Jane E.

The reality of college can be pretty different from the images presented in movies and television. Instead of the students who wake up late, party all the time, and study only before exams, many colleges are full of students with pressing schedules of not just classes and activities, but real jobs, too. This isn39。t a temporary phenomenon. The share of working students has been on the rise since the 1970s, and onefifth of students work year round. About onequarter of those who work while attending school have both a fullcourse load and a fulltime job. The arrangement can help pay for tuition (學(xué)費(fèi)) and living costs, obviously. And there39。s value in it beyond the direct cause: such jobs can also be critical for developing important professional and social skills that make it easier to land a job after graduation. With many employers looking for students with alreadydeveloped skill sets, onthejob training while in college can be the best way to ensure a job later on. But it39。s not all upside. Even fulltime work may not pletely cover the cost of tuition and living expenses. The study notes that if a student worked a fulltime job at the federal minimum wage, they would earn just over $15,000 each year, certainly not enough to pay for tuition, room, and board at many colleges without some serious financial aid. That means that though they39。re sacrificing time away from the classroom, many working students will still graduate with at least some debt. And working full time can reduce the chance that students will graduate at all, by cutting into the time available for studying and attending classes. There is little reward for attending but not finishing college Students who end up leaving school because of difficulty in managing work and class are likely to find themselves stuck in some of the same jobs they might have gotten if they hadn39。t gone at all. The difficulty of working too much while in school can create a cycle that pushes students further into debt without receiving any of the financial or career benefits.（1）According to the passage, the reality of college students is that ________. throw parties a lot stay up late every night work besides attending classes pay no attention to exams（2）What is the indirect cause of an increasing number of working students? need of developing social networks. lack of summer jobs for young adults. chance of finding a job after graduation. expenses of high tuition and living costs.（3）We can learn from the passage that _________. students are more likely to finish college can cover their college expenses through working receive a huge reward for managing work and class while attending school may not help students get career benefits（4）What is the best title for the passage?
