Every year movies festivals around the world present awards for best director. Some of this festival began ten years ago, and their list of winners for best director are quite long. However, among all the names of winners, it's not easy to find the names of female directors.

The Cannes Film festival is the first major movie festival to name female director as best director of the year in 1961, A Russian director called Yuliya Solnsteva won at Cannes. Since then, some movies directed by female directors have one Best Picture. But no female directors have one Best Director at Cannes.

The Best Director award at the Berlin International Film Festival is called the Silver Bear award. Only one woman has succeeded in winning it so far. She was Astrid Henning-Jensen from Denmark. Over her career, she directed more than 20 movies and in 1979, she won the Silver Bear for her movie Winterborn.

It is the most difficult for female directors to win Best Director in the Oscars in the USA. In fact, since the Oscars began in 1929, only four women have ever been nominated for Best Director. The first woman to actually win this award was Kathryn Bigelow for directing The Hurt Locker. She received the award in 2010.

Over the years, women have directed many wonderful movies. People like them even though they don’t win awards. And they make nice films. For example, Nora Ephron directed the great romantic-comedy Sleepless in Seattle and Vicky Jenson directed a wonderful animated movie Shrek.

Different vitamins are found in different foods. Then which foods should be eaten to keep us healthy? Let's look at some important vitamins for the answer.

Vitamin A helps to protect skin from becoming dry. It is also helpful to the eyes. Without vitamin A, you cannot see well in darkness. Vitamin A is found in animal liver and yellow part of eggs. Sweet potatoes, carrots and other dark colored fruit and vegetables have something that the body can change into vitamin A.

Vitamin B changes foods into energy and helps the heart and nervous system (神經(jīng)系統(tǒng)) to work smoothly. Without it, we will be weak and will not grow. It is found in grains and other foods like beans, nuts, meat and fish.

Vitamin B helps to produce red blood cells. It is found in foods like eggs, meat, fish, milk and green leafy vegetables.

Vitamin C is needed for strong bones and teeth, and for healthy blood vessels (血管). It also helps wounds to heal (愈合) quickly. The body stores little vitamin C, so we must get it in foods like oranges, and cabbage.

Vitamin D increases the levels of calcium (鈣) in the blood. Calcium is needed for verve and muscle (肌肉) cells to work normally, as well as to build strong bones. Fish liver oil has vitamin D. In some countries, milk producers add vitamin D to milk so that it will be good for children.
