Scott Langteau has this message for kids:Spend less time playing video games.
It's a message that many a mom and dad has tried to impress upon many a youngster(and some not?so?youngsters)who spends perhaps a bit too much time with game controllers in hand.
But the 40?year?old Langteau isn't a parent.He's experienced at video games-one who played producer on three “Medal of Honor” games and co?founded his own game development company.
Langteau has just published a children's book called“Sofa Boy”,which tells the story of a kid who spends too much time sitting on the couch with controllers held in hand and the rather dire consequences that follow.
It's a fairy tale picked straight from Langteau's own experiences as a lad with a fondness for video games and his painful struggle against game addiction.But first,Langteau would like make one thing clear:I'm not saying that you shouldn't play video games.I think video games are great.I think they do great things for kids.Instead,Langteau says his book is all about a little something called“moderation(克制)”.
“It's about being well rounded,”he says.“Just like with anything else,we all need to make sure that there's a variety in what we do.”
Video gamers can be rather bad?tempered when it comes to accepting criticism about their favorite entertainment.And understandably so.After all,most people who go around talking about the dangers of playing video games tend to be outsiders-people who don't play video games and certainly don't understand that they can be a valuable and healthy form of entertainment.
But Langteau and“Sofa Boy”seem to be in a unique position to deliver a message of gaming moderation that the young game masses might actually listen to.After all,this is a man who understands what it means to be a kid with a passion for games.His early experience has taught him a lesson.

NEW YORK (Reuters Health)—Kids who eat better perform better in school, a new study of Nova Scotia fifth?graders confirms.
Students who ate an adequate amount of fruit,vegetables,protein,fiber and other components of a healthy diet were significantly less likely to fail a literacy test,Dr.Paul J.Veugelers of the University of Alberta in Edmonton and colleagues found.
While a healthy diet is generally assumed to be important for good school performance, there has actually been little research on this topic, Veugelers and his colleagues note.To investigate,they looked at 4, 589 fifth?graders participating in the Children's Lifestyle and School?performance Study, 875 (19.1 percent) of whom had failed an elementary literacy assessment.
The better a student's eating habits based on several measures of diet quality,including adequacy and variety, the less likely he or she was to have failed the test, the researchers found,even after they adjusted the data for the effects of parental income and education, school and sex.Eating plenty of fruit and vegetables, and getting fewer calories from fat, was also associated with a lower risk of failing the test.
To date, Veugelers and his team say, most research on diet and school performance has focused on the importance of eating breakfast, as well as the ill effects of hunger and malnutrition(營養(yǎng)不良).
“This study extends current knowledge in this area by demonstrating the independent importance of overall diet quality to academic performance.We should not only realize the importance of children's nutrition at breakfast but also that throughout the day,” the researchers conclude.
Another research from the UK is suggesting that children's diets in the pre?school years affects how they perform at school later on.The researchers from the Institute of Education, at the University of London say in fact that what children were eating in those days before primary school has more of an effect than the chicken nuggets(塊) they ate at lunchtime.The researchers say they have found that children who ate a diet of “junk food” at the age of three, made less progress in school between the ages of six and ten.They say children's diet at later ages appears to have less impact on their school attainment.
1..According to Dr.Paul J.Veugelers, students who have a healthy diet________.
A.a(chǎn)re more likely to fail in their school performance
B.definitely can perform better in their school work
C.usually have more of fat and less of fruit and vegetables
D.tend to perform better in their school work
2..It can be implied from the passage that________.
A.little research has been done on the importance of breakfast
B.most students participating in the research failed the test
C.the adequacy and variety of foods can mean better school performance
D.eating more chicken nuggets leads to good school performance
3..The underlined word “l(fā)iteracy” (in Para.2) probably refers to ________.
A.the ability to read and write
B.a(chǎn) guessing game
C.the art of painting
D.the ability to handle practical task
4..Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A.Children should have more“junk food”at lunch time.
B.Pre?school diets can have more impact on children's school work.
C.A child who often has“junk food”at 3 is bound to fail in school work.
D.The older a child is,the more impact of what he eats has on school work.

That the Leaning Tower of Pisa no longer leans quite so much after a £20 million project to save it has proved to be a great success.The tower, which was on the edge of collapse, has been straightened by 18 inches, returning it to its 1838 position.
“It has straightened a little bit more than we expected, but very little helps, ”said Prof.John Burland, the only British member of the rescue committee.“The tower is still very slightly moving towards being upright. ”
The tower, which has been leaning almost since building work first began in 1173, was closed to the public in 1990 because of safety fears.The 183?foot tower was nearly 15 feet off vertical and its structure was found to have been weakened by centuries of strain(作用力).
Prof.Burland said it could have collapsed “at any moment”.However, it took nine years of quarreling before any work was done.The last attempt at straightening the tower was carried out. Concrete was poured into the foundations, but the result was that the tower sank further into the soil.
The straightening work involved digging out around 70 tonnes of earth from the northern side of the tower, causing it to sink on that side.Before the digging started, the tower was fixed with steel ropes and 600 tonnes of lead weights.
However, halfway through the project, concerns at the ugliness of the weights led to their removal and the tower leaned greatly.The weights were hurriedly reattached. In one night, the tower moved more than it had averaged in an entire year.The tower's stonework has also been restored.
The Italian government stepped in after a tower collapsed in Pavia in 1989, killing four people.Experts suddenly realized that the tower at Pisa, which was similarly built and on the same sort of earth, could do the same.
1.What would be the best title for the passage?
A.The Building of the Leaning Tower of Pisa
B.Saving the Leaning Tower of Pisa

D.The History of the Leaning Tower of Pisa
2.According to the passage, the Leaning Tower of Pisa_________________.
A.closed for the straightening work in 1990

C.has a history of more than 1, 000 years
D.has become vertical
3.What drove the Italian government to save the Leaning Tower of Pisa?
A.The development of new technology.
B.The advice of Prof. John Burland.
C.The expectation of the rescue committee.
D.The collapse of a tower in Pavia.
4.What most probably played the most important part in straightening the tower?
A.The lead weights fixed to the tower.
B.Restoring the stonework.
C.Pouring concrete into the foundations.
D.Digging earth from the southern side of the tower.
