eating habits. most teenagers love fast food with a lot of fat, oil, salt and sugar. people often call this kind of food “junk food”. but bad eating habits go beyond fast food. we find many teenagers eat unhealthily. some dont have breakfast before they go to school. during the day, some dont have a proper meal for lunch. in a recent survey(调查) at one school, scientists found that over two thirds of the students didnt follow a healthy diet. they didnt like vegetables, and many of them didnt like to eat fruits. they preferred(更喜欢) to eat food with a lot of salt, sugar, or fat. parents today also worry about their childrens diet. some doctors give the following advice: teenagers shouldnt eat too much junk food. teenagers shouldnt eat food with too much salt. salt can cause high blood pressure(高血压)in the future. teenagers should eat food with less fat, oil, and sugar. teenagers need to eat some fruits and vegetables every day. fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins(维生素)and have little fat. teenagers need to drink more milk. milk will help their bones grow. teenagers need to eat breakfast every day. this is good for their body and mind. 51.“junk food” contains(包括)a lot of _.
