Americans spend a lot of money in their daily lives.Working people spend money on

unpaid of the charges.

Too many Americans watch too much television. Americans probably watch more TV than any other people in the worle. This is not a good thing. Because of TV, Americans are getting too heavy and spend less time with their friends. Be careful when watching TV.
Many American students watch between twenty to sixty hours of TV a week!That ist very bad for their studies. When you watch too much TV, you have less time for exercise, your studies and sleep. Most people that watch a lot of TV eat at the same time. This is very bad because they eat too much and get overweight(too heavy). Watching TV also means less time talking with friends and family. That, also, is not a good thing.
It is better to watch just a little bit of TV a day.Thirty minutes to one hour is enough.If you have free time,it is a good idea to read a book or spend time with your friends and family.Studying is also a good way to spend your free time.
Americans do many good things, but watching too much TV is bad.
1.Watching too much TV is a good thing.T of F
2.Americans watch too little TV.T of F
3.Watching too much TV can make you too heavy.T of F

有关于Different social custom between Americans and Chinese

英语阅读理解,
For several years,Americans have enjoyed teleshopping--watching TV and buying things by phone.Now teleshopping is starting in Europe.In a number of European countries,people can turn on their TVs and shop for clothes,jewelery,food,toys,and many other things.
Teleshopping is becoming popular in Sweden,for example.The biggest Swedish company sells different kinds of things on TV in 15 European countries,and in one year it made $100 million.In France there are two teleshopping channels,and the French spend about $20 million a year to buy things through those channels.
In Germany,until last year teleshopping was only possible on one channel for 1 hour every day.Then the government allowed more teleshopping.Other channels can open for telebusiness,including the largest American teleshopping company and a 24-hour teleshopping company.German businesses are hoping this new teleshopping will help them sell more things.
Some people like teleshopping because it allows them to do their shopping without leaving their homes.With all the problems of traffic in the cities,this is an important reason.But at the same time,other Europeans do not like this new way of shopping.They call teleshopping "junk on the air".Many Europeans usually worry about the quality of the things for sale on TV.Good quality is important to them,and they believe they cannot be sure about the quality of the things on TV.
The need for high quality means thru European teleshopping companies will have to be different from the American companies.They will have to be more careful about the quality of the things they sell.They will also have to work harder to sell things that the buyers cannot touch or see in person.
提示：Europe n.欧洲 include v.包括 allow v.允许 junk n.垃圾 quality n.质量

1.America's terrible relationship with food
Americans have a very dysfunctional relationship with food.
Compared with the French,Belgians and Japanese,Americans get less pleasure from food and are most obsessed with whether it is 'healthy' or not (Rozin et al.,1999).
In contrast,the French have fewer hang-ups and enjoy their food the most.Perhaps it's no coincidence that they are also half as likely to be obese as Americans.
Americans,then,get the worst of all worlds:they are more dissatisfied with what they eat,are more concerned about whether it is healthy,try to make more dietary changes and are twice as likely to be obese as the French.
Something has clearly gone badly wrong with America's relationship with food.
2.You don't know when you're really full
We tend to think that the amount of food we eat is a result of how hungry we are.It's a factor,but not the only one.We are also affected by the size of the plates,serving spoons,packets and so on.
This has been most memorably demonstrated in a study where participants ate out of a soup bowl that was filled up secretly from under the table (Wansink et al.,2005).Others were served more soup in the usual way.Those eating out of the magically refilling bowl had almost twice as much soup but felt no less hungry and no more full.
The moral of this strange tale is that our stomachs provide only crude messages about how much we've eaten.Instead we rely on our vision and the eye is easily fooled.
Here's my healthy eating tip:force yourself to buy smaller packets of everything.Oh,and get rid of your automatically refilling soup-bowls:they're really doing you no good at all.

一道高二的英语阅读题目
Americans are more socially isolated than they were 20 years ago,separated by work,commuting and the single life,researchers reported on Friday.Nearly a quarter of people surveyed said they had "zero" close friends with whom to discuss personal matters.More than 50 percent named two or fewer confidants,most often immediate family members,the researchers said."This is a big social change,and it indicates something that's not good for our society," said Duke University Professor Lynn Smith-Lovin,lead author on the study to be published in the American Sociological Review.She said it indicated people had a surprising drop in the number of close friends since 1985.At that time,Americans most commonly said they had three close friends whom they had known for a long time,saw often,and with whom they shared a number of interests.They were almost as likely to name four or five friends,and the relationships often sprang from their neighborhoods or communities.Ties to a close network of friends create a social safety net that is good for society,and for the individual.Research has linked social support and civic participation to a longer life,Smith-Lovin said.People were not asked why they had fewer intimate ties,but Smith-Lovin said that part of the cause could be that Americans are working more,marrying later,having fewer children,and commuting longer distances.The data also show the social isolation trend mirrors other class divides:Non-whites and people with less education tend to have smaller social networks than white Americans and the highly educated.That means that in daily life,personal emergencies and national disasters such as Hurricane Katrina,those with the fewest resources also have the fewest personal friends to call for advice and assistance."It's one thing to know someone and exchange e-mails with them.It's another thing to say,'Will you give me a ride out of town with all of my possessions and pets?And can I stay with you for a couple or three months?" Smith-Lovin said."Worrying about social isolation is not a matter of nostalgia for a warm and cuddly past.Real things are strongly connected with that," added Harvard University Public Policy Professor Robert Putnam.He suggested flexible work schedules would allow Americans to tend both personal and professional lives.
5.Which of the following statement is NOT true according to the passage?
A.Most Americans had 3 close firends before 1985.
B.Professor Robert thinks flexible work schedules can ease the problem.
C.People have different ideas on the reason why they have fewer close friends.
D.Professor Robert thinks worrying about social isolation is not just a matter of nostalgia
