    "Your son's been in an accident," the lifeguard (救生员) reported to my2Mike over the phone hurriedly. "3he came up to the top of the water, the point of the board was headed toward his eye."

    Mike rushed our son to the hospital. He426 stitches (缝合) from the corner of his eye to the bridge of his nose.

    I was5home from a meeting while Daniel's eye was being stitched. Mike drove6to the airport after they left the doctor's office. He greeted7at the gate while Daniel was waiting in the car.

    "Daniel?" I questioned. I remember thinking the8must have been terrible that day.

    "He's been in an accident, but he's going to be fine," Mike comforted me.

    I ran to the car. My son reached out both arms, crying, "Oh, Mum, I'm so glad you're home."

    I sobbed (抽泣) in his arms, telling him how9I felt about not being there when the lifeguard called.

    "It's okay, Mum," he said. "I'll be fine. The doctor said I can go back in the water in eight days."

    He kept asking me to let him go back on the12for the next seven days. One day after I13 "No" to him for the 100th time, he beat me at my own game.

    "Mum, you taught me never to14what we love."

    It is nolonger as easy as it once was to choose what to eat. Our eating habits havechanged, so has our way of life, and what we need for our bodies is alsodifferent. Traditional diets often have too much fat. So we had better learn tomake the right choices about what and how we eat.

    When wechoose what to buy and eat, we had better think whether the food will give usthenutrientswe need. Some nutrients help build our bodies and make usstronger. We eat fish, meat and beans because the nutrient in them is good forour muscles. We choose eggs, milk and other dairy products (奶制品), which are good for our bonesand teeth. We eat bread, rice and noodles to get carbohydrates (糖类) from them. We choose vegetables and fruit to get vitamins, fiberand minerals.

    But thechoices we make are not just about nutrition (营养). Many people today choose what to eat according totheir beliefs. Some people become vegetarians (素食主义者)because they believe it is healthier not to eat meat or they think we shouldnot kill animals for food.
