Michelle Obama has just started a campaign against childhood obesity(肥胖)with the admission that she put her girls Malia and Sasha on a diet because they were getting fat.Clearly,childhood obesity must be solved urgently.But is it a good idea for mothers to put their daughters on diets?
Studies show that the more children diet,the more likely they are to become obese as adults.
Research also shows that gifts are highly influenced by their mothers when it comes to eating habits and body image.
This was the case for Carly,40,who blames her mother for her lifelong struggle with weight.“My mother was on a diet the whole time I was growing up,”she says.“And she put me on my first diet when I was 10.I lost puppy fat,gained her approval and never ate normally again.”
America’s First Lady clearly has a vital healthy eating message to convey.But could this be damaging for Malia and Sasha? Could they develop eating disorders because of it?
“It’s wrong just to blame mothers for their daughters’eating disorders,”says Susan Ringwood,chief executive of the eating disorders charity,Beat.“There is a genetic(基因的)component to eating disorders.However,“We do know that parents have a very strong influence over a child’s eating.It's important to realize that you are your daughter’s role model.Girls idolize their mothers.”says Ringwood.
“No food should ever be‘good’ or‘bad’,” Ringwood says.Instead,“You have to make it clear that food is a sociable,healthy and fun part of life,not something to be feared.”
“Talk to her about body image,”Ringwood says.“Talk about how curves are an important and exciting part of being a woman.Show her that anorexic(厌食的)fashion models are not sexy,but ill.The pressure on girls today is immense,”she says.“But don’t forget that you are the authoritative voice,too.”

A year ago Michelle was looking forward to all the joys—and challenges—that being a young mother can bring. Instead the 26-year-old victim of a stroke (中风), was left trapped in her own body—able to see, think and hear perfectly but unable to speak or move a muscle. She was a victim of the devastating “locked-in syndrome”, -sometimes described as “like being buried alive”-a type of brain damage usually caused by a stroke, a bleed or a tumour. This means the only way she could communicate with her husband Rick and their two young children was through moving and blinking (眨眼) her eyes.
Before the tragedy, Michelle was an active mother. She suffered the stroke while bathing her baby daughter, Holly. The only warning Michelle had of the stroke was a series of splitting headache in the months before.
Following the attack, the only part of her body she could move was her eyes, meaning all she could do was look up to say ‘yes’ or close an eyelid for ‘no’. Her family have a board with the alphabet (字母表) arranged on different colored backgrounds. They painstakingly work out which letter she wants by indicating each letter on the board. It allows Michelle to explain how she is feeling and whether she is cold or warm. She sends messages to her family and even tells if her son Ryan has been naughty, giving instructions about which toys he can play with.
Rick, 24, has given up his job as a mechanic to look after their children Ryan, three, and Holly, one, and is now training to be Michelle’s full-time carer. Ryan was old enough to know his mummy was unwell but Holly was too young to understand. But she responds really well to Michelle.
To keep her involved in family life, when one of the children needs new clothes Rick will ask for her opinion using the alphabet board. Although it can take minutes to spell out each word the family and nurses wait patiently as it is her only means of communication.
Last month her best friends organized a sponsored running, which raised almost £17,000.
She has been in hospital for almost a year and has left twice, once for her brother’s wedding and once for a fund-raising event.
Doctors say it is hard to predict her future but she is showing slight signs of improvement. She has started to gain control of her mouth and tongue and can now move her head slightly.
1.The devastating “locked-in syndrome” must be a disease caused by _________.
A. being buried alive B. a kind of cancer
C. sudden brain damage D. the problem of blood
2.It is true that Michelle ________.
A. can no longer express herself B. used to be a woman in poor health
C. can manage her own message D. is good at talking with her eyes
3.Arrange the time order of the following events.
a. Rick gave up his job as a mechanic.
b. Michelle suffered a series of splitting headache.
c. Michelle’s best friends organized a running.
d. The tragedy happened while bathing Holly.
e. Michelle showed her yes and no by blinking
A. a-b-c-d-e B. b-e-c-a-d C. d-b-e-a-c D. b-d-e-a-c
4.The author tells the story of Michelle in order to ______.
A. inform of a rare disease and draw attention to its victim
B. describe the terrible life condition of a patient’s family
C. show the wonderful results of family love to a patient
D. tell about the ever-lasting truth: health is above wealth
