I visited Mountain Dragon with several classmate today. We arrived at the foot of Mountain Dragon on half past nine and spend nearly one hour in climbing. We could see flowers and grass all the way up and the air in the mountain smelt very freshly. We did not feel tiring at all. When we got to the top, and we were all wet with sweat. We sat under a tall tree to have rest, drinking some water and eating anything. There were several temples in the mountain. We enjoyed the scenery for a long time because we had never seen it ago. It were really a beautiful mountain.

Here are five cooking habits that could be costing you important nutrients, causing you to overeat——or even making you sick.
Boiling vegetables
A 2015 review showed that boiling vegetables resulted in a high loss of vitamin C. 1. "If you're not drinking a soup, you're missing out on nutrients," says Nishta Saxena, a dietitian based in Toronto .
Washing chicken
While your favourite old cookbooks likely tell you to wash a chicken before cooking, this outdated advice is a safety risk. Cleaning meat in water may remove some of the bacteria, but it's also likely to pass it around your kitchen. 2. And clean your hands after you've finished the cooking.
Removing skins from fruits and vegetables
"Large amounts of nutrients are found in the skins." says Liz Powell, who is a dietitian from Vancouver. " Concern about chemical remains isn't a good enough reason to do the removing. 3."
Mixing everything
A smoothie (a mixed drink) is a smart way to eat some greens. 4. They're often short of protein and healthy fat. These things work together to keep us feeling full and satisfied. Without them, it's not really a balanced meal, Powell suggests adding some foods which contain protein or having a piece of wholewheat(全麦的)bread on the side.
Overdressing salads
We think we can add anything to salads, and they'll still be a nutritious choice. But it's just not true. If you're topping your bowl with dried strawberries and sweet cheese, you've easily added 30 grams of sugar to your so-called healthy lunch. 5.
A.You should choose healthy produce for your family.
B.But these kinds of drinks are likely to be unbalanced.
C.To stay safe, don't wash the meat when preparing it.
D.Cabbage. for example, loses about 33 % of its vitamin C.
E.Nuts are better choices to improve the taste of your greens.
F.The skins of potatoes contain more nutrients than its inside part.
G.Washing your produce will remove some chemicals from the surface.
