The widespread number of food scandals(丑闻)in China is making many people pause before they put their chopsticks in their mouths．They are wondering if the food they are eating is clean，healthy and nutritious(营养) or does it contain（包含） something harmful that will cause disease?
Most of the food we eat today is processed food(加工食品)．That means the foods we buy in stores and supermarkets，especially packaged foods，are prepared in factories．Chemicals are added to the foods in these factories to make them look better，taste better and last longer on the shelf．The chemicals are supposed to be harmless and there are laws that regulate(控制) which chemicals can and cannot be used．Unfortunately，some producers do not obey the laws．
A producer of steamed buns(馒头)in Zhejiang Province was recently discovered to be breaking the law．He was adding yellow dye and other banned chemicals to the buns．He was also taking old buns and using them to make new buns．Most of the buns were sold to schools and eaten by students…like you!
Why did he do it? Why did he break the law and endanger people’s health? The answer is simple：he wanted to make more money．It was a moral failing，and this is at the heart of the food scandals in China．Too many people focus on making money and not on the effects their actions can have on others．

Everyone needs friends. There is an old saying ,‘Friends are God’s way of taking care of us.” But how do you find real friend and keep it?
A Chinese writer Bai Xun tells young students some smart ways to find friends. She says finding friendship is just like planting a tree. You plant the seed and take care of it to make it grow.
First, you should choose a friend. What makes a good friend? It is not because a person has money or good looks .A good friend should be kind and patient .For example , if you have a bad day, a good friend should listen to your complaints and do his or her best to help you.
