The food guide pyramid(金字塔)was the model for healthy eating in the United States. Now it has been replaced(代替)by a colorful plate—called MyPlate—with some of the same messages: Eat different kinds of foods, and eat less of some foods and more of others.
The pyramid has six parts to show the five food groups and fats, oils and sweets. Basic(基本的)foods are at the bottom(底部)and include bread and rice. In two middle parts are vegetables and fruits. In two top parts are milk and cheese, and meat, fish, eggs and so on.
The plate has four parts: vegetables, fruits, grains, and protein, and a side order of dairy(乳制品)in blue. The big message is that fruits and vegetables take up half the plate and the vegetable part is a little bigger than the fruit part. The grain part is bigger than the protein part. The MyPlate seems to be encouraging us to eat different food groups at each meal.
First Lady, Michelle Obama, has introduced the plate. And she will use it with her family. She said the pyramid just wasn’t easy enough for parents and kids to follow.

It was a bright Saturday morning. I stopped at a café to enjoy a cup of coffee and read the morning newspaper. Suddenly, I felt a hand on the back of my jacket and heard someone say, “Hey Steve! How are you doing?”
Looking back, I saw a man. He looked familiar, but I couldn’t remember where we had met.
The young man also held a cup of coffee, so I asked him to join me. Very soon, his story began to thaw out my memory.
Five years earlier, Johnson was traveling home late on a February night. A heavy snow had arrived that afternoon, and by midnight, the snowdrifts(雪堆)were getting deep. His car was stuck in a snowdrift just down the road from my house.
He walked to my house for help. I helped him pull his car out of the snowdrift and up to the street where the snow had been cleaned away.
This was a normal happening here during the winter. I couldn’t count the times someone has helped me to pull my car from a snowdrift. However, it was an unforgettable experience for him. He was only eighteen at that time, and he said he was very afraid. No one wants to be stuck in a snowdrift at night.
Sometimes, one simple kindness at the right moment can change the direction of a life. So, be kind and helpful.
