Michele Gentile, an Italian bookseller,
is offering free books to children in exchange for
plastic bottles to recycle.
Michele owns Ex Libris Cafe in Polla
，
a small town in southern
Italy. He said he thought of
the
recycling program, because he wanted to inspire
children in the small town to read and pay
attention to the environment.

passion and love for books among those people in

While

There are around 600 ,00
vegans(

)in the UK.
That' s just over 1% of the population -
an amount expected to increase to 25%
by 2025. And if there's one type of food that
Brits love, it
is fast food. People in
the UK love it so much that there was a34%
increase in the number of fast
food
outlets from 2010 to 2018. It' s no surprise ,
then, that vegan fast food is also on the rise.
Vegan fast

has become big

And
big

such
as
McDonald's and KFC have
announced meat - free chicken nuggets(

the future.
What' s. driving this
popularity? Katrina Fox, founder of Vegan Business
Media, believes it' s
the result of the
breaking down of stereotypes(

).
“
Vegan food is no longer
seen as a bit
of lettuce and lentils -
you can eat pretty much anything
It's
also
claimed
that
there

to
a

version
of

food.
Something, he claims
，
that comes as a result of
the inherent nutritional value of the ingredients
they use.
But, is vegan fast
food actually healthy? Azmina Govindji of the
British Dietetic Association
says
“
not to
assume
“
It' s fine if those
products have got vitamin B12, iodine
or
calcium added to them..
but they can still be fried, it can still have
lots of creamy, fatty sauces and
lots
of salt.
Given the current growth in
orders, the trend for vegan fast food isn't likely
to disappear any
time soon, Health -
wise, it may not be any more nourishing than
regular fast food, but for many

the lack of
animal suffering involved in the process is a big
plus.

For decades, doctors have
warned patients that too much salt can be bad for
the heart. Heat
attack has long been
considered a grown - up problem, but a new
research suggests that salt
is
starting
to
affect
children.
Eating
too
much
salty
food
when
you
'
re
young
can lead
to
health
problems later.
Salt is
made up of two
elements: sodium and chlorine. Dietary guidelines
recommend that
adults and kids aged9 -
13 shouldn
’
t
consume more than about a teaspoon of salt daily.
The av-er
age American eats twice this
amount. This worries doctors because too much
sodium results in the
body
producing
more
blood.
To pump
the
extra
blood,
the
heart
has to
work
harder.
This
causes a rise in blood pressure a
measurement of how stressed the heart is. High
blood pressure
often leads to heart
disease.
A kid with high blood pressure
is more likely to become a grown - up with high
blood pres-
sure. Reducing salt might
also help stop childhood obesity(
肥胖
) . British researchers
recently
found that kids who eat less
salt also drink fewer sugary soft drinks. Drinking
fewer fizzy
drinks
makes
kids less likely to gain weight, become obese and
develop high blood pressure.
Salt
can affect
more
than just
your
heart and weight. A
recent
study
found
that
a growing
number of kids in
the US are suffering from kidney stones. This
painful condition usually affects
people aged over 40. Now, kids as young
as five are getting it.
Cutting down on
salt can be hard, but you can retrain yourself to
prefer less salty food. The
best way to
reduce the amount of sodium you eat is to make
changes gradually. Start by adding
half
as much salt to your dinner as you normally do.
Switch to fresh foods instead of canned
and
bottled
versions.
And
go
easy on
the
condiments(
调味品
).
You
might
also
want
to
start
reading
nutrition
labels.
You
may
be
surprised
to
learn
that
there
are 1,150
mg
of
sodium
in
a
double cheeseburger, and over 2 ,000 mg
in many frozen meals.
12. What is the
author' s major concern?
A. Children
eat too much salty food.
C. Americans
consume too much salt.
B. Many adults
suffer from heart attack.
D. Heart
attack is now a youth problem.
13. What
does the author refer to as the cause of childhood
obesity?
A. Eating more salty food.
C. Drinking many sugary soft drinks.
B. Lack of physical exercise.
D. Eating the same food as the
adults.
