The average person swallows about half a ton of food a year—not counting drink—and though the body is remarkably efficient at extracting just what it needs from this huge mixture, it can only cope up to a point. If you go on eating too many of some things and not enough of others, you’ll eventually get out of condition and your health will suffer. So think before you start eating. It may look good. It may taste good. Fine! But how much good is it really doing you? What you eat and the way it affects your body depend very much on the kind of person you are. For one thing, the genes you inherit from your parents can determine how your body metabolism(新陈代谢) copes with particular foods. The tendency to put on weight rather easily, for example, often runs in the family—which means that they have to take particular care. And your parents may shape your future in another way. The way you are brought up shapes some basic attitudes to food—like whether you have a sweet tooth, nibble between meals, take big mouthfuls or eat chips with everything. Eating habits, good or bad, tend to get passed on. And then there is your lifestyle. How much you spend on food (time as well as money) , how much exercise you get—these can alter the balance between food and fitness. And finally, both your age and your sex may affect this balance. For example, you’ re more likely to put on weight as you get older, especially if you’ re a woman. So everybody is different and the important thing is to know yourself.

Be careful of those who use the truth to deceive people. When someone tells you something that is true, but leaves out important information that should be included, he can create a false impression. For example, someone might say, “I just won a hundred dollars on the lottery(彩票). It was great. I took that dollar ticket back to the store and turned it in for one hundred dollars!“ This guy’ s a winner, right? Maybe yes, maybe no, we then discovered that he bought two hundred tickets, and only one was a winner. He’ s really a big loser! He didn’ t say anything that was false, but he deliberately omitted important information. That’ s called a half-truth. Half-truths are not technically lies, but they are just as dishonest. Untrustworthy candidates in political campaigns often use this strategy. Let’ s say that during Governor Smith’ s last term, her state lost one million jobs and gained three million jobs. Then she seeks another term. One of her opponents runs an ad saying, “ During Governor Smith’ s term, the state lost one million jobs!“ That’ s true. However, an honest statement would have been, “During Governor Smith’ s term, the State had a net gain of two million jobs. “ Advertisers will sometimes use half-truths. It’ s against the law to make false claims so they try to mislead you with the truth. An ad might boast (自夸) , “ Nine out of ten doctors recommend Yucky Pills to cure nose pimples (疙瘩). “ It fails to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Corporation. This kind of deceiving happens too often. It’ s a sad fact of life: Lies are lies, and sometime the truth can be a lie as well.

Technology companies usually focus on their employee benefits around making people stay in the office longer: ping-pong tables, game rooms, on-site training rooms: some even offer laundry services. We, ABC Company, don’ t do any of these. Instead, we focus on benefits that get people out of the office as much as possible. We designed our benefit system to reflect that. Here are some of the benefits we offer to get people away from the computer: * Vacations: For the last three years in a row, we’ ve worked with a professional travel agent to prepare different travel packages that employees could choose from as a holiday gift. Everything is paid for and included. Specific, pre-arranged trips—whether for a family to go to Disneyland or a couple to tour Spain—have helped make sure people actually take their vacations. * 4-day Summer Weeks: From May through October, everyone who’ s been with the company for more than a year gets to work just four days in a week. This started out as “Friday s off , but roles like customer support and operations need to cover all hours. To come up with the best ideas, you need a fresh mind. These travel and time-off benefits help everyone stay sharp.
