are advertised on its TV channels,radio stations and websites will have to meet the company's nutrition standard for limiting calories and reducing fat,sodium and sugar.Many foods,such as fruit drinks,candy and snack cakes,won't meet the standard.First Lady Michelle Obama called it a“game changer”.“Disney is doing what no major media company has ever done before in the U.S.-and what I hope every company will do in the future.”“This is a landmark(里程碑),because a major media company is taking responsibility for what food they advertise to children.”says Margo Wootan,director of nutrition policy for the Center for Science in the Public Interest.“This should be a real wake-up call to Nickelodeon(an American children's channel)and the Cartoon Network to do the same.”But the company will still be able to advertise“better-for-you versions(种类)of products that are not perfectly nutritious.”Under the new standards,breakfast cereals that are advertised will have to contain fewer than 10 grams of sugar in a serving,Wootan says.“That's a good step forward,but it's not perfectly nutritious.”Jon Leibowitz,chairman of the Federal Trade Commission,says Disney is making this move“at perhaps some risk of affecting their incomes,so that's why we should praise them.”Food marketing is really“important because it shapes the way kids are fed,”Wootan says.“If we don't deal with food marketing to kids,we don't have any chance of addressing childhood obesity.”Currently,a third of children are overweight,putting them at a greater risk for serious health problems.At its theme parks,Disney began offering healtheir kids' meals,serving carrots and other vegetables,fruits,low-fat milk and yogurt at meals,instead of fries and soft drinks.1.The underl ined word “it” in Paragraph 3 probably

fish further and further away from the shore.Then they had a big challenge—how to keep the fish fresh for longer.So they decided to keep the fish stored in freezers on the boats.But the public did not like frozen fish.So again the fishing companies had a new bigger challenge.What they decided to do was have fish tanks on their boats.After catching fishes,they would put them in the tanks and keep them living there until they got back to shore.But in this protected environment,lacking predators(掠食者),the fish stopped moving around.The Japanese public felt these dull fish did not taste fresh,which had an unpleasant effect upon sales.Once again the fishing companies had an even bigger challenge...Stop for a minute!Before we go any further,I would like to ask “What are your challenges?How do you handle an unexpected challenge?”May I think it this way that you should try to attack your challenges?Conquer them with a Swiss Army knife.Take the most proper and simple tool that you can adopt to deal with your situation.Now back to our story.How did the Japanese finally figure out the fresh fish problem?Sharks!You might think the same.Sharks were caught and put into the tanks with other fishes.Don't sharks eat fish?Well,they do eat a few fish,but they did also keep more fish active and alert(警觉的).The fish stay fresh because they arechallenged.Now,try_to_keep_yourself_fresh_by_finding_your_own_shark_to_offer_yourself_a_challe nge_in_your_own_business_and_career.6.The main reason for the fishing companies to fish in the far sea
