阅读理解 。

     Young people should be enjoying the best time of their lives, but those in their twenties and thirties

are in worse health than their parents, a British survey has found.

     Drinking too much, eating fast food and being short of exercise all have a bad influence on young

people. As a result, the young are more likely (可能的) to have headaches, catch colds or become

stressed than their parents.

     According to the survey, those aged between 18 and 34 are three times more likely to catch colds

than the older people. The following are the main reasons:

     The old people usually eat more healthily. More than four in ten old people eat five or more portions (份) of fruit or vegetables a day. It's two times the number of the young men and women. Six in ten old

people cook their own meals every day, compared to less than one third of the young people. Almost

10% of the young people admit (承认) that they eat fast food for every meal and 2% say they only eat

at restaurants.

     The old people are also more likely to take a lot of exercise. 12% of them spend at least 30 minutes

doing exercise each day. They are healthier. However, only 9% of the young do so.
