Radio and television are very popular in the world today． Millions of people watch TV．Perhaps more people listen to the radio．The TV is，of course，more useful than the radio． On TV you can see and hear what is hap-pening in the world．Now radio is still with us． And the number of listeners is becoming larger． One reason for this is the invention of the transistor(半导体) radio． A transistor radio is sometimes very small． It is very easy to carry． You can put one in your pocket and listen to it on the bus or on your bike when you go to work． It is better．for blind people． The sight(视力J) of many old peo-ple is not good enough to watch TV． Then，when people are working，they can't watch TV， but they can listen to music or news over the radio． What-s more，radio is much cheaper than TV．

第5题：
In the United States, 30 percent of the adult population has a "weight problem". To many people, the cause is obvious: we eat too much. But scientific evidence does little to support this idea. Going back to the America of 1910, we find that people were leaner than today, yet they ate more food. In those days people worked harder physically, walked more, used machines much less, and didn't watch TV.
Several modern studies, moreover, have shown that fatter people do not eat more on average than thinner people. In fact, some investigations, such as a 1979 study of 3, 545 London office workers, report that, on balance, fat people eat less than slimmer people.
Studies show that slim people are more active than fat people. A study by a research group at Stanford University found the following interesting fact:
The more the man ran, the greater loss of body fat.
The more they ran, the greater their increase in food intake.
Thus, those who ran the most ate the most, yet lost the greatest amount of body fat.

3、Is there scientific evidence to support that eating too much is the cause of a "weight problem"?____
