2．I grew up in the countryside.I didn't understand what it brought to me until I became an adult（成年人）.It helped me learn more special skills than my peers（同齡人） who grew up in cities.
I learned to cook at about 10 years old.The first skills I learned was making dough（面團(tuán)）.Since my parents often came home late，a prepared dough would help my family have supper sooner.I thought it would be easy—just mix water and flour（面粉），right？Not quite!First I made the dough too soft.Then I made it too hard.But as I kept trying，I learned the trick.
Later，I cooked fried dishes and things like dumplings.I fell in love with cooking.It's a good way to relax.Besides cooking，I did a lot of farm work in my childhood.I got to know how to plant vegetables.Though it was hard work，the experience taught me things that many of my peers still don't know.For example，the part of a potato that has sprouts can be planted as a seed.I also learned that the fruits of peanut and ginger plant grow under the soil.I once discussed this with my friends from the city.They thought it was a pity that they didn't have the chance to learn these things in their lives.
Some might say we can learn these things from the textbooks.But it can't compare to the joy of learning firsthand，watching plants blossom and grow.It brings a new way to look at the world.You'll love everything on your plate.
This may be why I'm so happy to hear that labor education（勞動(dòng)教育） will be required in China.Starting with the coming term，students in primary and middle schools will have at least one class every week to learn basic household skills like cooking and cleaning.These special skills will help you for the rest of your life.

D．how to prepare supper
（2）What is paragraph 3 mainly about？

4．Sitting for hours at a time is dangerous and can even lead to death.Today，however，many people spend more time sitting than sleeping.
Researchers say that all the time spent at the desk，at the computer，or in front of the television is taking years off your life.Ancient humans spent their days hunting，working，and moving from place to place.So being active is what our bodies are designed for.As a rapid reaction （反應(yīng)） to this discovery，many people have begun using standing desks.However，this really isn't an answer to the question.
A standing desk is a desk specially designed for use without a chair.There are many kinds of them，including normal work desks and special standing computer desks.Researchers say that simply standing instead of sitting won't make your body much better.Standing only costs a few more calories than sitting and places more stress on your joints （關(guān)節(jié)） and back.The best way is to actually move around more.Take a walk around the office every half an hour.You can also walk over to your colleagues and talk to them instead of sending emails.
These are just a few ways to start moving more while at work.Outside of work，of course，be sure to do plenty of exercise.
