A report by the National Health Commission(委员会)showed the health condition(状况) of Chinese people recently.
About 34. 3 percent of the Chinese aged 18 and older are overweight(超重的), and 16. 4 percent of people in the same age group are obese(过度肥胖的). Of children aged between 6 and 17, about 11 percent are overweight and almost 8 percent are obese. More than 10 percent of children under 6 are either obese or overweight.
"The rates(比率)of obesity and being overweight in China are growing fast. It brings many problems to the country, " said ZhaoWenhua, a health expert.
"Having many kinds of food high in sugar and oil and few vegetable sand fruit is the main reason for the rising weight(体重)of Chinese people, "she added.
These days Chinese people are living an unhealthy life, They move less because they don't need to walk much on their way to work or home, and what's more, they spend lots of time using smartphones, according to Zhao.

To help people live healthily, food factories should make more healthy food, and at the same time, people should learn the importance of health, how to have healthy eating habits and how to exercise properly.
Have you ever heard of a famous charity called Operation Smile?We hope we can help you understand how we are trying to help children all over the world.
Operation Smile was started by a doctor and his wife. In 1982, together with some volunteers,they went to Philippines to help children who had holes in their lips (嘴唇) or inside their mouths. It was very difficult for them to eat and drink. These volunteers worked very hard. But they worried that they could not carry on with the work because they have run out of money. Then they decided to start a charity so that they could help these needy children. They called it Operation Smile. Operation Smile works in more than twenty developing countries and has cured over 10000 children who have problems with their mouths. Operation Smile has won many prizes for its work . On the other hand, Operation Smile trains local doctors and nurses in developing countries so that they can continue to help children when Operation Smile has left.
As to the children with much more serious problems, they will send them to America for further treatment. So show your kindness and generosity (慷慨) to the needy children now. You can send your donation to Operation Smile at local banks. Many thanks from the children who can smile now.
