You might notice something new in the next few years as you watch Disney programs: Starting in 2015, there wont be any candy, sugary-cereal or fast-food advertisements aimed at kids. The Walt Disney Company on Tuesday became the first major media company to ban advertisements for junk food on its TV channels, radio stations and websites. In addition, Disney plans to make changes to its kids menus at theme parks and resorts. Fast-food options will be replaced with healthier choices, such as salads, apples, vegetables and yogurt. It hopes this will stop kids from making poor food choices. First Lady Michelle Obama called it a“game changer”that is sure to send a message to the rest of the childrens entertainment industry. “Just a few years ago, if you had told me or any other parents that our kids wouldnt see a single advertisement for junk food when they watched their favorite cartoons on a major TV network, we wouldnt have believed you. ”said the First Lady, who heads a campaign to help stop child obesity. In addition to candy bars and fast-food meals, other foods that dont meet Disneys nutritional standards will be banned from the companys kid-targeted media. Any cereal with 10 grams or more of sugar per serving will be off the air. There will be no advertisements for full meals of more than 600 calories. Juices with high levels of sugar and foods with too much salt will also be pulled. Even though many fast-food chains offer healthier options, like apples and salads, Disney said it could still deny the companies advertisements unless they offer a range of healthy options. Getting rid of junk-food ads could make it easier to keep a family on a healthy diet, says Nadine Haskell, a mother of two sons, “If they see an advertisement on TV, then the next time we go to the grocery store theyll say they want to try it. ”【文章大意】迪士尼公司决定停止做垃圾食品的广告, 并且给孩子们提供健康的饮食节目, 目的是让孩子去选择更健康的食品。1.

Two sisters named Mildred and Patty Hill wrote a song called Good Morning to All in 1893. Over a short period of time, people began to sing the words“happy birthday to you”in place of the original lyrics to the tune of the Hill sisterssong. A number of history experts say that there is no record of who actually wrote the Happy Birthday to You lyrics. Historians also say there is no way to know when the general public began singing the“Happy Birthday”song, but they believe it was being sung by the public long before it was printed and owned by a company. Nelsons lawyers say this piece of musics history proves that Happy Birthday to You belongs to everyone in the general public. That would mean Warner Music Group has no right to charge anyone a fee to sing the song in any setting. Experts estimate that Warner/Chappell, the publishing division of the Warner Music Group, has made about $2 million a year from licensing fees for Happy Birthday to You. Nelsons lawyers are asking a court in New York City to order Warner/Chappell to return fees they have collected over the past four years for the use of the“Happy Birthday”song. 【文章大意】电影制片人Jennifer Nelson因为在她的电影中使用了Happy Birthday to You这首歌, 而被Warner Music Group索要了1 500美元。这是因为Warner Music Group声称它具有这首歌的版权。5.
