Never eat more than you can lift.能拿多少，就吃多少。Miss PiggyThere is no sincerer love than the love of food.没有什么爱比对食物的爱更为真诚。George Bernard ShawTell me what you eat，and I will tell you who you are.告诉我你平时吃什么，我就能说出你是怎么样的一个人。Brillat­SavarinOne cannot think well，love well，sleep well，if one has not dined well.一个人如果吃不好，就无法好好思考、好好去爱、好好睡觉。Virginia WoolfPart of the secret of success in life is to eat what you like and let the food fight it out inside.人生成功的一部分秘诀是，吃下爱吃的东西，然后让食物在肚子里斗争到底。Mark TwainThe culture of food and dining in the West is a little different from that in China.The proper western dinner at a fine restaurant is one of the manners，focusing on conversation.You are expected to have knowledge of table manners such as what fork or knife to use as these are essential in western dining.The meal would consist of several courses including a soup or salad，an appetizer，the main dish，and a dessert.The atmosphere will be filled with light music that would only serve as background as people converse with each other.The decorations are usually sparse and are only meant to highlight the atmosphere that is being created by the music.This type of dining is different from the dining experience in most restaurants in China.Sometimes people are curious to know what type of food is healthy and what kind of food may hurt our health.As a result of years of research，we know that too much fat is bad for our health.For example，Americans eat a lot of meat and only a small amount of grains，fruits，and vegetables.Because of this，they often get cancer and heart disease.In Japan，on the other hand，people eat large amounts of grains and very little meat.They also have a very low rate (比率) of cancer and heart disease.In fact，the Japanese live longer than people in any other country.Unfortunately，when Japanese people move to the United States，the rate of heart disease and cancer increases as their diet changes.What's more，as hamburgers and other high­fat foods become common in Japan，the rate of heart disease and cancer is increasing there as well.People are also eating more meat and dairy products in other countries such as Cuba and Hungary.It's no surprise that the disease rate in these countries is increasing along with the change in diet.Therefore，doctors everywhere advise people to eat more grains，fruits，and vegetables，and eat less meat and dairy products.探索发现1Find out the main idea of the passage and then think of a proper title for it.The passage is mainly about healthy eating.The proper title for it is “Healthy eating”2Find out the reason why Americans often get cancer and heart disease.Americans eat a lot of meat and only a small amount of grains，fruits，and vegetables.3What should we eat?More grains，fruits，and vegetables，and eat less meat and dairy products.2/2
