单选题{{B}}Passage 3{{/B}}
Increasingly, over the past ten years,
people—especially young people—have become aware of the need to change their
eating habits, because much of the food they eat, particularly processed food,
is not good for the health. Consequently, there has been a growing interest in
natural foods.Foods which do not contain chemical additives (添加剂) and which
have not been affected by chemical fertilizers, widely used in farming
today. (79) {{U}}Natural foods, for example, are vegetables, fruit
and grain which have been grown in soil that is rich in organic (有机的) matter.
{{/U}}In simple terms, this means that the soil has been nourished by unused
vegetable matter, which provides it with essential vitamins and minerals. This
in itself is a natural process compared with the use of chemicals and
fertilizers, the main purpose of which is to increase the amount—but not the
quality—of foods grown in commercial farming areas. Natural
foods also include animals which have been allowed to feed and move freely in
healthy pastures(牧场). Compare this with what happens in the mass production of
poultry: there are farms, for example, where thousands of chickens live crowded
together in one building and are fed on food which is little better than
rubbish. Chickens kept in this way are not only tasteless as food, they .also
lay eggs which lack important vitamins. There are other aspects of
healthy eating which are now receiving increasing attention from experts on
diet. Take, for example, the question of sugar. This is actually a non-essential
food! Al though a natural alternative, such as honey, can be used to sweeten
food if it is necessary, we can in fact do without it. It is not that sugar is
harmful in itself. But it does seem to be addictive: the quantity we use has
grown steadily over the last two centuries and in Britain today each person
consumes an average of 200 pounds a year! Yet all it does is to provide us with
energy, in the form of calories. There are no vitamins in it, no minerals and no
fiber. (80) {{U}}It is significant that nowadays fiber is
considered to be an important part of a healthy diet. {{/U}}In white bread, for
example, the fiber has been removed.But it is present in unrefined flour and of
course in vegetables. It is interesting to note that in countries where the
national diet contains large quantities of unrefined flour and vegetables,
certain diseases are comparatively rare. Hence the emphasis is placed on the
eating of whole meal bread and more vegetables by modem experts on "healthy
eating".
