Ⅲ. 阅读理解
There is a famous English saying “You are what you eat.” It means what you put in your mouth will become part of you. Many experts (专家) use it to tell people it’s important to have a good eating habit. For example, parents tell kids not to eat too much sweet food. However, a team of American scientists find out something new about eating sweet food.
“When we say some people ‘sweet’, we mean they are kind and friendly to us. Maybe this word can help us learn more about people’s feelings and acts,” says Brian Meier, a scientist from the study team. “Tasting is something we do every day. What we do is to find whether we can know what people are like and their behaviour (行为) according to their taste.”
In one of their experiments (实验), the scientists ask students questions about themselves, like whether they are kind or not. And then the students make a list of their favourite food. According to their answers, the scientists find that the students who like sweet food are nice.
In their another experiment, the scientists find that people who like sweet food like cookies and chocolate are more ready to help other people in need, and those who eat non-sweet food like chips aren’t. For example, people who like sweet food often visit children in poor health in the hospitals. The result of the experiment is that people’s good acts have something to do with their taste for sweet food. So eating sweet food is a useful way to make people nice and helpful. Next time, try some ice cream.
