13．（5分）    TOKYO，July 14，2024﹣How much salt do you like to put on your food？Salt makes food taste better.And our bodies need a small amount of salt to stay healthy.However，eating too much salt can be bad for our health.For example，it can increase the possibility of having a stroke.

The bad news is that a lot of people are eating too much salt nowadays.In Japan，people eat about ten grams of it a day.It is five grams more than the doctor suggests.But the good news is that now there may be an answer to this problem.An electric spoon can make food taste saltier than it really is!

Japanese drinks company Kirin Holdings has released the"Electric Salt Spoon".It uses electricity to increase the taste of salt in food by one and a half times.In 2021，Kirin surveyed people who had cut down on the amount of salt in their diet.It found 80% of them weren't happy with the taste of food with less salt.To solve the problem，Kirin developed the"Electric Salt Spoon".With the help of it，people can enjoy their meals without eating too much salt.

Kirin is also working on electric chopsticks.However，it decided to release electric spoons first because many people wanted to enjoy noodles and soup with stronger salty taste.Kirin plans to sell electric spoons around the world next year.It is expected（预期） that they will reach 1，000，000 people in five years.

B.People will get sick.

C.The food will taste better.

D.The food will go bad.

（2）How much salt does the doctor advise us to eat every day？
