5 . In recent years there has been a steady attack on salt from the doctors; salt is bad for you-regardless of your health. Politicians also got aboard. “There is a direct relationship” Us Congressman Neal Smith said “between the amount of sodium (钠) a person consumes and heart disease circulatory (循环的) disorders stroke and even early death.”

Frightening if true! But many doctors and medical researchers are now beginning to feel the salt scare has gone too far. “All these remarks and cry about salt is unnecessary” Dr. Dustan insists. “For most of us it probably does not make much difference how much salt we eat.”

Dustan's most recent short-term study of 150 people showed that those with normal blood pressure experienced no change at all when placed on an extremely low-salt diet or later when salt was reintroduced. Of the hypertensive (高血压的) patients however half of those on the low-salt diet did experience a drop in blood pressure which returned to previous level when salt was reintroduced.

“An adequate to somewhat excessive (过度的) salt intake has probably saved many more lives than it has cost in the general population.” said Dr. John H Laragh. “So an opinion that the whole population should avoid salt makes no sense.”

Medical experts agree that everyone should practice reasonable “moderation” (节制) in salt consumption. For the average person a moderate amount might run from four to ten grams a day or roughly 1/2 to 1/3 teaspoons. One to two grams of salt would come from the natural sodium in food. The rest would be added in processing preparation or at the table.

“Na is not your enemy” says Comek's Dr. Laragh. “Salt is the No.1 natural component of all human tissue and the idea that you do not need it is wrong. Unless your doctor has proven that you have a salt-related health problem, there is no reason to give it up.”

6 . 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

In 2017, eleven million deaths worldwide     1     (link) to people eating diets high in sugar, salt and processed meat. Those foods were partly     2     (blame) for heart disease, cancer and diabetes, a new study found,     3     followed eating trends in 195 countries from 1990 to 2017. The findings were reported in the publication The Lancet. Researchers considered 15 dietary elements (因素), such as diets low in fruits, vegetables, whole grains     4     milk. They also looked at diets high in red meat, processed meat, and sugar-sweetened drinks.

“Poor diet is     5     (responsibility) for more deaths than any other risk factor in the world,” said Chris Murray,    6     (direct) of the Institute for Health Metrics (指标) and Evaluation at the University of Washington. The study found people ate only 12 percent of the recommended amount of nuts and seeds―an average intake of 3 grams a day. For good health,     7     (expert) say you should eat 21 grams of nuts and seeds every day.

The study also found that people drank more than 10 times the recommended amount of sugary drinks. Another study     8     (publish) in January suggested     9     “perfect diet” for the health of people and the planet would include a doubling of the consumption of nuts, fruits, and vegetables. Such a diet would also include     10     (drop) by half the amount of meat and sugar consumed.

7 . It’s reported that scientists in London have found the best diet for both humans and the planet.

If the world followed the so-called “planetary health” diet, each year more than ll million early deaths could be avoided according to the scientists. For the health of the planet, they say the same diet will reduce (减少) greenhouse gases and save more land, water and animals. This new food plan is the result of a three-year project organized by The Lancet health journal.

Tim Lang, a professor at Britain’s University of London. He said, “The food we eat and how we produce it decide the health of people and the planet.” Lang added, The world’s population is expected to grow to 10 billion people by 2050. If we want to feed everyone, we all need to change what we eat and the way we eat by improving food production and reducing food waste”. So, what do you eat on the “planetary health” diet?

The scientists who created the “planetary health” diet say it is largely plant-based but still has a little milk, fish and meat. The diet calls for cutting down red meat and sugar by 50 percent and increasing nuts, fruits, and vegetable.

Walter Willet of Harvard University in the United States also talked about the “planetary health” diet. He said, “More than 800 million people around the world do not get enough food while many more people have very unhealthy diets.”

The scientists think it difficult to reach their aim. But for them, doing nothing is also not a choice Willet said, “If we can’t make the best diet, it’s better to try and get as close as we can.”

1. What decides the health of people and the planet according to Tim Lang?

A．The taste of the food.

B．The number of population.

C．The climate and our living conditions.

D．The food we eat and the way we produce it.

2. What does the “planetary health” diet mainly contain?

A．Milk.	B．Meat.

3. What do scientists say about the “planetary health” diet?

A．It is very easy to produce it.

B．It is better to try their best to make it.

C．It is better to do nothing than fail.

D．It is impossible to make it.

4. What is the best title for the text?

A．Humans Health Is Very Important.

8 . When was the last time you used plastic plates? Next time, why not try some edible ones? You’ll help the environment and your guests won’t go hungry.

“I used to work in school catering and saw a lot of money being thrown away. I thought that was criminal, so I decided to do something about it,” said Italian school chef Tiziano Vicentini.

Now, Vicentini has an amazing range of edible plates for schools. The plates are made out of bread dough, so you can eat them afterwards. “These dishes cost a few pennies each and are either eaten by the kids, or go into recycling bins for animal food,” explained Vicentini, 50, of Milan.

But now other companies are developing edible plates, too. The Edible Plate Company offers edible plates, bowls, trays and cups. Their products are environmentally-friendly, 100% biodegradable and can be used for all types of catering and home use. And they’re made from a natural plant. After use, they can be fed to animals or left to degrade naturally. They also have a range of cutlery (餐具）made from corn and potato starch (淀粉).

These plates will also help reduce the amount of plastic we create. Waste from plastic causes damage to the environment, costing governments millions in waste management. Plastic bags often end up in landfill sites. And the burning of plastic waste causes toxic gases that pollute the air.

In response to this, governments around the world are introducing tough recycling regulations. And many shops are offering biodegradable plastic bags and eco-safe packaging on their products. To help matters, the International Organization for Standardization (the ISO) has also developed a system to evaluate the biodegradability of products, with a certification and logo scheme. Meanwhile, how about a nice plate for lunch?

1. Which of the following is not the advantage of edible plates?

A．They are expensive.	B．They can degrade naturally.
C．They are environmentally-friendly.	D．They are made from natural plant.

2. Which of the following statements is true?

A．Tiziano is from Germany.

B．Edible plates are only used for school catering,

C．Corn and potato starch can be used to make cutlery.

D．The Edible Plate Company doesn’t produce edible bowls.

3. What does the underlined word “this” refer to?

A．The air pollution.

B．The edible cutlery.

C．The toxic gases caused by the burning of plastic.

D．The damage to the environment caused by plastic waste.

4. What is the main idea of this passage?

A．The measures to stop the pollution.

B．The ways to reduce the plastic waste.

C．How to make edible plates from natural plants.

D．The plate solution to eating and environmental problem.
