Eating Potatoes Gives Your Immune System a BoostEating potatoes is not only good for bowel health,but also for the whole immune system,especially when they come in the form of a potato salad or eaten cold.In a study on an animal model,researchers in Spain found that pigs fed large quantities of raw potato starch(RPS)not only had a healthier bowel,but also decreased levels of white blood cells,such as leucocytes and lymphocytes in their blood .White blood cells are produced as a result of inflammation or disease, generally when the body is challenged.The general down-regulation of leucocytes observed by the Spanish researchers suggests an overali beneficial effect,a generally more healthy body.The reduction in leucocyte levels was about 15 percent. Lower lymphocyte levels are also indicative of reduced levels of inflammation, but the observed reduction in both lymphocyte density and lymphocyte apoptosis is surprising.In what was the longest study of its kind,pigs were fed RPS over 14 weeks to find out the effect of starch on bowel health."The use of raw potato starch in this experiment is designed to simulate the effects of a diet high in resistant starch,"said study leader Jose Francisco Perez at the Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona,Spain.Humans do not eat raw potatoes,but they do eat a lot of foods that contain resistant starch,such as cold boiled potatoes,legumes,grains,green bananas,pasta and cereals.About 1 0 percent of the starch eaten by human is resistant starch-starch that is not digested in the small intestine and so is shunted into the large intestine where it ferments .Starch consumption is thought to reduce the risk of large bowel cancer and may also have an effect on irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).Immunology expert Lena Ohman's team previously found that the overall lymphocyte levels do not vary for IBS patients,but that lymphocytes are transferred from the peripheral blood to the gut,which support the hypothesis of IBS being at least partially an inflammatory disorder. She says the decrease in lymphocytes observed by the Spanish is therefore interesting,and a diet of resistant starch may be worth trying in lBS patients.Ohman is currently at the Department of Internal Medicine,Goteborg University,Sweden.The study is published in the journal Chemistry and Industry,the magazine of the SCI. What form of potato is the most nutrient to the human body?A: Potato soup.B: Potato cake.C: Potato salad.D: Hot boiled potato.

New Foods and the New WorldIn the last 500 years,nothing about people—not their clothes,ideas,or languages—has changed as much as what they eat. The original chocolate drink was made from the seeds of the cocoa tree by South American Indians .The Spanish introduced it to the rest of the world during the 1500's .And although it was very expensive,it quickly became fashionable.In London,shops where chocolate drinks were served became important meeting places. Some still exist today.The potato is also from the New World. Around 1600,the Spanish brought it from Peru to Europe,where it soon was widely grown. Ireland became so dependent on it that thousands of Irish people starved when the crop failed during the“Potato Famine”of 1845—1846,and thou- sands more were forced to emigrate to America.There are many other foods that have traveled from South America to the Old World. But some others went in the opposite direction. Brazil is now the world's largest grower of coffee,and coffee is an important crop in Colombia and other South American countries.But it is native to Ethiopia. It was first made into a drink by Arabs during the 1400's.According to an Arabic legend,coffee was discovered when a person named Kaldi noticed that his goats were attracted to the red berries on a coffee bush.He tried one and experienced the “wide-awake”feeling that one-third of the world's population now starts the day with. Thousands of Irish people starved during the“Potato Famine”because______.A: they were so dependent on the potato that they refused to eat anything elseB: they were forced to emigrate to AmericaC: the weather conditions in Ireland were not suitable for growing the potatoD:.the potato harvest was bad

问答题Satire exists because there is need for it. It has lived because readers appreciate a refreshing stimulus, an irreverent reminder that they live in a world of platitudinous thinking, cheap moralizing, and foolish philosophy. Satire serves to prod people into an awareness of truth, though rarely to any action on behalf of truth. Satire tends to remind people that much of what they see, hear, and read in popular media is sanctimonious, sentimental, and only partially true. Life resembles in only a slight degree the popular image of it. Soldiers rarely hold the ideals that movies attribute to them, nor do ordinary citizens devote their lives to unselfish service of humanity. Intelligent people know these things but tend to forget them when they do not hear them expressed.
