The human body is a living machine ,and, like all machines, it needs fuel to supply it with energy. This is provided by the food we eat. But how much do we need to stay healthy?
The energy value of food is usually measured in calories. A calorie is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 kg of water by 1℃.The number of calories people need per day is different, as the chart below shows. Also, the number of calories you use at any moment normally depends on the activity you are in. For example, you need more calories for standing than for sitting, more for running than for walking, and so on.
The energy in food is mainly in the form of three kinds of chemical materials—carbohydrate(糖類),protein and fat. Carbohydrate provides 3.8 Cal/gm(calories per gram) of energy, protein 4.0 Cal/gm and fat 8.8 Cal/gm. Each food contains different amounts of these materials, as the second chart shows.
Chart Ⅰ
CALORIES NEEDED PER DAY | |
BABY | 750 |
OFFICE WORKER | 2 700 |
CHILD AGED 8 | 2 100 |
WOMAN FEEDING BABY | 2 700 |
MAN OVER 70 | 2 100 |
BOY AGED 16 | 3 000 |
WOMAN | 3 600 |
FARMER | 2 600 |
Chart Ⅱ
| FAT | PROTEIN | CARBOHYDRATE |
MILK | 30% | 30% | 40% |
RICE | 5% | 10% | 85% |
PEANUTS | 60% | 30% | 10% |
1.____ calories are required to raise the temperature of 5 kg of water from 35 ℃ to 90 ℃?
A.55 B.175 C.325 D.275
2.If you lack for calories to support your running activities you’d better take more ____.
A. milk B. peanuts C. rice D. milk and rice
3.We may learn from the charts that ____.
A. a child aged eight requires more than 3 times the amount of calories that a baby does
B. a boy aged sixteen requires nearly twice the amount of calories that a boy aged eight does
C. a mother with a baby to feed uses up more calories than a hard-working farmer each day
D. an old man needs less calories than an 8-year-old boy on account of his less movement
4.Which of the following statements agrees with the passage and the charts above?
A. You need more calories for swimming that for mountain climbing.
B. If you take an equal amount of Vitamin containing the calories you need, you don’t need to eat any food at all.
C. Different people need different amounts of energy depending on their age, sex and the activities they are in.
D.3 grams of milk provides 16.6 calories because carbohydrate provides 3.8 Cal/gm, protein 4.0 Cal/gm, and fat 8.8 Cal/gm.

Dieters' who eat meals high in protein might lose a bit more weight than those who get less protein and more carbohydrates (碳水化合物)一all other things being equal, a new analysis of past studies suggests. Researchers found that over an average of 12 weeks, people having a high一protein diet lost about 1.8 extra pounds, and more body fat, than those having a standard-protein diet.
Wycherley from the University of South" Australia in Adelaide, the lead author on the study says it’s possible that the body may spend more energy and bum more calories while dealing with protein, compared to carbohydrates. Another explanation for the link his team observed is that eating protein helps preserve muscle mass and muscle mass bums more calories, even when the body is resting, than other types of mass. He says people in the studies tend to get protein from a variety of animal and vegetable sources. Vegetable sources of protein include beans.
It is not obvious why a higher protein-to-carbohydrate ratio might help people lose more pounds——and one obesity researcher not involved in the new analysis questioned whether the trials were strong enough to make that conclusion. “The studies are generally far too short to tell effect,” Dr. James Levine from the Mayo Clinic in Scottsdale, Arizona, told Reuters Health in an e-mail. But given the limitations of the present evidence, Levine said, “It makes no real difference which of the weight-loss ways one chooses.”
1.According to Wycherley’s analysis, dieters should take in more ______.
A. fat B. carbohydrates C. protein D. calories
2.What can we learn from the studies?
A. It bums more calories to deal with carbohydrates.
B. Protein helps keep muscle mass which bums calories.
C. Vegetables contain more protein than animals.
D. No more calories are burned while the body is resting.
3.What is Levine’s attitude towards the conclusion of the studies?
A. Doubtful. B. Supportive. C. Curious. D. Agreeable.
