Eat your vegetables. Cut back on snacks. Our parents are always nagging (唠叨) us to eat properly. When we are constantly reminded to choose healthy foods, the fun is taken out of eating. Sometimes it even makes you do just the opposite: eat junk.

　　Now there’s a nag-free reminder to eat healthily: the Healing Foods Pyramid.

　　Created by nutrition experts at the University of Michigan in the United States, the pyramid is fun, easy way to learn how to eat and what to eat.

　　The pyramid has strips in colors going from the left to the right. There are also pictures of all sorts of foods. “Study it for a while and you’ll remember which foods are really needed in your diet. You’ll see that dairy foods are kind of in the middle, and understand that you should probably eat less of them,” said Monica Myklebust, a nutrition expert.

　　“And learn that meat and chocolate are closer to the top, so you should eat even less of these foods. At the very base of the pyramid is water. We know that our bodies are more than 50 percent water, so water is very important to our lives.”

　　Pretty easy, isn’t it?

　　The pyramid also tells people that they should eat whole foods: tomatoes rather than tomato juice, oranges rather than orange juice. Juice has a lot less pulp (果肉) than the whole fruit, which is a good source of fiber. Juice quickly loses its natural vitamin C．

　　It’s called the Healing Foods Pyramid to emphasize the healing properties (特性) of the food. For example, fresh garlic can help fight colds, sore throats and ear infections.

　　“Food is medicine,” said Myklebust. “Foods have healing properties and we’ve included these foods in our pyramid.”

　　There is even a little blank space at the very top for your favorite treat — chocolate chip cookies or strawberry ice cream, for example. Treats heal, too, simply by making you feel good, Myklebust said. But remember, just once a day. And one scoop, not two, please.

1．According to the passage, which of the following is NOT right?

　　A．We should eat less of meat and chocolate.

    B．It’s better to eat oranges than orange juice.

　　C．Dairy foods are healthier, so we should eat more of them.

　　D．Water is very important to our lives.

2．The purpose of the writer to write the passage is_______.

　　A．to advertise a new kind of food

　　B．to persuade us not to eat junk food

　　C．to tell the readers food is medicine

　　D．to introduce the Healing Foods Pyramid

3．What can be inferred from the passage?

　　A．We should only eat healthy food.

　　B．Juice is better than the whole fruit.

　　C．We can eat what we like, but not too much.

　　D．Only when we are constantly reminded to choose healthy foods can we eat healthily.
