Junk Food垃圾食品
I used to like junk food very much, but my mother doesn’t want me to eat it. Sometimes I would go to eat it secretly. I liked to eat the fries with ketchup most, I could eat a lot at one time.
我曾经非常喜欢垃圾食品,但是我妈妈不想让我吃。有时候我会偷偷跑去吃。我最喜欢吃薯条配番茄酱,我可以一次吃很多。
Once I went to KFC again, I ordered two large fries and a large iced coke. After finishing the meal, I felt ill in my stomach and throat. I was too afraid to tell my mother.
有一次我去KFC,点了两份大薯条和一大杯冰可乐。吃完了之后,我感到胃和喉咙很不舒服。我很害怕,不敢告诉妈妈。
In the evening I threw up and felt hot all over my body. My mother came to check me and found out I got a fever. She took me to the hospital immediately. Since then, I never touch the junk food again. The junk food is bad for health, we shouldn’t eat it.
当天晚上我就吐了,全身发热。我妈妈过来看我的时候发现我发烧了。她立刻就带我去了医院。从那以后,我绝不再碰垃圾食品了。垃圾食品对健康有害,我们不应该吃它。

A study published recently in the journal Cell Metabolism suggests that eating fatty or sugary snacks alters our brain activity and creates lasting preferences for these less healthy items.
近日发表在《细胞代谢》上的一项研究表明,吃高脂肪或高糖分的零食会改变我们的大脑活动,并使我们对这些不太健康的食物产生持久的偏好。
Sugary or fatty snacks change your brain activity
含糖或脂肪的零食会改变你的大脑活动
For the study, researchers at Yale University and the Max Planck Institute for Metabolism Research in Germany gave one group of participants a high-fat, high-sugar yogurt twice daily for eight weeks, while another got a low-fat, low-sugar version.
在这项研究中,耶鲁大学和德国马克斯·普朗克代谢研究所的研究人员给一组参与者服用了高脂高糖酸奶,每天两次,持续八周;而另一组参与者则服用了低脂低糖酸奶。
Aside from that, both groups continued their normal eating habits. At the end, the groups rated puddings with varying fat concentrations and apple juices with a range of sugar levels.
除此之外,两组人都保持着正常的饮食习惯。实验结束后,两组人分别品尝了不同脂肪浓度的布丁和不同含糖量的苹果汁,并做出评价。
The participants also underwent MRI scans. The scans showed that the treat increased brain activity in the group that had eaten the high-fat, high-sugar yogurt, but not in the other.
参与者还接受了核磁共振扫描。扫描结果显示,食用高脂高糖酸奶的那一组参与者的大脑活动有所增加,而另一组参与者则没有。
The researchers concluded that fatty, sugary snacks activate the brain's dopamine system, which gives people a feeling of motivation or reward.
研究人员因此得出结论,高脂高糖的零食会激活大脑的多巴胺系统,给人一种收获动力或受到奖励的感觉。
"Let's say a new bakery opens up next to your work and you start stopping in and having a scone every morning. That alone can rewire your basic fundamental dopamine learning circuits."
"比方说,在你工作的地方旁开了一家新的面包店,你开始每天早上去买烤饼。仅这一个小小的饮食习惯会重新连接你的多巴胺学习回路。"
Small said diet has such a strong effect on brain activity that dopamine signals can fire even when someone anticipates eating fatty or sugary food, like when they pass by a bakery or smell a pastry.
斯莫尔说,饮食对大脑活动有如此强烈的影响,以至于多巴胺信号即使在人们预期吃高脂或高糖食物时也会被激发,比如经过面包店或闻到糕点的味道时。
"It just tells us how sensitive we are to the food environment, and how the food environment can actually change our behavior."
"这表明大脑对食物环境有多敏感,以及食物环境是如何改变我们的行为的。"
1. dopamine [ do p mi n]
n. 多巴胺
e.g.
Dopamine is released during arousal.
多巴胺是在兴奋时释放的。
2. pastry [ pe str ]
n. 油酥面团;油酥点心
e.g.
The bread, pastry and mayonnaise are homemade.
面包、糕点和蛋黄酱都是自家做的。
