Vitamin(维生素)D is called “sunshine vitamin,”and it is very important to health,yet more Americans are not getting enough,U.S.researchers said on Monday.Researchers found that 75 percent of Americans can’t reach the levels of vitamin D,up from about 50 percent of them 20 years ago.Getting enough vitamin D can be easy:spend 10 minutes in the sun with legs and arms exposed (暴露),or take vitamin pills.
“But people’s habits have changed…they are less active and outdoors less,and also protecting their skin from the sun because of skin cancer risk(皮癌风险),”said Dr.Adit Ginde,who did the study.Traditionally, vitamin D has been seen important to bone(骨)health and to prevent rickets(软骨病),but recent discoveries show many kinds of cells(细胞)use vitamin D in some way, Ginde said.
Food can boost(提升)vitamin D levels,but only a few foods.Those include some kinds of fish(salmon,sardines,tuna and mackerel)and milk.But the amounts in milk are not enough to keep people healthy.In the last few years,vitamin D has gained more attention.People are paying a lot more attention to it.A second study in the journal supposed the idea of providing more vitamin D for bone health.Researchers did a research on some people aged 65 or older.They found that spinal bone fractures(脊椎断裂)decreased(卜降)20 percent when the patients took vitamin D every day.
Researcher Heike Bischoff-Ferrari wrote in the report.”it is possible for people to increase the amount of vitamin D earlier to keep healthy.”

My good friends, if you ‘re too busy , maybe it’s time you slowed down and enjoyed a meal with a friend. Try to get away from fast food and choose slow food.
For years, the pace(节奏)of life has increased for many people. They are too busy to cook.Luckily, there are business people who take the chance to provide a “fast ” way to deal with the problem. You can go to the supermarket and buy cooked food. All you have to do is to heat it and you can enjoy your meal in 10 minutes.
Still too slow ? OK, just go to a fast-food restaurant , order your meal and within 5 minutes it will be made for you.
The problem is health. Fast food has much more fat, sugar,salt, oil and calories (卡路里), and far fewer vitamin's(维生素)than homemade food. And so, since people have always wanted to live longer,a small but growing population is choosing not only fresh food, but also organic(有机的)food.
Another reason for changes in eating habits is social. Over the centuries,mealtime has been used to visit , laugh and learn. However, today most of us are having a very different lifestyle! Some people have realized it and they are looking for ways to return to that. Goodbye, McDonald’s.
Finally, it makes you feel good to plan your meal, cook your meal and see your meal looking like the picture in your cook book. So if you’re too busy, maybe it’s time you slowed down and enjoyed a homemade meal.
1Why do many people buy cooked food in the supermarket ?
A. It’s delicious. B. They think it’s a fashion to eat it.
C. It saves them time. D.it save them money.

A. five . B.fifteen. C.eight. D. fifth
