　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 B

　　　 An apple a day keeps the doctor away. Well, milk may work in the same way!

　　　 Milk is the natural food for mammalian(哺乳动物的) babies. It helps them grow strong because it is rich in proteins(蛋白质), calcium(钙)and vitamins(维生素).

　　 “Mum asked me to drink milk when I was eight because she thought it would help me grow tall and strong,” said 15-year-old Fu Xiao from Xi’an. “I didn’t know how fast I was growing until I found I was the second tallest girl in my class.”

　　　 Do you know how tall the Junior 3 student is? 169 cm!

　　　 Milk can also help you sleep better because it calms you down.

　But remember to drink milk with care. Make sure it’s fresh and hasn’t gone bad.

Don’t drink milk when your stomach is empty. Eat some bread or corn at the same time. This will help you take in more proteins and vitamins.

　　 Doctors say teens need at least 500 ml milk a day. That’s two to three cups.

　　 Milk-drinking started long ago, as early as 6,000-8,000 BC. At that time people started to keep cows, sheep and goats to get their milk.

　　 Of course what you drink today isn’t that fresh from cow.

　　 People cool the fresh milk down to four degrees Celsius(摄氏的) to stop the bacteria(细菌) growing. In factories, milk is pasteurized(灭菌) to stop it going bad. After disinfection(消毒) and packaging, it is sent to the supermarkets.

　　 Yogurt(酸奶) also comes from milk.

　　 People make some special bacteria to change the taste of milk and make the nutrients(营养物) in it easier for people to take in. Maybe that’s why it’s getting more popular with people!
