　　Fruit and Vegetable Juices

　　as Beneficial to Health as Fruits and Veggies1

　　A European study has revealed that 100 percent fruit and vegetable juices are as effective as their whole fruit/vegetable counterparts in reducing risk factors related to certain diseases. The conclusion is the result of the study designed to question traditional thinking that 100 percent juices play a less significant role in reducing risk for both cancer and cardiovascular disease than whole fruits and vegetables.

　　Juices are comparable in their ability to reduce risk compared to2 their whole fruit/ vegetable counterparts, according to several researchers in the United Kingdom who conducted the literature review. The researchers analyzed a variety of studies that looked at risk reduction attributed to3 the effects of both fiber and antioxidants. As a result, they determined that the positive impact fruits and vegetables offer come not from just the fiber but also from antioxidants which are present in both juice and the whole fruits and vegetables.4

　　When considering cancer and coronary heart diseases prevention, there is no evidence that pure fruit and vegetable juice sare less beneficial than whole fruit and vegetables, the researchers said. The researchers added that the positioning of juices as being nutritionally inferior to6 whole fruits and vegetables in relationship to chronic disease development is unjustified and that policies, which suggest otherwise about fruit and vegetable juices, should be re-examined.

　　The researchers who authored the paper suggest that more studies in certain area are needed to bolster their findings. Although this independent review of the literature is not designed to focus on any particular 100 percent juice, it does go a long way7 in demonstrating that fruit and vegetable juices do play an important role in reducing the risk of various diseases, especially cancer and cardiovascular disease, said Sue Taylor. Her opinion is in agreement withs the Juice Products Association9 , a non-profit organization not associated with this research. She added that appropriate amounts of juices should be included in the diet of both children and adults, following guidelines established by leading health authorities. Taylor also points to a large epidemiological study, published in the September 2006 issue of the Journal of Medicine, which found that consumption of a variety of 100 percent fruit and vegetable juices was associated with a reduced risk for Alzheimers disease10.

　　In fact, that study found that individuals who drank three or more servings of fruit and vegetable juices per week had a 76 percent lower risk of developing Alzheimers disease than those who drank juice less than once per week. The study was published in the International Journal of Food Science and Nutrition TM .

　　4.As a result，they determined that the positive impact fruits and vegetables offer come not from just the fiber but also from antioxidants which are present in both juice and the whole fruits and vegetables.他們斷定，水果和蔬菜所起的積極作用不僅來自纖維，而且也來自抗氧化劑，而無論水果還是蔬菜，其全果和汁液都含有這兩種物質(zhì)。這里要注意的是在語法結(jié)構(gòu)上，fruits and vegetables offer是positive impact的定語從句，省略了關(guān)系代詞 that。

　　6.inferior to：低于的，次于的，不如的

　　7.it does go a long way：它的確對有很大幫助。go a long/good way：大有幫助，很有效。

　　答案與題解：

　　1.D 第二段第二句及第三句說到，降低患病危險(xiǎn)性的作用應(yīng)該歸功于果汁和全果均含有的纖維和抗氧化劑。其他A、B、，也就是不正確。

　　3.B 第四段第二句說到，果汁在降低患各種疾病中的確起著重要作用，尤其是癌癥和心血管疾病。這里in particular正是especilly的意思。

　　4.A 第四段最后一句說到，飲用果汁也與降低患阿爾茨海默病的危險(xiǎn)性有關(guān)。

　　5.B 第五段第一句說到，每周喝3～4份果汁的人與每周只喝一次以下的人相比，其患阿爾茨海默病的危險(xiǎn)性下降了76%，76%就是3/4，因此B項(xiàng)是正確答案。A項(xiàng)是高出23%，C項(xiàng)是每周喝一次的人的123%，D項(xiàng)是每周喝一次的人的176%，均不正確。
