Nutritional statements that depend on o

题型:单项选择题

题目:

Nutritional statements that depend on observation or anecdote should be given serious consideration, but consideration should also be given to the physical and psychological quirks of the observer. The significance attached to an experimental conclusion depends, in part, on the scientific credentials of the experimentalist; similarly, the significance of selected observations depends, again in part, on the preconceptions of the observer.
Regimes that are proposed by people who do not look as if they enjoyed their food, and who do not themselves have a well-fed air, may not be ideal for normal people. Graham Lusk, who combined expert knowledge with a normal appreciation of good food, describes how he and Chittenden, who advocated a low-protein diet, spent some weeks in Britain eating the rations of the 1914-1918 war and then got more ample rations on board ship. Lusk attributed his sense of well-being to the extra meat he was eating; Chittenden attributed it to the sea air.
When young animals are reared for sale as meat, the desirable amount of protein in their food is a simple matter of economics. Protein is expensive, so the amount given is increased up to the level at which the increased rate of growth is offset by the increased cost of the diet. As already mentioned, the efficiency with which protein is used to build the body diminishes as the percentage of protein in the diet increases. In practice, the best diets seem to contain between 15 and 25 per cent protein. It is not certain that maximum growth rate is desirable in children; some experiments with rats suggest that rapid growth is associated with a shorter ultimate expectation of life.
There are practical and ethical obstacles to human experiments in which the effect of protein can be measured. Children do not grow as fast as the young animals in which there is a commercial interest. Their need for protein is therefore presumably smaller, but there is no evidence that the desirable protein level, after weaning, is less than 15 per cent. An argument against this percentage of protein is that in human milk only 13 per cent of the solid material is protein. That protein is, however, of better quality than any protein likely to be given to infants that are not weaned on cow’s milk.
Furthermore, milk, like other products of evolution, is a compromise. Mothers are not expendable. A species would not long survive if mothers depleted their own proteins so much in the course of feeding the first child that the prospects of later children were seriously jeopardized. Human milk is no doubt a good food, but the assumption that it is necessarily ideal is stretching belief in the beneficence and perfection of Nature too far.

What consideration is borne in mind when giving young animals protein

A.(A) The more, the better.

B.(B) The less, the worse.

C.(C) The minimum input, the maximum output.

D.(D) The maximum input, the minimum output.

有专家担心转基因作物可能对环境有危害,比如在美国栽种的那种能抗虫害的玉米和棉花的所有分子都分泌出一些微量的“杀虫药”,一种像任何一种农药一样能选择杀死某些害虫的“雾剂”,这可能加快出现一些更难对付的害虫。
这句话的意思理解准确的一项是( )。

A.新害虫的出现与能抗虫害作物分泌的“雾剂”污染环境有关
B.美国的那种转基因的玉米和棉花品种是无法对付害虫的
C.能抗虫害的玉米和棉花可能会促使更不容易杀死的害虫出现
D.那种能抗虫害的作物,在抗虫害的同时,又保护了一些害虫
