Enjoying an iced coffee? Better skip dinner or hit the gym afterwards, with a cancer charity warning that some iced coffees contain as many calories as a hot dinner.
The World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) conducted a survey of iced coffees sold by some popular chains in Britain including Starbucks, Caffe Nero and Costa Coffee to gauge the calories as studies increasingly link obesity with cancer.
The worst offender — a coffee from Starbucks — had 561 calories. Other iced coffees contained more than 450 calories and the majority had in excess of 200.
Health experts advise that the average woman should consume about 2,000 calories a day and a man about 2,500 calories to maintain a healthy weight. Dieters aim for 1,000 to 1,500 calories a day.
“The fact that there is an iced coffee on the market with over a quarter of a woman’s daily calories allowance is alarming,” Dr. Rachel Thompson, science program manager at London-based WCRF, said in a widely-reported statement.
“This is the amount of calories you might expect to have in an evening meal, not in a drink.”
The WCRF has estimated that 19,000 cancers a year in Britain could be prevented if people lost their excess weight, with growing evidence that excess body fat increases the risk of various cancers.
“If you are having these types of coffee regularly, then they will increase the chances of you becoming overweight, which in turn increases your risk of developing cancer, as well as other diseases such as heart disease,” she added.
Questions 16 to 18 are based on the passage you have just heard.
16. What warning did some health experts give?
17. What does the speaker suggest people do after they have an iced coffee?
18. What could British people expect if they maintained a normal body weight according to the WCRF?
选项
A、They could enjoy a happier family life.
B、They could greatly improve their work efficiency.
C、Many embarrassing situations could be avoided.
D、Many cancer cases could be prevented.
答案
D
解析
选项中的They could,enjoy,happier,family life,improve和work efficiency表明,本题可能考查They如果做某事会有什么好处。由短文中提到的…19,000 cancers …could be prevented if people lost their excess weight(……9,000例癌症……可以得到预防,如果人们能减去多余的体重)可知,答案为D)。问题中的if they maintained a normal body weight对应短文中的if people lost their excess weight,D)Many cancer cases could be prevented是对19,000 cancers a year in Britain could be prevented的同义转述。
