Amazing Rice
Rice comes in an astonishing array of sizes, shapes, and colors. Several distinct varieties of rice are commercially available, including long-grained Thai rice, medium-grain brown rice, short-grained arborio rice, Indian sticky rice, and sweet-smelling jasmine rice, to name just a few. Each kind of rice is especially suited for a particular style of cooking, or a particular type of dish.
Regardless of the variety, all rice starts off as brown rice. The outer layer of the rice grain is called the bran, and this is what gives rice its distinctive brown color. When rice is milled, this outer bran layer is removed, leaving behind a white core that is essentially made up of simple carbohydrates. White rice, whatever its type, is simply rice that has had its bran removed.
The problem with white rice is that this stripped-off bran layer, the part that is removed during the milling process, is rich with nutrients, such as fiber, B vitamins, and minerals. This is why brown rice is nutritionally superior to white rice. For example, every cup of brown rice contains three and a half grams of fiber, while the same amount of white rice contains less than one gram. Increased fiber intake has been shown to reduce the risk of cancer and heart disease.
What is claimed about rice?
选项
A、Most of the nutrients are in its outer layer.
B、It is the most commonly eaten grain in the world.
C、Every rice variety is sold as both white and brown rice.
D、Brown rice is not generally eaten in many parts of the world.
答案
A
解析
说明文第三段的第一句话The problem with white rice is that this stripped-off bran layer…is rich with nutrients,such as fiber,Bvitamins,and minerals.说明在舂米过程中剥落的麸皮含有很多营养成分。因此(A)是正确答案。
