Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

   The food we eat seems to have profound effects on our health. Although science has made enormous steps in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat. Some research has shown that perhaps eighty percent of all human illnesses are related to diet and forty percent of cancer is related to the diet as well, especially cancer of the colon. People of different cultures are more prone to contact certain illnesses because of the characteristic foods they consume.

   That food is related to illness is not a new discovery. In 1945, government researchers realized that nitrates nitrites (commonly used to preserve color in meat) as well as other food additives caused cancer. Yet, these carcinogenic additives remain in our food, and it becomes more difficult all the time to know which ingredients on the packaging label of processed food are helpful or harmful.

   The additives that we eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give penicillin to cattle and poultry, and because of this, penicillin has been found in the milk of treated cows.

   Sometimes similar drugs are administered to animals not for medical purposes, but for financial reasons. The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to obtain a higher price on the market. Although the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has tried repeatedly to control these procedures, the practices continue.

   A healthy diet is directly related to good health. Often we are unaware of detrimental substances we ingest. Sometimes well-meaning farmers or others who do not realize the consequences add these substances to food without our knowledge.

Dịch nghĩa:

“Thực phẩm chúng ta ăn dường như có ảnh hưởng sâu sắc đến sức khỏe của chúng ta. Mặc dù khoa học đã có những bước tiến lớn trong việc làm cho thực phẩm trở nên phù hợp hơn để ăn, nó cũng đã khiến nhiều loại thực phẩm trở nên không phù hợp để ăn. Một số nghiên cứu đã chỉ ra rằng có lẽ 80% tất cả các bệnh tật của con người liên quan đến chế độ ăn uống và 40% ung thư cũng liên quan đến chế độ ăn uống, đặc biệt là ung thư đại tràng. Người dân các nền văn hóa khác nhau có nhiều khả năng mắc các bệnh nhất định do các loại thực phẩm đặc trưng mà họ tiêu thụ.

Việc thực phẩm liên quan đến bệnh tật không phải là một phát hiện mới. Năm 1945, các nhà nghiên cứu của chính phủ nhận ra rằng nitrat nitrit (thường được sử dụng để bảo quản màu sắc trong thịt) cũng như các chất phụ gia thực phẩm khác gây ung thư. Tuy nhiên, những chất phụ gia gây ung thư này vẫn còn trong thực phẩm của chúng ta, và ngày càng khó biết được các thành phần trên nhãn bao bì của thực phẩm chế biến là có lợi hay có hại.

Các chất phụ gia mà chúng ta ăn không phải tất cả đều trực tiếp. Nông dân thường cho gia súc và gia cầm dùng penicillin, và vì điều này, penicillin đã được tìm thấy trong sữa của những con bò được điều trị.

Đôi khi các loại thuốc tương tự được tiêm cho động vật không phải vì mục đích y tế, mà vì lý do tài chính. Nông dân đơn giản chỉ cố gắng vỗ béo động vật để có được giá cao hơn trên thị trường. Mặc dù Cục Quản lý Thực phẩm và Dược phẩm (FDA) đã cố gắng kiểm soát những quy trình này nhiều lần, nhưng những thực hành này vẫn tiếp tục.

Chế độ ăn uống lành mạnh liên quan trực tiếp đến sức khỏe tốt. Thường thì chúng ta không nhận thức được các chất có hại mà chúng ta tiêu thụ. Đôi khi, những người nông dân hoặc những người khác có ý tốt, không nhận thức được hậu quả, thêm những chất này vào thực phẩm mà không có sự biết của chúng ta.

Câu hỏi: Tiêu đề nào là tốt nhất cho đoạn văn này?

A. Thực phẩm bạn ăn có thể ảnh hưởng đến sức khỏe của bạn

B. Các chất có hại và vô hại trong thực phẩm

C. Tránh các chất có hại trong thực phẩm

D. Cải thiện sức khỏe thông qua chế độ ăn uống tự nhiên.
