  总体分析

  本文主要介绍了英国饮食存在的问题。第一至二段指出,英国政府和食品工业被指责导致肥胖患者的增多。第三段指出,一方面日本饮食因日益西化,肥胖问题变得严重;另一方面,日本饮食在英国很流行,被视为健康饮食。第四段指出适度饮酒对身体有益,但英国要应付的是与过度引酒相关的问题。

  全文翻译

  一份最近的议会报告指责政府和食品工业导致肥胖患者增多。交通部门被指责在促进步行和骑车设施的发展方面做得不够,而且屈从于代表汽车使用者的机动车组织的压力。教育部被指责出卖学校的操场,在保证提供用于体育教学和游戏的充足设施方面做得不够。英国的年轻人为足球和橄榄球而疯狂,但更多的只是坐在家里看电视的“沙发土豆”。

  食品工业被指控向学生兜售垃圾食品,在减少熟食中糖、脂肪和盐含量方面做得不够。受到目前艾特金斯低碳水化合物饮食潮流的刺激,食品工业已经有所反应,但是它要努力保护一个庞大的市场,而且如果要避开日益增多的规定,它需要做的事情还很多。

  迄今为止,日本看上去受肥胖问题的影响较小,但是随着日本人食谱的日益西化(夹饼和油炸圈饼),问题会变得严重。有趣的是,日式烹饪在英国很流行。它被看作是有别于地中海饮食的另一种健康饮食,后者着重于西红柿和橄榄油以及与之相结合的红酒。

  稍饮红酒现在被认为有利于心脏,更不用说红酒其它令人振奋的品性。但是英国人还需要做许多事情来解决与狂饮文化有关的酗酒问题——包括暴力和破坏行为。有节制的酒类消费,只要不和驾驶行为搭伴,就是无害的并可能是有益的。
