20、esearchers analysed the diet of 16,000 people in 52 countries and identified three global eating patterns. The typical Western diet, high in fat, salt and meat, accounted for about 30% of heart attack risk in any population. A “prudent” diet high in fruit and vegetables lowered heart risk by a third

21、. An Oriental diet, high in tofu, soy and other sauces, made no difference to heart attack risk. People who ate a Western diet had a 35% greater risk of having a heart attack than those who ate little or no fried. The typical Western diet has been widely linked to heart disease. High salt in the die

22、t can raise blood pressure and the wrong type of fat can clog（阻塞） blood vessels. Ellen Mason, a cardiac nurse for the British Heart Foundation, said: “This study shows that it doesnt matter whether you live in Bolton or Bombay, or whether you like to eat British, African Caribbean or Asian foods.

26、dolphin turned up, the beached whales were in clear distress. But when Moko arrived at Mahia beach on the east coast of New Zealands North Island, their mood changed and they followed him to safety.The ability of some animals to communicate is well known. Whats less well documented, however, is the

27、communication between species. Justin Gregg, vice president of the Dolphin Communication Project, said it is possible that a dolphin and a whale could communicate in some way. “But it wouldnt be instructions like Hey, buddy, the open ocean is over here. Follow me,” he says.Dolphins use three forms o

28、f signaling to other dolphins-whistles, clicking and postures. A whale might have signals in common with a dolphin, just as different species of dolphins are known to share signals which might theoretically allow a form of basic inter species communication. But just as its possible that Moko the dol

29、phin and the stranded whales shared a signal, it is also possible that the whales just saw a vaguely similar creature and followed it.There are many reasons why different species communicate, says Vincent Janik, lecturer at the Sea Mammal Research Unit at St Andrews University. “The animals exploit

30、the systems of others for their own benefits. Sometimes the benefits are the same for each, therefore they share information. Sometimes they are trying to take advantage of the other. Getting food may not be to the advantage of the one giving up the food.”(24) What happened after Moko the dolphin ap

31、peared at Mahia beach?A. The beached whales still felt distressful.B. Moko 1ed the whales back to the sea.C. The whales were still stuck on the beach.D.
