A large﹣scale study has found a link between eating a diet based on organic food and having a reduced risk of cancer． If the new results are confirmed， promoting organic food consumption could be a promising preventative strategy against the disease， a team of researchers from several French institutions said．
Among the environmental risks for cancer， there are growing concerns about exposure to different types of pesticides（杀虫剂） from farming． The impact of such chemicals on the human body is still not well understood but there are some indications that harmful effects can occur even at low concentrations．
Meanwhile， pushed by environmental and health concerns， the organic food market continues to grow rap﹣idly． Organic food is produced without the use of synthetic（合成的） fertilizers， pesticides， genetically modified organisms， and the use of veterinary（兽医的） medications．
"Organic foods are less likely to contain pesticide remains than conventional foods， and studies have shown that an organic diet reduces exposure to certain pesticide，" Julia Baudry， lead author of the study from the Centre of Research in Epidemiology and Statistics in France， told Newsweek．
"In the general population， the primary route of exposure is diet， especially intake of conventionally grown fruits and vegetables． However， few studies have examined the association of organic food consumption with cancer risk． "
For the study， published in the journal JAMA Internal Medicine， a team of researchers examined data on the organic food consumption frequency and dietary intake of 68，946 French adults collected by an ongoing survey which began in 2009． They then followed up on these people at various points in the future．
Participants reported how often （never， occasionally or most of the time） they consumed 16 types of organic foods including fruits， vegetables， soy﹣based products， dairy products， meat and fish， eggs， grains and legumes， bread and cereals， flour， vegetable oils and condiments， ready﹣to﹣eat meals， coffee， tea， and herbal tea， wine， biscuits， chocolate， sugar and so on．

On a recent night， while I was busy thinking about important social issues， like what to do over the week﹣end and who to do it with， I overheard my parents talking about my future． My dad was upset ﹣ not the usual stuff that he and Mom and， I guess， a lot of parents worry about like which college I' m going to， how far away it is from home． Instead， he was upset about the world his generation is turning over to mine， a world he fears has a dark and difficult future﹣﹣if it has a future at all．
"There will be a disease that kills millions， a disastrous energy crisis， a horrible worldwide depression and a nuclear explosion set off in anger．"
As I lay on the living room couch， listening to their conversation， starting to worry about the future my father was describing， I found myself looking at some old family photos． There was a picture of my grandfather who was a member of the class of 1942， the war class． Next to his picture were photos of my great﹣grandparents． Seeing those pictures made me feel a lot better． I believe tomorrow will be better than today ﹣﹣that the world my generation grows into is going Lo get better， not worse． Those pictures helped me understand why．
I considered some of the awful things my grandparents and great﹣grandparents had seen in their lifetimes： two world wars， killer flu， segregation（隔离） ， a nuclear bomb． But they saw other things， too， better things： the end of two world wars， passage of the civil rights laws．
I believe that my generation will see better things， too﹣﹣that we will witness the time when AIDS is cured and cancer is defeated． I will see things as incredible to me today as the internet to my father when he was 16．

Food feeds the soul. To the extent that we all eat food, and we all have souls, food is the single great united across cultures. With food, there are more opportunities to connect to memory and family and place. 1.
Food as identity. French, Mexican, Chinese, and Italian cuisines each involve dozens of distinct regional foods. Every single culture and religion uses food as part of their celebrations.
2. Every season, every harvest, and every holiday has its own food, and this is true in America as well.
3. Sometimes food means living on. While the Chinese cooks who exported “Chinese” food around the world ate authentic cooking at home, the dishes they served, thus creating new cuisines entirely, were based on economic necessity.
Food as pleasure. Things have changed dramatically in the past 20 years when it comes to food in France. Some of the ideas of French food life may be a performance. France is this pastoral nation where people are spending five hours a day going to 12 different markets to get their food. 4.
Food as status. The introduction of global foods and brands has compounded food as a status symbol for some Chinese. 5. In China, people eat food not necessarily for taste, but for texture. You can find food from all of the provinces of China in Shanghai, as well as every kind of global food style imaginable.
A. Food as survival.
B.Food as community.
C.It’s the hardest to give up.
D. The celebratory nature of food is universal.
E.It is an accumulation, a function of your experiences
F.How and why you eat your food, is, of course, also very cultural.
G. But food in Italy is love, then nutrition, then history, then pleasure.
