The study showed that compared with people who gobbled their food, those who ate at a normal speed were 29 percent less likely to be obese(肥胖的). But those who ate slowly were up to 42 percent less likely to obese. In addition, people who ate slowly tended (往往會) to be healthier and have a healthier lifestyle than those who ate quickly or at a normal speed. “However, this study could not prove that speed eating causes or stops obesity,” the researcher noted.

“Slow eating has its advantages and a few disadvantages ,” said Samantha Heller from New York City. “On the one hand, slow eating gives our body time to register a sense of satisfaction and fullness, so we eat less. We are more likely to enjoy a taste of food. On the other hand, the longer people sit in front of food, the more food they will eat, ”she said.

“Speed eating appears to be far more harmful. People who eat quickly, as many of us do, gobble far more food than they need. In many European countries, slow eating is a way of life,” Heller said. In America, speed eating takes the lead. Thus we need to encourage people to have a change, learn the way of slower eating from Europeans and get a true enjoyment of food.

Guo Dexian, 95, unfurled（展開）a red flag with a big star in the middle and four stars at the corners. “We used our quilts to make the flag just before liberation（解放）. At that time we didn’t know what our national flag would be like,” said Guo with excitement. In the classic novel Red Crag（《紅巖》），we can read the story of the flag’s making. This is the first story about our national flag.
