雅思口语教你强调早饭的重要性

雅思口语新话题：吃早饭重要嘛？有些人，尤其是女孩子，不常吃早饭，认为这样可以减肥（lose weight），而其实有十个重要理由，建议早饭必不可少。
1. Break the fast. Ever think of what "breakfast" means? Your body responds to not eating for hours and hours by slowing down it's metabolic rate. By eating breakfast, you wake up your metaboli* and get your engine humming, burning those calories you need to burn to lose weight.
早饭有助于新陈代谢。

2. Eat more, weigh less. Researchers have repeatedly shown that people who eat breakfast have a better chance of losing weight, and keeping it off. When you skip meals, you’re so hungry by lunchtime you'd eat an entire cow! Research carried out at Queen Margaret University, Edinburgh has shown that eating breakfast cereal in the morning helps aid weight loss.
事实证明，吃早饭的人比不吃早饭的人要更轻一些，原因就在于那些不吃早饭的人往往在午餐时吃的更多。

3. Are you interested in doing better at work and school? Don’t be a bed head... breakfast helps wake you up. Studies show that people who eat breakfast are more alert and do better on tests than people who skip breakfast. Conversely, a hungry child can be apathetic, disinterested, and irritable when confronted with difficult tasks. Breakfast is the key." No doubt *s need breakfast as much as kids do.
早餐有助于你能够更清晰，充满活力，可以投入到一天的工作和学习中去。

4. Breakfast is your chance to eat the foods you may not eat the rest of the day. You can have whole-grain cereal and berries with non-fat milk - here is your fibre, folic acid and calcium in one easy-to-grab bowl. Low-carbers need to go very easy on grains, so opt for the highest-fibre brand you can find. However, why not indulge instead in the typical eggs and lean bacon breakfast most other eating plans frown upon?

5. Skipping breakfast makes you grouchy. Studies show that people who eat breakfast tend to be in better moods (when I’m hungry - watch out!). Breakfast gets you started on the right track for the day. If you start out with a healthy breakfast, then you set the mood for lunch. You're more likely to choose something reasonable for lunch if you’ve paid some attention to your breakfast choices.

6. Cancel the Danish or sugared doughnut first thing in the morning - they cause a blood sugar dip a couple of hours later. You’ll be desperate for something to perk you up, and are more likely to grab another high-sugar refined carb, for a quick sugar rush.
不吃早餐可能会造成低血糖。

7. Breakfast makes your machine run better. Get yourself on a schedule with a healthy breakfast, and you’re ready to take on the world.
早餐可以帮助你的身体机能更好的运行。

8. If you’re a parent, set a good example. By skipping breakfast, your kids will think it’s not important. Breakfast doesn't have to be a big affair, but don’t wimp out... make it a habit, and your kids will be way ahead of the game too.
家长对于早餐的态度要重视，要以身作则。

9. Don’t eat dessert for breakfast. If you think a cereal bar with 30 grams of sugar is a breakfast item, then think again. Some cereal bars contain nearly as much sugar and fat as a regular chocolate bar.
早餐不要吃甜品。

10. One more word about labels... if it says, "Nutritious," it doesn’t necessarily mean it’s healthy. Cereal manufacturers are experts in marketing, using words that send a message of health, but unless you read the labels, eat at your own risk. Kids’ cereals often have more sugar than sweets. Protect your kids from getting hooked on these cereals... they’ll get used to all the sugar, and will want only pre-sweetened cereals.
营养充足的不代表健康，早餐的选择很重要。

Whatever your diet you follow... breakfast is one meal you don’t want to miss.
