Dietary Changes and Health
　　China's food distribution has taken great changes from 1960's to 1990's According to this statistics of cereals, vegetable, meat, and fruits, the number of those who eat rice, flour or vegetable has greatly decreased in the past four decades. In contrast of this the number of those who eat oil or meat has sharply increased. From such dietary changes, we can perceive the rapid improvement of our people' s living standard.
　　Why does this improvement occur? The direct reason is the fact that the Chinese people have attached much importance to their health care. Nationally, China's economic growth is booming, and more people are getting richer. Individually, everyone's consumption of food is increasingly varied. In particular, most of people are reluctant to eat much vegetable, but much meat and oil in their diets.
　　In my view, the changes of China's dietary distribution seem to be both positive and negative. The positive aspect is that China' s economical growth has given rise to the higher level of dietary standard, with most of people living rich and happy. But the negative aspect is that, I'm afraid, less eating vegetable will lead to poorer health, such as lacking vitamin nutrients in one's body. Therefore, we think it necessary for the Chinese to be aware of the balanced diets: Lots of vegetable and meat, which may gain us healthier bodies in the new century.
饮食变化与卫生保健
　　中国的粮食分布从六十年代到九十年代发生了很大的变化。根据这个谷类，蔬菜，肉类和水果的统计数字，过去四年里，吃米饭，面粉或蔬菜的人数大大减少几十年。相比之下，吃油或肉的人数急剧增加。从这样的饮食变化中，我们可以看到人民生活水平的快速提高。
　　为什么会发生这种改善？直接原因是中国人重视自己的医疗保健。在全国范围内，中国的经济增长正在蓬勃发展，越来越多的人越来越富有。个别而言，每个人的食物消费量都日益变化。尤其是大多数人不愿吃太多的蔬菜，而是吃很多的肉和油。
　　我认为，中国饮食分布的变化似乎既有积极的一面，也有消极的一面。积极的一面是，中国的经济增长带来了更高的饮食标准，大部分人的生活富裕和幸福。但不利的一面是，恐怕少吃蔬菜会导致身体缺乏维生素营养素等健康状况下降。因此，我们认为中国人有必要了解均衡饮食：在新的世纪里，大量的蔬菜和肉类可以使我们获得健康的身体。
