Fresh fruit juice has becme increasingly ppular in many diets - especially amng thse cnsumers wh are pressed fr time and cncerned abut their health.Fruit juice has als been linked t beliefs that it can help peple lse weight.But is juicing really as healthy as we think?
A recent study reveals hard truths abut fruit juice
All fruits cntain sugars and dn’t seem t have harmful effects unless they cntribute t excess(过量的)daily calries.This is because the fiber which is fund in whle fruit is undamaged，and the sugar is cntained within the fruit’s cells.It takes ur digestive system a while t break these cells dwn and fr sugar t enter the bldstream.
This is nt the case with fruit juiceDifferent frm whle fruit，the natural sugar in fruit juice cunts as “free sugars”，just like hney and added sugars.With the fiber remved，fruit juice’s sugar is absrbed mre quickly.A sudden rise f bld sugar causes the pancreas(胰腺)t release insulin(胰岛素)t bring it back dwn t a nrmal level.Over time，this system can wear ut，increasing the risk f develping type-2 diabetes(糖尿病).
In 2013，after analysing the health data f 100，000 peple cllected bet ween 1986 and 2009，researchers fund that fruit juice cnsumptin was linked with increased risk f type-2 diabetes．They’ve cncluded that even when fruit juice is similar in the nutritinal cntent t whle fruit，fruit juice leads t faster and larger changes in insulin levels since liquids pass thrugh the stmach faster than slids.
“Althugh fruit juice is better than n fruit at all，there are lts f limits，” said Dr.Amy Smith，prfessr f medicine at the University f Virginia.“It particularly cmes with risks when we cnsume mre than I50ml f free sugars per day，r when it puts us ver ur recmmended calrie intake.It prvides us with vitamins - but fruit juice is far frm a quick fix.”
8. What leads t the increasing fruit juice ppularity?
A. Experts’ recmmendatin．B. Its bvius medical effects．
C. Its assumed benefits t health．D. Peple’s imprved life quality．
9. Why is whle fruit healthier?
A. It prvides better nutritin．B. Its fiber slws sugar absrptin．
C. It prtects ur digestive system．D. Its fiber helps remve extra sugar．
10. Hw did researchers draw the cnclusin in 2013?
A. By bserving the bld sugar level．
B. By cmparing liquid and slid intake．
C. By analysing previusly cllected data．
D. By interviewing type-2 diabetes patients.
11. What is Dr. Smith’s attitude t fruit juice?
A. Psitive．B. Negative．C. Objective．D. Unclear．

The success f Blue Origin’s space turism flights has caused cncerns amng the public. Many say it is a rich persn’s game that is unnecessary when Earth badly needs help.
Fr Jane Smith c-funder f Space View, the industry is nt preventing Earth frm help, but helping its residents better understand their wrld.
“Space explratin has played an imprtant rle in frming ur understanding f ur planet,” Smith said in an interview. “The mst dwnladed image in histry is Earthrise that was taken in 1968 by Apll astrnauts as they circled the mn. Taking the pht was nt n their schedule f activities but they were s struck by the scene that they rushed t recrd it.

Smith explained that eventually, millins f peple will have exciting space experience. Tickets fr a ride thrugh Space View currently run $125,000 a seat, but Smith said the “lng-term visin is t bring the price dwn significantly”. “A ticket price f, say, $30,000-$840,000 wuld make the space trip affrdable t many millins f peple,” she added.
When asked abut the public cmments, Smith answered, “When peple visit space and experience ur Earth frm that fantastic pint, they cnnect deeply with ur planet and the singular human family that inhabits it. It bradens their perspective (视角) and they return with a deepened understanding f scial and envirnmental causes.”

B. It aims t make space turism ppular.
C. It plays a part in Blue Origin’s flights.
D. It has sent six passengers int space.
