If only things were that simple. Supporters of the so-called Stone Age diet argue that farming practices introduced about 10,000 years ago are harmful to human health, and that we shouldn't eat grains or food made from milk such as butter and cheese. Instead, they say. we should only eat plenty of lean meat （瘦肉）and fish, with fruit and raw vegetables on the side.
The idea, also called the caveman, or hunter-gatherer diet, has been around for decades and was discussed at a meeting of the British Society for Allergy, Environmental and Nutriiional Medicine.
According to Lauren Cordain, a nutritionist at Colorado Slate University who presented【he idea to the meeting, those following the meat-centered menu “lose weight and get healthy by eating the fbod you were designed to eat v. He says there is increasing evidence lhai a caveman diet can prevent and treat many common western diseases. Studies of islanders in Papua New Guinea who still live a hunter-gatherer lifestyle show they rarely suffer from heart disease.
But other nutritionists argue that cutting out whole food groups such as grains is just not a good idea.
T would recommend anybody to eat lean meat and raw vegetables/' says Toni Steer oi the MRC human nutrition research unit at Cambridge. But what you're asking people to do is cut out a food group which is good for your health.
Archaeologists say it's not even clear exactly how much of the various toods people actually ate during the Stone Age.
T'm not convinced that we know what Stone Age man a（e,” agrees Andre Millard, who researches ancient health and diet at Durham University. u The evidence wc have only suggests the meat component（组成部分）of the diet. We get bones from animals they have eaten but we don't get 山e remains of any vegeubles they have eaten because they rot away.
28.To improve your health, Cordain suggests _______ ・
A. losing weight first
B. eating less meat and fish
C. going on the Stone Age diet D・ eating more fruit and vegetables

M: Good morning, everyone. Thank you for coming along. I ' mafraid there is a serious matter that
I ' mhoping we can clear up as soon as possible. Last night, someone broke into the staff room and
a number of things are now missing. I have already spoke n to the police and I trust thi ngs will go no
further. The police believe that whoever is responsible for the theft is probably a member of this college. Now, the thi ngs that are miss in g... First of all, a valuable clock which was prese nted to the college over a hun dred years ago has disappeared. The clock cannot easily be sold as it has the name of the college on the front and would immediately be recognized. A painting of the college by Arnolfini has also been stolen, and again this would be easily recognized as it shows the main college buildings. Now, whoever took these objects also broke open the cupboard in the staff room and took some antique glasses, eight altogether. These were given to the college many years ago by another director. They could easily get broken and although they were insured they could not be replaced. I ' m glad to say the bottles of drink were not removedw/Th e joought from an an tique market. Not surpris in gly, both the TV and video recorder have bee n taken. But perhaps the most worrying of all, is the fact that the end-of-term exam in ati on papers have bee n stole n from a fili ng case. If these papers cannot be marked, every one in the college will suffer. Now if you can help, or if you have see n or heard any thi ng that...。
