• What has caused the great changes in people’s diet? The main reason, I think, lies in the improvement in people’s income level. With the development of our society, people are becoming richer and richer, which enables them to purchase more nutritious food such as meat and milk. In the meantime, grain consumption in people’s diet consequently dropped.
• The second greatest change is in milk consumption, which increased 3% from 10% in 1986 to 13% in 1990, but on the other hand, two trends can be observed in the consumption of meat and fruit and vegetables. From 1986 to 1989, meat consumption increased from 17% to 23%, while that of fruit and vegetables dropped from 24% to 20%. From 1989 to 1990, meat consumption dropped a little to 21%, while that of fruit and vegetables increased a little to 21%.
• 通过横向、纵向对比分析，不难发现 grain的消费量逐年下降，5年间减少了 4%，而milk的消费却逐年增加，meat的 消费也逐年增加。纵向看，milk 和meat
变化趋势相同，占总消费量的比例在增
大，而grain 的比例变化正相反，从而归 纳出一个总的变化规律：grain 的消费量 在减少，而milk 和meat的消费量在增加。
