There are timeswhen most of us would rather eat sweets and ice-cream than meat and rice. Sweets and ice-creamare not bad if we eat them at the end of a meal. If we eat them before a meal, they may takeaway our appetite (食欲). It is important for us to eat our meals at the same time each day.When we feel hungry, it is a sign that our body needs food. When we feel angry or excited,we may not want to eat. A long time ago, in England, some judges used to decide whether a manwas telling the truth by giving him some dry bread. If the man could not eat the bread, it showed that he was telling lies. Although this seems very strange and rather foolish, it is indeed a very good way of finding out the fact. A man who is worrying about something has difficulty in eating anything dry. Because he is worrying, he loses his appetite and does notwant to eat.( )46.
