問題詳情
四、閱讀測驗(請選出最適當的選項)Passage 1In a new observational study involving close to 20,000 individuals, people who consumed atleast four cups of coffee daily had a 64% lower risk of early death compared to those never or rarelyconsumed coffee. The reduction in risk was more significant once people reached the age of 45,suggesting that it may be even more beneficial to consume coffee as we get older.These findings echo the recent results of another large observational study, which found thatcoffee drinkers appear to live longer, regardless of whether they consume regular or decaf coffee.Coffee has also been shown to reduce the risk of many diseases, including type 2 diabetes, liverdisease, colorectal cancer, Alzheimer’s and skin cancer, too.“Coffee is loaded with antioxidants,” said Joe DeRupo, a spokesman for the National CoffeeAssociation. “Many are naturally occurring antioxidants found in the coffee bean, while others arecreated during the roasting process. It’s these compounds that science links with positive effects inreducing the risk of several diseases.” Some of the compounds commonly found in coffee “have beenrelated to better insulin sensitivity, liver function and reduced chronic inflammation,” said V. WendySetiawan, an associate professor of preventive medicine of USC.While coffee consumption may appear to be healthful for many, others should proceed withcaution. Pregnant women, for example, should cautiously limit their intake of caffeinated coffee. If you have any heart conditions, you should also limit your coffee and caffeine consumption. “Caffeineis an aggravator and accelerator of one’s heart rate,” said Dr. Vince Bufalino.
