There
are four million people with diabetes
(
糖尿病
) in the
UK
—
that’ s one in every 16
people. There are two main
types of
diabetes: Type 1 and Type 2. Type 1 is less common
and is not preventable. In the UK, 90% of diabetes
are Type 2.
It has something to do with
weight gain and a sedentary
(
久坐的
) lifestyle, but there
are other risk reasons. The good news
is that around 80% of cases of Type 2
diabetes are preventable.
Are you at risk?
Type 2 diabetes can come on slowly. It
may not be easy to find the signs. So it is
important to understand the risk
reasons. People with Type 2 diabetes
can feel thirsty, tired and need to go to the
toilet more often.
Tips on preventing
Type 2
If you have Type 2 diabetes, it
is very important to control your weight. If you
are overweight, Type 2 diabetes can be
avoided by reducing your weight.
Exercise is necessary for good health.
It not only helps to keep a healthy weight, but
can
lower blood-sugar levels
because it helps your body to use
insulin (
胰岛素
) more
effectively. To have high levels of everyday
activities, including
walking,
housework, playing with children and
hobbies
—
anything that gets
you moving.
Also,
a
healthy
diet
will
help
you
manage
your
weight.
Vegetables
and
fruits
are
low
in
calories
and
are
rich
in
vitamins, minerals
(
矿物质
) and fiber
(
纤维
). This is important for
good digestion (
消化
) and
slows down the sugars into
the blood.
However, some types of fruits are high in sugar,
so getting most of your five-a-day from vegetables
is better.
Whole grains are
good for Type 2 diabetes because the husk
(
外壳
) of the seed is kept.
This is often the best part of
the
grain, with fiber and protein
(
蛋白
). Protein is good for
Type 2 diabetes. Fish, meats, eggs, nuts and many
beans are
rich in protein.
Foods high in both fat and sugar are
very bad for your health and should be avoided.
Water is the best because there
aren’t
any calories in it while many other drinks, such
as soft drinks, en
ergy drinks and milky
coffees are really bad.

The ostrich is the largest bird in the
world. The ostrich is found in nature in Africa,
but it is raised all over the world
for
its meat.
The ostrich is a
unique
（独特的）
looking animal.
It has long skinny legs, a big body with small
wings, a long neck,
and a dangerous
long beak
（喙）
. Even though it
has wings, it can’t fly. But they aren’t
completely useless either. They help
a
lot with balance when the ostrich is running at
full speed and needs to change directions. The
ostrich usually weighs
between 200 and
300 pounds and can grow to 9 feet tall. Its large
body is covered with feathers.
The
ostrich is famous for its speed on the ground. Its
powerful legs allow it to reach speeds of 40 miles
per hour!
Ostriches
can
also
use
their
strong
legs
to
kick
any
enemy
or
even
kill
a
human
or
a
lion. However,
in
most
cases
the
ostrich just uses its
speed to run away from any danger.
Ostriches eat whatever they can find.
This includes plants, insects, and small animals
like lizards. They often live in
groups. A group will have around ten
birds, but some groups even have 100 birds. This
way the whole group can help to
protect
the eggs. Ostrich eggs are the biggest eggs of any
animal at an average of 3 pounds.
Ostriches don’t actually put their head
in the ground as many cartoons like to show. What
they really do is to lie down
and put
their head and neck flat on the ground to hide.
From a distance all you can see is their body, so
it appears as if they
have put their
head in a hole in the ground. Ostriches can not
only kick with powerful feet, they are also armed
with 4 inch
long
claws
（爪）
on their feet.
