Dick replied quickly．At 11:45 Dick left for a 12:00 meeting across town．Arriving late, he explained that traffic had been bad．That evening, Dick’s girlfriend wore a new dress．He hated it． “It looks just great on you.’’ he said. Three lies in one day! Yet Dick Spivak is just an ordinary man, each time, he told himself that sometimes that truths caused too many problems．Most of us tell much the same white lies, harmless untruths that help to save trouble．How often do we tell white lies? It depends in part on our age, education, and even where we live．According to one US study, women are more truthful than men, and honesty increases as we get older．. While most people use little white lies to make life easier, the majority of Americans care about honesty in both public and personal life．They say that people today are less honest than they were ten years ago．Although it is believed that things are getting worse, lying seems to be an age-old human problem．The French philosopher Vauvenarges, writing in the eighteenth century, touched on the truth when he wrote, “All men are born truthful and die liars. 【查看更多】

    The food we eat seems to have great effects on our health. Although science has made great steps in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat. Some research has shown that perhaps eighty percent of all human illnesses are related to diet and forty percent of cancer is related to diet as well. Different cultures are subject to certain illnesses because of the food that is characteristic in these cultures. That food is related to illness is not a new discovery.
    In 1945, government researchers realized that nitrates(硝酸盐) and nitrites(亚硝酸盐), commonly used to keep color in meats, and other food additives, caused cancer. Yet, these additives remain in our food, and it becomes more difficult all the time to know which things on the packaging labels(标签) of processed food are helpful or harmful. The additives which we eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give penicillin to cows and chick and because of this, penicillin has been found in the milk of treated cows.
    Sometimes similar drugs are given to animals not for medicinal purposes, but for financial reasons. The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to get a higher price on the market. Although the FDA has tried repeatedly to control these, the practices continue.
