For many of us food is a need. For others, food is a friend. And to some others, food is an enemy /ˈenəmi/ . 简单朴实的食物最好的，但是这个理论偶尔也不对。对于很多人来说，食物是基本需求。但是对于有些人来说，食物是朋友。对其他人来讲，食物是敌人。 Let’s say you’re feeling down. You had a tough day or a fight with a best friend. You decide to treat yourself to a bar of chocolate –nothing like chocolate could cheer you up. 假如你心情不好。一整天过得不开心或者跟朋友吵了一架。你决定奖励自己一块巧克力--没有什么食物更能比巧克力更能使人开心了。 But you’re getting a lot of calories /ˈkæləri/. That’s because chocolate /ˈtʃɑ:klət/ bars have much fat and sugar. They are going to take a long time to get out of your body. And caffeine /ˈkæfi:n/ in the chocolate will make you feel happy and relaxed for a while but it will make you feel bad when you’re getting fat. 但是不幸的是，你将会吸收很多卡路里。那是因为巧克力含有大量的脂肪和糖类。他们会在人体内部停留很长时间。巧克力中的咖啡因会在短时间内使得你感到幸福和放松，但是最后当你开始变胖的时候，你就会感觉比较槽糕。 Part 3 takeaway 词汇小技巧 常见词性的缩略 n.
