This incident occurred when a vessel carrying aca 3of sugar was shipwrecked in 1793. The five 4(survive)sailors were finally rescued nine
27、 days after the accident. They were in a wasted condition due to starvation, having consumed nothing but 5. French physiologist F. Magendie was inspired by that incident toco 6a series of experiments withan 7. In the experiments, he fed dogs a diet of sugar and water. All the dogs wasted and died. T
28、he shipwrecked sailors and the French physiologists experimental dogs proved the same point. As a steady diet, sugar is worse than nothing. Plain water can keep youa 8for quite some time. Sugar and water can kill you. Humans and animals are “unable to subsist 9a diet of sugar“. The dead dogs in Prof

What do we know about
31、 honey? Its sweet and sticky, it tastes great on bread and in hot drinks, and its a pleasant alternative to sugar. However, theres a lot more to honey than meets the eye, and one day it may replace many of the items in our medicine cabinets. Doctors throughout history have appreciated the medicinal
32、properties of honey. In Ancient Egypt it was used to treat cuts and burns. The Ancient Romans used it to help people with sleeping disorders and the Ancient Greek used it to cure skin diseases, ulcers and sores. More recently, German doctors mixed it with cod liver oil to treat battle wounds during
33、WWI, and opera singers have been known to use it to boost their energy and soothe their throats. Today, as homeopathic medicine is becoming more popular, honey has been rediscovered as a natural remedy and is being used successfully to treat many ailments such as anaemia, arthritis, colds and stomac
34、h ulcers. It is particularly effective in the treatment of burns and wounds. Honey aerosol sprays have even been used to treat chronic bronchitis. The beauty industry has also recognized the natural benefits of honey and there are many cosmetic companies which use honey-based products. These include
35、 creams, lotions, soaps and face masks which claim to help heal blemishes, reduce the appearance of scars, moisturise the skin, soften wrinkles and make skin look younger and healthier. There are also a number of honey-based hair care products which claim to strengthen hair and make it softer, shini
36、er and healthier. Honey and products containing honey have always been popular items in health food shops. Honey is sold in various forms as a remedy for sore throats, stomach ulcers and as a gentle, natural laxative. What is it then that makes honey such an effective natural remedy? Well, after man
37、y years of research, biochemists still cant say for certain. They have, however, managed to identify some of the healing properties in honey. Firstly, honey contains low levels of hydrogen peroxide, a chemical which kills bacteria. Secondly, it creates a moist environment when spread onto a wound wh
38、ich speeds up the natural healing process. Scientists have also found that certain types of honey act as antibiotics. In fact, honey is actually more effective than some of our current antibiotics because it works on certain microbes and bacteria that have developed a resistance to current antibioti
39、c treatment. However, researchers have also found some types of honey are more beneficial than others. For example, honey containing nectar from the Australian jelly bush and the New Zealand tea tree plant have been found to possess more medicinal properties than other varieties. Medical researchers
40、 are still working on identifying the role that honey could play in future medical practices, but they all agree that we should not be using the honey in our kitchen cupboards to treat ourselves. This is because many commercial brands of honey actually contain bacteria which could contaminate an ope
41、n wound. They also agree, unfortunately, that simply eating honey has minimal health benefits.

42、n, American and British pioneers have all been credited with the invention of cinema, the British and the Germans played a relatively small role in its worldwide exploitation. It was above all the French, followed closely by the Americans, who were the most passionate exporters of the new invention,
43、 helping to start cinema in China, Japan, Latin America and Russia. In terms of artistic development it was again the French and the Americans who took the lead, though in the years before the First World War, Italy, Denmark and Russia also played a part. 1By protecting their own market and pursuing
44、 a vigorous export policy, the Americans achieved a dominant position on the world market by the start of the First World War. The centre of film-making had moved westwards, to Hollywood, and it was films from these new Hollywood studios that flooded onto the worlds film markets in the years after the First World War, and have done so ever since. Faced with total Hollywood domination, few film industries proved competitive. The Italian industry, which had pioneered the feature film with spectacular films like Quo Vadis?(1913)and Cabiria(1914), almost collapsed. In Scandinavia, the Swedis
