Making fruit look good holds the key to getting children to eat more of it, a study suggests. In tests, when offered the same amount and types of fruit, children ate far more if it was made fun and attractive, the journal Appetite reports. The researchers, who studied nearly 100 pupils in the Netherlands and Belgium, say parents and schools should follow this example. However, they said food presentations needed to remain innovative. In the study of children aged four to seven, apples, strawberries and seedless grapes were put on offer, but presented in different ways.
Given the choice, the children plumped for these fruits more readily when they were made into a hedgehog — skewered with colorful cocktail sticks that were pierced into a watermelon. The same cubed fruits did little for the children’s palates when they were simply offered on a white dish. Children ate nearly twice as much of the "fun" fruit, even though they said they understood that both fruit options — hedgehog and plain dish — should taste the same.
The researchers suggest supermarkets could also capitalize on the findings to make fruit more appealing for children and their parents alike. But[27]they also warn that "fun" fruit presentations might soon lose their appeal with children if they were used too many times. It is probably necessary for parents and food producers to remain innovative.[28]And for parents who do not have the time to make elaborate fruit faces and flowers from carrots and radishes, there are simpler ways to make foods interesting, such as cutting it into triangles, squares or strips.
26. What does the study suggest?
27. What do the researchers suggest parents do?
28. What is a simple way for parents to make fruit look good according to the passage?
选项
A、Fruit of bright colors attracts children’s eyeballs.
B、Children eat more fruit if it is made fun and attractive.
C、Most children like the fruit that tastes sweet.
D、Children take in more fruit if it is made into juice.
答案
B
解析
细节题。短文开头就说,一项研究表明,使水果看起来漂亮(look good)可以让孩子们多吃一些,在实验中,当给孩子们相同数量和种类的几盘水果时,如果水果的造型有趣并且吸引人(fun and attractive),他们会多吃很多,故答案为[B]。
