Researchers from Xi'an Jiaotong University collected data from participants aged 35 to 74 from five northwestern regions. The researchers divided the participants into three groups according to their weekly rice and wheat intake. The first group eats rice as staple food, the second group's staple food is wheat, and the third group consumes both rice and wheat as staple food, with similar frequency.

The results show that rice preference may be associated with a lower risk of certain obesity types. Higher wheat intake was associated with higher risks of excessive body fat and central obesity (stomach fat). When wheat lovers changed their staple food to rice five times per week, the participants showed a 36. 5 percent lower risk of normal-weight obesity in men, which refers to people with normal body weight but a high body fat percentage and a 20. 5 percent lower risk of normal-weight central obesity in women.

According to the researchers, previous animal studies show that rice protein shows the potential for anti-obesity and triglyceride-lowering effects. Moreover, wheat flour absorbs less water than rice when cooked, partly resulting in a higher energy density (密度) of wheat than rice. A similar result has also been shown in the sixth edition (2020) of the Chinese Food Composition Table. Meanwhile, rice-based dietary patterns often have more fresh vegetables, legumes (豆类), meat and fish. People with wheat preference in Northwest China tend to eat large bowls of noodles with fewer vegetables or less meat.

The researchers noted that given the vast territory and diverse ethnic groups present in Northwest China, further studies may be necessary to fully understand the regional specificity and potential underlying reasons for the observed links.

From the manual operation of the 1. 0 era to the widespread mechanization of the 2. 0 era, and then to the parallel standardization and digitalization of the 3. 0 era, the dining industry is stepping into a brand new stage: Smart Dining 4. 0. The constant advancements in cooking equipment and related technologies are the key drivers behind the changes in the dining industry.

AI is improving our dining experience like never before. Imagine stepping into a restaurant where the hustle and bustle of taking orders is replaced by warm lighting and soothing music. After a simple scanning, the intelligent ordering system can quickly recognize your identity, favorite dishes, dietary preferences, and even your mood, and then tailors the menus to suit individual tastes. That's the power of AI-driven personalized dining. More surprisingly, virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) are used to create an immersive dining atmosphere.

Moreover, AI is making food safety and nutrition a top priority. With the help of technologies, restaurants can now quickly evaluate the quality and safety of ingredients, ensuring that only the best ones make it to your plate. At the same time, AI is playing a crucial role in nutritious meal planning. By analyzing consumers' dietary habits and health data, AI-powered systems can create personalized meal plans that meet individual health needs.

Smart Dining 4. 0 has been enlarging its range. Nevertheless, the transformation and upgrading of the dining industry should be in line with the culture of a country: in a way innovation meets tradition. Hence, It is advisable to build a Smart Dining 4. 0 with Chinese characteristics, which can not only meet our desire for a better life, but also help us to inherit (继承) and carry forward the superb traditional Chinese food culture.

In 1884, Cleveland, defeated opponent James Blaine in a narrow victory. Four years later, He lost his 1888 reelection race focusing on economic policy issues, customs included, but lacking effective management and unity within his party to Republican challenger Benjamin Harrison despite securing the popular vote. However, in an 1892 rematch, Cleveland defeated Harrison to reclaim the office.

Cleveland's failed 1888 reelection campaign against Harrison, for the reason that the campaign was incompetently run on nearly every front, according to Troy Senik, presidential historian, former presidential speechwriter. "He began the race without a campaign manager; delegated most of the electioneering responsibilities to his running mate, Allen Thurman, who, at the age of 74, was not healthy enough to resist the rigors of campaigning; and based the entire race around his proposal to reduce customs, which divided his own Democratic Party and unified the Republicans in opposition," Senik says.

With the economy taking center stage during the campaign and a third-party bid from the newly formed Populist Party Cleveland again claimed victory in 1892, prevailing the popular vote 46 percent to 43 percent over Harrison. Cleveland sailed to a decisive Electoral College win with 277 votes, which indicated that Cleveland won largely mainly because he had been proved prescient on the customs issue.

"Woodrow Wilson once wrote of Cleveland that his courses of action were incalculable to the mere politician, simply because they were not based on calculation. Cleveland was never especially beloved, but he was respected," Senik says, "that was precisely because the public knew that he'd do what he thought was right rather than what he thought was politically expedient."

"Journey to the West", a classic Chinese novel with rich (character) and stories, has been adapted many times over the centuries. It is one of the most famous novels in Chinese literature and among the country's most successful cultural exports.

But the video game "Black Myth: Wukong", the first successful game (design) by a Chinese studio, is special. Before the game, many Chinese (complain) about their country's inability to produce a video game exciting as "Grand Theft Auto" and "World of Warcraft", which were created in Scotland and America. Now they are hoping "Black Myth" marks the ( arrive) of a new era in Chinese games.

It took Game Science, the maker of "Black Myth", six years (study) the historical material to create a game world feels true to "Journey to the West", and the determination has paid off. "Black Myth" (quick) topped global gaming platforms like Steam after it met with the game players and earned positive comments. It's believed that China has not only benefited financially, but also promoted its traditional culture a smart way. Xinhua, an official news service in China, says "Black Myth" has succeeded in telling China's story with world-class quality. A spokesperson for China's foreign ministry has announced that the game's popularity now in foreign countries (reflect) the attraction of Chinese culture.

At 3:42 a. m. everything began to shake. One of the most deadly (earthquake) of the 20th century had begun. A huge crack, eight kilometers long and 30 meters wide, cut across houses, roads and waterways. In less than one minute, a large city (lie) in ruins. Two thirds of the people (live) there were dead or injured. About 75 percent of the buildings, 90 percent of the homes and all of the hospitals were gone. Bricks covered the ground red autumn leaves. Most bridges had fallen or were not safe (cross). The railway tracks were now useless pieces of metal. (late) that afternoon, another big quake shook Tangshan again. People began to wonder how long the disaster would last.

But hope was not lost. The army sent 150,000 soldiers to Tangshan to dig out those who (trap). More than 10,000 doctors and nurses came to provide medical care. Workers built shelters for survivors home had been destroyed. Slowly, the city began to breathe again.

Four years ago, a friend first told me about the program, saying it would allow me to spend my afternoons5 horses while riding them for free. I was curious about it, so I followed him to the barn (牲口房) where horses were kept. When I saw my big horse for the first time, I was6. After months of practice, however, I gradually7 the fear. I was8 to ride a horse. It was all because of these9: feeding my "care horse", cleaning it and checking it for signs of injury. But I thought the10 was different from anything I had imagined.

Many kids11 for the program and their moms always speak highly of Hi: The program has been a great12. Hi also said, "Developing a relationship with their horses is13 to those kids." On the other hand, Hi is strict with the kids. "It's14 for kids to come here on time. You'll be kicked off the program if you stop15 classes," he stressed.

Make screen time a privilege (特权). One of the ways that screen time has changed over time is that what was once considered a privilege is now considered more of a right. So, parents need to make it clear that screen time is a privilege that costs effort. This may be difficult at first, but the lessons from learning to put off the satisfaction of screen time and control their desires will likely stay with your child for a long time.

Schedule a family meeting to discuss the rules of screen time use and allow your teen to express his or her ideas. Most teens aren't mature enough to deal with what they get from their electronics, so set up rules that will keep your teen safe and help them make good choices with video games, cell phones, TVs, and computers. Two helpful rules that you might consider are having a set time when screens need to be turned off at night and taking bedrooms as no-screen-zones.

Form healthy habits together. It can be helpful to have screen time limits that everyone in your family is expected to follow. Telling your teen to turn off their electronics while you're sitting in front of the TV is likely to be less effective than letting them know that it's time for everyone to shut down their screens. Be a good role model by limiting your own screen time.

Encourage physical activity. Encourage your teen to get regular exercise. Going for a walk, playing a game of catch, or doing some yard work can support your teen in getting the physical activity they need. Take a moment and think of some of the activities you enjoyed growing up and don't let your child miss out on those opportunities.

A. Set up clear rules.

B. Encourage screen-free mealtimes.

C. Teens will learn more from what you do than what you say.

D. Here are some practical strategies you can use to limit your teen's screen time.

E. It's a great way to ensure that everyone can still enjoy plenty of activities without electronics.

F. Finding activities that you're able to enjoy as a family can also help your teen to experience activities as more social and fun.

G. Also, be sure that your teen is aware of what behavior can result in their privilege of screen time being taken away.

For example, several years ago, Bethlehem tried spacing out its stops, says Mannella. The parents were unhappy, expressed as much and, within three days, the routes were back to normal. "You can say' we are going to save $100,000 by not stopping at every house,' but parents don' t want their kids walking," Mannella says. As you'd expect, this is especially true in bad weather.

As a student in the 1980s, we walked to our stops. The neighborhood wait-spot was a good quarter mile away. Parents didn't make a fuss (大惊小怪), and no child was injured. In fact, the walking was good — it woke us up each morning. Not to mention, the sense of community that came with hanging out together each morning waiting for bus No. 23 to roll up and take us all to school.

Thing is, a lot has changed since the 1980s. Too many people are texting and driving, making them as dangerous on the roads as drunken drivers. And, with reduced work forces at many companies, parents often work longer hours, meaning they aren't around to guard their kids to and from stops like many parents did when we were growing up.

So I'll give them an understanding pass on not wanting their children to walk a mile each way to get to and from school. I can't agree with the complaints of having kids walk to a community neighborhood stop, though. If you worry they're going to be cold, get them a hat. If you fear they may miss the bus, send them bout the door five minutes earlier.
