Now to a simple question: Should you be allowed to buy a soda that comes in a container larger than 16 1)ounces. With America’s 2)obesity 3)epidemic getting worse, the Mayor of New York City, Michael Bloomberg, is determined to do something about it, and what he wants to do is outlaw what he calls “supersize sodas and other sugary drinks,” a plan that a lot of people may disagree with.
Take a look at this. Today a small, typically a 16 ounces, and they only get bigger from there—20, 30 or 40 ounces or bigger—and Mayor Michael Bloomberg says that is a big problem.
In an effort to win or at least compete in the battle of the 4)bulge, Mayor Bloomberg is proposing a widescale ban on sugary and sweetened beverages over 16 ounces, principally sodas served at restaurants, movie theaters, food carts, even the 5)ball park.
Michael Bloomberg: Obesity is the only public health issue in this country that’s getting worse, and everybody’s 6)wringing their hands: “I gotta do something about it.” Nobody’s doing anything about it.
The Federal Government says Americans consume at least 22 teaspoons of sugar a day. That’s 75 pounds a year. Bloomberg led New York City to the first restaurant ban on artificial transfats in 2008. Now the target is sugar.
Not all sweet or high 7)calorie drinks will be downsized. Off the chart, water, of course, diet sodas,
现在来看一个简单的问题：超过16盎司（约473毫升）的碳酸饮料应该被允许售卖吗？随着肥胖问题在美国变得日益严重，纽约市长迈克尔·布隆伯格决心采取措施，他的做法就是禁止售卖他所说的“超大容积的碳酸饮料及其他含糖饮料”，但这个计划也许会招致许多人反对。
看看现实情况。现在，通常一份小号饮料是16盎司，但往上可就变得越来越大了——20、30或者40盎司，甚至更大。迈克尔·布隆伯格市长称这是一个严重的问题。
在这场志在必得，或者至少应该是旗鼓相当的与肥胖问题一较高下的斗争中，布隆伯格市长提出大范围禁止出售超过16盎司的含糖饮料，主要是指在餐厅、电影院、食物售卖车，以及棒球场售卖的含糖饮料。
迈克尔·布隆伯格：在美国，肥胖是惟一日益严重的公共健康问题，每个人都为此苦恼，表示：“我要对此采取一些措施”。实际上，没有任何人采取行动。
美国联邦政府称，美国人每天至少消费22茶匙糖，一年下来就是75磅（约34千克）。2008年，布隆伯格率先在纽约市禁止餐厅使用人工反式脂肪酸。现在，纽约将目标对准了糖。
并不是所有的含糖或高热量饮料都必须缩小容积。不在禁止名单之列的包括水（当然啦）、无糖汽水、咖啡类饮品、牛奶或
