Eating an apple a day doesn&39; t keep the doctor away, but it does reduce the amount of trips you make to the drug store per year. That &39; s according to a new study that investigates whether there&39; s any truth in the old saying.

A team of researchers led by Dr Matthew Davis, of the University of Michigan School of Nursing,asked 8,399 participants to answer survey questions about diet and health. A total of 753 were apple eaters, consuming at least 149g of raw apple per day. The remaining 7, 646 were classed as non-apple eaters. When both groups answered questions on trips to the doctor and trips to the drug store per year,the apple eaters were found to be 27% less likely to visit the druggist for drugs.

Trips to the doctor were not significantly affected by apple consumption, though. "Evidence does not support that an apple a day keeps the doctor away. However, the small number of US adults who eat an apple a day does appear to use fewer prescription medications," the study concludes.

Apple eaters were also found to be less likely to smoke and be more likely to have a higher educational attainment than non-apple eaters. While apples do not compete with oranges, they docontain some immune (免疫的) system-increasing vitamin C, which may be why apple-eaters visit the druggist less. With over 8mg of vitamin C per medium-sized fruit, an apple can provide roughly 14% your daily recommended intake.

Previous studies have also linked apple consumption to a lower risk of Type 2 diabetes (二型糖尿病) ,improved lung function and a lower risk of colon (結(jié)腸) cancer.

The survey was carried out by the British Council, the council for international education, and Universities UK, an organization supporting the work of all the country's universities.

The survey revealed only 7 percent of the students said most of their friends were from the UK; 32 percent said they had a mixture of UK and international student friends; and 59 percent said their only friends were international.

Some student leaders say one reason fox' the trend is that overseas students are dedicate to their courses instead of their social lives.

In addition, many foreign students weren't interested in the pub-centered drinking culture on British campuses, according to Will MacFarlane, student union general secretary of the London School of Economies. This prevented some students who didn't pay regular trips to pubs from making new friends.

Some students think that MacFarlane's explanation is true.

"I have only one year to adapt to the new all-English environment and dealing with a full study workload. The time is so limited that I have little time to make friends with foreign students." Said one Peking University grad student who is at Oxford University.

She also admitted that an important reason for the lack of interaction is that Chinese students are usually shy, and don't take the initiative to make new friends.

MacFarlane also came forward with some suggestions on how to improve the situation. "It may be helpful if we can provide a cultural shift in university activities away from the drinking culture, and provide more activities for more groups," he said.

The survey showed that ______.

A．the number of overseas students is reduced in recent years

B．overseas students are not willing to make friends with British students

C．no overseas students have time to go to pubs in spare time

D．most overseas students have few British friends

A.provide

B.study

C.like
