盤古開天

很久很久以前，天空和地球之間一片混沌。在這混沌中，有一位名叫盤古的巨人。他身穿一件黑色的長袍，手拿著一把巨大的斧頭。盤古的眼神充滿了智慧和力量。

盤古看到混沌的局面，決定要開天闢地。他揮起斧頭，用力砍向混沌。斧頭劈砍下去，發出震耳欲聾的聲音。經過九天九夜的努力，終於，混沌被盤古劈開了。

當混沌分開時，輕而上浮的是一片無邊無際的天空，重而下沈的則是一片廣闊的大地。天空中，盤古留下了一個個閃亮的星星，它們成為了後來的太陽、月亮和星辰。

盤古站在地上，感受到了無盡的力量。他開始成為了世界的中心，把自己的生命和靈魂融入了大地之中。他的眼淚變成了大海，他的汗水變成了江河湖泊。

隨著時間的流逝，盤古的身體逐漸化為了山川和土地。他的頭髮和鬍鬚變成了森林和草原。他的骨骼化作了高山和峽谷。

盤古開天闢地的故事告訴我們，一切都有一個開始。在混沌中，我們可以發現無限的可能性。只要我們有創造力、勇氣和智慧，就能開創出美麗的世界。

Being a picky eater can mean a number of different things. It may describe someone who doesn't like to try new foods, or someone who prefers plain meals. It can also refer to someone who eats quite a narrow range of foods.

It's quite common for children to be picky eaters. They may only like their pasta without sauce, or their bread cut in a certain shape.

Parents often feel they're to blame when their children are picky eaters. But according to a new study, picky eating is mostly caused by our genes.

Researchers in the UK looked at data from identical and non-identical twins who had been followed from birth since 2007.

Identical twins share 100% of their genes, while non-identical twins share half, on average. Studying these twins allowed the researchers to compare the eating habits of people who were genetically the same and those who weren't, but still grew up in the same home together.

More than 4,800 twins were included in the study. Their parents completed questionnaires about how picky their children were aged 16 months, then again at the ages of 3, 5, 7 and 13.

Not all parents completed the questionnaires as their children got older, but from the results, the researchers found that the eating habits of identical twins were much more similar than those of non-identical twins.

They also found that genetic variation explained 60% of the differences in food pickiness at 16 months, and 74% between the ages of 3 and 13. Meanwhile, shared environment only explained 15% to 26% of these differences, and the environmental effect was strongest when children were younger.

However, the researchers added that environmental effects are still important: parents can still influence their children's eating habits by eating together as a family, and by offering a wide variety of different foods, for example.
