BBC环球慢速英语 第431期:儿童糖尿病(5)

voice 2: In a healthy person, the body changes particular foods into a simple sugar - glucose. The glucose moves into the blood. This process causes the pancreas organ to produce insulin. Insulin helps the glucose move from the blood into the body's cells. The body can then use the glucose for energy, or store it. But what happens if the pancreas does not produce enough insulin? Or what happens if the body's cells do not use the insulin properly? Then, the result is diabetes.
声音2：健康的身体可以将特定食物转化为简单的糖类——葡萄糖。然后葡萄糖进入血液中。这一过程会使胰腺器官产生胰岛素。胰岛素帮助葡萄糖从血液进入细胞。随后，人体可以利用这些葡萄糖产生能量或储存起来。但是，如果胰腺不能产生足够的胰岛素会发生什么？或者如果人体细胞不能正确利用葡萄糖会发生什么？结果是，引发糖尿病。

voice 1: Doctors identify two types of diabetes. Type one is when the body's protection system wrongly attacks the cells that make the insulin. So the pancreas produces little or no insulin. Experts are still learning more about this diabetes - and it is harder to treat. However, it is far less common that type two.
声音1：医生发现了两种糖尿病。一型糖尿病指人体的保护系统错误地攻击了产生胰岛素的细胞。导致胰腺产生的胰岛素极少或无法产生胰岛素。专家仍在继续了解这种类型的糖尿病，而且这一类型很难治疗。但是，一型糖尿病远没有二型糖尿病常见。
