2019-2020年高考英語一輪復(fù)習(xí)話題語篇專攻練26降飲食一外研版. 閱讀理解AHeres an experiment: take a bite of whatever food you have nearby and listen to some music, something with high notes. Now, take another bite, but listen to something with low notes. Notice anything? Researchers at the University of Oxford have been looking for a link between sound and taste. Theyve found that higher-pitched musicthink flutesenhances the flavor of sweet or sour foods. Lower-pitched sounds, like tubas, increase the bitter flavors. Charles Spence is leading that study into what he and his team call“multi-sensory food perception”. Spence tells how taste is the sense that unifies all of the others. “Flavor is probably one of the most multi-sensory of our experiences. . . because it does involve taste and more smell than we realize, ”Spence says. “But all of the senses e together to give us that one unified experience of flavor. ”“Texture is one of the more clear ways sound plays into taste, ”Spence says. “Think of the crackling of chips or the fizzy sounds of a carbonated drinksound plays a major role in our experience of those textures. ”“But the other place where sound affects taste, ”Spence says, “is in the environment; imagine listening to the sounds of the sea while youre eating fish at a seaside restaurant. ”Spences team is currently working on what he calls“synesthetic sounds”. By asking tasters to match flavors with sounds, they discovered the connection between high-pitched sounds and sweets and low-pitched sounds and bitter tastes. “You can then start creating experiences where you play particular kinds of music or sounds cape to diners or to drinkers while theyre tasting, ”he says. “Were able to show that we can change the experience in the mouth by about 5 or 10 percent. ”Another one of the projects Spences team has worked on was something called“sonic seasoning”. Theyd take the results of taste tests involving a myriad of flavors to posers and sound designers, whod then craft sound experiences to match those taste experiences. 【文章大意】想提高你對(duì)食物的感覺嗎? 那么去聽聽音樂吧。高音調(diào)的音樂, 像長笛, 能增強(qiáng)甜味或酸味食物的味道。較低音調(diào)的音樂, 像大號(hào), 能增強(qiáng)苦味食物的味道。1.

You can stick your finger through their muscles. Try doing that with a chicken or cow. Fish muscle is very different from that in land animals. Why? Because fish can afford to be lazier than land animals. Fish essentially float all the time. Fish dont have to support their body weight, so their muscle fibers are shorter and less tough than those in land animals. ”The same goes for the connective tissue holding the muscle fibers together: Its delicate and weak. By contrast, “Land animalslike ourselvesare always working to keep themselvesupright and keep their shape, ”Mouritsen says, “so our muscle fibers are thicker, tougher and firmer. ”In general, the more a muscle works, the tougher it gets. This idea explains why the belly of the tuna is very soft: The belly of the fish is the laziest muscle of them all. In contrast, those muscles that are more active in a tuna; the ones in its fins and tails, are a bit more chewier than other muscles. The muscle properties of fish also explain the rainbow of colors you see. “Fish that are constantly on the movelike a tunahave muscles that are always working and burning carbohydrates aerobically, ”Mouritsen says. The muscles need oxygen to make energy. And the molecule that carries oxygen to muscle contains iron. Guess what color iron is in the fish? Red. In contrast, fish that mostly hang out in one place or on the bottom of the ocean have muscles that dont rely on oxygen to create energy. No oxygen means no iron to carry it, which means the muscles tend to be white. So what about the salmon? They eat shellfish that are enriched with a pigment thats related to carotene in carrots. This pigment creates the characteristic bluish-gray or green color of raw shrimp and crabs. The molecule turns bright pink or orange when the salmon eats the shellfish or we cook it. 【文章大意】為什么我們喜歡生吃魚肉, 而不是其他的肉類呢? 主要是因?yàn)轸~肉柔軟, 纖維短。造成這種情況的原因是魚類可以在海里漂浮, 而不用活動(dòng)來支撐自己的體重等。5.

Friends sit down with each other, not just over the occasional meal, but frequently and often. _2_Texting and websites are part of modern friendship, but alone, they are not enough. Start each day by considering the worst that can happen. _3_But the odd thing is that it isnt. In fact, the day will never look better. So hug the worst; it probably wont happen. And enjoy the day. _4_There is a source of knowledge and insight all around us, and yet we barely notice its there. Its not Google. Its the strangers with whom we share our world. What is friendship, what is happiness, what is love? It was an extraordinary thing to do, and led to nothing less than the invention of philosophy. _5_If theres one quality that you need not just to live, but to live well, its curiosity. With that, youll really see the world, and your life, and imagine it in a different light. Poetry is hard, so turn your observations into a blog. And see how you see things differently. A.
