Proving this fact is a revolutionary electric fork designed by Japanese researchers that can make any dish taste salty. According to Hiromi Nakamura, a Post Doc Research Fellow at Tokyo’s Meiji University, the technology can be very useful for people on special diets. Patients with high blood pressure, for instance, can easily go on a lowsalt diet and still enjoy delicious food. And with the fork, there’s absolutely no risk of oversalting their food. Luckily, the voltage(電壓 ) is so small that there is no risk of electrocution(觸電 ) either. The idea of adding electricity to food was first exposed as an experiment at the Computer Human Interaction Conference in Austin, Texas, in 2020. Nakamura and her team connected a wire to a 9volt battery and passed it through a straw placed in a cup of sweet lemonade. Volunteers reported that the charged lemonade tasted ‘blander’, because the electricity created the taste of salt. Nakamura has improved the technology to be able to transfer an electric charge to food through forks and chopsticks. “The metallic part of the fork is one electrode (電極) , and the handle is the other,” Nakamura explained. “When you take a piece of food with the fork and put it in your mouth, you connect the circuit. When you remove the fork from your mouth, you disconnect the circuit. So it actually works as a switch.” Simon Klose, host of food program Munchies, who recently visited Nakamura to try out the fork himself, called this form of ‘food hacking’ one of the greatest eating experiences he’d ever had. “When I first heard of electric food, it sounded scary,” he sai d. He later continued to use a charged fork to eat pieces of fried chicken, and found that the saltiness considerably increased as the electricity was connected. Nakamura has been eating ‘electric’ food for the past three to four years in an attempt to understand it better. “For me, ‘food hacking’ is about strengthening or weakening real food,” she said. “It may seem like we’re cooking but we’re actually working on the human senses.” 60. The electric fork may benefit people who__________. A. need to go on a diet B. have high blood pressure C. prefer food free of salt D. show interest in tasty food 61. Paragraph 4 mainly tells us _________. A. how the electric fork works B. what makes the circuit connected C. how the technology was improved D. why the electric fork was invented 62. From the passage, we learn that the electric fork______. A. creates virtual taste B. changes people’s diets C. helps cure diseases D. replaces salt in cooking 60. 【答案】 B 【試題解析】 本題為細(xì)節(jié)題。 62. 【答案】 A 【試題解析】 本題為主旨題。 blends that contain slightly more caffeine than a cup of coffee, there is a variety sure to suit your needs.

Social media websites revolutionized the way people municate and socialize on the Web. However, aside from seeing your friends’ new baby on Facebook, or reading about Justin Bieber’s latest conflict with the law on Twitter, what are some of the real influences? Social works offer the opportunity for people to reconnect with their old friends and acquaintances, make new friends, share ideas and pictures, and many other activities. Users can keep pace with the latest global and local developments, and participate in campaigns and activities of their choice. Professionals use social media sites like LinkedIn to enhance their career and business development. Students can work together with their peers to improve their academic and munication skills. Unfortunately, there are a few downsides too to social working. If you are not careful, immoral people can target you for cyber bullying and disturbance on social sites. School children, young girls, and women can fall victim to online attacks which can create tension and suffering. If you are a victim of cyber bullying, do not take it lying down, but try to take appropriate legal action against the attacker. Many panies have blocked social works as addicted employees can distract themselves on such sites, instead of focusing on work. In fact, studies show that British panies have lost billions of dollars per year in productivity because of social media addiction among employees. Also, what you carelessly post on t
