三、阅读理解
（A）
Do you know electricity can change the way we taste food Don't feel surprised at the fact. A
special electric fork invented by Japanese researchers could make any dish taste salty.
According to Hiromi Nakamura, a Post Doctor Researcher at Meiji University
of Japan, the technology can be very useful for people with special eating habits.
For example, the sick with high blood pressure(高血压) can easily develop a
low-salt eating habit and still enjoy delicious food. And with the fork, there's
totally no risk of over-salting their food. Luckily, the voltage(电压) is so small that it is safe to
use the fork.
The idea of adding electricity to food was first shown to public as an experiment at the Computer
Human Interaction Conference in Austin, Texas, in 2012. Nakamura and her team connected a wire(导
线) to a 9-volt battery(电池) and passed it through a straw(吸管) placed in a cup of sweet lemonade.
Volunteers reported that the lemonade tasted not as sweet as it usually was, because the electricity
created the taste of salt.
Nakamura has improved the technology to be able to make the electricity reach
the food through forks and chopsticks. "The metallic part of the fork is one electrode
(电 极), 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 take the fork out of your mouth, you disconnect the circuit. So it actually works as a switch. "
Simon Klose, TV presenter of food program Munchies, who recently visited Nakamura to try out
the fork himself, then said it was one of the greatest eating experiences he'd ever had. "When I first
heard of electric food, it sounded terrible, " he said. He later continued to use the fork to eat pieces of
fried chicken, and found that the saltiness greatly increased as the electricity was connected.
Nakamura has been eating ''electric" food for the past three to four years in order to understand it
better. "For me, "she said, "it may seem like we're cooking but we're actually working on the human
taste. "
(　　)1. The electric fork may be good for people who _________ .
A. need to lose weight B. work as researchers
C. show interest in physics D. have high blood pressure
(　　)2. Paragraph 4 mainly tells us _________ .
A. what creates the taste of salt B. how the electric fork works
C. where the electric fork was invented D. when the technology was known to public
(　　)3. What can we learn from the passage
A. The electric fork can create unreal taste.
B. A researcher from the USA invented the electric fork.
C. People can use the electric fork by pushing the switch.
D. The idea of adding electricity to food was first shown in a TV program.
(　　)4. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage
A. A Famous. Researcher B. An Interesting Experiment
C. A New Invention D. A Great Eating Experience
B
Whenever you walk past a cafe, you might be drawn in by the smell of freshly made coffee. But the minute you try this dark drink you will regret it, because it tastes like bitter Chinese medicine.
Why does something that smells so good tastes so bad Many people are curious about this, but now scientists say they have found the answer—it lies in our “second sense(感觉) of smell”， according to The Telegraph.
“We have two senses of smell，” explained Barry Smith, a professor of the University of London. “One is when you breathe in things from the environment, and the other is when the air comes up to the nose and is breathed out through the nose.”
When we drink coffee, for example, the act of swallowing(吞咽) sends a burst of smell up the back of our nose from inside the mouth. This wakes up the second sense of smell in our brain. But it is weaker and less sensitive to flavours(味道). As a result, it gives us a completely different feeling.
In fact, the second sense of smell plays a big part in our eating experience. It may be common sense that we smell through our nose and taste using our tongue(舌头). But the truth is 80 percent of what we think of as taste actually reaches us through smell. Just hold your nose while eating and you will notice that your tongue can only catch a very small part of the flavour.
( )6. Why does something that smells so good tastes so bad
A. Because we have two senses of smell.
B. Because our “second sense of smell” works.
C. Because different people have different tastes.
D. Because people have both tongues and noses.
( )7. Which body part does not play a role in sensing the flavour
A. The nose. B. The tongue. C. The eyes. D. The mouth.
( )8. Which of the following is NOT true
A. We have two senses of smell.
B. The first sense of smell is weaker and less sensitive to flavours.
C. The tongue can only catch a small part of the flavour.
D. We usually think we smell through our nose and taste using our tongue.
( )9. The underlined word “sensitive” in the fourth paragraph means “________”.
A. 敏感的 B. 迟钝的 C. 强烈的 D. 虚弱的
( )10. The best title for this passage is “________”.
A. Smell good or taste bad B. The second sense of smell
C. Coffee tastes like bitter Chinese medicine D. Our tongue and nose

六、任务型阅读
Many people believe that confident people think more highly of themselves, while those who have low self-esteem (自尊) think less of their good qualities. However, a new study says it might not be true, reported The Guardian.
The study was done by Jonathan Freeman, a psychology (心理学) professor from the University of London, UK. He found that 98 percent of British people consider themselves to be among the nicest 50 percent of the population.
In the study, Freeman first asked some people to rate (评级) their own niceness. Then he got people to answer questions like “Do you give directions to strangers ” and “Have you ever donated blood ”. The results showed that people are not as nice as they think they are. Two thirds of them seldom helped others carry heavy shopping bags, and only a quarter of them donated blood.
In another study by psychologists from universities in Chicago and Virginia, US, some people were shown pictures of themselves. Some pictures had been slightly changed to make them appear more attractive. When asked to pick the unchanged pictures, people usually chose the more attractive ones.
So, why do we think we’re nicer than we actually are
There are many theories (理论). A popular one says we unconsciously (无意识地) deceive (欺骗) ourselves, so that we can get confidence without knowingly lying to ourselves or each other.
How can we solve it Other studies show that there is a simple way: feedback (反馈). Compare others’ opinion toward yourself with your own and you will see a clearer picture.
