But the apples on those trees were much more bitter(哭的) than the ones youd find in the supermarket today. John didnt expect has apples to be eaten whole, but rather made hard apple cider(苹果酒).Like most four-legged animals, cats have five toes on the front paws, but their back paws only have four toes.

Is it the smell of fresh pizza, or the sight of your favorite desserts? Food that looks and smells good will probably taste good, but what about sound? Is that important, too?Scientists now believe that the taste of food can change when your ears hear different sounds, but it has to be right kind of sound. When you turn on a microwave with popcorn in it, it soon starts to pop. Do you think, That sounds tasty!?Not really, you probably think its nearly ready. But when you smell it, you go to get the salt and the butter. Hearing the popcorn makes you think about it, but smelling it tells you that it tastes good. So what arc the sounds to change the tastes of the things?In an experiment(实验)in a fish restaurant, customers(顾客)listened to the sound of the seaside while they ate. Did it make a difference? Yes, it did Listening to the sea seemed to improve the taste of the food. It was fresher and saltier. When the restaurant tried the same experiment with the sound of the farm animals, there was no difference in taste. The results are going to be useful for restaurants. Perhaps they will try to use fewer unhealthy things, like salt and sugar in food With the right music or sounds, perhaps we wont taste the difference. Restaurants are also beginning to set a connection(联系)between food and the sound that the packet(包装袋)makes. Pick up a packet of your favorite potato chips, what does it sound like? One restaurant recently changed the material(材料)that they used to make their potato chip packets because experiments show that the packet which makes a right noise will make customers think the potato chips are fresher. Another idea is that a list of music will begin to appear on food packets, so if you dont like your green vegetables, the right music or sounds could help you learn to love them. （1）According to the passage, what do you do when popcorn makes noise in the microwave? A . You plan what you will put on it.B . You start to smell it.C . You take it out of the microwave.D . You begin to imagine the taste of it.（2）What does the word improve in Paragraph 3 mean in tile third paragraph? A . Make something better.B . Make something worse.C . Make something useful.D . Make something bigger.（3）Why is the material of the food bag important? A . Customers want it to sound and look right.B . Customers enjoy looking at the different materials.C . Customers think the food is good if it makes the right sound.D . Customers dont like noisy packet.（4）The writer wrote the passage. A . to find out if people like pizzaB . to explain how sound can change the tastes of foodC . to tell different tastes and smells of foodD . to make people eat more green vegetables19. （8分）阅读理解 Since the 1970s, scientists have been searching for ways to link the brain with computers. Brain-computer interface (BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send commands to machines.Recently, two researchers, Jose Millan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytechnic School in Lausanne, Switzerland, demonstrated(展示) a small robotic wheelchair directed by a persons thoughts. In the laboratory, Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right hand. He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with his thoughts.Our brain has billions of nerve cells These send signals through the spinal cord(脊髓) to the muscles to give us the ability to move. But spinal cord injuries or other conditions can prevent these weak electrical signals from reaching the muscles, Tavella says. Our system allows disabled people to communicate with external (外部的) world and also to control devices.The researchers designed a special cap for the users. This head cover picks up the signals from the scalp(头皮) and sends them to a computer. The computer interprets (translate) the signals and commands the motorized wheelchair. The wheelchair also has two cameras that identify (find or discover) objects in its paths. They help the computer react to commands from the brain.Professor Millan, the team leader, says scientists keep improving the computer software that interprets brain signals and turns them into simple commands. The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled people can be grouped in two categories: communication and controlling devices. One example is this wheelchair. He says his team has set two goals. One is testing with real patients, so as to prove that this is a technology they can benefit from. And the other is to guarantee that they can use the technology over long periods of time.（1）BCI is a technology that can .A . help to update computer systemsB . link the human brain with computerC . help the disabled to recoverD . control a persons thoughts（2）How did Tavella operate the wheelchair in the laboratory? A . By controlling his muscles.B . By talking to the machine.C . By moving his hand.D . By using his mind.（3）Which of the following shows the path of the signals described in Paragraph 4? A . Scalp-computer-cap-wheelchair.B . Computer-cap-scalp-wheelchair.C . Scalp- cap-computer-wheelchair.D . Cap-computer- scalp-wheelchair.（4）Which of the following would be the best title for the text? A . Switzerland, tile BCI Research CenterB . New Finding about How the Human Brain WorksC . BCI Could Mean More Freedom for the DisabledD . Robotic Vehicles Could Help to Cure Brain Injuries20. （10分）Do you believe in love at the first sight? Many people answer No, we dont, but I say I do.why?
