    Chefs typically toss(抛)the frying food into the air from deep, rounded pans or woks before catching it again. Launching rice and its fixings allows a chef to cook it over really hot flames without burning. At times, temperatures in a pan can reach 1,200 Celsius. 1.

Scientists found that the chefs relied on a specific pattern of motion. And they repeated those motions about three times a second. 2. At the same time the wok was rocked to and fro. The chefs used the edge of the stovetop as a fulcrum(支点)on which to balance as they rocked it.

Cooks use similarly complex patterns of movement to cook up other foods. 3.

Scientists used a computer to simulate(模仿)the tracks of rice that would occur in a wok moved in various ways. Along the way, the scientists hit on some key coo king tips. The wok moved in various ways. Along the way, the scientists hit on some key cooking tips. The rocking and sliding motions shouldn’t be done at the same time. 4. Also, the wok’s movements should repeat rapidly. Moving the wok even faster could launch the rice higher. That might allow cooking at higher temperatures and perhaps a quicker meal.

5. Chefs at Chinese restaurants can struggle with shoulder pain, studies have shown. Rapidly shaking their heavy woks could be part of the problem. One solution might be a stir-frying robot. It could be built based on their new found results to take the weight off chefs’ shoulders.

A.But faster shaking may be hard on a cook.

B.To make fried rice like a professional, use science.

C.If they are, the rice won’t mix well and could burn.

D.Each repetition included sliding a wok back and forth.

E.Cooking is hard work that needs patience and perseverance.

F.The high temperature helps create the tastiest stir-fried food.

G.They will turn the pan quickly, for instance, to get smooth, flat egg cakes.

 

1.F 2.D 3.G 4.C 5.A 【解析】 这是一篇说明文,科学家对厨师炒菜时向空中拋菜的动作进行了研究,发现了其中的科学道理。 1.根据F选项中的 “The high temperature”可知,F选项与上文提到的高温属于同一话题。故选F项。 2.根据D选项中的关键词 “repetition”可知,D选项与上句中的 “repeated”属于同一话题,顺理成章。故选D项。 3.G选项中的for instance是对上句中“use similarly complex patterns”的例证。故选G项。 4.根据空白处前一句:The rocking and sliding motions shouldn’t be done at the same time. 摇摆和滑动不应该同时进行。同时根据C选项中的“If they are”可推断,这个省略句的完整形式是:If they are done at the same time, the rice won’t mix well and could burn。如果是这样的话,米饭就不能混合在一起,会烧糊的。所以在语境上选项C符合题意。故选C项。 5.此空格位于段首,一般与上段内容有联系,同时引出下段内容。上段提到摇晃炒锅可以炒出好吃的菜。而本段主要讲述厨师的劳累。由此判断上下段之间为转折关系。由A选项中的But以及内容可知,A选项符合语境。故选A项。

    Now, according to a recent Brigham Young University study, the amount of time between sunrise and sunset is the clear winner among other weather variables when it comes to improving your mental and emotional health.

In this unique study-which brought together a psychologist, physicist and statistician-the researchers explored how someone’s mood is linked to weather and associated factors such as sunshine, cloudy days, temperature, rain and pollution. The study found that people are more likely to report mental trouble during shorter days with less sunshine.

It is generally believed that hot days, rainy days or days with thick pollution would make one feel more down and depressed. But the study came up with a surprising finding. It found that more than any other factor, reduced sun hours could increase mental distress(痛苦)while soaking up in sun makes things all right.

The results highlighted that the duration(时长)of the daylight was more significant in influencing people’s moods than the amount of sun rays being absorbed.

“On a rainy day, or a more polluted day, people assume that they’d have more distress. But we didn’t see that. We looked at solar irradiance(太阳辐照), or the amount of sunlight that actually hits the ground. We tried to take into account cloudy days, rainy days pollution… but they washed out. The one thing that was really significant was the amount of time between sunrise and sunset,” said professor Becker in a press release.

Many studies have attempted to explore the link between the weather and its effect on one’s mood, but the results were not conclusive. For this study, many important reason were taken into account-making the research an improvement to the previous ones.

The study concluded that public health should plan on effective strategies that can prevent emotional distress during periods when the sun time is less, such as in winter months.

1.What will affect your emotion most according to the new study?

A.The surroundings. B.The amount of sunshine.

C.The weather conditions. D.The duration of sunlight.

2.Why does the author think that the new finding in paragraph 3 is surprising?

A.Because it is a conclusion of three scientists.

B.Because it is different from the general belief.

C.Because it is too difficult to understand.

D.Because it is affected by so many factors.

3.Which season benefits people’s emotion more according to this study?

A.Spring. B.Summer.

C.Autumn. D.Winter.

4.What is the purpose of this new study?

A.To find ways to prevent depression.

B.To know more about the weather.

C.To provide strategies for public health.

D.To find how the weather affects mood.

    The place of exposure to the greatest amount of allergen(过敏原)for the longest time is in the bedroom. Up to 60% of the dust mites(螨虫)found in the home are actually living in your bed and you spend about one-third of your life in the bedroom! And, bedrooms are the easiest area to control as an allergen free zone. Your cleaning professional will first vacuum the mattress(垫子), carpeting and furniture using a vacuum cleaner.

The mattress is then thoroughly cleaned on all surfaces using the Responsible Care cleaning agents and a special low moisture cleaning tool designed to leave the mattress as dry as possible. Following cleaning, Allergy Relief Treatment is applied to all mattress surfaces using a fine mist application. The mattress is then placed in a drying position and a special air mover used to speed the drying process, which, depending upon temperature and humidity, normally takes about an hour.

The same safe cleaning agents are used to clean the bedroom carpeting and if desired, any furniture or rugs. This is also followed by an application of Allergy Relief Treatment. Once again, a speed drying system is set up to dry the cleaned items as quickly as possible and bring the humidity down to normal levels. Baseboards and windowsills are cleaned as well. While the cleaning and treatment service is being performed it is highly recommended that the bedding and pillows be washed in hot water and that two cups of Allergy Relief Treatment be added to the washing cycle.

While servicing the bedroom is the highest priority(优先), significant benefits may also result from cleaning and treating other areas where allergy sufferers spend lots of time. These areas include the furniture and carpeting in rooms where time is spent watching television, reading and so on. Also, carpeted areas that pets have access to should be cleaned and treated.

A test for the presence of dust mites in quantities requiring treatment is also available from our company. But we will only test dust mites and will not provide information on pet allergen.

A.Bed. B.Carpet.

C.Furniture. D.Floor.

    In January, 2017, snow began to fall across the Apennines. For days it came down, and the enormous drifts(雪堆)on the mountain grew taller by the hour.

In spite of the bad weather, Matrone and his wife decided to make the trip to the mountain resort and have an overnight getaway.
