Do you know electricity can change the way we taste food? 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 low-salt diet and still enjoy delicious food. And with the fork, there’s absolutely no risk of over-salting their food. Luckily, the voltage(电压) is so small that there is no risk of electrocution(触电) either.

The idea of adding electricity to food was first exposed as an experiment at the Computer

Human Interaction Conference in Austin, Texas, in 2012. Nakamura and her team connected a wire

to a 9-volt 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（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 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 said. 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.”

1.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

2. Paragraph 4 mainly tells us _________.

A. how the electric fork works

C. how the technology was improved

D. why the electric fork was invented

3. From the passage, we learn that the electric fork______.

If you need to spend time on the road，it’s important to find ways to keep safe on your feet. Don’t suppose it's your right of way. Yes, you might be crossing at the right place, at the right time, within the crosswalk area, but you are still exposed to danger. It could be a distracted driver, or a cyclist with a loose sense of traffic rules, so you could still get hurt. You can be in the right legally, but that won’t be much help when you're in the hospital.

Follow pedestrian signals. Just as drivers aren’t supposed to speed up to beat a light when crossing through an intersection, pedestrians need to take the same care when obeying their own signals. If the hand is flashing and the countdown is into single digits (数字），stay where you are. Trying to outrun the flashing hand is unsafe，especially as cars try to clear the intersection before the light turns red.

Give drivers enough time to stop when crossing. Don’t suppose that drivers will jam on their brakes when you hit the crosswalk signals. Some provinces, such as Alberta, issue (发出）a ticket if you don’t give drivers enough time to brake.

Cross quickly. Once you’ve followed all of the other rules, and it is safe to cross the street, don’t then just wander along in front of six lanes (车道）of traffic. There’s no need to run or jog, but respect the drivers who respected you enough to stop for you.

1.Who is the text intended for?

A. Drivers.　　 　　 B. Cyclists. 　 C. Police.　　 D. Pedestrians.

2.What does the underlined word “distracted” in Paragraph 2 mean?

A. Considerate.　　 B. Strange.

C. Kind-hearted.　 D. Absent-minded.

3. In what case would pedestrians in Alberta be fined?

A. Racing against time with drivers.

B. Following crosswalk signals.

C. Crossing the crosswalk area.

D. Walking outside six lanes.

4. What can be a suitable title for the text?

A. Rules for Traffic Police

B. Tips to Keep Safe on Your Feet

C. Things Every Driver Should Know

D. Signals for Both Pedestrians and Drivers

The UK's first fully solar-powered home, which removes the need to ever receive a gas or electricity bill again, has gone on sale, but it will cost you £1.2 million.

The timber-framed home in Great Glen, Leicestershire, contains a number of “zero-carbon feature” including solar electric energy, triple glazing and rainwater storage. It is entirely heated by underground water-filled tubes that are warmed by solar energy from rooftop panels. The house was designed and built by Caplin Homes and covers two acres of land. The design and construction, down to the materials, were used specifically for their low carbon footprint.

The solar panels on the roof of the five-bedroom house are called hybrids because they collect both electrical and thermal energy. Solar walls preheat incoming air, and an Earth Energy Bank (EEB) and heat pump can store heat, and get it back for use when temperatures drop. The south-facing triple-glazed windows are said to also improve the house's energy management during the winter.

All the technologies are controlled by a control system, which monitors the inside and outside temperatures, how much energy is being received by the solar panels, and the heat levels in the EE domestic hot water tank. Due to its low energy design, the Solar House is expected to only require heat from the EEB for about 10 weeks of the year.

For £1.2 million, buyers also get two garages. Estate agent (房地产经纪人) Anthony Fox said the possibility of no utility bills was a big draw for potential owners: the idea is that your bills pretty much disappear and the house is self-sustaining and self-sufficient. That was a big aspect for most of the people who came to have a look around. “We had a lot of interest on the open day. There were some strong considerations to buy there and then. Everyone was very keen to learn how the house worked.” He added.

1.Which is true about the UK’s first fully solar-powered home?

A.It is directly heated by rooftop panels.

B.It has a set of heat-storage device available.

C.All of its materials are not environmentally friendly.

D.Its walls can keep cold air from coming in to store heat.

2.What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4?

A.The monitor of the temperature.

B.The amount of the received energy.

C.The function of the control system.

D.The significance of the new technologies.

3.What’s a big attraction for potential buyers according to Anthony Fox?

A.No gas or electricity bill. B.Two additional garages.

C.Unique structure of the house. D.Only £1.2 million for the house.

4.What is the purpose of the passage?

A.To advertise a zero-carbon house.

B.To recommend an amazing house.

C.To introduce a solar-powered house.

D.To explain how the low-energy house works.
