Ice Cream Taster Has Sweet Job John Harrison has what must be the most wanted job in the United States. He’s the official taster for Edy’s Grand Ice Cream, one of the nation’s best-selling brands. Harrison’s taste buds are insured for $1 million. ___1___ And when he isn’t doing that, he travels, buying Edy’s in supermarkets all over the country so that he can check for perfect appearance, texture, and flavor. After I interviewed Harrison, I realized that the life of an ice cream taster isn’t all Cookies ’n Cream — a flavor that* he invented, by the way. No, it’s extremely hard work, which requires discipline and selflessness. For one thing, he doesn’t swallow on the job. Like a coffee taster, Harrison spits. Using a gold spoon to avoid “off” flavors, he takes a small bite and moves it around in his mouth to introduce it to all 9,000 or so taste buds. ___2___ Then he breathes in gently to bring the aroma up through the back of his nose. Each step helps Harrison evaluate whether the ice cream has a good balance of dairy, sweetness, and added ingredients 一 the three-flavor components of ice cream. Then, even if the ice cream tastes heavenly, he puts it into a trash can. A full stomach makes it, impossible to judge the quality of the flavors.During the workweek, Harrison told me that he has to make other sacrifices, too: no onions, garlic, or spicy food, and no caffeine. Caffeine will block the taste buds, he says, so his breakfast is a cup of herbal tea. ___3___ Harrison’s family has been in the ice cream business in one way or another1 for four generations, so Harrison has spent his entire life with it2. However, he has never lost his love for its cold, creamy sweetness. ___4___ On these occasions3, he does swallow, and he eats about a quart (0.95 liters) each week. By comparison4, the average person in the United States eats 23.2 quarts (21. 96 liters) of ice cream and other frozen dairy products each year.Edy’s ice cream is available in dozens of flavors. So what flavor does the best-trained ice-cream taster in the country prefer? Vanilla! In fact, vanilla is the best-selling variety in the United States. ___5___ “It’s a very complex flavor,” Harrison says.词汇： taste bud 味蕾texture /'tekst /a/ n. 质地aroma / 'r um / n. 芳香vanilla /v 'ml / n. 香草注释：1. in one way or another：以某种方式,用这样或那样的方式2. has spent his entire life with it：为此他已付出一生。spend.…with sth.：花（时间等）在某事上3. on these occasions：在这种场合下4. by comparison：相比之下练习：A However, you should never call it plain vanilla.B He even orders ice cream in restaurants for dessert.C Next he smack-smack-smacks his lips to get some air into the sample.D This is a small price to pay for what he calls the world’s best job.E In his younger days, he would help out at the ice cream factory his uncle owned.F He gets to sample 60 ice creams a day at Edy’s headquarters in Oakland, California.

单选题Passage2The ritual of English tea time is believed to have originated in the late 1700's when Anna，Duchess of Bedford，ordered that a plate of cakes be sent up to her with her afternoon cup of tea.The Duchess chronically experienced a "sinking feeling"（what we would term" low blood sugar"）in the late afternoon. To tide her over the long hours between meals she turned to carbohydrates.Other royals immediately copied the Duchess，and afternoon tea parties became quite fashionable. Low tables were set up in front of sofas and chairs，and the ladies found a new opportunity to show off pretty clothes，fine china，embroidered linen tablecloths and napkins，and silver tableware.Tea time was also the time to exchange juicy gossip and serve refreshments. Soon darling little sandwiches and sweet pastries as well as scones were being arranged on decorative stands and plates for the ladies' pleasure.The tea party mania quickly spread across the Atlantic where tea was already enjoyed as a beverage. This fondness for tea was later suppressed by the patriotic Americans during the era immediately preceding the American Revolution because of the unreasonable British tax on tea.However，by April 27，1776，Congress announced in the Philadelphia Packet that“ the drinking of tea can now be indulged.”The custom of afternoon tea parties was not really revived in this country, though, until the mid-1800's, when Victorian ways were in vogue here. Leisure-class American ladies began having "kettledrums"at 4 p.m."Kettledrums" was called that in connection with the term" teakettle." Petits fours and other dainty delights were served amid Victorian opulence.A Victorian diarist, Maud Berkeley(Maud: The Illustrated Diary of a Victorian Woman, Chronicle Books,1987) gave an anecdote concerning tea time:" Mrs. Barnes had out a lovely tea-cloth for her tea-party, worked all over with cyclamens and honeysuckle. Shoggie Boucher, unused to such dainty, contrived to slop his tea all over it. Thankful it was not I. As it was, my new feather boa, which I wore for the first time, got into my teacup, causing much alarm and merriment to all assembled. Lilian Black-Barnes was, as ever, strong in adversity and wrung out the offending object in the kitchen sink. Fear it may never be the same again, none the less."My family, mother, and I were able to relieve some of that sophisticated elegance(minus the drippy boa) when we had tea at the Ritz in London. The Palm Court, an open area on the ground floor of the hotel, is a study in turn-of-the-century decor. Gilt statuary, palms, and other plants, and stylishly-set little tables beckon welcomingly under high-up, rose-tinted skylights.Our waiter brought us a selection of finger sandwiches of smoked salmon, ham, cucumber, Cheddar cheese, cream cheese, and chives, or egg salad. Scones(similar to American biscuits) were offered with butter, and various preserves and jellies.Along with this we were served Indian or China tea, and hot chocolate for my young daughter. Then the dapper waiter presented a vast tray holding many French pastries and cakes from which we could choose. After several teeny sandwiches and a couple of marmalade-coated scones, a chocolate eclair seemed to add carbohydrate overload to carboload, but "when in England, do as the English do."This tea feast was served between 3:30 and 5:30 p.m. Around 10:00 p.m., we had regained just enough appetite to sample some fish and chips(French fries), and then we put our weary stomachs and ourselves to bed.Which of the following is a typical feature of Victorian tea time?AAn occasion to gather with family.BAn occasion to demonstrate patriotism.CAn occasion to show off delicacy and eleganceDAn occasion to entertain the British royal members.

问答题Did you ever have an 21 or an idea that you knew was important, but you couldn’t put it into words? Poetry is one kind of writing that can capture such emotions and ideas and give them form. A poet’s 22 is different from that of other kind of writers. Imagine a scientist writing about ice cream. The scientist might discuss the 21 of milk fat in the ice cream or its 21 .
