My father is the man I respect most. Strict as he may be, however he never fails to show her care and consideration. Once I broke a neighbor window. Seeing nobody around, I ran away immediately. When Dad came home, he noticed my uneasiness and asked me what has happened. I could only tell him a truth. Instead of scold, he praised my honesty and then encouraged me to apologize our neighbor. I learned from this incident that not only does Dad take care of my health and he also teaches me what to be a good citizen. How luckily I am to have such a good father!

Everyone has something that make them happy. For me, happiness is sitting in front of a piano but losing myself in the world of music.

I still remember to playing the piano one Sunday afternoon. I felt so tiring after studying for a whole week. After thinking for a moment, I sat in front my piano. Gently pressing the keys with my fingers, I made a few simple but pleasant sound. Slowly, I closed my eyes and enjoyed the music. They reduced my stress and made me happily.

Happiness should be everything that accompanies us all the time. It’s like the butter to our bread --- we can’t do with it.

It was 3 thought that the sense of taste and smell were the only human senses that played a role in experiencing flavour. Professor Charles Spence, a sensory psychologist at Oxford University, is a leading expert in his field. He believes that it is possible to change the flavor of food simply by exciting people’s sense of hearing. For example, listening to waves hitting the sea shore can make 4 detect seafood flavours.

Professor Spence has also discovered that 5 changing the colour of a food can influence the way it tastes. He found that by changing a drink from yellow to a deep red, it is possible to make it taste up to 12 per cent sweeter than it really is. He said: ‘This colour has strong 6 with very ripe fruit.’

Flavour is not just as simple as the way something tastes, as all the other senses come into 7 and some can dominate the way the brain will 8 a food. Ice cream activates a part of the brain which is just behind the eyes and is where emotions are 9. By melting, it changes its physical 10 and creates contrasts that continually keep your senses interested.
