    If I ask you to shut your eyes and gave you a piece of apple to eat, would you be able to tell me what it is just by tasting it? Of course, you could. Your tongue is covered with tiny “taste buds” which help you know what different foods taste like. Do you know that foods would taste different if you did not have a nose? This experiment shows how important your nose is when you taste things.
    What You Need:
    ? a friend to help
    ? small pieces of any food like carrot, orange, banana
    ? small pieces of apple, raw(生的) potato, and onion
    What You Do:
    There are actually three different experiments. You and your friend should take turns to try them on each other.
    Experiment 1:
    Have your friend close her eyes and open her mouth.
    Give her a piece of the food and ask her to taste it.
    Then, ask her what she thinks it is. She will probably guess correctly.
    Experiment 2:
    While your friend has her eyes closed, give her a piece of the raw potato. At the same time, hold a piece of apple right under her nose. Ask her to eat the potato (but don’t call it by name) and tell you what she thinks it is. She will say it is a piece of apple!
    Experiment 3: (for the brave)
    Take a piece of raw onion. You don’t have to close your eyes this time. Squeeze your nose closed with your other hand so that no smells can get into your nose. Now take a nibble of the onion. Surprise! As long as you hold your nose, you will not be able to taste the onion.
    The Science Secret
    You already know the science secret. Your nose and your tongue work together to make food taste the way it does. Your tongue, however, can taste only certain flavors like salty, bitter, sour, and sweet. All of the other “tastes” are actually “smells,” and you need your nose to “taste” them. Oh, and you might use this science secret the next time you are told to eat something you don’t like the taste of. If you hold your nose while you eat it, you won’t “taste” it at all.
    小题1: According to this article, what could a reader know about food?
    A．People hold their noses to eat onions.B．If you can smell potatoes, you will taste apples.
    C．People need a sense of smell to taste some food.D．If you close your eyes, food will taste better.
    小题2:What is the most likely reason Experiment 3 is called “for the brave”?
    A．You keep your eyes open.B．You have to eat a raw onion.
    C．You have to squeeze your nose.D．You do the experiment alone.
    小题3:What’s the best title of the passage?
    A．Your Eyes KnowsB．Your Nose Knows
    C．Your Mouth KnowsD．Your Tongue Knows

         Some people have good memories. T hey can easily learn a long poem by heart.   There are others who
    can only remember things when they have said again and again. The famous English writer Charles Dickens
    said that he could walk down any street in London and then tell you the name of every shop he had passed. 
     Many of the great men of the world have had wonderful memories.    A good memory is a great help in
    learning a language.  Everybody learns his own language by remembering what he hears when he is a small
    child.  Some children like boys and girls don't live in their own country, and they seem to learn two languages
    almost as easily as one.  In schools it is not so easy to learn a foreign language because students have so little
    time for it and they are busy with other lessons, too. A man's mind is rather like a camera,  but it takes photos
    not only of what we see but of what to feel, hear, smell and taste.     When we take a real photo with a camera, therc is much to do before the photo is finished and ready to show to our friends.  In the same way, there is
    much work to be done before we can keep a picture for ever in our minds. Memory is the diary we all carry
    about with us.

    Cats’ sense of smell is very important to their health. Many cat owners have seen a cat smell the food and refuses it. Careful sniffing tells the cat if something is safe to eat.

    Cats have a pair of vomeronasal organs(犁鼻器) on the roof of the mouth. When the cat wants to sniff, she will breathe the air in through her mouth. At this moment, she will often squint(斜视) her eyes and maybe even flatten(使…平坦) her ears. This makes her look like she is making faces. The vomeronasal organs will then analyze the smell---almost as if the cat is tasting the smell.
    When you come home from outside the house, your cat can smell what you had for lunch and for a mid-afternoon snack. She can smell the people you shook hands with and your neighbour you stopped to talk to and hug. She can smell the grass brought under your shoes as you took a shortcut across the lawn. Your cat’s sense of smell is so good that she can smell difference between a gallon of water with a teaspoon of salt in it and plain water. In comparison, we think of salt as completely tasteless.
    Cats have scent glands(臭腺) on each side of the forehead, on the chin, the lips and next to the tail. When your cat rubs up against your hand, your leg, the sofa, and your bed, she is leaving her scent in those things. She will then use her sense of smell to recognize “her” things, people and even other pets in the home.
    If you want to have fun with your cat’s sense of smell, take some small bits of different things, such as a bit of chicken, some flowers and some fish. Place each different scent under a piece of paper towel(so your cat cannot see any of them) and encourage your cat to investigate and find what kind of food she likes to eat best.
    小题1:Cats know whether the food is fit to eat or not with their____________.
    A．sense of touchB．scent glandsC．organs of smellD．sense of taste
    小题2:The third paragraph was written mainly to prove that _____________.
    A．cats are very smart
    B．cats have a good sense as dogs
    C．salty water has a special smell
    D．cats’ sense of smell is excellent
    小题3:What does your cat do when it rubs against your foot?
    A．She puts her scent on it.
    B．She shows respect to you.
    C．She asks you to play with her.
    D．She smells where you were just now.
    小题4:What does the word “investigate” mean in the last paragraph?
    A．Smell.B．See.C．Search.D．Send.
    小题5:The passage mainly tells us _________________.
    A．cats are one of our best friends
    B．cats have sharp sense of smell
    C．sense of smell is very important
    D．cats know if something is safe to eat
