22、tulated himself through nearly a case of beer.I tried not to be noticed within a sea of faces. I wanted no one to guess whose kid I was. I wanted to run away.

23、ven more attention, and the speaker, who had never met me, decided to use me as his audio-visual aid.“This bright young lady, with the bright red hair.” His voice rolled clearly through the hall, as I sank lower in my seat.

29、even the smallest amount of chili in their dinner while others cant get enough of it.Scientists have long been puzzled by why some people love chili while others loathe it. Plenty of research has been done on the subject, dating as far back as the 1970s. Previous results showed that a love of chili
30、is related to childhood experiences, and cultural influences affect our taste buds too. But the latest study has found that a persons love of spicy food may be linked to his or her personality more than anything else, CBC News reported.“We have always assumed that liking drives intakewe eat what we
31、like and we like what we eat. But no one has actually directly bothered to connect these personality traits with intake of chili peppers,” said Professor John Hayes from Pennsylvania State University, who led the study.But before we look at the study, you should first know that “spicy” is not a tast
32、e, unlike sour, sweet, bitter and salty. It is, in fact, a burning feeling that you have on the surface of your tongue. This got scientists thinking that maybe a love of spicy food is brought about by peoples longing for thrill, something they usually get from watching action movies or riding a roll
33、er coaster.In the study, 97 participants, both male and female, were asked to fill out questionnaires about certain traits of their personality, for example, whether they like new experiences or tend to avoid risks. They were then given a glass of water with capsaicin, the plant chemical that makes
34、a chili burn, mixed into it.By comparing the answers to the questionnaire and what participants said they felt about the spicy water, researchers found that those who tended to enjoy action movies or take risks were about six times more likely to enjoy the spicy water.Interestingly, we used to belie
35、ve that the reason some people can stand spicy food is that their tongues have become less sensitive to it. However, this latest study has found otherwise. “Its not that it doesnt burn as badly, its that you actually learn to like the burn,” Hayes explained.46. Para. 2 is organized by _.A. giving ex
36、amples in peoples daily life B. telling some previous and latest storiesC. comparing the past and present studies D. analyzing causes and effects of loving chili47.

38、t a hand-crafted green bicycle.After months of painstaking research, designer Vijay Sharma came up with the first model for a bamboo bicycle.Like a conventional bike, the Bambike uses metal and rubber for brakes, chains and tires. But, Sharma has replaced the steel frame for one made of bamboo, held
39、 together with hemp fiber and resin(树脂).It can be strong enough to stand rough rides as the bamboos tube-shaped structure and strength give it shock absorbing power for unsmooth roads.Sharma says that bamboo has unique characteristics that make it the perfect material for bicycles.“Steel does not ab
40、sorb that many shocks but bamboo has the characteristic of absorbing shocks, so even on bad roads you dont require shock absorbers when using the bamboo bike. So that is one added advantage compared to a normal bicycle.”To overcome the problem of shaking at high speeds, Sharma improved the design by
41、 using thicker bamboo, which was treated and hardened with fire and held together with hemp fiber.How good is the Bambike? It was put to the test at the mountain biking event “Tour of the Nilgiris” in December 2009.Ravi Ranjan, founder of “Tour of the Nilgiris”, says that the bamboo bicycle has good
42、 features and looks beautiful but some additions can improve its efficiency and functionality.“I feel the Bambike could be improved with front and rear de-railers, gears(齿轮), a better seat post and a pedal(踏板) with cleats which makes the bike more efficient. The bike itself as it is has very good fr
43、ame structure, and is lighter as compared to many of the bikes available otherwise.”While the Bambike is still waiting to go into commercial production, some eager cyclists like Manjula Sridhar have had a chance to take it for a spin. She says the concept of Bambike is completely in tune with nature
44、.“The Bambike is great. Biking means nature, biking means greenery, biking means fitness, so I think, it kind of combines all those together.”Sharma hopes that the eco-friendly nature of the design will attract cyclists to buy Bambikes. 49. It can be learned from the passage the of the Bambike is/ are m
