7 . You know the feeling — your ears start to warm up, your tongue goes numb (麻木的), and you start sweating and taking deep breaths. You’ve just eaten something spicy, knowing it would be painful, but you chose to do it anyway. Are humans just masochistic (自讨苦吃的), or is there something else going on?     1    

Spicy isn’t actually a taste like salty, sweet, sour and bitten — it’s a sensation.     2    . When we eat foods containing capsaicin (辣椒素), our bodies are tricked into thinking the temperature is actually rising. In trying to relieve the burning sensation, our bodies release endorphins (内啡肽) which control pain and, at the same time, give a feeling of pleasure — like painkillers.

This is what is happening chemically, but there is also a conscious side to choosing spicy food. Dr Tamara Rosenbaum, a Cognitive Neuroscientist, explains in an interview with the BBC that this is     3    . Furthermore, we obtain pleasure from the other ingredients chilli is generally cooked and eaten with—including fat, sugar and salt. So — like skydiving — eating chilli is a form of thrill-seeking,     4    

Humans, one of the few mammals on Earth that developed a taste for capsaicin, started cultivating chilli peppers about six thousand years ago. Human intervention changed the chilli pepper to suit human tastes and needs — including the pepper’s colour, size and capsaicin content-helping to explain the many different types of chilli peppers now available.     5    . We eat around 57.3 million tons of peppers globally each year, and chilli is a key ingredient in traditional dishes from Mexico to Korea.

A．It lies in both science and history

B．where we get pleasure from a seemingly negative sensation

C．This is caused by a chemical compound called ‘capsaicin’

D．It has something to do with human nature and body composition

E．why Steamed Fish Head with Chillies enjoys great popularity among Hunanese

F．Fast-forward to today, and our love affair with the chilli pepper is going strong

G．because we know that the burning sensation of chilli does not physically harm us

8 . What kind of food did the man suggest?

A．Chinese food.

B．Italian food

C．French food.

9 . 语法填空

Some inventions happen in strange ways. The potato chip is one of them.

Moon’s Lake House was     1     restaurant in New York in the 1850s. George Crum was the cook there. Many rich people often came to the restaurant     2     (enjoy) his cooking.

The one thing that really upset Crum was     3     a customer complained about the food and sent it back to the kitchen to be done over. He would often return it overcooked. He was happy to see the customer walk out of the restaurant     4     (angry).

On August 24, 1853, a customer returned his fried potatoes to the kitchen,     5     they weren’t crunchy (脆的) enough. Crum reacted in his     6     (usually) way. He cut the potatoes very thin and cooked them in hot oil. They were so crunchy and Crum was sure that the man would refuse     7     (eat) them. Instead, the man loved them. He even asked for more.

Now, do you know     8     invented the potato chip? It’s George Crum! He     9     (late) set up his own restaurant. He named it Crum’s House. He put baskets of his potato chips on all the tables. They made his restaurant a very popular place.

Today, potato chips are one of Americans’     10     (favor) foods!

10 . 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Of all the foods I have ever tried, the mooncake is my favourite. There are many     1     (version) of mooncakes from different places around China. They have     2     variety of fillings, among     3     I love the sweet red bean filling best. I remember     4     (try) my first mooncake with my family when I was very little. We sat outside in my grandparents’ yard while the full moon     5     (shine) above us. It was a very special moment. My elderly grandmother still     6     (bake) mooncakes for the whole family every year. She can make the flour and red beans into wonderful mooncakes     7     magic. When she places them on the table, they look     8     (adore)-small, round and shiny golden-brown. The delicious smell soon reaches my nose and my mouth starts to water. When I pick up a mooncake, it feels warm and heavy in my hand. As I take each bite, the sweet and mild flavour of the red bean filling     9     (slow) fills my mouth. The mooncake is always my favourite because of its     10     (satisfy) taste that is out of this world and the happy memories it brings to mind.
