17、 come with the process when you cut them up. Thankfully, Good Housekeeping has suggested some tips to prevent yourself from crying while trying to cut up an onion. According to the findings from the Institute, putting onions in a fridge 30 minutes before cutting can prevent the annoying hurt, as the
18、 cold stops tear-jerking(催泪的) gas from being produced. Another way to reduce the gas released by the onion is to put it in water for a while. Good Housekeeping recommends: “Cut the end off the onion and then put it straight into a bowl of water. The water will draw out the acid making you tear up le
19、ss when you cut it. ”When an onion grows, it mixes with sulfur (硫) in the soil to create a special mineral acid. When the onion is cut into pieces, it reacts and creates a gas. As it reaches your face, this annoying gas causes the eyes to produce tears. The root is where the gasses are most concentr
20、ated, so it is recommended that this part of the onion be left out as you cut it to avoid uncomfortable eyes. Do this by cutting the vegetable in half down the middle, then cut off part of one side to create a flat surface. Then , place the onion with its flat surface down and cut it towards the roo
21、t. Also, to reduce the gass effect on your eyes , cut it next to a window or near a fan so the gas is blown away from your face. And take care to use a sharp knife; this will make it easier to move through the vegetable, causing fewer cells to be broken and less gas to be released as a result. 28.Wh

Scientists finally found the answer but its not very pleasant. New science suggests a relationship betwee
25、n light pollution and the timing when trees produce buds, which signals the arrival of the spring season.Light pollution is defined by the Lighting Research Center as the unwanted consequence of outdoor lighting such as street lights. Excessive (过多的) man-made light at night results in disturbed natu
26、ral cycles, and also prevents the observation of stars and planets at night. But its effect on the environment goes beyond that.By studying some trees, researchers found out that trees that are more exposed to artificial lighting at night bud up to 7.5 days earlier than those at the natural nighttim
27、e setting. And they found out that light had a more significant effect than temperature when the buds came out. The early budding may cause problems for insects, which feed on leaves, and the birds which then feed on them in turn. Professor Richard French - Constant, who helped lead the research, ex
28、plained that more than the budding of trees, the study implies the danger to the balance of the ecosystem. “At the moment, caterpillars (毛毛虫) are timed to hatch to make the most of the opportunities to feed on freshly budded leaves, and birds hatch in time to feed on the young caterpillar,” he said.
29、来源:学.科.网Migratory (迁徙的) birds are also negatively affected by light pollution. The glare might confuse them and make them lose their flying sense. The phenomenon might explain why some birds accidentally knock into buildings.Such results stress the need to pursue studies that aim to measure the effe
