color all have an effect on flavor,”says a University of Oxford team.Cheese tastes saltier when eaten from a knife rather than a fork;while white spoons makeyoghurt taste better,experiments show.The study in the journal Flavour suggests the brain makes judgments on food even before itgoes in the mouth.More than 100 students took part in three experiments looking at theinfluence of weight,color and shape of cutlery on taste.The researchers found that when theweight of the cutlery is consistent with expectations,this had an influence on how the foodtastes.For example,food tasted sweeter on the small spoons than are traditionally used to servedesserts.Color contrast was also an important factorwhite yoghurt eaten from a white spoon wasrated sweeter that white yoghur tasted on a black spoon.Similarly,when testers were offeredcheese on a knife,spoon,fork or toothpick,they found that the cheese on a knife tasted saltiest.“How we experience food is a multisensory experience involving taste,feel of the food inour mouths,pleasant smells,and he feasting of our eyes,”said Pro.Charles Spence and Dr.Vanessa Harrar.“Even before we put food into our mouths,our brains have made a judgmentabout it,which affects our overall experience.”Past research has shown that china can change our perception of food and drink.Forexample,people generally eat less when food is served on smaller plates.“The new research intohow the brain influences food perception could help dieters or improve gastronomic(美 食的)experiences at restaurants,”said Pro.Spence.He told BBC News:“Theres a lot more to foodthan whats on the plate.Many things we thought didnt matter do.Were going to see a lotmore of neuroscience(神经科学)design around mealtimes.”28.According to the text,we know that the cheese

in the future.C.Research on the effect of nerves and taste of food will be done.D.Research into plates and food will be carried out in the near future.DA“memory pill”that could aid exam revision and help to prevent people forgetting importantanniversaries may soon be available over the counter.The medicine has been designed originally to help treat Alzheimers disease,a diseasemarked by progressive loss of mental capacity resulting from weakening of the brain cells,butcould be adapted and licensed for sale in a weaker form within the next few years.One brand of memory-enhancing(增强记忆的)pill is being developed by the multinationalcompanyAstraZenecatogetherwithTargacept,anAmericancompany,whileEpixPharmaceuticals,also from the US,is developing another.Both have“Cognitive(认知的)-enhancing effects which are aimed at treating patients withage-related memory loss.Steven Ferris,a neurologist and former committee member of the Food and DrugAdministration in the US,has predicted that a milder version will be available for healthyconsumers as a lifestyle pill available over the counter.Dr.Ferris said:“My view is that one could gain approval,provided you showed the drugs tobe effective and safe.It could be a huge market.”There is evidence that mind-improving drugs are already being taken in Britain by healthyusers.Provigil,which was used to treat narcolepsy,is being taken by some students to help themstay awake.while Adderall XR and Ritalin,treatments for attention deficit disorder(注意力缺乏症),are being used to help promote concentration.A spokesman of Adderall XR said:“We get a lot of calls from college campuses asking aboutit.“There are risks though.It can raise blood pressure,people shouldnt do it.”The Department of Health said it v as not illegal to buy the medicines over the Internet,butit was not recommended.Barbara Sahakian,professor of clinical neuropsychology at Cambridge,said:“Its hard toquantify the scale of the phenomenon but its definitely catching on.“The reality is that we are not always at our best.After being up at night looking after thekids or travelling.many people would love to have something to refresh them.Its not prohibitedto drink Red Bull.The principle with cognition enhancers is not so different.”32.The“memory pill”,as is mentioned in the first paragraph,is not sold over the counter
