Until the seventh century, all educated Europeans knew Latin. It did not matter if they lived in England or Italy or France or Spain. If they were educated,

But when it moved north, the plant earned a different name. Remarkably, the settlers in North America t

26、hought it was poisonous. They believed that to eat it was surely to die. It was said that deserted suitors would threaten to eat a tomato to cause their coldhearted lovers regret. Because of this legend, the settlers called the tomato a love apple. While people enjoyed other native plants such as co

27、rn and sweet potatoes, everyone avoided the tomato. No one knows who first dared to eat a tomato. Perhaps someone was brave enough, or lovesick enough, to try out the truth of the rumors. Of course, whoever ate this fruit was perfectly safe. No one died from eating a love apple. Still, it was many y

28、ears before the people fully believed that the tomato was a safe, and even good food.

Eyelashes are useful for keeping out dust and other irritants, and tears wash away any particles that get through the other defenses. Some creatures, including most birds, have three eyelids. The upper and lower lids act like huma

32、n lids and keep out twigs, dirt and sand. The third eyelid, however, is a semitransparent tissue that crosses over the eye from the inside corner to the outside corner. Because of this protective membrane, birds seldom have to blink. They close their eyes only when they go to sleep. In ducks, this t

33、hird eyelid self as an underwater diving mask that helps the ducks find food. Most fish and snakes have no eyelids at all. Instead, a hard glassy covering protects their eyes. In fish, water constantly sweeps away dirt from the covering. And a snakes eyesight is usually so bad that a little dirt obs

34、curing its vision does not disturb it greatly. Eyelashes defend the eye by shading it from glare. They also act like miniature brushes to remove dust.

39、 CHEJ urges consumers to avoid using PVC shower curtains, as well as many other PVC products. For people who are concerned about their shower curtains, there are alternatives.
