45、ream in supermarkets so that he can carry out spot checks for appearance and flavor. But, no matter how wonderful this job may sound, it is actually quite tough. Its difficult work, requiring discipline, selflessness, and thorough preparation.Before tasting a sample, Harrison uses his eyes first. If

46、 the ice cream doesnt look attractive, he skips it. Then, he uses a gold spoon instead of one made of wood, plastic, or other metals. This is because regular spoons leave an aftertaste that can dull the taste buds(味蕾). In addition, the temperature of the ice cream may also influence the tasters tast

47、e buds.When Harrison samples ice cream, he first takes only a small bite of the ice cream, swishes it around in his mouth to introduce it to each of his taste buds, lightly licks his lips, and then gently breathes in so as to bring the smell up through the back of his mouth to his nose. With each st

48、ep, he carefully sizes up whether the ice cream conveys the ideal balance between dairy sweetness and the flavor of the added ingredients. And last of all, no matter what the ice cream tastes like, he spits(吐) it out, since a full stomach makes for a dull palate(遲鈍的味覺(jué)).For Harrison, keeping a sharp

49、palate means no onions, garlic, or cayenne pepper. He also doesnt have any coffee or tea, since these block the taste buds. But to him, this is just a small price to pay for what he calls “the worlds best job” .Harrisons family has been in the ice-cream business for four generations, and Harrison hi

50、mself has spent almost his whole life in it as well. Yet, he has never lost his love of the cold, creamy sweetness. He orders ice cream in restaurants for dessert, even when hes not at work. On these occasions, he swallows the ice cream, taking in about a liter a week. Though he has gained some weig

51、ht over the years hes been with Dreyers, he couldnt care less. “Who would trust a skinny ice-cream taster?” he jokes.34. What is forbidden in Harrisons job?A. Doing shopping.B. Eating the ice cream.C. Using gold spoons.D. Skipping the ice scream.35. What can we learn about Harrison?A. He learned his

52、 work skills from his family.B. His job affects his appetite for the ice cream.C. He is willing to give up something for his job.D. He has to gain some weight to meet the need of work.36. What does Harrison think of his job?A. Creative.B. Ordinary.C. High-paying.D. Proud.37. What is the main purpose
