Just as certain actors led me to acting, certain cooking-show hosts are partly to blame for my height-
ened interest in the subject of food.The first is of course Julia Child, the queen of culinary(烹饪的) TV.
Child not only changed what Americans cooked and ate, but also greatly impacted their diet of
weekly television viewing. Her show The French Chef, which originally aired in 1963, was one of the
first cooking shows on American television and lasted for 10 years. Watching her expertly debone a
chicken or bake a cake, often making mistakes along the way, made viewers feel that they too could cre-
ate such dishes. Her achievements were amazing, from her first work, Mastering the Art of French Cook-
ing, to countless others, as well as season upon season of shows.
Child has always interested me. My mother tuned in to The French Chef faithfully, and I remember
loving it. I know that watching The French Chef with my mom was a way to spend some time with her,
because with three kids and a full-time job, she was incredibly busy. In fact, we would often watch the
show when she was doing housework like ironing and cleaning.My mother admired Child and in turn
passed the feeling to me, along with an interest in how someone goes about cooking a meal.
Years later, I caught an old episode of the show at my parent’s home and watched it with even more
attentiveness than I had when I was young. On this particular occasion, I was taken aback(surprised) by
my reaction when Child said her signature farewell(告别), “This is Julia Child, bon appetite!” My eyes
suddenly welled up with tears, I realized that I was moved by Child not only because she brought back
happy boyhood memories but also because Child herself was so genuinely happy to be doing what she
was doing.
I saw at that moment the embodiment (典型) of what I, and so many of us, want to become: to spend
your life doing what you love and doing it well.
24.what do we know about Child?
A. She worked as a director for a TV show. B. She wrote books alout American food.
C. She participated in many cooking contests. D. She pioneered cooking shows in America.
25. Why did the young author watch The French Chef?
A. To relax after housework. B. To enjoy his mother’s company.
C. To learn to cook meals for himself. D. To free his mother from looking after kids.
26. What happened to the author when he watched Child’s show years later?
A. He was astonished by her farewell words. B. He felt regret for his boyhood.
C. He understood life’s goal. D. He showed less interest.
27. What does the author mainly talk about in the text?
A. Child’s contribution. B. Child’s effect on him.
C. Child’s wonderful life. D. Child's amazing show.
C
It has been known for a long time that obesity(肥胖) tends to run in families, but it was not until
about 20 years ago that scientists started to discover that changes in specific genes can have very large
impacts on our weight even from early childhood.
One of these genes MC4R makes a protein that is produced in the brain where it sends signals to
our appetite centers, telling them how much fat we have stored, When the MC4R gene does not work
properly, our brains think we have lower fat stores we do, signaling that we are starving and need to eat.
