During his career Harrison has been responsible for approving large quantities of the sweet ice cream -
12、as well as for developing over 75 flavors（口味）.Some people think that it would be easy to do this job; after all, you just have to like ice cream, right? No theres more to the job than that, says Harrison, who has a degree in chemistry. He points out that a dairy or food-science degree would be very
13、useful to someone wanting a career in this “cool” field.In a typical morning on the job, Harrison tastes and assesses（评定） 60 ice cream samples. He lets the ice cream warm up to about 12F. Harrison explains, “You get more flavor from warmer ice cream, which is why some kids like to stir it, creating
14、ice cream soup.”While the ice cream warms up, Harrison look over the samples and grades each one on its appearance. “ Tasting begins with the eyes,” he explains. He checks to see if the ice cream is attractive and asks himself, “Does the product have the color expected from that flavor?” Next its ti

18、 but a headache. I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead of clothes that wouldnt fit. I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model. I realized this a day later, when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at se
19、venty-five dollars less than I had paid. The set worked so beautiful when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night. Fortunately, I didnt get any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed. Then I started developing a problem with
20、the set that involved static(静电) noise. For some reason, when certain shows changed into a commercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds. Gradually, this noise began to appear during a show, and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back. Sometimes this tec
21、hnique would not work, and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉) shaking my set. When neither of these methods removed the static noise, I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away. At last I ended up hitting the set w
22、ith my fist, and it stopped working altogether. My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the set is working well now, but I keep expecting more trouble.25.

25、 and after exercise is important to comfort and performance during exercise. While eating soon before exercise doesnt provide the fuel needed for the activity, it can prevent hunger during exercise. The major source of fuel for muscles is stored in the days before exercise. This is one reason that t
26、he post-exercise meal is very important to recovery and being ready for the next exercise.Exercising on a full stomach is not a good idea. Food that remains in your stomach during an event may cause a stomach upset. To make sure you have enough energy, yet reduce stomach discomfort, you should allow
27、 a meal to fully digest before the start of the event.If you have an early morning race or exercise, its best to get up early enough to eat your pre-exercise meal. If not, you should try to eat or drink something easily digestible about 20-30 minutes before the event. The closer you are to the time
28、of your event the less you should eat. You can have a liquid meal closer to your event than a solid meal because your stomach digests liquids faster.Because glucose(葡萄糖) is the energy source for most exercise, a pre-exercise meal should include foods that are high in carbohydrates(碳水化合物) and easy to
29、 digest. These include foods such as fruit, bread, energy bars and drinks.Planning is necessary if you are competing in an all-day event, such as track meets or other tournaments. You should plan ahead and prepare meals and snacks that you have tried before. Do not experiment with something new on t
