1、have just finished cutting three cart-loads of golden brownmacaroni stalks. The whole village has been working day and night gathering and threshing this years crop before the September rains. On the right, you can see Mrs Brabante herself. She has been helping her husband for thirty years now. Mrs
2、Brabante is talking to the manager of the local factory where the crop is processed. This last scene shows you what will happen at the end of the harvest : the famous Calabrian macaroni-eating competition ! Signor Fratelli, the present champion, has won it every year since 1961. And that ends our sp
3、ecial bulletin for today, Thursday, April 1st. We are now returning you to the studio.Lesson77 A successful operation 一例成功的手术The mummy of an Egyptian woman who died in 800 B.C. has just had an operation. The mummy is that of Shepenmut who was once a singer in the Temple of Thebes. As there were stra
4、nge marks on the X-ray plates taken of the mummy, doctors have been trying to find out whether the woman died of a rare disease. The only way to do this was to operate. The operation, which lasted for over four hours, proved to be very difficult because of the hard resin which covered the skin. The
5、doctors removed a section of the mummy and sent it to a laboratory. They also found something which the X-ray of the god Duamutef. This god which has the head of a cow was normally placedinside a mummy. The doctors have not yet decided how the woman died. They feared that the mummy would fall to pie
6、ces when they cut it open, but fortunately this has not happened. The mummy successfully survived the operation. Lesson78 The last one? 最后一枝吗?After reading an article entitled Cigarette Smoking and Your Health I lit a cigarette to calm my nerves. I smoked with concentration and pleasure as I was sur
7、e that this would be my last cigarette. For a whole week I did not smoke at all and during this time, my wife suffered terribly. I had all the usual symptoms of someone giving up smoking: a bad temper and an enormous appetite. My friends kept on offering me cigarettes and cigars. They made no effort
8、 to hide their amusement whenever I produced a packet of sweets from my pocket. After seven days of this I went to a party. Everybody around me was smoking and I felt extremely uncomfortable. When my old friend Brian urged me to accept a cigarette, it was more than I could bear. I took one guiltily,
9、 lit it and smoked with satisfaction. My wife was delighted that things had returned to normal once more. Anyway, as Brian pointed out, it is the easiest thing in the world to give up smoking. He himself has done it lots of times! Lesson79 By air 乘飞机I used to travel by air a great deal when I was a
10、boy. My parents, used to live in South America and I used to fly there from Europe in the holidays. An airhostess would take charge of me and I never had an unpleasant experience. I am used to travelling by air and only on one occasion have I ever felt frightened. After taking off, we were flying lo
11、w over the city and slowly gaining height, when the plane suddenly turned round and flew back to the airport. While we were waiting to land, an air-hostess told us to keep calm and to get off the plane quietly as soon as it had touched down. Everybody on board was worried and we were curious to find
12、 out what had happened. Later we learnt that there was a very important person on board. The police had been told that a bomb had been planted on the plane. After we had landed, the plane was searched thoroughly. Fortunately, nothing was found and five hours later we were able to take off again.Less
13、on80 The Crystal Palace 水晶宫Perhaps the most extraordinary building of the nineteenth century was the Crystal Palace, which was built in Hyde Park for the Great Exhibition of 1851. The Crystal Palace was different from all other buildings in the world, for it was made of iron and glass. It was one of
14、 the biggest buildings of all time and a lot of people from many countries came to see it. A great many goods were sent to the exhibition from various parts of the world. There was also a great deal of machinery on display. The most wonderful piece of machinery on show was Nasmyths steam hammer. Tho
15、ugh in those days, travelling was not as easy as it is today, steam boats carried thousands of visitors across the Channel from Europe. On arriving in England, they were taken to the Crystal Palace by train. There were six million visitors in all, and the profits from the exhibition were used to bui
16、ld museums and colleges. Later, the Crystal Palace was moved to South London. It remained one of the most famous buildings in the world until it was burnt down in 1936.Lesson81 Escape 脱逃When he had killed the guard, the prisoner of war quickly dragged him into the bushes. Working rapidly in the dark
17、ness, he soon changed into the dead mans clothes. Now, dressed in a blue uniform and with a rifle over his shoulder, the prisoner marched boldly up and down in front of the camp. He could hear shouting in the camp itself. Lights were blazing and men were running here and there: they had just discove
18、red that a prisoner had escaped. At that moment, a large black car with four officers inside it, stopped at the camp gates. The officers got out and the prisoner stood to attention and saluted as they passed. When they had gone, the driver of the car came towards him. The man obviously wanted to tal
19、k. He was rather elderly with grey hair and clear blue eyes. The prisoner felt sorry for him, but there was nothing else he could do. As the man came near, the prisoner knocked him to the ground with a sharp blow. Then, jumping into the car, he drove off as quickly as he could. Lesson82 Monster or f
20、ish? 是妖还是鱼?Fishermen and sailors sometimes claim to have seen monsters in the sea. Though people have often laughed at stories told by seamen, it is now known that many of these monsters which have at times been sighted are simply strange fish. Occasionally, unusual creatures are washed to the shore
21、, but they are rarely caught out at sea. Some time ago, however, a peculiar fish was caught near Madagascar. A small fishing-boat was carried miles out to sea by the powerful fish as it pulled on the line. Realizing that this was no ordinary fish, the fisherman made every effort not to damage it in
22、any way. When it was eventually brought to shore, it was found to be over thirteen feet long. It had a head like a horse, big blue eyes, shining silver skin, and a bright red tail, The fish, which has since been sent to a museum where it is being examined by a scientist, is called an oarfish. Such c
23、reatures have rarely been seen alive by man as they live at a depth of six hundred feet.Lesson83 After the elections 大选之后The former Prime Minister, Mr Wentworth Lane, was defeated in the recent elections. He is now retiring from political life and has gone abroad. My friend, Crawley, has always been
24、 a fanatical opponent of Mr Lanes Radical Progressive Party. After the elections, Crawley went to the former Prime Ministers house. When he asked if Mr Lane lived there, the policeman on duty told him that since his defeat, the ex-Prime Minister had gone abroad. On the following day, Crawley went to
25、 the house again. The same policeman was just walking slowly past the entrance, when Crawley asked the same question. Though a little suspicious this time, the policeman gave him the same answer. The day after, Crawley went to the house once more and asked exactly the same question. This time, the p
26、oliceman lost his temper. I told you yesterday and the day before yesterday, he shouted, Mr Lane was defeated in the elections. He has retired from political life and gone to live abroad ! I know, answered Crawley, but I love to hear you say it ! Lesson84 On strike 罢工Busmen have decided to go on str
27、ike next week. The strike is due to begin on Tuesday. No one knows how long it will last. The busmen have stated that the strike will continue until general agreement is reached about pay and working conditions. Most people believe that the strike will last for at least a week. Many owners of privat
28、e cars are going to offer free rides to people on their way to work. This will relieve pressure on the trains to some extent. Meanwhile, a number of university students have volunteered to drive buses while the strike lasts. All the young men are expert drivers, but before they drive any of the buse
29、s, they will have to pass a special test. The students are going to take the test in two days time. Even so, people are going to find it difficult to get to work. But so far, the public has expressed its gratitude to the students in letters to the Press. Only one or two people have objected that the
30、 students will drive too fast!Lesson85 Never too old to learn 活到老学到老I have just received a letter from my old school informing me that my former head- master, Mr Regmald Page, will be retiring next week. Pupils of the school, old and new, will be sending him a present to mark the occasion. All those
31、 who have contributed towards the gift will sign their names in a large album which will be sent to the headmasters home. We shall all remember Mr Page for his patience and understanding and for the kindly encouragement he gave us when we went so unwillingly to school. A great many former pupils wil
32、l be attending a farewell dinner in his honour next Thursday. It is a curious coincidence that the day before his retirement, Mr Page will have been teaching for a total of forty years. After he has retired, he will devote himself to gardening. For him, this will be an entirely new hobby. But this d
33、oes not matter, for, as he has often remarked, one is never too old to learn. Lesson86 Out of control 失控As the man tried to swing the speed-boat round, the steering-wheel came away in his hands. He waved desperately to his companion, who had been water-skiing for the last fifteen minutes. Both men h
34、ad hardly had time to realize what was happening when they were thrown violent1y into the sea. The speed-boat had struck a buoy, but it continued to move very quickly across the water. Both men had just begun to swim towards the shore. when they noticed with dismay that the speed-boat was moving in
35、a circle. It now came straight towards them at tremendous speed. In less than a minute, it roared past them only a few feet away. After it had passed, they swam on as quickly as they could because they knew that the boat would soon return. They had just had enough time to swim out of danger when the
36、 boat again completed a circle. On this occasion, however, it had slowed down considerably. The petrol had nearly all been used up. Before long, the noise dropped completely and the boat began to drift gently across the water.Lesson87 A perfect alibi 极好的不在犯罪现场的证据At the time the murder was committed,
37、 I was travelling on the 8.0 oclock train to London, said the man.Do you always catch such an early train ? asked the inspector.Of course I do, answered the man. I must be at work at 10.0 oclock. My employer will confirm that I was there on time. Would a later train get you to work on time ? asked t
38、he inspector. I suppose it would, but I never catch a later train.At what time did you arrive at the station ?At ten to eight. I bought a paper and waited for the train.And you didnt notice anything unusual ? Of course not.I suggest, said the inspector, that you are not telling the truth. I suggest
39、that you did not catch the 8.0 oclock train, but that you caught the 8.25 which would still get you to work on time. You see, on the morning of the murder, the 8.0 oclock train did not run at all. It broke down at Ferngreen station and was taken off the line.Lesson88 Trapped in a mine 困在矿井里Six men h
40、ave been trapped in a mine for seventeen hours. If they are not brought to the surface soon they may lose their lives. However, rescue operations are proving difficult. If explosives are used, vibrations will cause the roof of the mine to collapse. Rescue workers are therefore drilling a hole on the
41、 north side of the mine. They intend to bring the men up in a special capsule. If there had not been a hard layer of rock beneath the soil, they would have completed the job in a few hours. As it is, they have been drilling for sixteen hours and they still have a long way to go. Meanwhile, a microph
42、one, which was lowered into the mine two hours ago, has enabled the men to keep in touch with the closest relatives. Though they are running out of food and drink, the men are cheerful and confident that they will get out soon. They have been told that rescue operations are progressing smoothly. If
43、they knew how difficult it was to drill through the hard rock, they would lose heart. Lesson89 A slip of the tongue 口误People will do anything to see a free show-even if it is a bad one. When the news got round that a variety show would be presented at our local cinema by the P. and U. Bird Seed Comp
44、any, we all rushed to see it. We had to queue for hours to get in and there must have been several hundred people present just be- fore the show began. Unfortunately, the show was one of the dullest we have ever seen. Those who failed to get in need not have felt disappointed as many of the artistes
45、 who should have appeared did not1 立项背景,必要性,国内外研究现状和发展趋势1.1立项背景 1.2项目研究开发的必要性1.2.1是农业产业结构调整和增加农民收入的迫切需要XX是一个位于湘中,靠近湘西的农业地区,多年来农业以粮食种植业为主。XX市人均粮食为300公斤,比湖南平均水平高12.8%,但是农民增产不增收现象突出,农民人均收入为800元,反而比湖南人均水平低12.5%。实际上,XX的大豆种植有悠久的历史和传统,总产和单产都位于湖南前列。但是由于大豆加工业不发达,大多数大豆是作为原料销往外地,不但影响了农民收入的增加和种植积极性,也使农业产业结构调整遇到
46、了一定困难。本项目建成后,XXXX堂高科持农业有限公司年消耗大豆达万吨以上,对增加农民收入和推动产业结构调整和优化有重要意义。1.2.2是我国农业应对WTO挑战的迫切需要近年来,我国大豆年产量在1400吨左右,而进口大豆已超过1500吨。我国大豆无论是在生产成本、生产规模和流通体系的建设上都处于劣势,如果不马上采取措施,我国国产大豆的卖难现象将进一步加剧,国内市场面临进一步被国外大豆瓜分的危险。但是由于我国大豆的蛋白质和大豆异黄酮等生理活性物质的成分含量高,基本没有转基因品种,因而我们应扬长避短,大力发展国产大豆的比较优势,推进大豆发酵食品的开发和生产,将我国的传统特色产品推向国际市场。1.2
47、.3是提高我国食品加工业发展水平的需求中国是大豆的故乡,大豆加工技术也大多起源于中国。但是几千年后我国大豆加工业特别是大豆发酵食品加工业仍处于生产水平低下,卫生条件差、产业化水平低的境地。由于规模经济和技术经济效益差,对发酵制品的功能性研究没有足够重视,而且大多数产品含盐量高,主要作为调味料或佐餐用,消费量连年徘徊不前。而与此同时,日本、美国等西方发达国家却加大了对大豆发酵制品的科研和开发力度,使它们的功能性做到了家喻户晓,极大地促进了大豆发酵食品的产业化、规模化。湖南XXXX堂高科技农业有限公司虽然在此领域奋斗多年,但仍深切的感受到公司产品品牌的单一性,产业化、自动化生产水平低,规模经济和技
48、术经济水平不高制约了公司的发展。因此,我们迫切需要通过本项目的实施,使公司的生产和技术水平得到实质性的提高,为公司的发展奠定较为坚实的基础,同时,项目的实施对我国众多豆制品加工企业将有很好的示范作用,有望促进我国大豆食品加工业的发展和总体技术水平的提高。1.2.4是全面提高人民生活水平,增进人民健康水平的需要随着经济的发展和人民生活水平的提高,消费者越来越注重生活质量的提高,对食品的需求已经从解决温饱进入到了有益健康、口感新颖的新阶段。但是我国原有食品受历史条件限制,在有益健康这个方面考虑不够。以传统大豆发酵制品为例,存在含盐量高,对健康影响不清等问题。更有甚者,由于生产过程得不到严格控制,黄
49、曲霉毒素超标等有害人体健康的事也不少见。通过发展大豆深加工技术和新产品的开发及副产物的综合利用,趋利避害,生产新型的健康食品、风味特色食品,对改善人们生活质量,提高健康水平有着非常重要的意义。1.3国内外研究现状与发展趋势1.3.1国内研究现状我国是大豆和大豆发酵制品的故乡,生产历史长达数千年,以豆鼓、腐乳为代表的大豆发酵制品深受人们喜爱。但是我国的大豆发酵制品无论是生产工艺还是在产品种类上基本上沿袭了祖传下来的东西,开发创新严重不够,利用现代技术手段对生产的改进和功能性成分的研究更是空白,导致我国大豆发酵制品仍处于生产水平低,卫生条件差,规模小,产业化水平低的局面,使得我国相关产业的发展非常缓慢。传统大豆制品腐乳需求量很大,国内虽有厂家生产,但具有保健作用,利用现代快速生产工艺生产且安全性高的腐乳制品几乎没有,我国大豆制品(如酱油)因致癌物含量(主要是氯苯醇和黄曲霉素B等致癌物)超标而被国外退货的现象时有发生。国内目前生产腐乳的厂家大多没有综合利用副产物,豆渣作饲料,
