18．It's not often a tomato is described as so sweet‘whenever people see it they just want to hug it'-but this was no ordinary （普通的） piece of fruit．
The heart-shaped（心形） tomato was grown by the retired worker，Rod Matless，who said he was surprised when he noticed it in his field．Mr Matless，69，who had a heart attack（心脏病） a few years ago，was so taken aback by the fruit that he decided to sell it and donate（捐赠） the money to the British Heart Foundation．The 64g tomato was bought for￡16on eBay by a woman from Wales-who said she planned to give it to someone special．

19．Do you love hamburgers？Do you how they were created？
The first hamburgers in U．S．history were served in New Haven，Connecticut，at Louis'Lunch sandwich shop in 1895．Louis Lassen，founder of Louis'Lunch，ran a small lunch wagon selling steak sandwiches to local factory workers．Because he didn't like to waste the excess beef from his daily lunch rush，he ground it up，grilled it，and served it between two slice of bread-and thus America's first hamburger was created．
The small Crown Street restaurant is still owned and operated by the third and fourth generations of the Lassen family．Hamburgers are still the specialty of the house，where steak is ground fresh each day and hand molded，slow cooked，broiled vertically，and served between two slices of toast with your choice of only three"acceptable"garnishes：cheese，tomato，and onion．
Want ketchup or mustard？Forget it．You will be told"no"in no uncertain terms．This is the home of the greatest hamburger in the world，claim the owners，who are perhaps best known for allowing their customers to have a burger the Lassen way or not at all．

19．By analyzing academic data from 10states，representing the testing of more than 7.2millions of youths，U．S．researchers found that gender differences in math scores were extremely small among all ethnic groups in grades 2-11．
These findings are in contrast to earlier results from 1990that indicate measurable differences favoring males in complex problem-solving，beginning in the high school years．
Janet Hyde from University of Wisconsin and colleagues reported their study results in the journal Science on Friday．
Currently，women are largely absent from the highest levels of careers in mathematics，the physical sciences，and engineering．In the United States，Ph．D．programs in engineering currently average only about 15percent women，and similar statistics have led to stereotypes （成见）about girls and women lacking in mathematical ability．
Now，it is clear that the general population no longer shows a gender difference in mathematical skills，according to this latest report．
And this new data on academic performance in the United States shows that students are tested frequently on"recall"and"skill/concept"items，but rarely on"strategic thinking"（战略思维） or"extended thinking"concepts．
If standardized tests do not assess （评估）the sorts of reasoning that are   crucialto careers in science and math，then the skills may not be taught，putting American students at a disadvantage to students in other countries where testing and instruction focuses on more challenging content．"This is a gap that should be fixed，"Hyde said．
