What do you want to be when you grow up? A teacher? A doctor? How about an ice-cream taster?

Yes, there really is a job where you can get paid to taste ice cream. Just ask John Harrison, an “Official Taste Tester” for the past 21 years. Testing helps producers to be sure of a product’s quality. During his career Harrison has been responsible for approving large quantities of the sweet ice cream –as well as for developing over 75 flavors (味道).

Some people think that it would be easy to do this job; after all, you just have to like ice cream, right? No –-- there’s 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 useful to someone wanting a career in this “cool” field.

In a typical morning on the job, Harrison tastes and rates 60 ice-cream samples. He lets the ice cream warm up to about 12 F. Harrisonexplains, “You get more flavor from warmer ice cream, which is why some kids like to stir it, creating ice-cream soup.”

While the ice cream warms up, Harrison looks 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 colour expected from that flavor?”Next it’s time to taste!

Continuing to think up new ideas, try out new flavors, and test samples from so many kinds of ice cream each day keeps Harrison busy but happy – working at once cool job.

1.What is John Harrison’s job?

A.An official.                            B.An ice-cream taster.

2.According to John Harrison, to be qualified(有资格的) in the “cool field”, it is helpful to        .

A.keep a diary of work                     B.have a degree in related subjects

Diets aren’t the way to go when it comes to losing weight. That’s because they create temporary eating patterns—and, therefore, temporary results. So what’s the best way to drop excess weight? Create a new normal! Weight loss is most likely to be successful when people change their habits, replacing old, unhealthy ones with new, healthy behaviors. Here are five ways to make that happen.

Take exercise.   1.   . Walking the family dog, cycling to school, and doing other things that increase your daily level of activity can all help you look and feel good and keep weight off.

   2.   One reason people get less exercise these days is that they spend too much time watching TV, looking at the computer, or playing video games. Limit recreational screen time to less than 2 hours per day.

Watch out for unhealthy drinks. Another key factor in weight gain is that more people drink sugary drinks, such as sodas, juice drinks, and sports drinks.   3.    

Eat some fruits and vegetables every day. Fruits and vegetables are about more than just vitamins and minerals.   4.    And when you fill up on friuts and vegetables, you’re less likely to overeat when it comes to high-calorie foods like chips or cookies.

  5.   People who don’t have breakfast often feel so hungry that they eat more later on. So they are likely to get more calories.

A. Regular physical activity burns calories and builds muscles.

B. So go for water or low-fat milk instead of soda.

C. They’ve also packed with fiber, which means they fill you up.

D. Don’t skip breakfast.

E. Share your breakfast with others.

F. It is bad for your eyes to spend too much time watching TV.

G. Reduce screen time.
