26、ions. The longer that packaged food is stored, the more it loses nutrients like vitamin C and vitamin K.Astronauts have successfully grown 10 different crops on the space station since 2015 and had the chance to sample each one. The International Space Station hosted a party for astronauts on Friday

27、 as they celebrated the harvest of the first Chili (辣椒) grown in space. The crew finally had a chance to taste the peppers after initially kicking off the plant experiment on the space station in July. Plant Habitat-04 is one of the most complex plant experiments on the orbiting laboratory to date b

28、ecause peppers take much longer to grow than the previous experiment plants. After growing for four months, the peppers were harvested on Friday.Peppers provide a great source of vitamin C, as well as other key nutrients. Pepper plants self-pollinate, so they are easy to grow, and they are a pick-an

29、d-eat crop that doesnt have to be cooked. They are also safe to eat raw.A side effect of life in zero gravity is that astronauts often lose some of their taste and smell, so spicy or well-seasoned foods are a favorite.

The First Chili Peppers Grown in SpaceD. A Research Finding from the Space MissionDWhen answering a question, your silence might

34、 say more than your words. A new psychology study has found pausing before replying, even for just a few seconds, can make you seem more insincere or dishonest. That perception (感知) of dishonesty might not be too inaccurate, either. Numerous studies suggest people are slower to respond when they are

35、 not being truthful, possibly because it takes more mental work to block a truthful response or fabricate (编造) an alternative.Whats been less clear is how well our lies have been fooling people. Some studies suggest delayed answers come across as insincere to the listener. Others find no relationshi

36、p between the two, and still more have found the opposite: A bit of hesitation increases our perception of sincerity. These findings are inconsistent and confusing. They are also mostly based on correlations. Even the few studies that have actually looked at causal relationships often didnt consider

37、 confusing factors that could also give away a liar or an insincere speaker.The new research seeks to improve some of those limitations by examining thousands of people under a variety of conditions. Together, it involves more than 7, 500 individuals in a total of 14 experiments. On the whole, the a

38、uthors found an immediate response was perceived as more sincere, while a delayed response, even a delay as brief as two seconds, was seen as more insincere. “Evaluating other peoples sincerity is an important part of social interactions.” says consumer behaviour researcher Ignazio Ziano.“It would b

39、e unfair for the responder, such as a crime suspect, if the response delay was misattributed to (错误地归因于) thought suppression (抑制) or answer fabrication when it was in fact caused by a different factor, such as simply being distracted or thoughtful.” explains Ziano.32.

45、a heart condition or kidney stones has one level of need. A person taking diurelie drugs (利尿药) may need a different amount of water.

46、pular idea is that caffeine or alcohol will make your body lose much water. But one study showed the effect is not significant. You also get water from what you eat. Fruits, vegetables, and soups all add to the intake of water. Your body will tell you if you are hydrated enough. You dont have to thi

47、nk about it or add up the ounces you drink. 39 Electrolytes are essential minerals. 40 Some sports drinks ads say you need to add electrolytes to stay healthy.
