10、pped me from feeling sleepy, and made the long flight from the US go by much faster.When we arrived in Chennai, I learned that my bags had somehow not made the trip with the plane. As I filled out the missing baggage forms, I couldnt help noticing the mountain of unclaimed baggage in a corner of the

11、 airport. It was Saturday morning. The officials had told me there was no point in checking to see if my bags had arrived until Monday. As I stood there, wondering what to do next, Uma came over. Learning of my situation, she said, “My driver will soon be here to pick me up. Come home with me!”We we

12、nt out and saw a crowd of people waiting for their loved ones. Within minutes, Uma said, “Theres our car!” We piled into the small car, already crowded with family members who had come to welcome Uma home.At the house, Umas family fed me with delicious Indian food and took me on tours of their city.

13、 On Monday morning, their driver took me to the airport, where I was happy to find my bags.The following year, I returned to India, and my first stop was to visit Uma and her family. What a gift here kindness was! In my very first moment on Indian soil, I learned an important lesson about the soul o

17、n. I had never really paid much attention to it until I became a baby-food tester. Now, my tongue-or rather, its ability to determine tiny changes in flavor -is the primary tool of my job. The company I work for believes Im so valuable in terms of getting the balance of tastes in baby food just righ

18、t that its worth getting insured.Im what you call a “supertaster” -one of a small percentage of the population born with twice as many taste buds(味蕾) as the rest.

19、at the height of my tasting power.At first, baby food tasted strange to me-it took a while to get used to eating a meal that had been reduced to a paste(糨糊).

20、in.

38、 featuring mostly black-and-white patterns. Also, they are mostly quite large. But one species was only 5mm long, which is actually quite small for a bee.
