共用题干 Garlic

From early times man has used garlic(大蒜).The Bible speaks of it. The Israelites
(古以色列人)were once far from home. They cried out to Moses, their leader, for the
foods they loved: leeks(韭菜),onions, and garlic. The Romans, like the Israelites,
loved to eat garlic.And they hung bags of garlic around their necks._______(1)They
also thought it would keep them from getting sick.
A similar idea is still held:Many people take garlic thinking it will prevent or cure
disease .Most doctors say it does no such thing.________(2)Its smell may force
people to stay far apart.At least then they can"t pass germs on to each other.
_______(3)What if you"re in a play,for instance?Actors have been known to
forget their lines because they couldn"t stand the garlic smell on a fellow actor"s breath.
Some have even made up new lines and actions that kept them far away from the one who
had eaten garlic.
Through the years man has tried to cope with the smell of garlic._______(4)We
now know why.It"s been found that the oils of the garlic do not stick to the teeth,tongue,
or gums(齿龈).They go into the lungs instead.From there they are breathed out.They
pass out through the skin too.
Strange as it seems,food may have a great deal of garlic in it without smelling or
tasting strong.It all depends on how it is cooked.French cooks make a good soup with
whole cloves(瓣)of garlic.They use more than thirty cloves in one bowl of soup.But
they take care not to crush them .And they cook them whole.________(5)And as the
cloves cook they change in some strange way.The soup turns out to be delicious.It"s not
strong at all. _________(2)
