Mayor’s aide bites cop over Lisbon traffic dispute
市長助理為了里斯本交通爭議咬警察
A top municipal official in Lisbon’s Oeiras suburb sank his teeth into a traffic police officer during a discussion over a fine, apparently enraged by the familiar form used by the officer to address him.
里斯本郊區歐里亞斯市的一名市府高官，在一場針對罰金的討論中以其金剛牙對一名交通警察發動攻擊，動怒原因顯然是該員警沒有用敬語稱呼他。
Police said Esequiel Lino, an aide to the mayor of Oeiras, had come to the police station to protest his daughter’s car being towed away by police.
警方表示，歐里亞斯市長助理里諾前往警察局，抗議警方拖吊他女兒的車子。
"He started verbally abusing the officers, kicking the desk and was warned several times, but it didn’t stop him. He went on and ended up biting one of the officers in the arm, and had to be detained," a police spokeswoman said.
「他開始怒罵警察，踢辦公桌，並數度遭到警告，但他依然故我，最後咬了其中一名員警的手臂，（警方）不得不拘留他，」警方一名女發言人說。
The officer had to be treated in a hospital.
該員警必須送醫治療。
The Diario de Noticias daily quoted a police source as saying the official had become infuriated when a young policeman, telling him to stop shouting, addressed the 64-year-old using the familiar form of "you," without the honorific "sir."
「每日新聞報」引述一名警方消息人士的話說，當一名年輕員警以普通的「你」而非帶有敬意的「先生」來稱呼這位64歲的官員並且告訴他不要吼叫時，這名官員就發飆了。

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows 哈利波特 死神的聖物1

The long-feared war has begun, and Voldemort’s Death Eaters take control of the Ministry of Magic and even Hogwarts, 1)terrorizing and arresting anyone who dares to 2)oppose them. But the one prize they still seek is the one most valuable to Voldemort: Harry Potter. As the Death Eaters search for Harry with orders to bring him to Voldemort, the “Chosen One” has become the “Hunted One.” Harry’s only hope is to find the Horcruxes before Voldemort finds him. But as he searches for clues, he uncovers an old and almost forgotten tale—the legend of the Deathly Hallows. And if the legend turns out to be true, it could give Voldemort the ultimate power he seeks. （節錄自 EZ Talk 美語會話誌，完整內容請見 11 月號）

Background noise affects taste of foods 背景聲音影響食物味道

 ◎國際新聞中心

The level of background noise affects both the intensity of flavour and the perceived crunchiness of foods, researchers have found. Blindfolded diners assessed the sweetness, saltiness, and crunchiness, as well as overall flavour, of foods as they were played white noise. While louder noise reduced the reported sweetness or saltiness, it increased the measure of crunch.
研究人員發現，背景聲音的大小影響食物的味道強度以及口感。蒙住眼睛的飲食者評估食物甜味、鹹味、脆度與整體味道，一邊聽著白噪音（指空間內所有噪音的總合）。噪音較吵時，說食物鹹或甜的人較少，說東西脆的人較多。
It may go some way to explaining why airline food is notoriously bland - a phenomenon that drives airline catering companies to heavily season their foods.
這可能解釋飛機餐為何總是惡名昭彰地淡而無味，讓空廚公司大量增加食物調味。
"There’s a general opinion that aeroplane foods aren’t fantastic," said Andy Woods, a researcher from Unilever’s laboratories and the University of Manchester."I’m sure airlines do their best - and given that, we wondered if there are other reasons why the food would not be so good. One thought was perhaps the background noise has some impact," he told BBC News.
聯合利華實驗室與曼徹斯特大學的研究員伍德說，「飛機餐總是被認為不好吃」，他告訴英國廣播公司新聞網，「我確信航空公司盡力了，考量到那點，我猜想，是否有其他影響食物不是這麼好吃的原因。一個想法是，或許背景聲音有一些影響」。
In a comparatively small study, 48 participants were fed sweet foods such as biscuits or salty ones such as crisps, while listening to silence or noise through headphones. In noisier settings, foods were rated less salty or sweet than they were in the absence of background noise, but were rated to be more crunchy.
在一份比較來說較小型的研究中，48名參與者吃餅乾等甜食或洋芋片等鹹點，一邊透過耳機聽安靜或是嘈雜的聲音。在較嘈雜的環境中，食物比在沒有背景噪音的環境中，較少被評等為較鹹或甜，但是被評為比較脆。
