Well, you should thank your taste buds (味蕾) for letting you enjoy the saltiness and the sweetness. Taste buds are sensory organs（感觉器官）that are found on your tongue and allow you to experience tastes that are sweet, salty, sour and bitter. The average person has about 10,000 taste buds and theyre replaced（替换） every 2 weeks or so. But as a person grows older, some of those taste buds dont get replaced. An older person may only have 5,000 working taste buds. Thats why certain foods may have a stronger taste for children than they do for adults. Smoking can also reduce the number of taste buds a person has. But before you give taste buds all the thanks for your favorite flavors (滋味), its important to thank your nose too. The upper part of your nose can receive the chemicals that make your brain create the sensation (感觉) of flavor. So when you have a cold, and your nose is stuffy, you might notice that your food doesnt seem to have much flavor. If you hold your nose while eating, your taste buds are able to tell your brain something about what youre eating that its sweet, for instance but you wont be able to pick out the exact flavor until you let go of your nose. So the next time you enjoy an apple or some soup, thank your tongue and your nose! Without them, life wouldnt have any flavors.根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。( ) 1. How many working taste buds may an old man have?A. 10,000. B. 5,000. C. 2,000. D. 8,000.( ) 2. What does the underlined word “ reduce” mean in Chinese?A. 减少 B. 增加 C. 改变 D. 失去( ) 3. What can we learn from the passage?A. The same food has a stronger taste for children than for adults.B. Adults can enjoy some foods more easily.C. A person cant smell things that are sweet, salty, sour, and bitter.D. Peoples taste buds will not work when they hold their noses.( ) 4. What will happen if you catch a bad cold and your nose is stuffy?A. You cant taste anything at all.B. Things will taste the same.C. You wont be able to tell the exact flavor.D. Your brain will create a stronger flavor.( ) 5. What does the second paragraph mainly tell us?A. How to enjoy delicious food.B. What are taste buds.C. How do taste buds work.D. We should thank our noses.V. 综合填空 阅读短文，根据短文内容和首字母提示完成单词，使短文意思完整、通顺。There is a photograph on my desk. When I see it, it always r_(1)me of the concert which was held in our city two years ago.
