33、are, but its not been clear exactly when this concept starts to develop.     Dr. Alva Zhao and her colleagues conducted a series of tests to measure just how much children care about equality at different ages, In three different versions of a game, children were asked to choose betwe

42、m Turkey.In the 1700s in Turkey，it was quite popular for people in love to send each other baskets full of strange things.The baskets were delivered secretly to the person who was receiving it.Usually，an old woman who sold flowers or fruit on the street left the basket beside the persons door.These

43、baskets included a variety of “gifts”:flowers，stones，feathers，wax，and even charcoal.Each thing in the basket had a special meaning.By figuring out the secret message contained in each item，the person who received the basket began to understand little by little the true feeling of the person who sent

44、 it.This idea of sending gifts of love with secret meanings quickly spread to Germany，France，and England.However，as time passed，only sending flowers remained popular.An innocent bunch of flowers told young ladies about the feeling in the hearts of young men.Each different flower held a different mea

45、ning.For example，the flowers from an orange tree meant，“You are beautiful and pure.” Pink carnations meant，“My love for you is strong and great.” Yellow roses，on the other hand，meant，“I saw you with someone else.”Many flower dictionaries were made to help young people in love understand the meaning

46、of the flowers they received.Not all of the dictionaries agreed，however，on the meaning of each flower，so a person had to be careful about the flowers they chose to send.By the 1880s，using flowers to send messages had fallen out of fashion，and the more direct way of sending love letters began.Today，f

50、s, say UK researchers.Their study found that theobromine, （可可碱）found in cocoa, was nearly a third more effective in stopping coughs than codeine, which was considered the best cough medicine at present.The Imperial College London researchers who published their results online said the discovery coul

51、d lead to more effective cough treatment. “While coughing is not necessarily harmful it can have a major effect on the quality of life, and this discovery could be a huge step forward in treating this problem,” said Professor Peter Barnes.Ten healthy volunteers were given theobromine, codeine(可待因)or

52、 placebo(安慰剂), a pill that contains no medicine, during the experiment. Neither the volunteers nor the researchers knew who received which pill. The researchers then measured levels of capsaicin, which is used in research to cause coughing and as a sign of how well the medicine are stopping coughs.T

53、he team found that, when the volunteers were given theobromine, the capsaicin need to produce a cough was around a third higher than in the placebo group. When they were given codeine they need only slightly higher levers of capsaicin（辣椒素） to cause a cough compared with the placebo.The researchers s

54、aid that theobromine worked by keeping down a verve activity(神经活动), which cause coughing. They also found that unlike some standard cough treatments, theobromine caused no side effects such as sleepiness.68.

What was used in the experiment to cause coughing? A. Theobromine. B. Codeine. C. Capsaicin. D. Placebo.70. We learn from the text that volu
