52、Yishu will feel nervous if the questions are hard.F18、 Humans are the only animals to eat chilies, even though they sometimes cause us discomfort.CFPMany of us have had this experience: We eat something very spicy, our mouth burns, then our nose gets runny and our eyes start to water. So why exactly

53、 does this happen?All spicy foods come from plants, and according to BBC News, these plants contain spicy items to keep animals from eating them. Eating or even just touching these plants leads to the familiar burning feeling that comes from spicy food.When we are eating the spicy food, our nose and

54、 eyes may also feel irritated(痒痒的)and go into defense mode(模式),producing tears or mucus(黏液)to protect themselves. The more irritated our nose and eyes feel, the more tears or mucus they produce. That explains the tearing eyes, running nose and burning mouth that come from eating spicy food.So if we

55、know that our body will react to chilies this way, why is it that humans are the only animals to eat them? In fact, about 600 million Chinese, almost half of the national population, are chili eaters, reported website Huanqiu.According to BBC News, the human body responds to spicy food by giving off

56、 endorphins(内啡肷)-chemicals that create a sense of happiness.So if youre a big fan of spicy food, what can you do to reduce these symptoms(症状)?Its widely believed that a glass of ice water is the perfect way to lighten the burning sense caused by spiciness. However, as Live Science reported, its been

57、 proved that water will just make you feel worse by spreading the spicy items around your mouth.*Live Science suggested that the easiest way to put out the fire in your mouth is with dairy products, such as milk or yogurt. Dairy contains a special element named casein(酪蛋白),a type of protein which is

58、 able to dissolve the spicy component in chilies and reduce your pain immediately.Equally effective is a spoon of sugar, according to Live Science.So, if youre the kind of person who holds the belief the spicier, the better, make sure to keep some dairy products in your refrigerator.1A lot of animal
