This might be true. However, we know that people also yawn when they are excited or nervous. Olympic runners , for example, often yawn before a race.

七年级英语阅读材料（2）七年级英语阅读材料我们喜欢那些从小吃到大的食物，但也会去尝试那些从未尝过的食物。

大型电视纪录片《舌尖上的中国》播出令国人自豪的传统美食。

在这纪录片的所有主题中，食物不是最主要的主题。

只有很少的故事片是以食物为主要题材，例如李安的《饮食男女》，影片中的食物可算锦上添花，然而最主要的还是人物剧情本身。

这就是为何《舌尖上的中国》在2012年开播以来反响巨大的一个原因。

没有过多地推广宣传，但《舌尖上的中国》这个系列却拥有一大批粉丝，比最大型的戏剧或喜剧演出还受欢迎。

纪录片在描述食物取材时，巧妙地融入人们的故事。

在这种情况下，观众就把人们的故事当作开胃菜，把对食物的详细介绍当作主菜。

当然，当影片过多地刻画人物而不是介绍美食时，也会引起观众的抱怨。

但这丝毫不影响《舌尖上的中国》在中国的成功，还激起人们对食物的狂热。

在纪录片播出后不久，片中出现的食材，其销量就直线飙升。

在第一季中，一种西藏森林中的稀有蘑菇被运到沿海城市的一所高级餐厅中。

由于这些稀有的菌类食物取材困难，所以餐厅菜单上的菌类价格就高的惊人。

制片人在强调这种独特的美味时，不单考虑食材的美妙口感，而且还考虑到采集者的生活。

纪录片仍出现始料未及的结果：那就是太多的有钱人开始注意它，需求涌动，导致当地脆弱的生态系统面临威胁。

在刚刚结束的第二季中，纪录片把食材的重心放在那些人人可得的食材上。

不再以稀有美食来吸引观众，所以观众的烹饪激情或许有些减退。

对于很多人来说，在博大精深的中国烹饪背后，好奇仍然是主要的驱动力。

为了更加健康，体验更美味的食物，人们就会去寻找那些稀有的动植物。

但是我却很怀疑这个。

我曾被劝说去尝试一些稀有美食，但事实是，它们常常没有宣传中所描述的那般美味。

有一次在海南，我以10倍于普通价的价格买了条鱼，之后发现还没有普通价的鱼一半好吃。

要提升对食物价值的认知是有难度的。

只有一些人能吃得起，这种想法是导致一些物种濒临灭绝的原因之一。

If you are running for class president, you will need to write a speech to present to the student body. There will probably be several candidates, so you will want your speech to be unique and different. How do you figure out what to say in a class president speech? How should you organize it? How long should it be? Some of these questions will be answered by your principa l or the student council sponsor, but there are some general tips that will also help you to write your class president speech.Instructions1 Thanks your audienceStart with a thank you. You will want to thank the student body, the principal, the faculty, your fellow candidates and any other guests who may be present before you begin your actual speech. Thank them for allowing you to share your views and for having the election.2 Make your speech interesting and impressive Tell a joke or story or present a quote to introduce your speech. You want to catch people's attention and show that your speech is not going to just be another boring, regular speech. Try to pick astory or quote that captures the spirit of your campaign (see the Resources section).3 Tell your audience why you are the best oneState your activities throughout the speech. You do not want tobore students with a long list of all your accomplishments and activities, but you do want to work them into your speech. For example, if you have played varsity basketball for three years, you could say something like, "Since I have played basketball during high school, I know how to work as a team. I want to put a team of students together to work on a recycling program in our school cafeteria." Just make sure to be yourself and be honest during your class president speech, and you won't go wrong.4 Tell your audience what you can do for the class if you are the class presidentWhat are the changes that your fellow classmates want to see in your school? The body of your class president speech should focus on these issues. For example, do students want juice machines available in between classes? Are students interested in organizing an after-schoolbasketball club? Whatever the issues are that students are focused on should be presented in your speech for class president.。
