While rose flowers remain symbolically cherished on Valentine's Day, their fate afterward poses both ecological and practical challenges-a problem food scientist Anand Mohan addresses through innovative sound-wave applications. His research at the University of Georgia explores how ultrasound technology,traditionally used to extend shelf life in processed foods, could transform post-holiday flowers into useful resources rather than landfill waste.
Fresh flowers, composed largely of water, face rapid decay under conventional storage methods. Traditional drying techniques, such as warm-air dehydration, often degrade their vivid shades and delicate structures over extended periods. Ultrasound, however, accelerates this process by generating heat through high-frequency vibrations, efficiently removing moisture while preserving color intensity and nutritional content. Furthermore, this technique also enables the extraction of hidden compounds-proteins, vitamins, and antioxidants-that flowers naturally contain.
When Mohan began his research, the original goal was to find new ways to extend theshelr life of beef.His lab found that roses contain an antioxidant that could keep beef fresh for longer, which then redirected his focus toward wider applications. Eanable varieties like broccoli flowers, rich in protein, could enhance plant-based foods,while hibiscus(芙蓉花)extracts might replace artificial additives in biodegradable packaging. Such innovations challenge the perception of flowers as temporary decoration, repositioning them as multi-functional ingredients.Seasonal blooms. if processed using sound waves,could supply year-round materials-natural food colorants,preservatives, or nutrient boosters-for diverse industries.
Although the discovery of this technique is encouraging, realizing its full potential remains difficult due to prohibitive ultrasonic equipment costs and rooted public perceptions undervaluing flowers beyond pure decorations.One possible solution is industry partnerships to share financial burdens. Pioneering firms must first invest to drive a broader adoption of the technique. Only when physical products are right before people's eyes will they recognize blooms as sustainable resources rather than short-lived beauty. As Mohan concludes,“Every petal(花瓣)holds potential-we're merely unlocking stories that continue long after Valentine's Day."
16.What is an advantage of ultrasonic flower processing?
A Preventing water loss. B.Reducing production cost.
C.Enhancing natural fragrance. D.Keeping beneficial elements.
17.Why are broccoli flowers and hibiscus mentioned in paragraph 3?
A.To demonstrate broader uses of flowers.
B.To emphasize their high protein content.

18.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A.Physical products will enter the market soon.
B.Public awareness still requires transformation.
C.Local governments will fund pioneering firms.
D.Ultrasound drying technique has been widely applied.
19.What is a suitable title for the tcxt7

How to Travel in Time
The term "NOSTALGIA" (怀旧) used to describe a mental disease.The "algia" bit means "pain", and the word was coined by a 17th-century doctor treating homesick soldiers, whose symptoms included hallucinations(幻觉)and depression.A And it's a great example of the benefits of a strong memory-choosing to recapture moments from the past to enjoy them all over again.
As evidence, a recent report highlighted the increase in old songs being streamed on Spotify during lockdown.It seems that we found strength in musical memories of happier times.21_That's because memory skills can take you into the future,too-bringing a whole new set of rewards.
In another pandemic experiment, people wrote letters to their future selves, and found that they improved their mood by imagining themselves safely on the other side of COVID-19.22
*To reawaken happy feelings, use all your senses not just sight. Smell, taste, touch and sound will also help you to recreate the past in rich clarity. If you find a memory that's particularly helpful-for reassurance,say-keep using it! 23
*When you're procrastinating(拖延),visualize an end result. Flash forward to see the floor swept or the essay finished,and use that positive image to make you swing into action.
*Ahead of major challenges, imagine the full impact of success. Don't just picture yourself getting that great job:fill your mind with the really big ways it's going to change your life.
24 But the more you learn to control your memory, the better you'll be at mining your past, and shaping your future, to be your best self now.
A The usefulness of nostalgia seems to vary with age.
B.Today we have a much more positive attitude to nostalgia.
C.Here are my tips for becoming a confident time traveller yourself.
D.The following tricks help connect with your past and future selves.
E. You'll get faster at finding it, and add extra layers of detail each time.
F.But there's also a growing body of research into time travel "the other way".
G.There'll still be times when old thoughts cause sadness, or you're anxious about what's next.
