(C) Have you ever been burned by a pie from KFC or MeDonald's?Many people on social media say that when the pie crust()feels cool enough to eat,the filling inside is still "as hot as lava(岩浆)”. To find out how hot the filling can be,a team in China did a test.They found that the average (temperature of the filling can reach 64 C when the pies are taken out of the oven. According to China Science Communication,the suggested temperature for food is around 10 C to 40 C,and food that is over 60 C can hurt our throat. The reason for this is that the filling is thick and not ex posed (to air.Once heated,it keeps heat for a long time.The test shows that after a pie from KFC has been out of the oven for 10 minutes,the temperature inside still reaches 45.1 C. The temperature difference can be explained using a physics concept (called specific heat capacity ()This tells us how much heatis needed to change the temperature of 1 gram of something by 1 C.Something with a low specific heat capacity is like a small cup;it doesn't hold much heat and cools down fast.Things with a high speeific heat capacity take longer to cool down.

Here we are talking about“relative(相对的)age”,which is an important factor to decide how successful someone will become,according to Hamilton.38It suggests those born near the beginning of the school year in Sepfember-and so are older compared to their classmates-are more likely to be successful.
