When it comes to Instagramming(图片分享)your dinner, I say live and let live, you know? Maybe your salad was particularly aesthetically pleasing that night, and I, too, have wiled away many an hour clicking "random" on Smitten Kitchen and salivating(流口水). But I assume if you’re making the effort to arrange your food artfully and preserve its memory in a digital archive, you must... like food. And want it to taste good. A recent study published in the Journal of Consumer Psychology suggests that spending time focusing on images of food makes the food itself less satisfying.
The researchers hypothesized that imagining enjoying something might lead to satiation—the feeling that makes the second piece of cake taste not-quite-as-good as the first. To test this, they had undergraduates participate in two experiments that they were told were separate—one in which they rated how appetizing different photos of food looked, and one in which they ate some peanuts and rated how much they enjoyed them.
A separate group of people did the same experiment again, but in the photo-rating portion, some were asked to rate how appetizing the food was or to choose a preference between two foods, and some were asked to rate the brightness of the photo itself.
The more photos of food people looked at, the less they enjoyed the peanuts—if they were looking at photos of salty food. People who knew every inch of the images of sweets enjoyed the peanuts more, suggesting that imagination causes satiation only if you’re imagining a similar food. In the second experiment, participants who focused on the brightness of the photos were able to enjoy the peanuts more than those who were thinking about the deliciousness of foods while they looked at the images.
What may be the implications of the study? You’ll probably enjoy your food more if you don’t take a picture of it, or scroll through images of burritos at work and then eat one when you get home. This study may also have potential implications for advertisers, who may unknowingly be giving away satiation for free when they dangle(垂悬)fascinating images of chicken wings or whatever in front of us all day long. But luckily the study provides a loophole for determined Instagrammers: Try not to think about the food’s taste while you take a photo—just focus on your composition.
What can we learn from the study according to the last paragraph?
选项
A、People should have their dinner without imagining how appetizing the food is.
B、Advertisers should make products promoted in the ads less attractive.
C、People will enjoy the food whose image has ever stimulated their appetite on the Internet.
D、Instagrammers should give up shooting food pictures in order to eat to their hearts’ content.
答案
A
解析
细节归纳题。本段第二至四句分别从大众、广告商和拍客的角度介绍此研究对他们的意义:如果你不拍照或者不提前浏览美食(设想它有多美味)的话你就可能更享受食物的美味;广告商的美食广告能免费地喂饱我们;拍客在拍摄时应只关注拍摄的内容。纵观全文,再结合本段的细节描述,可以推断:由于想象食物的美味让人产生饱足感,真正品尝食物可能会有所失望,因此人们应该在享受美食时不去设想它看上去有多好吃,故答案为A)。虽然文中提及广告商在不知不觉间免费喂饱了我们,但不能就此推断B)“广告商应该将广告中推广的产品制作得不那么吸引人”,故排除;本段第二句中提到人们享受食物的前提是不拍照或者不在上班时间浏览食物图片,因此C)“人们会享受在网上看到的引起食欲的食物”与其背道而驰,故排除;本段最后一句建议拍客只关注拍摄内容,不设想食物的口感,并没有建议“放弃拍摄”,故D)“为了尽情享受美食,拍客应放弃拍摄食物”不符合文意,故排除。
