Le Whif，an inhaler(吸入器)that allows you to enjoy chocolate whenever you want without putting on weight，is to be released in British stores.The invention lets you suck in the taste of chocolate while taking on less than one calorie.Its inventors claim it will enable dieters to enjoy their favorite snacks without worrying about their waistlines.
The inhaler contains grams of tiny food particles(颗粒)．Each Le Whif contains enough flavors for about eight to ten puffs(吸)and costs ￡1.99 on its own，or ￡4.99 for a pack of three.
Le Whif was invented by David Edwards，professor of biomedical engineering at Harvard University，with the help of Michelin­rated chef Thierry Marx.Edwards said Le Whif was not designed to replace food but could be used to increase dining experiences，for example allowing people to sample a variety of dishes from restaurant menus before ordering their meals.
He said，“In terms of living off Le Whif，I think we are not even close to being there.But there clearly has been a revolution over the last few years where we are eating smaller amounts of food more frequently，and choosing food for its aesthetic(审美的)pleasure.We will be putting new products into the market probably every six months.The next line of products will be even more health centred.〞
The product was released in Paris in 2010 and a total of 25,000 inhalers sold out within a month.It has since been made available across France and in the US.In Britain Le Whif is to be sold first in House of Fraser for a month，after which it could become more widely distributed.
语篇解读：美国哈佛大学教授发明了一种含有巧克力颗粒的吸入器，你只要一吸就能解馋，还不会使你发胖。

5．From Paragraph 1 we can learn that Le Whif ______.
A．is very popular in Britain
B．can help dieters lose weight
C．is a kind of chocolate that contains a low amount of calories
D．is an instrument that makes you experience the taste of chocolate
解析：细节理解题。

根据第一段“Le Whif，an inhaler that allows you to enjoy chocolate...The invention lets you suck in the taste of chocolate...〞可知，Le Whif 是一种吸入器，可以让人体验巧克力的味道。

答案：D
6．David Edwards and Thierry Marx invented Le Whif to
______.
A．replace the traditional chocolate
B．increase people’s dining experiences
C．make people re­recognize chocolate
D．help restaurants offer diverse dishes
解析：细节理解题。

根据第三段“Edwards said Le Whif was not de signed to replace food but could be used to increase dining experiences...〞可知，爱德华兹发明Le Whif 的初衷是增加人们的进餐感受。

答案：B
7．It can be inferred from the passage that Le Whif ______.
A．is much more expensive than chocolate
B．will help remove addiction to chocolate
C．ha s been well­accepted since 2010
D．is only suitable for chocolate lovers
解析：推理判断题。

根据最后一段“The product was released in Paris in 2010 and
a total of 25,000 inhalers sold out within a month.〞可知，Le Whif 2010年进入市场就被抢购一空，由此。
