Why does cream go bad faster than butter? Some researchers think they have the answer, and it comes down to the structure(结构) of the food, not its chemical composition (成份)—a finding that could help break away from some chemicals. Cream and butter contain pretty much the same things, so why cream should go bad much faster has been a problem. Both are small globules(小球) of one liquid spread throughout another. The difference lies in what's in the globules and what's in the surrounding liquid, says Brocklehurst, who led the research. In careen, fatty globules drift about in a sea of water. In butter, globules of a watery road are locked away in a sea of fat. The bacteria(细菌) which make the food go bad prefer to live in the watery areas of the mixture. “This me ans that in cream, thebacteria are free to grow throughout the mixture,” he says. When in butter, the bacteria are locked away in locked places buried deep in the sea of fat. Trapped in this way, those colonies cannot spread and rapidly run out. They also slowly poison themselves with their waste products.” In butter, you get a self-limiting system which stops the bacteria growing,” says Brocklehurst. The researchers are already working with food companies eager to see if their products can be made to stand bacterial attack through changes of the food's structure.
Brocklehurst believes it will be possible to make something changes of the for instance, more like that in butter, The key will be possible to make something used in salad cream liquid and mot taming like it into a solid state.

B My son and I were trying to sell the house we had repaired but in
the barn(谷仓)there were bats(蝙蝠)and they would not leave. The barn was their home. They told us so in their own way. They hung there in the barn and seemed determined to stay for the season. Don't worry about it, Dad, " Patrick said. They keep down the mosquitoes(蚊子).”
Unfortunately they also kept the buyers away. when we had asked a person to sell the house for us he had refused to show it because of the bats. Bats are popular, "Patrick comforted me. They're ecological(生态学的)."Isn't there a machine you can buy that produces high frequency s ounds to keep bats away?” I don't know,” said Patrick. But I like bats, and whoever buys this house will probably like them too."”Probably?"I hated that word. How many bats are there ,anyway?" I counted about 90 last night," said Patrick. They were dropping out from under the edge of the roof." You mean there are more—outside?" They're everywhere, Dad. But look at it this way. When the cold weather comes, they’ll be off to Mexico. Maybe in the spring we can keep them out. Don't worry about it,” he said for the hundredth time. It's not a problem."
The bat expert I called was even more active than Patrick. I think you've got a large number there,” he said in wonder, I’ve been trying to attract bats to our house for 25 years A single bat eats up his weight in mosquitoes and black flies three times every night. You're a very lucky
man.” I offered to share my luck with him. He could take them away. Bats have a remarkable homing instinct(本能),"he said. They'd fly straight back even if I transported them 100 miles. Once they have settled, you can't stop them from coming back." I was silent.
Finally we managed to rent “(出租)the house to a young family, who were also interested in buying it. What about the bats?" I said to Patrick.
Oh, they love the bats,” he said. No mosquitoes. No black flies. It's one of the things that attracted them." Do you think they will really buy the bouse? "Probably." Probably? Well,if they do ,I suppose I'll have to admit that I was wrong. "You mean you're going to eat your words?"
Yes, I am."
