He danced around the stage like a real rock star!

30、When you eat something really sour, there is something that can’t be ignored. It is the _________ that isn’t limited to your tongue. An especially sour bite has a way of making your entire face _________ into a look of discomfort. If you can’t _________ puckering (撅起) your mouth when you lick a lemon or snack on Sour Patch Kids, you can thank evolution.
That unmistakable sour flavor that stimulate your taste buds is a product that acids release when they combine with saliva (唾液) . When your mouth _________ this sign of acid, it lets you know in a dramatic way. Your taste receptors _________ and your face twists involuntarily in what’s known as a rejection response, according to Live Science.
Your tongue’s reactions to bitter or spicy foods are rejection _________ as well. Many plants found in nature with these _________ are poisonous, and your body’s strong reaction is its way of protecting you from harm. Sourness _________ naturally in fruits like citrus (柑橘), but it can be a warning of food-borne illness in many cases. _________ fruits and dairy products contain acid, which gives them a sour taste too.
It’s hard to ignore the sour flavor of what you’re eating when it twists your entire facial expression. This reaction isn’t necessarily enough to help someone who has already taken a bite of a bad apple, but it may protect the people they’re with. When our early human ancestors hunted for food, a sudden twisted face may have ____________ that whatever that person put in their mouth wasn’t good to eat.
The pucker response to ____________ flavors helped early humans avoid getting sick, but it doesn’t stop us from eating this kind of food today.
