Ş tia ţ i că ... Cultivarea arborelui de cacao este atestat ă documentar încă din anul 1100 î.Hr.? Populaţiile str ăvechi, precum Maya şi Azteca, cultivau cacao din care î şi preparau apoi diverse b ăuturi. Ciocolata adevarată conţine atât unt de cacao (nu margarin ă sau alte grasimi vegetale hidrogenate nes ănătoase) cât şi pudr ă de cacao (partea non-grasă)? De aceea, speciali ştii consider ă că ciocolata albă nu se califică pentru a fi denumită “ciocolată” (ciocolata albă conţine doar unt de cacao, nu şi pudr ă de cacao). Ciocolata corect facut ă (vezi mai sus) este recunoscut ă pentru calitaţile benefice asupra sănătaţii pe care le are! Este demonstrat că, mancată în cantităţi moderate, ciocolata reduce presiunea arterial ă şi numărul de radicali liberi dar ajut ă şi la îmbunătăţirea nivelui de serotonină din creier (serotonina este hormonul asociat cu starea de fericire). Coasta de Filde ş este cel mai mare produc ător de cacao din lume? Aproximativ 43% din producţia mondială de cafea provine de aici. Coasta de Filde ş este, totodată, şi unul din cei mai mari exportatori de ulei de palmier. Limba engleză este limba nativă a peste 300 milioane de oameni? Este a doua limbă vorbită pentru aproximativ 150 milioane de oameni? În total, limba engleză are aproximativ 500 milioane de vorbitori, conform opiniei majorit ăţii specialistilor? Se estimează că cel puţin 800 de milioane de oameni cunosc limba englez ă, cel puţin la nivel de baz ă? Cel mai lung cuvânt din limba română este pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcaniconioza? Acesta con ţine 44 de caractere. Electroglotospectrografie este cel mai lung cuvânt cuprins în DEX `98 şi înseamnă: “Metoda de stabilire a compozi ţiei armonice a semnalelor vorbirii prin analiza impulsurilor ob ţinute cu electroglotograful”. Există şi cacografie, nu doar cacofonie? Cacofonia semnaleaz ă o eroare de stil în vorbire caracterizat ă de alăturarea nepotrivită a unor sunete care, rostite, distrag aten ţia ascultătorului. Cacafonice sunt şi expresii ca “la latitudine”, “pe pervaz”, “am ameliorat” etc., nu doar clasicele “ca cartea”, “cu curaj” etc. Cuvântul cacofonie este de provenien ţă grecească: “kakos = r ău, urât” şi “phone = sunet”. Româna este singura limb ă romanică în care articolul hotărât este enclitic (se a flă la sfâr şitul substantivului)? Bildungsromanesc (din ger. bildungsroman) este cel mai lung cuvânt (16 caractere) care con ţine o singur ă dată cele 5 vocale principale ale limbii române (a, e, i, o. u)? Cuvântul autoînsămânţările este cel mai lung cuvânt (17 litere) care con ţine toate cele 8 vocale ale limbii române: a, ă, â, e, i, î, o, u. Acidul lactic e cauza febrei musculare? Atunci când mu şchii funcţionează, ei produc acid lactic, pe care organismul îl elimin ă cu ajutorul ficatului. În cazul unui efort sus ţinut, acidul lactic nu mai poate fi eliminat în totalitate, astfel el se acumuleaz ă şi determină dureri musculare: aceasta este febra muscular ă. Autostrada Eisenhower din S.U.A. cere ca din fiecare cinci mile una s ă fie dreaptă. Aceste sec ţiuni drepte folosesc pe timp de r ăzboi sau alte urgen ţe. Pisicile au peste o sut ă de corzi vocale, pe când câinii au doar în jur de zece. Ochii noştri au întotdeauna aceea şi mărime de la naştere, dar nasul şi urechile noastre nu se opresc niciodat ă din creştere. Mulţi hamsteri clipesc doar cu un ochi, pe rând. Dimensiunile lui Barbie, dac ă ar fi vie sunt 39-23-33, ceea ce ar corespunde unei persoane scheletice, anorexice, subnutrite şi bună de dus urgent la spital! Un model deloc demn de promovat!!! Nici un cuvânt din limba engleză nu rimează cu “month” (lună). Leonardo Da Vinci a inventat foarfeca. În ultimii 4000 de ani nici un animal nou nu a fost domesticit pe scar ă largă. Bebeluşii se nasc far ă oasele genunchilor care apar abia la vârsta de 2-6 ani Cel mai comun nume din lume este Mohamed. Michael Jordan câ ştigă mai mulţi bani anual de la Nike decât to ţi angajaţii Nike din Malaysia la un loc. În 1980 exista o singur ă ţar ă în lume far ă telefoane: Bhutan (Asia, m-ţii Himalaya). Pinguinii pot sări la o înălţime de până la 1,8 metri. Benzile desenate cu Donald Duck au fost interzise în Finlanda pentru c ă personajul nu purta pantaloni. Având în vedere c ă această ţar ă este una dintre ţările cu un sistem educ ţional dintre cele mai bine gândite din lume, nu putem decât s ă salutăm decizia lor! Doar 55% dintre americani ştiu că soarele este o stea. Majoritatea maşinilor americane claxoneaz ă în nota la. Populaţia mondială de găini este aproape egal ă cu cea a oamenilor. În statul american Kansas este ilegal s ă prinzi un peşte cu mâinile goale. Unele paste de dinţi conţin antigel. Sigmund Freud avea o mare fric ă de ferigi. Millie, câinele de la Casa Alb ă câştigă de peste 4 ori mai mult decât câ ştiga preşedintele Bush în 1991. Şi pe bună dreptate. Majoritatea vacilor produc mai mult lapte când ascult ă muzică armonioasă (simfonică, electronică etc). Se pare că efectele benefice ale sunetelor armonioase se extind şi în regnul animal. ~ 19 ~
