Molecules found on phones reveal lifestyle secrets
What does your phone say about you? Molecules (分子) found on mobile phones reveal an astonishing amount about the owner’s health and lifestyle — including their food preferences and medication.
Californian scientists found traces of everything from caffeine and spices to skin creams and anti-depressants (抗抑郁药物) on 40 phones they tested. We leave traces of molecules, chemicals and bacteria on everything we touch. Even washing hands thoroughly would not prevent the transfer to everyday objects, the researchers said. Using a technique called mass spectrometry (光谱测定), the University of California San Diego research team tested 500 samples taken from 40 adults’ mobile phones and hands. They then compared them with molecules identified in a database and produced a “lifestyle profile” of each phone owner.

Dr Amina Bouslimani, an assistant project scientist on the study, said the results were revealing. “By analysing the molecules they left behind on their phones, we could tell if a person is likely to be female, uses high-end cosmetics (化妆品), dyes her hair, drinks coffee, prefers beer over wine, likes spicy food, is being treated for depression, wears sunscreen and bug spray — and therefore likely to spend a lot of time outdoors — all kinds of things,” she said.
Most of the molecules are thought to be transferred from people’s skin, hands and sweat to their phone. Mosquito repellents (驱蚊剂) and sunscreens were found to stay for a particularly long time on people’s skin and phones, even when they had not been used for months. Previous research by the same team found that people who had not washed for three days still had lots of traces of health and beauty products on their skin.
The study said the testing method could identify an object’s owner without fingerprints. It could also check if patients were taking their medication. Besides, it could provide useful information about a person’s exposure to pollution.
The researchers now want to find out more about the great quantity of bacteria that cover our skin — and what they reveal about us. Senior author Prof Pieter Dorrestein said there were at least 1,000 different microbes living on the average person’s skin, in hundreds of locations on the body.

第五部分:书面表达(满分25分)
请阅读下面短文,并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。
Taking babies on their flights can be incredibly discouraging for parents. They’re often faced with the passengers who may get annoyed. Stares, sighs, complaints and shakes of the head are just a few things that keep parents from looking their fellow passengers in the eye. Therefore, some parents try to make it easier for their fellow passengers by handing out goodie bags as a beforehand apology — usually filled with some candy and a set of ear plugs.
Going with the bag is a note like this:
Hi stranger!
My name is Andaqi. I will be 4 months on January 15th and this is my first flight.
I’ll try to be on my best behavior, but I’d like to apologize in advance if I lose my cool, get scared or my ears hurt. I’m also at the beginning stages of teething so I don’t always feel good. I know I’m just a baby but I want you to enjoy this flight as well.
My mom, Niqelle, packed you this goodie bag with a few treats.
There are also ear plugs in case my first public serenade isn’t as enjoyable to you as it is to my mom.
Have a great flight and thanks for understanding!
Andaqi & Niqelle
This immediately went viral online. Some think it’s a nice gesture and they’re just trying to be nice — a good instinct in these tense times. However, others think differently as babies should not need to apologize for being babies.
