美联英语提供：生活小常识：这五种食材千万别放冰箱！ 两分钟做个小测试，看看你的英语水平/test/kuaisu.aspx?tid=16-73675-0 It’s very preferable that you should store the following five items out of the refrigerator. 下面提到的五种食物，最好不要放冰箱。 You are mistaken if you think that absolutely all products enjoy low temperatures. 如果你认为所有食物都应低温存储，那就说明陷入误区啦。 There’re those that don’t. Here are some of them: 有些食物就不该存放在低温环境，比如： 1. Banana 香蕉 Bananas are full of vitamins and minerals. They are nutritious and it’s a shame to find out that the food is losing its best properties simply because you do not know how to store it. 香蕉富含维他命与矿物质。它们营养丰富，如果因为你存储不当，而导致这些珍贵的营养物质白白流失了，那可真是得不偿失。 Keep your bananas on the kitchen counter and let the fruits ripen. The ripening process is prevented if bananas are put in the cooler. 把香蕉放在橱柜上，让它们自然成熟就好。因为如果放冷却器里，香蕉成熟的过程会受到阻碍。 2. Garlic 大蒜 We do not want our garlic to sprout! But that’s what happens to this fragrant plant if it is kept in the cooler. 我们可谁都不想让大蒜发芽！但如果你把这种香料植物存放在冷却器里，那这就是它们的下场。 Take your garlic out of the fridge and find a better place. 所以啊，赶紧把你家大蒜从冰箱里救出来，给它们找个更舒坦的地儿住吧。 If you keep it in a dry, cool and well ventilated place, your garlic will not lose its aroma, properties and texture. 将大蒜存放于干躁通风之地，如此一来，它们的风味，营养以及口感就都得以保存啦。 3. Honey 蜂蜜 Honey is an incredibly valuable product. Its special properties make honey one of the super foods we all should consume on a regular basis unless you are allergic to it and cannot eat it. 蜂蜜是一种营养价值极高的食品。它所富含的特有物质使其成为人们钟爱的“超级食品”之一。除非你对它过敏吃不了，我们强烈建议大家将蜂蜜纳入常规饮食。 Honey is naturally preserved and does not need to be stored in the fridge. Keep natural honey in a clean container away from sunlight. 蜂蜜不需要放冰箱，自然储存就好。将天然蜂蜜放在干净的容器中，避免阳光直射。 Place it in a dry place where the temperature is not too low. Although crystallizing is a normal process, you can delay it by keeping your honey in room temperature. 将入罐的蜂蜜置于阴凉干燥处，不过要注意温度不可过低。出现结晶现象很正常，而只需将蜂蜜挪回室温环境，就能解决这个问题。 4. Basil 罗勒 Basil will lose its freshness and shape if you place it in the refrigerator. Cold temperatures wilt
