"Who Moves my cheese" "sniffing" and "hurried" may not like cheese

The fable story created by American writer Spencer Johnson "Who moved my cheese?" "In", the rats are always vigilant, and the mice can quickly act quickly, open up new directions, and find new food sources. They can actively adapt to changes. In Chinese culture, from the head of the head and the mouse to the head of the head, the mouse's impression in people's hearts are insignificant, dark, and disgusted. They seem to be the representative and typical of derogatory words. What is the "image" of the mouse? Is there a short look or another "hidden love"? Do they really like cheese?

The mouse is very "picky eaters"

The "mice" we often say is a mammal that "looks like a rat". However, the "rats" in strict scientific sense should specifically refer to "rodents", including "rodent" and "rabbit -shaped". There are nearly 200 types of China. : There are field rats that love to eat plants, hamsters who love seeds, and family rats that they like. Because common mice are small in size, fast heat dissipation and high energy demand, they keep eating to survive. Therefore, when the mouse is active, he is either eating or looking for food!

The common "rats" in the home generally refer to their mice, brown mice, black houses, yellow -breasted rat, and mice are all members. They are regular customers in kitchen and warehouses. In the face of various delicious food, mice also need to pick and pick. Scientists have found that rats like to eat high -calorie foods such as nuts, high sugar, and meat, and ancient Chinese lamp oil is mostly made of high -calorie animal fats, such as lard, butter, etc. The problem of lit oil is solved.

Do they love cheese? the answer is negative! They even deliberately avoid the taste of big flavor. This is because cheese calories are lower than nuts, only slightly higher than lean meat, and rats with high demand for calories naturally do not like to eat. So, what is going on with "mice love cheese"? Some people analyze that although mice do not like cheese, they occasionally take a few mouthfuls. It is easy to leave the mouse's tooth printing on the soft cheese, which is discovered by people; in addition, some cheese fermented holes are large, and mice may be drilled inside. Leave the wrong impression of "mice love to eat cheese". Coupled with various film and television works, it has continuously helped the flames, combining mice and cheese, and eventually left the stereotype of "mice love cheese" in people's minds.

Can the mouse only see the light?

The idiom "rats and light" are used to describe people's short eyes and lack of vision. Can the mouse's vision really only see an object within a few inches?

It really is. Scientists have found that the vision of mice is indeed poor, about only 1/30 of human vision. If a person with normal vision can see a 1 yuan coin on 5 meters away, then the mouse can only be seen from 17 cm from the object. This distance is about 5 inches (1 inch = 3.33333333). Therefore, "mouse eyes light" is even more rigorous should be "five inches of light". Of course, the "inch" here is a summary, not a real point. But why is mouse's vision so bad? If you think of your eyes as a "large camera", there are many "small cameras" in it. These small cameras are called "ganglia cells" and are located on the "retina". The density of the "small camera" in human eyes is about 5 times that of mice. Therefore, the vision of mice is naturally worse than humans.

What about pairing a pair of glasses for mice? This is a bit unreliable. Because the sensitivity of the mouse's eyes to the change of light is very low, it is about 1/40 of the human eye. Therefore, even with a pair of glasses, they have not changed much. Although mice have poor vision, they also have a big vision. The eyes of the mouse are located on both sides of the head. Although the "eye vision" is small and the positioning of things is not allowed, the field of vision is as high as 280 ° (and humans are only about 200 °). Discover predators, and escape in advance! From nursery rhymes to idioms, there are no good words to describe rat, but the scientific common sense is obvious to all, not formed because of dislike of them, and it is basically based.
