Highlander is 5 meters long, weighs 2 tons and consumes 7.4 liters of fuel. Who else?

[China. com evaluation]

Guangzhou Automobile Toyota Highlander is a very representative model, and its labels are "God Car for Value Preservation", "Wealth Management Artifact" and "Reliable Partner". Nowadays, the fourth-generation Highlander has been listed, and we have also collected some questions that netizens are concerned about, so as to give you an answer: Is the fourth-generation Highlander worth buying?

Highlander is 5 meters long, weighs 2 tons and consumes 7.4 liters of fuel. Who else?

1. How about the hybrid fuel consumption of Highlander?

Different from the third-generation Highlander, the fourth-generation Highlander comes standard with a 2.5L hybrid system, which weighs 1.9-2.1 tons. There are two kinds of single-motor two-wheel drive and dual-motor four-wheel drive. This time, we test-drive the dual-motor four-wheel drive version, with larger battery capacity and higher comprehensive power, 1+1>2, achieving stronger power and lower fuel consumption.

Let’s first look at a set of data from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. The comprehensive fuel consumption of the two-wheel drive version is 5.3L, and the comprehensive fuel consumption of the four-wheel drive version is 5.8L/100km. According to our driving these days, the mileage is 207 kilometers, the average speed is about 30km/h, and the apparent fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is about 7.4L L.

Moreover, the body weight of this four-wheel drive Extreme Edition we test-drive exceeds 2.1 tons, and it is not easy to achieve such fuel consumption. Compared with the 7-seat SUV of the same level, according to this average speed, the actual comprehensive fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is rarely lower than 10L, and most of them are around 11-13 liters.

Highlander’s fuel tank volume is 65L, and 92 # oil can meet it. It can run at least 800 kilometers with a full tank of oil. If the driving conditions are good, it can also run 1000 kilometers with a tank of oil. Whether traveling in cities or long distances, you can reduce the number of refueling, and daily car use can also reduce a lot of expenses.

2. How does Highlander drive?

Highlander is equipped with the fourth generation enhanced THSⅡ Toyota hybrid system. Compared with the two-wheel drive version, the four-wheel drive version adds a drive motor to the rear axle, and the measured acceleration score of 100 kilometers is 8.5 seconds. The strong acceleration performance means that you can accelerate overtaking easily in both cities and high-speed road conditions.

The low speed is mainly driven by motor, and the engine will also intervene when it needs to accelerate rapidly. The front and rear axle dual-drive motors can intelligently adjust the driving force of the front and rear axles in a wide range of 100:0-20:80. Not only the start is more stable, the corner is more flexible, and it is faster to get out of trouble, but also you can experience an unprecedented feeling of pushing your back. Four-wheel drive integrated management system, TRAIL escape mode, especially when climbing in snowfall and heavy snowfall, can be handled calmly with one button.

The gearbox adopts E-CVT structure, so it is very fast in transmission efficiency and acceleration response, and there is no shift setback during acceleration, so the powertrain ride is very good.

Turning to Toyota’s can attribute, the strength is moderate, and women are not tired when driving. The accelerator and brake pedal follow the foot. Although the accelerator doesn’t stick to the foot like an organ, it still follows the foot.As for suspension vibration prevention, the vibration prevention effect is very good for most pavements, and it can also reach the level that this level should have.

3. How about the sound insulation of Highlander?

Highlander hybrid low-speed pure electric driving is very quiet, and there is no sound of motor in the cockpit. However, under the condition of rapid acceleration and low power in the hybrid battery pack, the engine noise introduced into the car is still obvious at the moment when the engine suddenly starts.

Highlander is 5 meters long, weighs 2 tons and consumes 7.4 liters of fuel. Who else?

The hybrid system equipped by Highlander hybrid belongs to weak hybrid, and the battery capacity is relatively small. Pure electric drive is mostly used in the initial stage of the vehicle.When the engine starts at a speed of less than 40, the noise transmitted from the engine room to the car is obvious when the engine starts instantly. Between 40 and 80There is little difference between tire noise and chassis noise.The speed is 100-120, and the whole noise control is slightly better.

Highlander is 5 meters long, weighs 2 tons and consumes 7.4 liters of fuel. Who else?

Although there are many noise reduction upgrades such as sound insulation glass design, filling foam materials and adding sound-absorbing cotton, the overall sound insulation when low-speed engines are involved is not up to the standard of 300,000-class models, and it is close to the same level at other speeds.

4. What about the fourth-generation Highlander space?

Inheriting Highlander’s consistent full use of the interior space, the second and third rows of seats also support 4/6 division, which is integrated and flat after being completely laid down. Three rows of seats: the length of the luggage compartment is increased by 50mm, reaching 520mm, and the volume is 215L, so that two 30-inch suitcases can be lightened; When there are two rows of seats, the length of the luggage compartment is increased by 85mm, reaching 1182mm and the volume is 568L L.

There are two seats in the front row, and the space and range of activities are also very large. The second row of seats supports forward and backward movement, and the backrest also supports angle adjustment, so the seat comfort is good. The space in the third row is slightly smaller, the cushion design is short, and the ground clearance is also small. It is acceptable for adults to take short-distance emergency rides. If it is long-distance, it will be more painful, and the children in the back seat are suitable.

5. What are the highlights of Highlander?

The overall interior of the new generation Highlander has changed a lot, and the upper, middle and lower areas of the center console are clearly divided. Among them, the elite version provides an 8-inch touch screen, while the distinguished version and the extreme version provide a 12.3-inch screen, with diversified display functions and no difficulty in operation.

The 12.3-inch central control large screen supports in-vehicle intelligent system such as HiCar/Carplay/Carlife, as well as map navigation, online music, voice recognition, home appliance connection, life service, applet and payment.

In addition, the whole system comes standard with "Fengyun Yuexiang" Zhixing Internet service to realize remote control of vehicles by mobile phones. Get 14 intelligent remote services including: vehicle condition inquiry, enjoyable parking, remote air conditioning, anti-theft reminder, vehicle positioning, etc. through Fengyunxing APP.

However, it is necessary to spit out the panoramic image of Highlander. The image quality of the whole image is very rough, and the display screen is relatively small. Moreover, in the case of dark at night, the picture taken by the camera is not clear, and I hope that the redesigned models will be improved in the future.

6. Buy the fourth-generation Highlander Hybrid or the third-generation Highlander 2.0T?

The fourth-generation Highlander adopts full-range hybrid, so the third-generation Highlander 2.0T model is still on sale. In the case of similar price, it is definitely to buy new ones instead of old ones, because Highlander hybrid is much better than fuel version in fuel economy. And the practical configuration, the car networking function is also the old one and does not have the configuration.

Highlander is 5 meters long, weighs 2 tons and consumes 7.4 liters of fuel. Who else?

Although Highlander locates a 7-seat SUV, the performance of the third row of space can only meet the emergency use. If there are five people in the family and they are a big five-seat SUV, they can meet the riding needs.

Highlander is 5 meters long, weighs 2 tons and consumes 7.4 liters of fuel. Who else?

If it is a two-child family or there are many people traveling at home, then I still suggest waiting for the Guangzhou Automobile Toyota Saina with a stable price.

Summary:Nowadays, the size of space is still an important demand for many people to buy a car. The 200,000-class compact SUV can no longer satisfy people’s desire for space. The 300,000-class medium-sized SUV has become a new choice for many people.

However, with the increase of body size and weight, fuel consumption also follows, which is very helpless every time you refuel at the moment of high oil prices. Even though Highlander has some problems, such as insufficient sound insulation, it has achieved the advantage of low fuel consumption that is not available in the same class. The appearance of the hybrid version of Highlander with low fuel consumption makes it the model with the lowest fuel consumption in its class.

Goodbye the death of R2D2 in the robot Star Wars series.

Kenny Baker

   1905 movie network news At the end of the series, R2D2, a robot with a fixed crew, woke up under the call of the map. I believe this scene will make a lot of Star Wars fans burst into tears. However, on August 13th, local time, the unfortunate news came that kenny baker, a British gnome actor who had been playing R2D2 in the series, died at the age of 81.

 

    Kenny baker was born in Birmingham, England in 1934. Shortly after his birth, his height has been maintained at 112 cm. And his parents are very normal in height. At first, Baker’s ideal was to follow in his father’s footsteps and become a sculptor. But he didn’t have the opportunity to receive an education to become a sculptor. In 1951, he was invited by a lady in the street to perform dwarfs and dwarfs in the theater. Soon, he became a member of the circus on the road. In 1976, george lucas started him to play the robot R2D2 in his blockbuster Star Wars. And this is the actor’s most famous role so far. In addition to the full series of Star Wars, kenny baker also participated in the shooting of famous films such as,, Time Robber and so on. However, it is not widely known because it is not the protagonist. It is worth mentioning that in the latest Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the title of robot R2D2 became R2D2 consultant, and the role ushered in an upgrade and change, but the actor died at this time.

 

    After Baker’s death, his niece issued a statement saying: "Baker’s departure is the result of nature, although his departure is sad. He brought laughter to people all over the world, and also let us know that he was loved by the whole world. We are very proud of his achievements in his life. When he was a child, he felt that as a person who could not grow up, he could not live through adolescence. However, his next wonderful life broke his idea. In the past few years, his physical condition has been very bad, and death is just a natural result. He has always been taken care of by several nieces. One of them found him dead on Saturday morning. "

 

    It is still unknown who will play R2D2 in Star Wars. However, with the development of digital technology, R2D2 actually no longer needs actors to "play".

Foreign Ministry answers questions on current events in the Middle East.

On January 6, 2020, Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Geng Shuang held a regular press conference.


Q: The current contradiction between the United States and Iraq has escalated. The United States said that if Iran attacks any American citizens or assets, it will strike against 52 Iranian targets. According to the Iranian side, about 35 targets of the United States in the region are within the scope of Iraq’s attack. How does China view the current state of affairs?

A: China is highly concerned about the current situation in the Middle East. No one wants to see the situation in the Middle East Gulf deteriorate further. Ensuring peace and stability in this region is of vital importance to the whole world.

Power politics is unpopular and unsustainable. The recent military adventures of the United States violate the basic norms of international relations and aggravate the tension and turmoil in the regional situation. China has always opposed the use of force in international relations. There is no way out by military means, and extreme pressure simply won’t work.

China maintains that all parties should earnestly abide by the purposes and principles of the Charter of the United Nations and the basic norms governing international relations, that the independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity of all countries should be respected, and that peace and stability in the Middle East Gulf region should be maintained. We urge the United States not to abuse force, and call on all parties concerned to exercise restraint, avoid escalating the situation in turn, return to the track of dialogue and consultation as soon as possible, and promote the cooling of tensions.

China will continue to uphold an objective and fair stance and play a constructive role in maintaining peace and security in the Middle East Gulf region.

Q: Follow up a question about Iraq and the United States. The Iraqi National Assembly passed a resolution demanding that the government end the presence of foreign troops in Iraq. On Sunday, US President Trump said that he would impose severe sanctions on Iraq. He said in Twitter, "If we don’t leave on a friendly basis, we will impose unprecedented sanctions on them." What is China’s comment on this?

A: We have seen relevant reports. China has always believed that when dealing with state relations, it should abide by the purposes and principles of the UN Charter and the basic norms of international relations. China has always opposed the use or threat of sanctions in international relations, and even more opposed the imposition of unilateral sanctions on a country. We have always maintained that Iraq’s independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity should be earnestly safeguarded. We hope that the countries concerned, especially the big countries outside the region, can do more to promote peace and stability in the Middle East and avoid taking measures that may escalate the regional situation.

Q: On Sunday, Iran announced the latest measures to reduce its commitment to the comprehensive Iranian nuclear agreement. Is China worried about this? Who do you think is responsible for this? Iran or America?

A: China has taken note of Iran’s announcement to reduce the implementation of the comprehensive Iranian nuclear agreement in the fifth phase. It has also taken note of Iran’s statement that this is the last time to reduce its implementation. Iran will continue to cooperate with the International Atomic Energy Agency and resume its implementation under certain conditions. We believe that although Iran was forced to reduce its performance due to external factors, it also showed restraint and clearly expressed its political will to implement the comprehensive agreement completely and effectively, and did not violate its obligations under the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons.

At present, the complexity of the situation in the Middle East is rising, and the comprehensive agreement is facing severe challenges. The unilateral withdrawal of the United States from the comprehensive agreement, ignoring international law and obligations, exerting extreme pressure on Iran and obstructing other parties’ performance are the root causes of the Iranian nuclear tension and should also be the basic starting point for all parties to handle the Iranian nuclear issue objectively and fairly. All participants in the comprehensive agreement should remain calm and rational, adhere to the correct direction of political and diplomatic settlement, persist in resolving differences in performance through consultation within the framework of the Joint Committee of the Comprehensive Agreement, eliminate interference, avoid taking any measures that may further complicate the situation, and fully safeguard the comprehensive agreement.

Finally, I want to emphasize that the comprehensive agreement is hard-won, an important achievement of multilateral diplomacy approved by the Security Council resolution, an important support for the international nuclear non-proliferation system and peace and stability in the Middle East, and an important part of the international order based on international law. The international community should proceed from the long-term and overall situation, firmly safeguard the comprehensive agreement, and promote the easing of the situation in the Iranian nuclear issue and the Middle East. China will continue to maintain close communication and coordination with relevant parties and make unremitting efforts to this end.

Q: A spokesman for the Iranian Foreign Ministry said yesterday that Iran has written to the UN Security Council about the death of Soleimani. The Iranian Foreign Ministry said that it has taken various political and legal measures, including at the level of the Security Council. Does China think this matter should be discussed in the Security Council?

A: China has noticed that the Permanent Representative of Iran to the United Nations has written to the President of the Security Council and the Secretary-General of the United Nations. The military adventure of the United States violates the basic norms of international relations and intensifies the tension and turmoil in the regional situation. The Security Council bears the primary responsibility for maintaining international peace and security and should earnestly shoulder the responsibilities entrusted by the Charter of the United Nations. As a permanent member of the Security Council, China will continue to uphold an objective and fair stance and work with relevant parties to jointly safeguard international law and international fairness and justice and safeguard peace and security in the Middle East Gulf region.

Q: Against the background of increasing tension between the United States and Iraq, will China increase its security presence in the Middle East?

A: I have just said this when answering questions from other reporters. China is highly concerned about the current situation in the Middle East. The further deterioration of the situation in the Middle East Gulf region is not in the interest of either side. Ensuring peace and stability in this region is of vital importance to the whole world.

China has always opposed the abuse of force in international relations. We call on all parties concerned to exercise restraint, avoid escalating the situation in turn, return to the track of dialogue and consultation as soon as possible, and promote the cooling of tensions.

China will continue to uphold an objective and fair stance and play a constructive role in maintaining peace and security in the Middle East Gulf region.

Exceeding the warranty period does not necessarily exempt the quality assurance responsibility.

After the buyer moved into the house he bought, he found that there was a problem with the quality of the house, and asked the real estate developer to repair it or bear the cost of repairing it. However, the real estate developer refused to take responsibility for the quality of the house on the grounds that the house had exceeded the warranty period. Then, if the commercial housing exceeds the warranty period, can the real estate developer be exempted from the quality guarantee responsibility?

Found the problem and failed to negotiate. The buyer appealed to the court.

Mr. Wang signed a Commercial Housing Sales Contract with a real estate developer and its annexes, which stated the information of Mr. Wang’s purchase of a house developed by a real estate developer and the delivery time of the house. According to the warranty scope, warranty period and warranty responsibility of the house, the warranty period of the plastering layer on the wall and ceiling of the house is 2 years. During the warranty period, if the plastering layer on the wall and ceiling of the house falls off due to construction quality problems, a real estate developer will carry out the warranty for free.

After the contract was signed, Mr. Wang paid the house price according to the contract, and a real estate developer also delivered the house to Mr. Wang on schedule, and Mr. Wang soon renovated and moved in.

Less than a year after moving in, Mr. Wang found that the wall and ceiling of the house began to crack and the plastering layer gradually fell off. Mr. Wang thought that there was a problem with the quality of the house, and immediately reported it to the sales office of the property service enterprise and a real estate developer in the community, but it was fruitless for many times. The property service enterprise and a real estate developer never came to the door for maintenance.

After a period of repeated negotiations, neither the property service enterprise nor a real estate developer responded to Mr. Wang’s maintenance requirements. In desperation, Mr. Wang filed a lawsuit with the court, demanding that a real estate developer assume the responsibility of house maintenance and compensate for the losses caused in the process of house maintenance.

At the same time of prosecution, Mr. Wang entrusted a house safety appraisal company to appraise the houses involved in the case. After the on-site inspection, a house safety appraisal company made a House Safety Appraisal Report, and the appraisal conclusion was that the plastering layer of the house did not meet the requirements of "Quality Acceptance Standard for Building Decoration Engineering", "The plastering layer should be firmly bonded with the base layer, and the plastering layer should be free from delamination and hollowing, and the surface layer should be free from ash explosion and cracks", and there were quality problems in the plastering layer of the above-mentioned house. According to the "Quality Acceptance Standard for Building Decoration Engineering", the total area of hollowing is 11.36 square meters and the total length of cracks is 2.46 meters, which need to be repaired. The treatment suggestion given in the Housing Safety Appraisal Report is that the hollows and cracks should be removed with a shovel, and then plastered again and the surface decoration layer should be repaired according to the construction specification of plastering layer. Mr. Wang paid the appraisal fee of 8000 yuan.

During the court hearing, Mr. Wang also entrusted a real estate appraisal company to evaluate the repair cost and the cost of restoring the surface decorative layer of the house with quality problems. A real estate appraisal company made a Real Estate Appraisal Report, and the appraisal result showed that the total cost of repairing and restoring the surface decorative layer of the house with quality problems was 14,639 yuan according to the total area provided by Mr. Wang. Mr. Wang paid the appraisal fee of 2000 yuan.

Emphasize that the developer can’t refuse to pay for the overdue proof.

During the trial of the case, the court entrusted a professional institution to identify the house involved in the case, and concluded that the house involved in the case did have quality problems. In this regard, a real estate developer can’t prove that the quality problem is caused by other reasons, such as natural forces or improper use by buyers.

However, a real estate developer argued that the "Commercial Housing Sales Contract" signed with Mr. Wang stipulated that the warranty period for the plastering layer on the wall and ceiling of the house was two years, and the time for Mr. Wang to file a lawsuit had exceeded the warranty period of the house, so a real estate developer should not bear the responsibility of repairing the house and paying compensation.

After hearing the dispute between the two parties, the court held that the Commercial Housing Sales Contract signed by Mr. Wang and a real estate developer and its annexes were the true intention of both parties, and their contents did not violate the mandatory provisions of laws and regulations, and both parties should strictly perform them. According to the contract between the two parties, the warranty period of the plastering layer on the wall and ceiling of the house is 2 years. During the warranty period, the two parties failed to bring a lawsuit to the court because of the quality of the house, so the plastering layer on the wall of the commercial house involved in the case did not pass the warranty period. In accordance with the Interpretation of the Supreme People’s Court on Several Issues Concerning the Application of Laws in the Trial of Disputes over Commercial Housing Sales Contracts, "the house delivered for use has quality problems, and the seller shall bear the responsibility for repair during the warranty period; If the seller refuses to repair or delays the repair within a reasonable period of time, the buyer can repair by himself or entrust others, and the repair cost and other losses caused during the repair period shall be borne by the seller. After identification, there are quality problems in the house involved in the case, and a real estate developer shall bear the liability for breach of contract.

Regarding the commitment of appraisal fees and evaluation fees, a real estate developer did not respond to whether there were quality problems in the houses involved in the delivery before the appraisal agency made a quality appraisal opinion, but agreed to conduct quality appraisal. Therefore, the appraisal fee and evaluation fee should also be borne by a real estate developer.

A real estate developer filed an appeal, claiming that the case claimed by Mr. Wang involved the repair of housing quality problems and surface decorations, which had exceeded the two-year warranty period stipulated in the purchase contract, and that Mr. Wang did not issue a "Housing Safety Appraisal Report" within the warranty period to prove that there was a problem with the housing quality, so a real estate developer should not bear the responsibility of housing repair and compensation.

The format clause has no effect. The collegial panel ruled as requested.

Mr. Wang pleaded in the second instance that when he handed over the house with a real estate developer, he did not carry out professional testing. As an ordinary consumer, he could not detect whether the house had quality problems during the inspection. At the same time, when handing over the house, a real estate developer did not provide the "Residential Quality Guarantee" as agreed in the contract, and a real estate developer did not inform himself of the warranty content and warranty period in detail.

The appraisal report on house safety makes the appraisal conclusion that the plastering layer of the house involved in the case has quality problems. Combined with the actual situation that the plastering layer of the house involved in the case falls off in a large area in less than two years, it is enough to conclude that the house involved in the case has quality problems and the two-year warranty period should not apply. Moreover, Mr. Wang has repeatedly asked a real estate developer to carry out maintenance, and a real estate developer has shirked it for various reasons, resulting in Mr. Wang having to entrust a professional organization to conduct appraisal and evaluation. The expenses caused by this are all caused by a malicious breach of contract by a real estate developer and should be borne by a real estate developer.

The court of second instance held that the Commercial Housing Sales Contract signed by Mr. Wang and a real estate developer was a standard contract provided by a real estate developer, and the terms concerning the warranty period of the roof and plastering layer of the house were standard terms. Although the warranty period is agreed, it exempts a real estate developer from the main responsibility in disguise and infringes on Mr. Wang’s main rights. Moreover, a real estate developer did not inform Mr. Wang of the relevant contents when presenting the contract, which should be considered as an invalid format clause.

Accordingly, the court of second instance ruled that the appeal reason of a real estate developer that "the warranty period has expired and it should not undertake the repair obligation" cannot be established. It is not improper for the court of first instance to order a real estate developer to pay Mr. Wang the repair cost determined according to the appraisal conclusion due to the housing quality problem.

The court of second instance stressed that during the trial of the case, it was identified by professional institutions that there were indeed quality problems in the houses involved. In this regard, a real estate developer can not prove that the quality problem is due to other reasons, so it should bear the consequences of failing to prove that the houses it provides do not meet the quality requirements.

The function and function of the housing warranty period is that the buyer can be exempted from the burden of proof that the housing quality problem is caused by the real estate developer during the warranty period, but it cannot be exempted from the contractual obligation of the real estate developer to ensure the housing quality within a reasonable period.

From this, we can be clear that commercial housing beyond the warranty period does not necessarily exempt real estate developers from the responsibility of quality assurance.

Don’t wash beef with clear water. I’ll teach you a trick. Dirty things will come out by themselves!

Beef is rich in protein and creatine. Its nutritional composition is closer to human needs than pork.

It is about to enter summer, and the hot weather makes many people feel that they should eat less beef, thinking that beef is a patent in autumn and winter.

In fact, this is a misunderstanding of beef in the traditional diet concept. The weather in summer is hot and consumes a lot, especially for people who do manual labor or do more exercise and fitness. Eating beef can provide them with high-quality energy needed by muscles and cells.

Eating beef in summer gets angry?

Beef, like other animal proteins, can be eaten in all seasons. It won’t make you "get angry" by itself. The cause of getting angry lies in the cooking methods and ingredients, such as star anise, pepper and pepper.

If you want to avoid getting angry when eating beef, you can choose the method of "cold and hot collocation". When cooking beef, add some cool vegetables and stew them together. Such as carrots, potatoes, mushrooms, cabbage and so on.

In ancient times, it was said that beef is the second largest meat food in China, second only to pork, and enjoys the reputation of "the favorite among the meat".

I believe many people still like to eat beef, so how do you clean the beef you bought? Many people directly rinse the beef with clear water and then start slicing or blanching.

In fact, the more boiled the beef, the dirtier it is! There are a lot of blood clots in beef. After blanching, the blood clots are all condensed in beef and can’t get out at all. In this way, the smell of beef must be very heavy!

Teach you a trick to clean beef correctly:

Tips for cleaning beef

/cleaning/

Step 1: Put the bought beef under the tap and rinse it with running water. First, rinse off some bacteria and dirt on the beef surface. Then prepare a bowl or basin and pour a proper amount of warm water into it.

Note: Washing any meat with warm water not exceeding 50 degrees can wash away the blood of meat products.

Step 2: The next step is very important, which is to add a proper amount of salt and a spoonful of white vinegar to warm water.

White vinegar and salt have bactericidal effect, and warm water can soak blood out of beef. Rub the beef slowly with your hands.

At this time, we will find that the dirty things fled out actively ~ blood foam and blood clots all floated on the water.

Step 3: Take out the beef, then pour in the right amount of water and wash it several times. The beef washed in this way is tasteless and very clean.

It is also very important to blanch the beef after cleaning.

/drowning/

Practice: put the cleaned beef into a cold water pot. Remember, it must be a cold water pot.

Then add an appropriate amount of onion, ginger and garlic to the pot, cover the pot and simmer for about 4 minutes. At this time, we will find a layer of dirty things floating on the water.

Skim off these dirty things, then fish out the beef, put it in clean water and rinse it again.

Doing so can make beef cleaner. Moreover, we can kill two birds with one stone by adding onion, ginger and garlic to the pot, which can remove some fishy smell of beef itself.

Through these two steps, the treated beef is very clean and has no fishy smell at all. Whether we use it to braise in soy sauce or make soup, the taste will be much better than that of beef processed by ordinary methods before.

Especially when we are cooking soup, we will find that the meat quality of beef will be more tender and firm, and it will be more delicious.

There is still a problem with eating beef-the stew is not bad!

You can’t even chew ~ ~

Stewing time is too short to cook.

It’s easy to get old after a long time

It’s really delicious beef, but it’s not easy to cook!

How can beef be stewed?

First, choose the meat to make it soft and tender.

Choose fat and thin meat.

Whether it is frying or stewing, choosing the fat and thin one will be more tender than the pure thin one.

It’s better to try beef rib stew, cut into hob pieces, rich in oil, and stewed tender tendons in it, which is rich in taste. You can also choose bovine tendon, the anterior tendon is more tender and the posterior tendon is good. Cutting hob blocks or small pieces will do. Cattle tendon rots quickly, and usually it will be cooked just right after stewing for one and a half hours.

Choosing the right part is the key.

Choosing the right part is the key, and it depends on your cooking method. Fresh meat is suitable for frying and scalding hot pot, and beef brisket, beef tendon and tail are suitable for stewing.

Second, the prelude to cooking, there are doorways to deal with beef

The fibers of the meat are interrupted first.

Cut off the fiber directly with a pine needle or a pine hammer, and then fry, fry or stew it.

You can also use the back of the Chinese kitchen knife to pat the meat or the side of the knife and photograph the fascia of the meat spreading.

Vertical texture meat block

Pay attention to the meat when you cut it. Don’t cut it along the grain, but cut it perpendicular to the grain.

Cured meat has a doorway.

Marinate the beef with baking soda powder and starch for more than half an hour, and the beef will be tender.

When pickling, you must add blending oil first, and you can’t add salt. The salt will dehydrate, and it will be old no matter how it is cooked!

You can also squeeze some lemon juice when pickling. Fruit acid can destroy the tissue of meat.

Third, the small coup when stewing beef

Use tea skillfully, only add boiling water.

If it is stewed, wrap a pinch of tea with gauze, which can enhance the flavor and make the beef tender faster. Add enough water at one time. If water must be added halfway, add boiling water instead of cold water.

Honey or red wine proteolytic protein

When stewing, put some honey or red wine, both of which contain enzymes and proteases that decompose animal proteins, which can make the meat soft, but honey will be decomposed before the broth is scalded.

Sugar and vinegar destroy the cell structure.

Sugar and vinegar can destroy the cellular structure of beef and make its meat soft and rotten. You can also simply put one or two hawthorn instead, and the effect is the same. Because hawthorn contains a certain amount of lipase and maslinic acid, it can promote lipolysis and improve the activity of proteolytic enzymes, and the main components of meat are protein and fat.

Use beer instead of water.

Using beer instead of water, the approximate ratio is two Jin of beef and a bottle of beer. Even beef tendon can be stewed in two hours!

Add soybean sauce and tomatoes, soft and delicious.

When you stew beef, add some soybean sauce and stew it in a pressure cooker for 20 minutes. After coming out, the soup is particularly good and soft.

Beef stew with tomatoes is king. If you don’t want tomatoes to dominate, just add one or half. Beef rots quickly and tastes better.

These are some tips about stewing beef.

Degraded year-end award of Dachang: Last year, a Huawei mobile phone, this year’s cultural shirt plus self-heating hot pot.

On December 8th, a user whose authentication information is an employee of a big factory posted a message on the social platform, saying, "The year-end awards of big factories this year are a little rolled up", and also listed some year-end award plans of Netease, Xiaomi and Tencent.

The screenshot of its exposure shows that the year-end award of Netease’s "Harry Potter Magic Awakening" project team is as high as 888,888 yuan; Xiaomi, who made a profit of 78.06 billion in the third quarter, and the year-end award of the smart factory technology department will be paid for 8 months; Tencent’s League of Legends project team is even more amazing, with a year-end bonus of 1.2 million yuan per person in cash. On this basis, there will be a superposition of sunny days and stocks. ……

"Not so much," an employee of Tencent’s mobile game department told the Times Weekly reporter that the employee did not disclose the specific amount. Another employee close to the game department said, "Anyway, double-digit monthly salary, plus company stock and extra bonus of the department".

People close to Netease confirmed the year-end award of the Harry Potter project team on the Internet to the Times Weekly reporter. "It’s really true, but it’s not too much for one person to get 880,000 yuan for the game of 2.3 billion yuan in the first month."

Harry Potter Magic Awakening is one of the hottest games this year, which also makes the staff of the game project team stand at the top of the year-end award.

Everyone on the internet scolds the big factory, but in reality everyone wants to enter the factory. A large number of netizens shouted "envy", but some netizens pointed out that "the Internet is seriously polarized, and people who get high-paying year-end awards are hairy and horny." "Thanks for inviting me, I have just been laid off, so don’t try to trick me into entering the factory again."

A large factory employee who is not a game line told the Times Weekly reporter, "Last year, the year-end bonus was one Huawei per capita. This year, it was a self-heating hot pot plus two cultural shirts. The self-heating hot pot has not been sent yet. I don’t know if there is one, but I have got the cultural shirt. "

As early as half a month ago, many Internet companies were exposed to layoffs, and some employees were laid off before they got the year-end award; In the cold winter, some people voluntarily give up the 100,000-year-end bonus and change jobs to find a stable job.

From the outside world, Internet giants are experiencing a cold winter. And layoffs for the winter and the year-end bonus in full swing may be the real side of big factories.

In recent years, at the end of each year, many people have been screened by the year-end award of Dachang.

Time Weekly reporters sorted out public reports and found that the "2021 Momo Online Annual Meeting Guidelines" showed that at the end of last year, Momo’s formal employees each received a year-end bonus package, including the iPhone12 Pro Max 256G; with a market price of 10,099 yuan; Tencent distributed the "Sunshine Award" to employees who made special contributions: 100 shares of the company per person, which was equivalent to more than RMB 60,000 according to Tencent’s share price at that time; ByteDance gave each employee a New Year red envelope of 588-6888 yuan. ……

Earlier in the golden age of the Internet, Baidu CEO Li Yanhong announced at the company’s annual meeting in 2015 that some employees got a 50-month salary for the year-end award. In the same year, some employees of Ali revealed that they got 150,000 year-end bonus and 3,000 shares at the end of the year, which was equivalent to 100 months’ salary at that time.

In the context of downsizing, cost reduction and efficiency improvement of Internet giants this year, the year-end bonus of 1.2 million yuan and 888,888 yuan was concentrated on game projects.

"The game department is the’ spire’ of the year-end awards of major manufacturers in 2021. Revenue is the best in all businesses. Take Tencent as an example. If the game business earns one month, it will be enough for the PCG business group to lose one quarter. " Wang Tao from a first-line factory said. According to several employees of big factories, after consulting the comprehensive ranking of salary and prospect, some big factories default to a pyramid class: the top three layers are game/social platform, investment strategy department and cloud business.

It’s not just the game departments of big factories that are doing well. Feng Hao, an employee of a second-tier game company, told Time Weekly that the games developed by a project team of the company have a monthly flow of over 100 million yuan in South Korea, and the year-end award of the project team is 100 million yuan, which is divided by dozens of people in the group.

In Feng Hao’s view, it is normal for game companies to issue year-end bonuses of tens of months’ salary. "Many game companies not only have year-end awards, but also half-year awards. After all, millions of players have hundreds of people. "

It is understood that the year-end bonus of game company programmers is directly linked to the company’s profits. The most common ones can also get more than a dozen monthly salaries. When the business is closely related to the company’s profit, there will be a high bonus package, and the irreplaceable technology "Daniel" will also have stocks and options as year-end rewards.

"Now the mobile game market is seriously involved, and some games will last for one or two years. Of course, it will be more’ hard’ when the year-end awards are issued." Feng Hao believes that the high profit and high return of game research and development is the reason why it has become the "spire" of the year-end award.

Compared with the stunning year-end awards in the upstream, the temperature in the lower pyramid is much colder.

"The business of to C is getting worse and worse these days, and it is basically less than who loses. I no longer expect the number of year-end awards. " Looking at the business group with thousands of people sharply reduced, an employee of the content department of a big factory expressed his concern to the reporter of Time Weekly.

The employee revealed that the year-end award of his underlying business line is said to be between 0.8 and 4 monthly salaries. According to the average monthly salary of 20,000 yuan in this department, it is about 16,000-80,000 yuan. "The year-end award of the game business is almost ten times that of ours."

"The year-end awards of Internet manufacturers are very polarized, either really fragrant or miserable." Wang Tao told the Times Weekly reporter. He is at the bottom of the pyramid of the internet industry. There are many accidents in the group this year, and the year-end award is only 0.8 months of salary subsidy, which adds up to no more than 20,000.

According to the survey data issued by 36Kr United Kurun Data and Pulse, in 2020, the proportion of Internet practitioners who "have never had a year-end award" reached 8.49%, which is the highest compared with the financial, legal, biochemical and environmental materials industries. Secondly, 25.3% of Internet practitioners have a year-end bonus of more than 10,000 yuan, and 2.9% have a year-end bonus of more than 50,000 yuan. However, at the same time, there are 23.1% people who are lower than 1000 yuan’s year-end bonus, and the gap is very large.

"How to find a way to escape, the water temperature at the bottom is too cold." Since the year-end award won last year was at the bottom of the factory, Wang Tao had the idea of leaving. The data shows that 44.88% of the people in the workplace chose to "strike hard" and quit when the year-end bonus was not in place; Although 17.23% people will not leave their jobs on the spot, they will plant the seeds of dissatisfaction in their hearts and become one of the reasons for job-hopping.

The topic of "job-hopping at the end of the year" has recently rushed to the top of the hot list of workplace social platforms. Among the main reasons for choosing job-hopping at the end of the year, "I hope to get a raise" is the most important reason.

Feng Hao decided to put up with it again.

"The big environment is not ideal, and job-hopping needs to take a lot of risks at this time," Feng Hao said, at least until next spring. "Besides, not every company has a year-end bonus, so we should cherish our current job."

According to the "Investigation Report on White-collar Year-end Awards in 2020" released by Zhaopin, the average national white-collar year-end awards in 2020 is 7826 yuan. Only 29.2% of people have a year-end award of over 10,000 yuan. In other words, getting a year-end award of 10,000 yuan will defeat more than 70% of office workers in the country.

In addition to job-hopping at the end of the year, many people chose to "adjust their posts and climb the slope". Under the invisible class, most employees in large factories want to climb the first three floors of the pyramid through internal post adjustment. The middle-level leaders of Wang Tao’s department even gave up the year-end bonus of several hundred thousand yuan in the original department in order to change to a more promising department.

But is it safe to switch to the "spire"? How long can the year-end award of the big factory that is hot searched every year last? Wang Tao is not sure.

"We used to say that the Internet is to recruit 10 people, do 40 people’s work and pay 20 people’s wages. Now the dividend has gradually disappeared. " Wang Tao believes that it is rare to win the year-end award of 1.2 million in the Internet giant, and more factory workers are still struggling in the cold water at the bottom.

  1.中华文明是中华民族独特的精神标识

  中华文明源远流长、博大精深,是中华民族独特的精神标识,是当代中国文化的根基,是维系全世界华人的精神纽带,也是中国文化创新的宝藏。马克思说,“凡是民族作为民族所做的事情,都是他们为人类社会而做的事情”。在漫长的历史进程中,中华民族以自强不息的决心和意志,筚路蓝缕,跋山涉水,走过了不同于世界其他文明体的发展历程。

  2.中华文明探源工程要重点抓好的工作

  经过几代学者接续努力,中华文明探源工程等重大工程的研究成果,实证了我国百万年的人类史、一万年的文化史、五千多年的文明史。中华文明探源工程成绩显著,但仍然任重而道远,必须继续推进、不断深化。要重点抓好以下几项工作。

  First, strengthen multidisciplinary joint research and promote more achievements in the Chinese civilization source exploration project.

  Second, deepen the study of the characteristics and forms of Chinese civilization and provide theoretical support for the construction of new forms of human civilization.

  Third, promote the creative transformation and innovative development of Chinese excellent traditional culture, and cast a soul for national rejuvenation.

  Fourth, promote exchanges and mutual learning among civilizations and build a community of human destiny.

  Fifth, let more cultural relics and cultural heritage come alive and create a strong social atmosphere for inheriting Chinese civilization.

  3. "Strengthen multi-disciplinary joint research and promote more achievements in the source exploration project of Chinese civilization."

  Exploring the origin and formation of civilization is a complicated and long systematic project. It is necessary to organically combine archaeological exploration and literature research with natural scientific and technological means, comprehensively grasp factors such as material, spiritual and social relations, and gradually restore the development process of civilization from a trickle to a confluence of rivers.

  It is necessary to strengthen overall planning and scientific layout, adhere to multi-discipline, multi-angle, multi-level and all-round, closely tackle the joint problems of archaeology and history, humanities and natural sciences, broaden the scope and coverage of research in time and space, and further answer major questions such as the basic picture of the origin, formation and development of Chinese civilization, the internal mechanism and the evolution path of regional civilizations.

  It is necessary to do a good job in the propaganda, promotion and transformation of China’s "ancient civilization theory" and the research results of the Chinese civilization tracing project, strengthen the research, interpretation and display of unearthed cultural relics and sites, and enhance the influence and appeal of Chinese civilization.

  Shang Dynasty is an important period for the formation and development of China characters. Since the middle and late Shang Dynasty at the latest, the earliest and relatively mature writing system has appeared in China, among which Oracle Bone Inscriptions and bronze inscriptions are the most numerous and of great significance.

  4. "Deepen the study of the characteristics and forms of Chinese civilization and provide theoretical support for the construction of a new form of human civilization."

  It is necessary to closely combine the study of the origin of Chinese civilization with the study of major issues such as the characteristics and forms of Chinese civilization, thoroughly study and explain the development direction of the Chinese nation community and the evolution pattern of the Chinese nation’s pluralism, and study and explain the spiritual characteristics and development forms of Chinese civilization, such as caring, attaching importance to the people, keeping integrity, worshiping justice, respecting harmony and seeking harmony, and clarifying the profound cultural heritage of China Road.

  We can’t totally deny Chinese traditional culture. We should persist in making the past serve the present, bring forth the old and bring forth the new, and inherit and carry forward its excellent elements.

  It is necessary to establish the discipline system, academic system and discourse system of civilization research with China characteristics, China style and China style, so as to provide strong theoretical support for the practice of new forms of human civilization.

  5. "Promote the creative transformation and innovative development of Chinese excellent traditional culture, and build a soul for national rejuvenation."

  We insist on combining the basic principles of Marxism with the concrete reality of China and the excellent traditional Chinese culture, constantly promoting the modernization of Marxism in China, and promoting the creative transformation and innovative development of the excellent traditional Chinese culture.

  We should persist in upholding integrity and innovation, promote the adaptation of Chinese excellent traditional culture to socialist society, display the unique spiritual identity of the Chinese nation, and better build the spirit of China, the value of China and China’s strength.

  In the process of promoting the creative transformation and innovative development of Chinese excellent traditional culture, we should adhere to the fundamental guiding ideology of Marxism, inherit and carry forward revolutionary culture, develop advanced socialist culture, and seek the source of living water from Chinese excellent traditional culture. We should make full use of the research results such as the Chinese civilization tracing project, tell the ancient history of China more completely and accurately, and give full play to the role of educating people with history.

  Dunhuang culture has lasted for nearly two thousand years. It is the largest, longest-lasting, richest and most complete art treasure house in the world, a bright pearl in the long river of world civilization, and a precious historical material for studying the politics, economy, military, culture and art of ancient Chinese nationalities. The picture shows the mural painting "Rebound Pipa Music and Dance" on the south wall of Cave 112 in Mogao Grottoes. Photo courtesy of Dunhuang Research Institute

  6. "Promote exchanges and mutual learning among civilizations and build a community of human destiny"

  We should persist in carrying forward the civilization concept of equality, mutual learning, dialogue and tolerance, understand the understanding of different civilizations on the value connotation with a broad mind, respect the people of different countries’ exploration of their own development paths, transcend the gap between civilizations through civilized exchange, transcend the clash of civilizations through mutual learning of civilizations, transcend the superiority of civilizations through the coexistence of civilizations, and carry forward the common values of all mankind contained in Chinese civilization.

  We should base ourselves on China, tell the story of Chinese civilization well, and show the world a credible, lovely and respectable image of China. We should make it clear what kind of civilization and country China is, Chinese’s world view, world view, social view and moral view, show the long history and humanistic details of Chinese civilization, and make the world understand China, China people, the Communist Party of China (CPC) and the Chinese nation.

  7. "Let more cultural relics and cultural heritage come alive and create a strong social atmosphere for inheriting Chinese civilization."

  We should actively promote the protection and utilization of cultural relics and the protection and inheritance of cultural heritage, tap the multiple values of cultural relics and cultural heritage, and spread more value symbols and cultural products bearing Chinese culture and China spirit.

  Leading cadres at all levels should respect history and excellent traditional culture, attach importance to the protection and utilization of cultural relics and the protection and inheritance of cultural heritage, and provide more policy support for historical and archaeological workers to carry out research, further study and exchange.

  It is necessary to create a strong social atmosphere for inheriting Chinese civilization, widely publicize the research results such as the Chinese civilization tracing project, educate and guide the masses, especially young people, to better understand and identify with Chinese civilization, and enhance their ambition, backbone and confidence to be Chinese.

Can plants really cause cancer? These three "carcinogenic plants" can be safely raised as long as they are not eaten.

  In recent years, I have often met some friends who sent me some pictures of potted plants, saying that I suddenly saw on the Internet that they were carcinogenic plants, but I happened to have them at home. I am very worried. Do you want to throw them away? Some micro-friends even sent links to articles, such as "Don’t leave these 52 kinds of cancer-causing plants at home", "Please stay away from these cancer-causing plants" and "80 kinds of common toxic or cancer-causing plants" … What’s more, it is said that a couple of flower farmers who have been planting flowers for a long time in Foshan City have suffered from nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

  For a time, flower friends talked about the change of colors, "expelling the culprit of cancer" and "cleaning up the door", which meant that these plants were wiped out. In fact, is this really the case?

  The statement comes from a paper nearly 30 years ago.

  It is understood that this statement originated from a paper "Screening of Chinese Herbs and Plants Inducing Early Antigen Expression of Epstein—Barr Virus" by Academician Ceng Yi from Institute of Virology, Chinese Academy of Preventive Sciences. According to the article, "1693 species of plants (Raji cells with EB virus as experimental objects) were screened, and 52 of them were found to have the effect of inducing the early antigen expression of EB virus". And these 52 plants happen to be the "52 carcinogenic plants" transmitted by the Internet.

  This paper was first published in 1992, almost 30 years later. The news of cancer-causing plants still appears in tabloids, Weibo and friends circle from time to time, and is often mentioned by people. Let the flower growers tread on thin ice, and create many unjust, false and wrong cases of flowers and plants.

  Epstein-Barr virus is a virus isolated from people with lymphoma. 90%-95% people have been infected by this virus, but most of the time it will not affect human health. Only under the external stimulation, EB virus will suddenly "wake up" and start to replicate in large numbers, which will make the signal pathway controlling normal differentiation and proliferation in cells abnormal, thus causing cancer. Horribly, the activity of EB virus will promote other carcinogenic viruses (such as SV40 virus) to start activities.

  It is found that the secondary metabolites produced by some plants can activate EB virus, make it wake up and become an active replication state, so these secondary metabolites are called "cancer-promoting" substances. For example, croton oil extracted from croton seeds has a strong ability to induce early antigens of EB virus.

  However, it can be seen from the above description that plants themselves do not produce EB virus, and even some cancer-promoting substances released into the soil through fallen leaves or roots are only accomplices, not masterminds, in causing cancer. Therefore, the statement that these plants "contain carcinogenic viruses" on the Internet is groundless and a misunderstanding of scientific papers.

  Plants containing cancer-promoting substances can still be domesticated.

  Can 52 kinds of plants containing cancer-promoting substances detected by academicians still be raised in their own homes? This is probably what all flower lovers are eager to know.

  The answer is, of course, yes. These plants, if you don’t eat them and maintain them normally at home, will not cause harm to the human body.

  If these chemical cancer-promoting substances in plants are taken out and identified, they are just secondary metabolites of plants, and they are a large number of chemical synthetic products with complex structures that are not directly involved in plant growth and development. Plants use these compounds to improve the body’s ability to resist the invasion of the external environment, such as driving away hateful pests, transmitting useful information between plants, dealing with diseases and various unfavorable factors in the surrounding environment, and attracting "matchmakers" or "bodyguards" who help themselves pollinate …

  Human beings are no strangers to the secondary metabolic "products" of plants, such as rubber, spices, essential oils and so on. The content of these secondary products in plants is not high. Most of the time, they stay quietly in plants and are released only when plants are in danger or their limbs are damaged. Only when these products enter the intruder’s body will they have the effect of poisoning or driving away; For flower growers, only when they enter the human body can they induce cancer.

  Emphasize that it only induces cancer and promotes cancer, but it is not carcinogenic.

  Some people may ask, I usually don’t eat potted flowers or move potted flowers, so will the secondary metabolites in these potted flowers float in the room in the form of gas, thus promoting cancer?

  "It’s all hooliganism to talk about toxicity regardless of dosage". Generally speaking, the secondary substances in plant defense system have large molecular weight and poor volatility. Unlike esters and alkanes which are easy to volatilize in plants, they are mostly water-soluble secondary substances, and almost lose their volatilization ability in plants with high water content. The dose that can be volatilized into indoor air is very small, and they pose a cancer threat to people, even less than smoking a cigarette and breathing automobile exhaust.

  In the book "Volatile Gases from Plants and Human Health and Safety", the volatile components of Rosa davurica, one of the "52 Carcinogenic Plants", were detected. The results showed that no cancer-promoting components were detected in its volatile components. Therefore, flower friends only need to know the properties of these plants and the characteristics of toxins in their bodies, and they can coexist peacefully with these plants without any burden without touching or eating them.

  illustrate

  Three so-called "carcinogenic plants"

  As long as you don’t eat, you can rest assured.

  Let’s find out three so-called "cancer-causing plants" that are common indoors in northern China for the time being, and here we will break them down one by one.

  dripping guanyin

  Drip Guanyin is very suitable for keeping indoors. Staggered leaves, shaped like cattail fans, protrude from the base of brown leaves wrapped in layers, giving off a shiny luster. Drip Guanyin is resistant to shade, and its huge leaf surface can absorb dust and toxic gases in the air. Watered enough water the night before, and got up the next day to observe the leaves. There must be glittering and translucent "water drops" hanging on the tip of the leaves. That is, use toilet paper to absorb the water droplets on the tip of the leaf, and in a short time, a "pearl" will be hung on this part.

  This is because the dripping Guanyin, which originated from the bottom of the tropical rain forest, can "sweat" like a human being. When it feels hot and humid, and there is too much water in its body, it will excrete the water together with the toxin alkali secreted by pests through its own catheter, and condense it into "water droplets" at the tip of the leaf. This water drop is actually the secret weapon of dripping Guanyin. Small insects that come here for food will be doomed if they drink this honey dew as dew or accidentally touch it. Drinking "honey dew" will make small animals’ mouths red and swollen or suffocate because of heart paralysis; Once the honey dew touches the skin, the skin immediately itches and swells; If the eyes touch the "water drops", it will cause severe conjunctivitis and even blindness … People accidentally touch it, and it is the same symptom. It is also reported that some people saw that the massive stem of Drip Guanyin was very white, a bit like a potato and watery, so they couldn’t help licking it and wanted to taste the juice inside. I didn’t expect this lick to bring disaster-swollen lips, sore throat and numb tongue.

  In fact, in plants, it is very common that the roots and leaves of plants contain toxins. The dripping Guanyin belongs to Araceae, and most of the plants in this family are poisonous, such as tortoise-back bamboo, evergreen and green radish.

  crown of thorns

  Red flowers, rising slowly from the hard and pointed cone thorns, are delicate, charming and graceful. During the Spring Festival, the blooming Rosa davurica will add a lot of spring scenery to the living room, which is also the reason why northerners love Rosa davurica. It is not afraid of drought, waterlogging, shade and sun, and it is very easy to feed.

  Its vitality is super strong: if you don’t water it for half a year, you won’t get the sun, but you can live in a decent way, and the cute little buds with pink branches will bloom again. Even if you cut a branch and let it lie on the ground, you can grow roots, and green buds will burst out on the branch.

  Rosa davurica, also known as begonia, is a member of Euphorbia in Euphorbiaceae. Euphorbia plants have a common feature: white milk will be secreted from the wound after the plant is injured. This kind of milk is a diterpenoid compound with special structure, which is toxic. This is also a "sharp weapon" for such plants to protect themselves and prevent pests and diseases from invading during the evolution process. The white milk secreted by the "wound" of Rosa davurica also stimulates human skin and mucous membrane. Eating it by mistake will cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and dizziness.

  iris

  Iris, which we often say, is not a plant, but a general term for iris plants. Its German Iris, Iris, Iris and Cynthia are all called Iris in principle.

  Iris plants have bright and beautiful colors. The Latin name iris comes from Greek and is the name of Iriz, the goddess of the rainbow. It can be seen that the colors of iris plants are as colorful as rainbows. It is common to have two or three colors on a flower, which is the eternal darling of horticulture. According to the internet, the rhizome of iris can be used as emetic and cathartic, and can also be used as medicine to treat dizziness and toxic swelling. Eating its flowers, leaves and roots will cause gastrointestinal congestion and severe diarrhea.

  As can be seen from the above examples, whether these plants cause cancer depends on whether you eat them or want to grow them in flowerpots for viewing. If it is only the latter, you can raise these plants with peace of mind. According to some data, 97% of the 368 kinds of flowers planted at home are beneficial to human health. Of course, we have to emphasize the four basic principles of peaceful coexistence with domestic plants-no matter what flowers are raised at home, don’t import them; Try to avoid zero-distance contact with plant secretions; Wash your hands after handling plants; Open the doors and windows to let the air circulate.
