Ⅰ. 完形填空
When I first arrived in China, I knew little Chinese. And some of the Chinese words I . .1. . had something to do with food. I learned the names of a few dishes, but still didn't know most of the things I saw on Chinese restaurant menus. Luckily, there were . .2. . to help me.
Nearly every restaurant menu in China has pictures of food . .3. . it. But many restaurants I've been to in the US don’t. What is the . .4. . for the difference?

One thing I’ve definitely(明确地) . .5. . about China is that food is a bigger part of their culture than it is in the US. A common way to . .6. . someone in China is to ask them if they’ve eaten yet. Food is just a bigger deal here—and having pictures of food in menus is part of that. Some menus are almost like works of art, with beautiful photos.
Another thing is the . .7. . of the dishes. Chinese dishes sometimes have fanciful(别出心裁的) names like “palace guard chicken” or “three fresh things from the soil”. These are interesting names, but they don't really tell you . .8. . the dishes are like.
Therefore, it’s . .9. . to have pictures so you can actually see what you are going to eat. There are . .10. . even more reasons. All I know is that I was very thankful to have those picture menus when I first came to China years ago.
