Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
I will never forget the first dessert class at a cooking school in France, where a group of anxious dessert students (myself included) were tasked with preparing an apple pie.It looked simple enough, but I soon realized that it wasn't quite as simple as I thought it would be.However, my knife mastered this French classic, as well as dozens of others.
After graduating, I found a job at a modern American restaurant in Florida.Despite the restaurant's tiny kitchen, I was excited to work under Sylvia, the executive chef.The first job she gave me was to make apple pies.I couldn't have been more excited—until I realized these pies were actually in the form of a dumpling.But my education had made me stick to French tradition.It took me a minute to get comfortable with this way of cooking again.Slowly, I was forgetting my French tradition and beginning to go with the flow more.The response(反应)from diners was good.Our desserts were sold out on most days.
Then one day, chef Sylvia gave me the chance to make a new dessert and planned to add it to the menu for a week.Surprised and touched by the chance, I decided to go all out.I created a seasonal citrus mousse made with Florida oranges and pistachio croquant(a crisp, delicate cookie).But after a week, the apple pie dumplings continued to far outsell my special dessert.A sense of frustration went inside of me.
It finally made me aware that there isn't one “right”way to understand a dish, or set of ingredients(食材).Where one chef can look at apples, butter, and flour and see a French apple pie, another might see baked apple dumplings.Even though each person's translation may be different, I think they all deserve a spot on the table.And that was the most important lesson I discovered, through something as seemingly simple as fruit and dough.

Chinese cuisine is widely known and enjoyed in the world.But there is one interesting idea of Chinese food which is almost unheard of in the West, and which is becoming increasingly ignored by the youth of the East—the ancient custom of “tonic (滋补)food”.
Tonic food is food which is to improve one's wellbeing particularly at times when one is more likely to fall ill.For example,it was once the custom for new mothers to eat sesameoil chicken soup every day for the first month after giving birth.It was believed that this dish would be helpful in reducing pain,improving circulation (血液循环),and warming the body.Some foods,such as goat meat and ginger,are seen as “hot”,while others,such as Chinese cabbage and radish,are seen as “cold”.One should be careful not to eat too much of either“hot” or “cold” food.However,how much“hot” or “cold”food one should eat depends on the time of year,how the food is prepared and what it is prepared with,and the individual's health.
The custom of using tonic food for a healthier life also influences the catering industry.Traditional Chinese medicines,such as the wolfberry (枸杞子),can be found on the menus of restaurants,either added to fruit tea or as an addition to a dish.They attract customers, such as overworked office staff,who are in need of a modest pickmeup.
So,whether you need to build up your strength with a large helping of chicken soup,or increase your mental powers with a serving of fish soup,you may find that the ancient Chinese custom can be just the tonic food you are looking for.
