Have you ever tried this delicious dessert? Black Forest gateau was first made in Bad Goldesberg, Germany. It was given its name because the liquor (液体/酒) used in the cake is from the Black Forest area. A man called Josef Keller invented (发明) the cake. He decided to mix cream, cherries and schnapps (樱桃和杜松子酒), the famous liquor, into a cake. He first sold the cake in a small cafe where he worked in 1915. The original recipe (原始配方) and the Black Forest area are both well known for this cake. Even 102 years have passed, this delicious gateau is still very popular, and it is the area’s most famous export (输出品) and the most ordered sweet in cafes and restaurants. Black Forest gateau is made with layers of chocolate sponge cake(多层巧克力海绵状蛋糕) and is decorated with whipped cream(鲜奶油) and black cherries between the layers and on top of the cake. It is a high calorie dessert(高热量点心), but more and more people are ordering the cake each year. It is so popular that every two years there is a cherry gateau festival in Todtnauberg, where local pastry chefs (点心师) teach tourists from around the world how to turn the local ingredients (原料) into a wonderful Black Forest gateau.

The first record(记录) of a kite was more than 2000 years ago in China. Han Xin, the leader of an army, wanted to bring down (打倒)a king. He decided to dig a tunnel(隧道) into the king’s palace. He flew a kite over the wall of the palace to make sure the length of its string(线的长度). In this way, he could determine how long the tunnel should be. His men in the tunnel took the kite string with them. When they reached the end of the string, they knew to dig up. Kites have been flown in Japan for hundreds of years. In the 1700s, kites were flown in autumn to give thanks for a good harvest. They were also flown to send good wishes to couples(夫妻) who had their first son. Today in Japan, kites are often flown as part of a celebration, such as the beginning of a new year. And kite festivals are held each year in many parts of the country. Kites have been used for scientific purposes(科学目的) in the Western world. In 1752, Benjamin Franklin tied a key to a kite and flew it in a storm to find out that lightning was a form of electricity. In the 1890s, Lawrence Hargrave invented the box kite to test ideas about flight. From 1898 until 1933, the United States Weather Bureau used box kites to collect weather data. The Wright brothers also experimented(做实验) with kites. What they learnt helped them make the first airplane flight in 1903. ( )1. Why did Han Xin want to dig a tunnel? A. To pull down the palace. B.
