The cuisine features a wide range of materials，different cooking techniques and numerous tastes. With a rich variety of strong flavors，Sichuan food is famous for its countless dishes with peppery，chili flavors，and best known for being spicy-hot. 　1　，then you are probably not eating the real Sichuan cuisine. Chili peppers and Chinese prickly ash（花椒）are used in many dishes，giving them a typically spicy taste. 　2　. Thanks to the development of global trade，chili peppers were spread to Sichuan by Americans in the 18th century，which greatly influenced the flavor of Sichuan dishes. 　　　3　，Hunan cuisine is famous for its spiciness. People may be confused that what the difference is between Hunan cuisine and Sichuan cuisine，for the characteristics of them are hot and spicy. Hunan cuisine mainly originates from Dongting Lake area and western Hunan mountain area. Water food and poultry are main cooking materials of Dongting Lake area cuisine，which taste salty and spicy. However，many kinds of meat are the main cooking materials of western Hunan mountain area cuisine. 　4　. 　　The cooking skills employed in the Hunan cuisine reached a high standard as early as the Western Han Dynasty，giving it a history of more than 2，100 years. Hunan is located in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River and south of Lake Dongting（hence the name Hunan means “south of the lake”）. It contains rivers，lakes，mountains，rolling hills，plains，and pools. 　5　. A. If you find Sichuan dishes too mild B. If you are not fond of Sichuan dishes C. The tastes are salted，fresh，spicy and sour D. As one of the eight major cuisines of China E. It often leaves a slight numb（麻木的）feeling in the mouth F. Many people want to know the differences between Sichuan cuisine and Hunan cuisine G. Making full use of these rich resources，local people created a wide variety of dishes 六、阅读理解 Chinese cuisine is widely known and enjoyed all around the world. Who doesn't long for a favorite Chinese dish? But there is one interesting concept concerning 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 food".     Tonic food is food which is consumed to improve one's well-being or avoid sickness. For instance, it was once the custom for new mothers to eat a sesame oil(麻油) chicken soup every day for the first month after giving birth. It was believed that this dish would benefit the muscles, reduce pain, improve circulation, stimulate sweating, and warm the body. Some foods, such as goat meat and spinach, are seen as "hot", while others, such as Chinese cabbage and radishes, 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 the year, how the food is prepared and what it is prepared with, and the individual's health.     The custom of employing tonic food for a healthier life also influences the catering industry. Chinese herbal medicines, such as wolfberry(枸杞子), can be found on many a restaurant menu, either added to fruit tea or as a beneficial addition to a dish. These herbs attract customers, such as overworked office staff, in need of a modest pick-me-up.     So, whether you need to boost your strength with a large helping of chicken soup, or increase your mental powers with a serving of fish soup, you may find that this ancient Chinese custom could be just the tonic you were looking for. 1.What is the present situation of tonic food? A.It is catching less attention. B.It is enjoyed by many young people. C.It is well-known worldwide. D.It is becoming increasingly popular. 2.What is believed to benefit new mothers? A.Chinese cabbage. B.Fruit tea. C.Sesame oil chicken soup. D.Fish soup. 3.Which of the following best explains "catering" underlined in Paragraph 3? A.Medicine. B.Restaurant. C.Manufacture. D.Agriculture. 4.What can be a suitable title for the text? A.The Charm of Chinese Cuisine B.The Popularity of Tonic Food C.An Introduction of Chinese Tonic Food D.Differences Between "Hot" Food and "Cold" Food 七、七选五 Using Healthy Cooking Methods Is Important     Eating healthier meals is a big part of taking good care of yourself and your family, but eating healthier meals doesn't mean you have to give up your favorite food. ___1__     Boil vegetables and meats without using any oils or fats. __2___ It's not only healthier than using lots of fats, but also it keeps the nutrients of the foods. All you need to boil food is a large pot, water, and a little bit of salt.

Simply bring a pot of water to the boil. __3___ Add your food to the basket. Add some salt or lemon juice to your steamed vegetables or fish for some extra flavor.     ___4__ Barbecue is great from a certain point of view because it makes your meat soft and tasty while also letting the fat drip away from it, which is healthier for you. It also passes on a nice flavor to meats and vegetables. You can roast steak and chicken, as well as vegetables, like potatoes, peppers, onions, and even lettuce.     Try eating raw foods to avoid losing any nutrients through cooking. Focus on eating uncooked foods. __5___ Eating only raw foods isn't recommended for children or women who are pregnant. A.Place your steam basket on top. B.Roast meats and vegetables for less fat. C.Fruit and vegetables are good for health. D.Boiling is a simple and healthy way to cook. E.Fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds can be eaten uncooked.
