本文是一篇记叙文。作者通过记述自己亲临现场的体验,向读者介绍了法国著名的“巨型煎蛋节”。 24. 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“France...celebrating everything from lemons in Menton to the pink onions of Roscoff”和“a grand skill show”可知,法国人擅长举办各种美食节。 25. 词义猜测题。根据“One needs to know how many eggs...as you add your fillings.”可知,要做好巨型煎蛋,各方面要拿捏得恰到好处,故此处指的是法国人以高超的“烹饪技术”著称。 26. 写作意图题。根据第三段中的“From this legend,it became a tradition”可知,文章提到拿破仑是为了介绍“巨型煎蛋节”的起源。 27. 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“I donˈt have high hopes...but the giant frying pan is empty”可知,作者认为巨型煎蛋很美味。 28~31. 【语篇解读】

31. 标题归纳题。通读全文内容可知。文章主要介绍了家常菜在移民者生活中的核心作用、特点和一位著名的家庭厨师做中国菜,并提到如果想在美国品尝到丰盛的中国菜建议去家庭厨房。因此,本文主要是讲家常菜给餐桌带来更多味道。 32~35. 语篇解读  本文是说明文，主要介绍了英国推出的一些电视烹饪节目使更多的英国人改变食用快餐的习惯而对烹饪产生兴趣。 32. 细节理解题。根据第一段中“But is British food really so uninteresting...less-than-impressive cuisine”可知，人们通常认为英国食物不太让人感兴趣，给人的印象不那么深刻，即简单和普通。故选A。 33. 推理判断题。根据第二段中“thanks to these TV chefs”“becoming more adventurous”“change or improve their cooking in some way”以及“a rise in the number of students applying for food courses”可知，本段说明烹饪节目对英国人产生了各种影响。根据本段最后一句中的“helped change what people think about

know与该空后的Do you know为原词复现关系,且E项中的thousands of years old与该空前的long history相呼应。 37. 该空与上一句为顺序关系。根据该空前的“They made a spicy drink”可知,一开始这种巧克力饮品是辣的,B项“然后他们加入了辣椒和水。”符合此处的语境,B项中的chili

Meatopia This three-day,London-based festival takes place at the end of August or in early September and is a meat loverˈs paradise.In addition to a range of legally sourced meat products,from juicy burgers to tender steaks,attendees can listen to live music,watch butchery demonstrations,and attend informal meat-based workshops. The National Honey Show If you have a sweet tooth,the National Honey Show,which started in 1923,may be the place for you.This three-day event attracts many local participants who showcase their sweet golden honey,some of which is sold globally. The Orange Sauce Festival Have you heard about a festival that is devoted only to orange sauce? Held in Cumbria,this sweet,fragrant festival has been running for many years.What attracts people most is a competition to find the best homemade orange sauce.There are thousands of participants from over 30 different countries across the globe,bringing their local snacks to share here. The Ginger (姜) and Spice Festival If youˈd prefer something with a little more kick,then you could attend the Ginger and Spice Festival held in Market Drayton.Unlike other food festivals,it celebrates its townˈs historic connection to Robert Clive,who returned from India with ginger.Because of this,people here specialize in baking gingerbread,and sell a range of traditional spices from mild ones to hot ones. 21.What do Meatopia and the National Honey Show have in common? A. Both of them have a long history. B. Both of them hold workshops. C. Both of them originated from London. D. They are of the same duration. 22.If you are interested in foreign food, which festival do you like best? A. The Meatopia. B. The Ginger and Spice Festival. C. The National Honey Show. D. The Orange Sauce Festival. 23.What is special about The Ginger and Spice Festival? A. It sells spicy food. B. The ginger used in the festival is from India. C. It has something to do with a historic figure. D. The food is cooked by Robert Clive. B France has a good line in food festivals, celebrating everything from lemons in Menton to the pink onions of Roscoff. Yet few can rival (匹敌) Bessieresˈ Giant Omelette Celebration for ambition. This three-day event combines dinners, Easter egg hunts,parades and performances with a grand skill show: the cooking of a huge, 15,000-egg omelette (煎蛋),big enough to feed 2,000 locals and visitors. By the time I arrive,about 100 volunteers,all dressed in yellow and white,gather around a long table and begin cracking eggs into large bowls.There is,however,a certain skill required when making an omelette—one of those easy-to-make,hard-to-master type deals.One needs to know how many eggs are needed and how to keep it from tearing as you add your fillings.To the French,who we know as the great masters of culinary art,the folded egg dish is more than just a breakfast;in fact,it has historical meaning to them. I ask a member of the organisers about the legend of the festivalˈs origin.It describes an occasion when French military hero Napoleon and his men were travelling through Southern France,they rested for the night near the town of Bessieres.While there,Napoleon enjoyed an omelette from a local innkeeper.The dish was such a delight that Napoleon custom-ordered an enormous omelette created from all the villageˈs eggs to feed his men.From this legend,it became a tradition to recreate that omelette to feed the poor of the villages at Easter. It takes around half an hour for the omelette to cook.The volunteers serve it on 6,000 paper plates,which are efficiently distributed (分发),along with wooden forks,to the visitors gathered around the square.I admit,I donˈt have high hopes about the actual taste of a dish made on this scale (规模),but when I take my first bite,Iˈm proved wrong.Iˈd happily ask for seconds,but the giant frying pan (平底煎锅) is empty. 24.What can we infer about the French from paragraph 1? A. They are highly ambitious. B. They are good at holding food festivals. C. They are proud of their history and culture. D. They enjoy watching plays and performances. 25.What does the underlined part “culinary art” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Fashion sense. B. Tailoring skills. C. Political strategy. D. Cooking techniques. 26.Why is Napoleon mentioned in the text? A. To praise his art of leading soldiers. B. To introduce the origin of the festival. C. To explain how war shaped peopleˈs lives. D. To emphasise his influence on French tastes. 27.What does the author think of the omelette? A. It tastes delicious. B. It takes little time to cook. C. It should be efficiently distributed. D. It should be made on a larger scale. C When you think of Chinese food in the US,fried rice,or General Tsoˈs chicken may first come to mind.But a new museum exhibition in New York City is trying to expand visitorsˈ palates (味觉).It features stories of famous cooks like Martin Yan and home cooks whose food represents 18 different regional cooking styles of China. “I think itˈs unfair to just classify Chinese cooking as one,” says Kian Lam Kho,a co-curator (联合策展人) of “Sour,Sweet,Bitter,Spicy:Stories of Chinese Food and Identity in America” at the Museum of Chinese in America.Even with the same dish or same cuisine,every family has a different variation.Thatˈs why the curators say if you want to taste the full range of Chinese cuisine in the US,youˈll need to go beyond restaurants and into home kitchens,which can play a central role in many immigrantsˈ lives. “The kitchen itself is kind of a comfort when you come to a new country.Thatˈs the one place which you set up as your home base,and you cook things that you remember from your past,” explains co-curator Audra Ang. One of the home cooks showcased in the exhibition is Ni Biying,80,of Manhattan.She worked as a live-in babysitter for years before she could finally afford to rent a home with her own kitchen.These days,you can usually find her moving around her one-bedroom apartment as a sweet smell of vinegar and rice wine floats from her stove.For Ni,a small dinner for friends and family means preparing almost a dozen different dishes.She learned some of her techniques from her father,who made most of her familyˈs meals when she was a child.“I still make the beef with stir-fried celery my father used to cook,” she says.And itˈs the kind of comfort food that defines Chinese food for Ni. 28.What is the new museum exhibition mainly about? A. Stories of Chinese food and cooks. B. Exploration of famous restaurants. C. History of Chinese immigration. D. Cuisine of different countries. 29.Why does the kitchen play a key role in many immigrantsˈ lives? A. It provides a wealthy life. B. It helps them to accept new cultures. C. It brings a sense of belonging. D. It enables them to forget the past. 30.What can we learn about Ni Biying from Paragraph 4? A. She worked in a Chinese restaurant. B. She made most meals as a child. C. She learned cooking from her father. D. She lives with a big family. 31.What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Chinese Restaurant Tells Immigrant Tales B. Home Cooking Brings More to the Table C. Immigrants Seek Their Fortune in the US D. Cuisine Gains New Variations D What comes into your mind when you think of British food? Probably fish and chips, or a Sunday dinner of meat and two vegetables. But is British food really so uninteresting? Even though Britain has a reputation for less-than-impressive cuisine, it is producing more top class chefs who appear frequently on our television screens and whose recipe books frequently top the best seller lists. Itˈs thanks to these TV chefs rather than any advertising campaign that Britons are turning away from meat-and-two-veg and ready-made meals and becoming more adventurous in their cooking habits.It is recently reported that the number of those sticking to a traditional diet is slowly declining and around half of Britainˈs consumers would like to change or improve their cooking in some way.There has been a rise in the number of students applying for food courses at UK universities and colleges.It seems that TV programmes have helped change what people think about cooking. According to a new study from market analysts,1 in 5 Britons say that watching cookery programmes on TV has encouraged them to try different food.Almost one third say they now use a wider variety of ingredients (配料) than they used to,and just under 1 in 4 say they now buy better quality ingredients than before.One in four adults say that TV chefs have made them much more confident about expanding their cookery knowledge and skills,and young people are also getting more interested in cooking.The UKˈs obsession (痴迷) with food is reflected through television scheduling.Cookery shows and documentaries about food are broadcast more often than before.With an increasing number of male chefs on TV,itˈs no longer “uncool” for boys to like cooking. 32.What do people usually think of British food? A. It is simple and plain. B. It is rich in nutrition. C. It lacks authentic tastes. D. It deserves a high reputation. 33.Which best describes cookery programmes on British TV? A. Authoritative. B. Creative. C. Profitable. D. Influential. 34.Which is the percentage of the people using more diverse ingredients now? A. 20%. B. 24%. C. 25%. D. 33%. 35.What might the author continue talking about? A. The art of cooking in other countries. B. Male chefs on TV programmes. C. Table manners in the UK. D. Studies of big eaters. 四、阅读七选五：本大题共5小题，每题2.5分，满分12.5分。 Some of our favorite foods have a long history.   (36)  Do you know who invented potato chips,or where chocolate was discovered? Chocolate The native people of Central America invented chocolate about 2,000 years ago.They made a spicy drink from the seeds (种子) of the cacao tree.First they dried the cacao seeds and crushed (压碎) them to make a paste (糊状物).   (37)  The chocolate drink wasnˈt sweet—it was bitter (苦的)!Spanish explorers learned about chocolate when they arrived in America,and it soon became a popular drink all over Europe. Popcorn People started growing corn for food about 8,000 years ago in Central America.   (38)  They ate it fresh or they used it to make bread and soups. Native Americans made popcorn by cooking the corn over a fire. People enjoyed eating the hot popcorn. They also used it to make decorations and popcorn necklaces! Ice Cream About 2,000 years ago the Ancient Romans brought ice and snow from the mountains and mixed it with fruit and honey. Then people started to add cream.They put the cream in a metal bowl with sugar.Then they froze it in a bucket of ice.   (39)  In 1843,Nancy Johnson invented the first ice cream machine as a way to solve the problem. Potato Chips In 1853, George Crum was a cook in a restaurant. One day,a customer said he didnˈt like Georgeˈs French fries. He said they were too thick!   (40)  He made some French fries that were very thin,like paper.The customer loved them!George called them Saratoga Chips.In 1860 George opened a new restaurant and his chips became famous all over the USA.
