What do a student in China,an office worker
in the UK and an astronaut in space all have in
common?They all eat instant noodles.And they're
not alone-over 100 billion servings of instant noo-
dles are consumed globally each year,making
them one of the world's most successful industri-
al foods.But how did this happen?
Put simply,they're cheap to produce and
cheap to buy,which was exactly what their crea-
tor intended to achieve.Momofuku Ando,an en-
trepreneur,spent a year perfecting the recipe just
after the Second World War.He wanted to make
something similar to traditional noodles.His cre-
ation was instantly popular,playing a part in the
post war economic rise.Even in the year 2000-
according to a poll by the Fuji Research Institute-in-
stant noodles were voted the most successful in-
vention,ahead of high speed trains,laptops and
karaoke.
According to the World's Instant Noodles
Association,China,Indonesia,Vietnam and In-
dia-in that order-all consumed more instant
noodles than before in 2021.Instant noodles'
popularity abroad is in part due to how easy they
are to adapt to local tastes.In Thailand,for ex-
ample,you can get green curry flavour,while in
Mexico the noodles are garnished(加饰菜)with
lime and salsa.And it seems that consumers have
grown to expect innovation.Nissin,the food
company founded by Ando,launches over 300
products yearly,according to employee Kasura
Suzuki.
Instant noodles have their critics,too.Their
rise in popularity has come at an environmental
cost-they're made with palm oil,contributing to
deforestation,and their packaging is plastic.And
while they are a hot,tasty and filling meal,in-
stant noodles don't have much nutritional value,
and include high levels of salt and fat.Neverthe-
less,instant noodles are undoubtedly lifesavers in
emergency or extreme situations.
More than 60 years after their invention,in-
stant noodles have become the default food for
anyone short on money,time,or even a kitchen.

么共同点?他们都吃方便面。他们并不是唯一
的—超过1000亿份方便面就是这样每年在
全球范围内被消费,使其成为世界上最成功的

C.To earn more profit.
D.To make them low-cost and affordable.

实现的目标。)”可知,发明方便面的最初目的是
为了使它们成本低,价格实惠。]
6.What does Paragraph 3 mainly tell us about in-
stant noodles?
A.Their worldwide popularity.
B.Their major contribution.
C.Their consumers'preferences.
D.Their innovative features.
解析:A[主旨大意题。根据文章第三段“In
stant noodles'popularity abroad is in part due
to how easy they are to adapt to local tastes.
(方便面在国外受欢迎的部分原因是它们很容
易适应当地的口味。)”及下文举例“In Thai
land,for example,you can get...by Ando,
launches over 300 products yearly,according

7.What is the best explanation for "the default
food"in the last paragraph?
A.The preferred food.
B.The most delicious food.
C.The cheapest food.
D.The most nutritious food.
解析:A[词义猜测题。根据最后一段划线词

even a kitchen(给那些缺钱,缺时间,甚至缺厨
房的人)”及上文第二段“Put simply,they're
cheap to produce and cheap to buy,which was
exactly what their creator intended to achieve."
第三段“Instant noodles'popularity abroad is in
part due to how easy they are to adapt to local
tastes.”讲的方便面的好处可知,方便面应为具
备这些条件的人的首选食品,the default food
与the preferred food意思相近,表示“优选食品”]
Ⅱ.阅读七选五
体裁:说明文
People express their personalities in their
clothes,their cars,and their homes.Because we
might choose certain foods to "tell"people some-
thing about us,our diets can also be an expres-
sion of our personalities.For example,some
people eat mainly gourmet foods,such as caviar
(鱼子酱)and lobster(龙虾),and they eat only
in expensive restaurants.1
Human beings can eat many different kinds of
foods,but some people choose not to eat meat.
2 Their personalities might be similar too.
For example,vegetarians in the United States
and Canada may be creative people,and they
might not enjoy competitive sports or jobs.They
worry about the health of the world,and they are
probably strongly opposed to war.
3 One study shows that many fast food
eaters have a lot in common with one another,
but they are very different from vegetarians.They are
competitive and good at business.4 Many
fast food eaters might not agree with this descrip-
tion of their personalities,but it is common pic-
ture of them.
Some people also believe that people of the
same astrological sign(星座)have similar food
personalities.Aries (born under the sign of Ari-
es,between March 21 and April 20)usually like
spicy foods,with a lot of onions and pepper.
People with the sign of Taurus (April 21 to May
22)prefer healthful fruits and vegetables,but
they often eat too much.5 Aquarius (Janu-
ary 21 to February 19)can eat as much meat and
fish as they want,but sugar and cholesterol(
are sometimes problems for them.
A.They are also usually in a hurry.
B.Some people eat mostly fast food.
C.They know about the“better things in life”.
D.Vegetarians often have more in common than
just their diet.
E.People's personalities have something to do
with their parents.
F.Many people avoid alcohol,which makes the
body lose too much water.
G.Sagittarius (November 22 to December 22)
like ethnic foods from many different coun-
tries.

个性方面所表现出来的差异。
