本文为新媒体语篇，文章是一位美食评论家的三则博客日志，分别介绍了中国三个不同地区的传统美食，具有事物说明文的特征。读文时，应通过逐层概括归纳，重点把握每一个事物的主要特征或本质，如作者在介绍四川火锅时，围绕“the hot flavour”这一主要特征从各角度展开说明。
同时，此类文章讲究语言的生动性、趣味性，并多用比喻、拟人、讲故事等方法让文章内容更生动形象、风趣活泼。此外，对事物的细节描述通常和作者的主观感受结合起来，如本文中的mouth-watering、let loose rivers of sweat、juicy and salty 等。这些生动形象、细致入微的描写能让读者产生身临其境的代入感。读文时，注意分析、品悟文章的语言特色。

2．A local history book from the late Qing Dynasty praised salted duck in particular, saying it was without equal.

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
For years, Kevin Pang's relationship with his father Jeffrey Pang consisted mainly of brief phone exchanges of small talk or arguments over minor complaint in person. The Pangs immigrated from China in 1988 when Kevin was 6 years old. Before settling into America, his cook-loving father put together a notebook of homeland food recipes for their new lives abroad.
Kevin says he never thought about food too deeply until he thought about it professionally. “When I became a food writer, I started to have questions about certain Chinese foods and dishes that I had never heard of. My father became this wellspring (源泉) of knowledge and wisdom，” Kevin recalls.“Suddenly, our two-minute talks were half an hour.”
When it comes to cooking Chinese food, Kevin points out that there is no one definition of Chinese food. “Chinese cooking is not hidebound. For example, consider baked pork chop rice (烤猪排饭), popularized in China. It is a pork chop with egg-fried rice. And then you top it with this thick tomato sauce，” explains Kevin. “And then you top that with some cheese. It's a very interesting combined dish that has some Western British influences, and it's altogether very Chinese as well.”
By the time Kevin joined America's Test Kitchen (ATK) staff in 2020 as its editorial director for digital content, his father had become an Internet celebrity demonstrating the family's recipes. Kevin recognized an opportunity not only to share his own family's food stories but also to apply the ATK method of breaking down recipes into simple steps for the home cook.
“I think this cookbook can teach fathers and sons how to connect, how to find a common interest and improve their relationship，” Kevin says. That feeling has found a fan base, generating nearly 3 million views for their online cooking series “Hunger Pangs”， where viewers speak highly of their father-son bond as much as they do of their attractive dishes.

As a chef who has worked across Southeast Asia, Goh Wooi Cheat moved to China to tap into his roots and offer local diners his own unique version of Cantonese cuisine.
Cantonese cuisine from Singapore used to be famous across Asia for its high-quality ingredients and beautiful presentation, but after working in Beijing for several years, Singaporean chef Goh Wooi Cheat firmly believes that “the future of Cantonese cuisine lies in China”．
“All the finest ingredients from around the world can be now found in China and the chefs' presentation skills are improving fast，” the 56-year-old chef says.
Goh's ancestors moved to Malaysia from Guangdong Province, so he has been familiar with Cantonese cuisine since childhood.Growing up in Penang, Goh remembers always hearing about cuisines, portions, ingredients and seasoning (调味品) at home, because his family ran a catering business.He moved to Singapore and became an apprentice
(学徒) Cantonese chef in 1983, becoming an executive chef 10 years later.He also worked in five-star hotels in Indonesia for a couple of years, where Cantonese wedding banquets were an important element.
In 2011, Goh received a job offer from Beijing, which he promptly accepted. “I felt proud of returning to China, the land where my ancestors come from — especially since I believe that real Chinese cuisine should be served to Chinese people，” Goh says.
But Goh also thinks that some classic Cantonese dishes are outdated, prompting him to create new dishes that still manage to honor tradition while appealing to contemporary diners.To add one new dish to the menu, Goh would refine it over time repeatedly, gathering feedback from his customers to continue enhancing the dish to reach a level of perfection both in terms of taste and presentation.
“A dish can be described as delicious only if it's accepted and enjoyed by every guest — and not just by food experts，” he says.Goh also believes that chefs must develop their own cooking style, especially in Cantonese cuisine；otherwise the chefs who always follow tradition may find themselves left behind.
语篇解读：本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了一名新加坡粤菜厨师来到北京，他致力于创造出新的菜式，在尊重传统的同时又能吸引当代食客。
5．What can we learn about Goh from the passage
A．His ancestors were native Malaysians.
B．His family once ran a restaurant business.
C．He became an executive chef in Singapore ten years ago.
D．To create new dishes, he gave up some classic Cantonese dishes.
√

6．What does the underlined word “refine” in the sixth paragraph mean
A．Shift.　　　　　　　　 B．Improve.

7．Which of the following best describes Goh as a chef
A．Narrow-minded. B．Traditional.
C．Humorous. D．Creative.
√
解析：推理判断题。根据倒数第二段第一句可知，Goh致力于创造出新的菜式，在尊重传统的同时又能吸引当代食客；由此可推断出，作为一名厨师，Goh是有创造性的。
8．In Goh's opinion, a chef should___________.
A．set himself apart with a distinctive cooking style
B．focus on improving his presentation skills
C．stay up to date and get rid of tradition
D．be able to identify the finest cooking ingredients
√
解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段第二句可知，Goh认为厨师必须有自己的烹饪风格，如果总是沿袭传统，可能会被时代淘汰；因此，在Goh看来，厨师应该以独特的烹饪风格使自己与众不同。

A short cooking video posted by a netizen has recently become a popular hit on the site.Bearing the tag “Chinese food”， the video not only showed off the chef's superb skills in making Chinese dishes, but it also got netizens abroad wanting to get a taste of China's unique food culture.
Although the video was nothing master-level, just a rather standard home-made fried potato dish, it received more than 200,000 likes after only three days of posting.In addition to praising the chef, commenters wondered why such a simple Chinese dish could look like a fancy cuisine that had been made through tons of effort.“Even the most basic Chinese dish needs to have three elements: color, smell and taste.For example, color not only requires a chef to have sharp eyes, but also valuable experience，” said Wang, an experienced Chinese chef in Guangzhou.
Chinese cooking is not the only type of content covered by the tag.Other popular videos under the tag include “odd food” challenges, traditional Chinese dishes and Chinese snack tasting, the latter of which has become particularly popular among young omnivore vloggers (video bloggers) living in a world of continually expanding cultural globalization.
“I have been a fan of Chinese food ever since my Chinese friend cooked me di san xian at university.I was surprised by the dish's taste and its look, which was very different from my home food, but felt it was very familiar to me because I noticed we share similar cooking skills，” said Bianca, an Italian Asian food fan.
“I started my channel by recording my roommate tasting my cooking.These videos got likes and comments gradually.Seeing some people commenting in German or English and saying ‘I want to try it’， I felt these videos can narrow the gap between the two cultures，” said Mr Bear, a vlogger on the Internet who promotes Chinese cooking.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了中国烹饪在年轻的博主中很受欢迎，中国饮食文化成为全球化的一个组成部分。
9．What does the underlined word “omnivore” in paragraph 3 refer to
A．People eating meat. B．People eating vegetables.
C．People eating diverse food. D．People eating Chinese food.
√
解析：词义猜测题。分析画线词所在句子可知，the latter of which指代的是“Chinese snack tasting”，但中国小吃不只包含蔬菜和肉类，而“vloggers”的后置定语是“living in a world of continually expanding cultural globalization”，因此博主也不能仅限于吃中国食物的人们。故画线词指“吃多样食物的人”。
10．What does Bianca think of Chinese food
A．Common and dear.
B．Special and familiar.
C．Weird and delicious.
D．Similar and disconnected.
√
解析：细节理解题。根据第四段的内容可知，Bianca认为中餐很特别并且对它有熟悉的感觉。
11．What does Mr Bear mean in the last paragraph
A．The majority of his fans tasted the food he cooked.
B．His roommate encouraged him to cook Chinese food.
C．He is an expert determined to become a Chinese chef.
D．His videos make a difference to cultural communication.
√
解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段可知，Mr Bear提到他的这些视频逐渐受到人们的喜欢和评论，这些视频可以缩小两种文化之间的差距。由此可知，Mr Bear的视频对文化交流产生了影响。
12．What can we infer from the passage
A．Chinese culture has aroused people's interest overseas.
B．The video is more master-level rather than a standard home-made dish.
C．Basic Chinese dish has three elements: color, smell and taste.
D．Chinese cooking has become popular among young vloggers.
√
解析：推理判断题。根据第一段可知，网友在某网站上发布的简短烹饪视频最近在该网站上很受欢迎。第三段第二句也提到中国烹饪在年轻的视频博主中尤为流行。
Ⅱ.阅读七选五( )
Easy, kid-friendly ways to make tomato sauce
You can't beat the convenience of tomato sauce from a jar, but what about when you're desiring something a little more home-made？You don't need to keep an Italian grandmother on speed-dial. 13 Use two pints (品脱) of tomatoes in the following formulas to make approximately three servings' worth of sauce.
No-cook tomato sauce
14 Add all the ingredients to a large bowl, sprinkle generously with salt, and stir in a few tablespoons of olive oil.Let the mixture sit for 2 or 3 hours at room temperature to allow the salt to soften the tomatoes and meld the flavors.
Cherry tomato pan sauce
Slice the tomatoes in half and thinly slice or mince 1 or 2 garlic cloves (depending on how much you love garlic)． 15 Cover and cook for about 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes have mostly softened into a stirrable sauce.Taste and season with salt and pepper, along with any fresh or dried herbs.
Roasted or grilled tomato sauce
Keep the tomatoes whole for this version.Preheat a conventional oven or toaster oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit or preheat a gas grill to medium heat.For oven-roasting, place the tomatoes in a single layer in a baking dish.Roast for about 20 to 25 minutes, or grill for about 15 to 20 minutes, until the tomatoes are starting to burst and the skins are starting to char. 16
17 So you can add other ingredients you may have on hand.Add more, or cut back on, garlic depending on your tolerance.Experiment with adding a few shallots instead of an onion.Stir in chopped fresh or dried herbs like basil, oregano, rosemary and parsley.If you like heat, add a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes.
A．This olive oil-based sauce is ideal for vegetarians.
B．You just need a helpful kid and some tomatoes to start.
C．Roughly cut the tomatoes and any fresh herbs on hand.
D．Carefully pour the tomatoes into a bowl and season to taste.
E．These sauce techniques are customizable to your family's tastes.
F．Add more salt to taste and chopped fresh herbs if you have them.
G．Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat, then stir in the tomatoes and garlic.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了几种简单的、适合孩子的番茄酱的制作方法。
13．解析：选B　根据前文可知，作者用幽默的口吻表示做番茄酱这件事要求不高。B项用同样的口吻进一步补充上文观点，表明做番茄酱简单易学。
14．解析：选C　根据本段小标题“No-cook tomato sauce”可知，本段提到番茄酱无需烹饪，且后文提及了做番茄酱所需的所有原料，由此可知，设空句也应提及“原料”，故C项符合主旨并且照应后文的“the ingredients”。
15．解析：选G　前文提到了“西红柿、大蒜”等，设空句应继续讲述如何处理该原料，且后文提及了“煮”“搅拌”，由此可知，设空句应有“加热”等核心词汇。故G项承上启下，符合语境。
16．解析：选D　根据前文可知，直到前文提及的步骤，烹饪已经结束，因此，设空句应提及“装碗”，D项为完成番茄酱的最后一步，前后衔接紧密。
17．解析：选E　根据后文可知，在做番茄酱的过程中，其他原料可以随意添加，由此可知，该部分内容强调制作的主观性和自主性，故E项衔接下文，符合语境。UNIT 1　课时检测(五)　“Extended reading”的课文习读环节

A short cooking video posted by a netizen has recently become a popular hit on the site.Bearing the tag “Chinese food”， the video not only showed off the chef's superb skills in making Chinese dishes, but it also got netizens abroad wanting to get a taste of China's unique food culture.
Although the video was nothing master-level, just a rather standard home-made fried potato dish, it received more than 200,000 likes after only three days of posting.In addition to praising the chef, commenters wondered why such a simple Chinese dish could look like a fancy cuisine that had been made through tons of effort.“Even the most basic Chinese dish needs to have three elements: color, smell and taste.For example, color not only requires a chef to have sharp eyes, but also valuable experience，” said Wang, an experienced Chinese chef in Guangzhou.
Chinese cooking is not the only type of content covered by the tag.Other popular videos under the tag include “odd food” challenges, traditional Chinese dishes and Chinese snack tasting, the latter of which has become particularly popular among young omnivore vloggers (video bloggers) living in a world of continually expanding cultural globalization.
“I have been a fan of Chinese food ever since my Chinese friend cooked me di san xian at university.I was surprised by the dish's taste and its look, which was very different from my home food, but felt it was very familiar to me because I noticed we share similar cooking skills，” said Bianca, an Italian Asian food fan.
“I started my channel by recording my roommate tasting my cooking.These videos got likes and comments gradually.Seeing some people commenting in German or English and saying ‘I want to try it’， I felt these videos can narrow the gap between the two cultures，” said Mr Bear, a vlogger on the Internet who promotes Chinese cooking.
