Mum often 3.cooks(cook) spicy dishes. Thanks 4.to this,Dad has come to love hot pot! However,there are still some dishes that Dad dare not try even after many years of 5.marriage(marry) to my mother.
Even today,he still does not easily take to eating things like chicken feet. But I enjoy that sort of food myself.
Dad can cook a super “full English breakfast” of bacon,eggs,beans,sausages and toast with butter. He also does a typical Sunday roast. We all love roast beef and vegetables, 6.but Mum advises us not to eat too much roast food.
When I first visited China,Mum encouraged me 7.to try(try) different kinds of food,and I did! I came 8.across stinky tofu,a horrible grey thing that looked and smelt like a burnt sports shoe. I gathered all my courage to take a bite and was amazed 9.to find(find) it wasn’t so bad.
People say that one man’s meat is another man’s poison,but I feel at home with food from both my cultures. To me,there’s nothing 10.better

答案： 1.Growing 2.have enjoyed 3.cooks 4.to 5.marriage 6.but 7.to try 8.across 9.to find 10.better

A
Some people love eating food right after it is cooked. I prefer food just taken out from the freezer. Fruit,candies,nuts,chocolate,cake with buttercream frosting(糖霜),even peas,all of them taste delicious when frozen. In fact,I often eat them that way.
I was a kid when I picked up the habit. In my family,lots of things were thrown into the freezer—finally,two freezers—to prevent them from going bad.
If we eat when they are still warm,we’ll find ourselves taking the cookies more than we should. It’s better if we can put them into the freezer and wait. That way we’ll eat less and enjoy them more because they are hard and chewing becomes a slower,more patient effort.
That’s the point about frozen buttercream frosting. Put it in your mouth at room temperature,and it’s gone very quickly. But when it’s frozen,you can enjoy the taste much longer as it melts(融化) in your mouth.
The freezer treats a lot of fruit kindly. Take frozen grapes for example. I keep a bowl of grapes in my freezer. They become a little icy,and somehow their sweetness is improved. They are perfect and healthy dessert(点心). This is the same with oranges,apples,bananas ... You might think bananas would get super-hard when frozen. Wrong! They become cool,creamy and sweet. If you have wisely covered some or all of the bananas with melted chocolate before putting them into the freezer,they will have a double taste.
As long as you aren’t eating anything that truly has to be hot,go ahead and experiment.

答案： 【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者与别人截然不同的爱好——喜欢吃冰箱里冷冻过的东西，并分析了自己喜欢这种吃法的原因。最后，作者建议大家也都来试一下。
1.C 推理判断题。根据文章第一段中的“I prefer food just taken out from the freezer…often eat them that way.”可知，作者喜欢吃冷冻食品。下文都是围绕作者喜欢这样做的原因而展开的。
