There are not many nations that can say their
national dish has become international.
1 Both are famous all over the world, and
both have made the history of Italian food. People
have been eating pizza, in one form or another, for
centuries. They eat it everywhere—at home, in
restaurants, or on street corners.
2 Long ago, pieces of flatbread, topped
with mushrooms and herbs（香草）, were a simple
and tasty meal. They were mostly for those who
didn't have enough money to buy plates, or who
were on the go. In the 18th century, Naples, in
southern Italy, had become one of the largest cities
in Europe, and it was growing fast. Lots of city
people were poor and they were always rushing
around to look for work. 3 Pizza was cut to
meet the customers' needs. It was inexpensive, used
easy - to - find ingredients（原料）, and could be made
with plenty of flavor.
It was in America that pizza found its second
home. 4 Soon, pizza spread across the country
with the rapid development of the city. It was
increasingly considered as a fast, fun food. People
might like New York - style thin pizza, or Chicago
deep - dish thick pizza. Some want extra cheese on
their pizza while others only like vegetables. 5

B（2023常州）
Years ago, I interviewed a successful
advertising man. 6 I never believed he could
make it. About ten years later, however, I was
surprised to see the man on TV, holding up his new
book. He has published more than 100 best - sellers.
His ability to see himself as a writer shows a
concept（理念）known as “possible selves”. It
describes how people picture their future life: what
they may become, or want to become, or even fear
to become.
7 What you imagine can come true if you
build a bridge from your “now” self to your possible
self. But how do we build that bridge? Here are a
few steps you can try.
First of all, just take action. If you're dreaming
of a certain job, attend a course, follow someone
who does what you want to do and start by taking
up that type of work as a hobby or a side job. You
should tell yourself that these are the steps you can
take to achieve that goal（目标）.
A study of adults aged between 23 and 72 found
that more than 70 per cent of those who sent weekly
progress to a friend completed their goals, twice the
percentage of those who didn't share written goals.
So secondly, when you have a goal, share it. 8
That finding held true for all goals.
Finally, try looking toward people you know
only by chance for advice, or those with whom you
haven't spoken in years. A lot of research has found
that when you're asking for valuable advice, people
in your larger network are more likely（可能）to help
you than those closest to you. 9
A. Ask your best friends to share their goals.
B. A possible self can take you beyond
daydreams.
C. He told me that he dreamed of being a writer
in fact.
D. So, reach out to your weak connections when
needed.
E. He always imagined himself as the most
successful businessman.
F. More friends knowing about your goal makes it
more likely to be achieved.

文章大意:本文介绍了作者曾经采访一位成功的广告商，他说自己想成为作家。多年后，他梦想成真。作者由此了解了一个专业术语——“可能的自我”，在现在的自己和未来的自己之间架起一座桥梁，你的梦想就能成真，并详细介绍了“建造那座桥梁”的方法。
6. C 根据上文“I interviewed a successful advertising man”可知，此处应是采访中提到的内容，C项“他告诉我，事实上他梦想成为一名作家”符合语境。

人物线索法:前句“采访广告人”，后句“想成为作家”，C项衔接人物自述，符合语境。

8. F 根据上文“So secondly, when you have a goal, share it. ”可知，此处提到了分享目标，F项“越多朋友知道你的目标，就越可能实现”符合语境。
Plus解题技巧
观点支撑法:前句“分享目标”，F项“朋友知晓更易实现”解释原因，逻辑一致。
9. D 根据上文“A lot of research has found that when you're asking for valuable advice, people in your larger network are more likely to help you than those closest to you. ”可知，此处应提到与需要帮助有关的内容，D项“所以，在需要的时候，向与你关系不太密切的人寻求帮助”符合语境。
