Puerto Rican Cuisine(菜肴)

Puerto Rico, a Caribbean(加勒比海区)island rich in history and remarkable for natural beauty, has
a cuisine all its own. Immigration(移民)to the island has helped to shape its cuisine, with people from all
over the world making various contributions to it.However,before the arrival of these immigrants,the Taino
people lived on the island of Puerto Rico. Taino cuisine included such foods as rodents(啮齿动物),fresh
shellfish and fish fried in corn oil.
Many aspects of Taino cuisine continue today in Puerto Rican cooking,but it has been heavily influ-
enced by the Spanish,who invaded Puerto Rico in 1508,and Africans,who were initially brought to Puerto
Rico to work as slaves.Taino cooking styles were mixed with ideas brought by the Spanish and Africans to
create new dishes.The Spanish extended food choices by bringing cattle,pigs,goats,and sheep to the
island.Africans also added to the island's food culture by introducing powerful,contrasting tastes in dishes.

In fact,much of the food Puerto Rico is now famous for coffee,coconuts,and oranges一was actually im--
ported by foreigners to the island.
A common assumption many people make about Puerto Rican food is that it is very spicy(辛辣的).it' s
true that chili peppers are popular;aij caballero in particular is a very hot chili pepper that Puerto Ricans
enjoy. However, milder(微辣的)tastes are popular too, such as sofrito. As the base of many Puerto Rican
dishes,sofrito is a sauce made from chopped onions,green bell peppers,sweet chili peppers,and a handful
of other spices.It is fried in oil and then added to other dishes.

Which of the following is NOT true?
A:Sofrito is a type of extremely spicy food.
B:Many people think Puerto Rican food is spicy.
C:Puerto Rican cuisine uses a lot of chili peppers.
D:Aij caballero is a type of chile pepper.

第4题:

回答 68 ~ 71 题: D Liverpool, my hometown, is a unique city.It is so unique that in 2004 it became a World Heritage(遗产)Site.

I recently returned to my home city and my first stop was at a museum on the River Mersey.Blanketed in mist(薄雾),Victorian architecture rose from the banks of the river, responded to the sounds of sea-birds, and appeared unbelievably charming.When I headed toward the centre, I found myself surrounded by buildings that mirror the best palaces of Europe.It is not hard to imagine why, on first seeing the city, most visitors would be overpowered by the beauty of the noble buildings, which are solid signs of Liverpool’s history.

As if to stress its cultural role, Liverpool has more museums and galleries(美术馆)than most cities in Britain. At Walker Art Gallery, I was told that it has the best collections of Victorian paintings in the world, and is the home of modern art in the north of England. However, culture is more than galleries. Liverpool offers many music events. As Britain’s No.1 music city, it has the biggest city music festival in Europe, and its musicians are famous all over the world.Liverpool is also well-known for its football and other sports events. Every year, the Mersey River Festival attracts thousands of visitors, making the city a place of wonder.

As you would expect from such a city, there are restaurants serving food from around the world. When my trip was about to complete, I chose to rest my legs in Liverpool’s famous Philharmonic pub(酒馆). It is a monument to perfection, and a heritage attraction itself.

Being a World Heritage Site , my home city is certainly a place of “outstanding universal value.It is a treasure nouse with plenty of secrets for the world to explore.

A. its charming banks

Mt. Desert Island

The coast of the State of Maine is one of the most irregular in the world.A straight line running from the
southernmost coastal city to the northernmost coastal city would measure about 225 miles.If you followed the
coastline between these points,you would travel more than ten times as far. This irregularity is the result of
what is called a drowned coastline._________(46)At that time,the whole area that is now Maine was part of
a mountain range that towered above the sea. As the glacier(冰川)descended , however , it expended
enormous force on those mountains,and they sank into the sea.
As the mountains sank,ocean water charged over the lowest parts of the remaining land,forming a series
of twisting inlets and lagoons(咸水湖).The highest parts of the former mountain range,nearest the shore,
remained as islands._________(47)Marine fossils found here were 225 feet above sea level,indicating the
level of the shoreline prior to the glacier.
The 2,500-mile-long rocky coastline of Maine keeps watch over nearly two thousand islands. Many of
these islands are tiny and uninhabited,but many are home to thriving communities.Mt. Desert Island is one
of the largest,most beautiful of the Maine coast islands.Measuring 16 miles by 12 miles.Mt.Desert was
essentially formed as two distinct islands._________(48)
For years,Mt. Desert Island,particularly its major settlement,Bar Harbor,afforded summer homes for the
wealthy.Recently though,Bar Harbor has become a rapidly growing arts community as well.But,the best part
of the island is the unspoiled forest land known as Acadia National Park.Because the island sits on the
boundary line between the temperate(温带)and sub-Arctic zones , the island supports the plants and ani-
mals of both zones as well as beach , inland , and alpine(高山的)plants. _________( 49 ) The establishment
of Acadia National Park in 1916 means that this natural reserve will be perpetually available to all people,not
just the wealthy.Visitors to Acadia may receive nature instruction from the park naturalists as well as enjoy
camping,cycling,and boating. Or they may choose to spend time at the archeological museum,learning about
the Stone Age inhabitants of the island.
The best view on Mt.Desert Island is from the top of Cadillac Mountain._________(50)From the sum-
mit,you can gaze back toward the mainland or out over the Atlantic Ocean and contemplate the beauty
created by a retreating glacier.

_________(49)
A:This mountain rises 1,532 feet,making it the highest mountain on the Atlantic seaboard.
B:It is split almost in half by Somes Sound,a deep and narrow stretch of water,seven miles long.
C:The wealthy residents of Mt.Desert Island selfishly kept it to themselves.
D:Mt. Desert Island is one of the most famous of all the islands left behind by the glacier.
E:The term comes from the activity of the ice age.
F: It also lies in a major bird migration lane and is a resting spot for many birds.

答案:F
解析:
下面提到了“At that time”和冰川融化,可知这一句应该与冰河时期有关,故选E。
由空格的前后提示可知选B。
因为空前讲到了Mt.desert,后文就应该是关于Mt.Desert的。
前面讲到植物、动物等,故选F。
上一句提到了“the top of Cadillac Mountain”,下句应介绍山的高度,故选A。
