四：话题阅读训练

（A）

Food serves as a form of communication in two fundamental ways. Sharing bread or other foods is a common human tradition that can promote unity and trust. Food can also have a specific meaning, and play a significant role in a family or culture's celebrations or traditions. The foods we eat — and when and how we eat them — are often unique to a particular culture or may even differ between rural (农村的) and urban areas within one country.

Sharing bread, whether during a special occasion (时刻) or at the family dinner table, is a common symbol of togetherness. Many cultures also celebrate birthdays and marriages with cakes that are cut and shared among the guests. Early forms of cake were simply a kind of bread, so this tradition has its roots in the custom of sharing bread.

Food also plays an important role in many New Year celebrations. In the southern United States, pieces of corn bread represent blocks of gold for prosperity (兴旺) in the New Year. In Greece, people share a special cake called vasilopita. A coin is put into the cake, which signifies (预示) success in the New Year for the person who receives it.

Many cultures have ceremonies to celebrate the birth of a child, and food can play a significant role. In China, when a baby is one month old, families name and welcome their child in a celebration that includes giving red colored eggs to guests. In many cultures, round foods such as grapes, bread, and moon cakes are eaten at welcome celebrations to represent family unity.

Nutrition is necessary for life, so it is not surprising that food is such an important part of different cultures around the world. 

1. According to the passage, sharing bread ____. 

A. indicates a lack of food              B. can help to develop unity

C. is a custom unique to rural areas       D. has its roots in birthday celebrations

2. What does the coin in vasilopita signify for its receiver in the New Year?

A. Trust.       B. Success.      C. Health.         D. Togetherness. 

3. The author explains the role of food in celebrations by. 

A. using examples           B. making comparisons

C. analyzing causes          D. describing processes

4. What is the passage mainly about?

A. The custom of sharing food.            B. The specific meaning of food. 

C. The role of food in ceremonies.         D. The importance of food in culture. 

参考答案：

1.B  根据第一段中的"Sharing bread or other foods is a common human tradition that can promote unity and trust"可知答案为B项。

2.B  根据第三段中的"A coin is put into the cake, which signifies (预示) success in the New Year for the person who receives it"可知答案为B项。

3.A 作者是通过举例来说明食物在节日庆祝中的作用的，比如：在第三段中分别以美国南部、希腊为例，而第四段中则以中国为例。

4.D  第一段的中心句是"Food can also have a specific meaning,and play a significant role in a family or culture's celebrations or traditions";第三段的中心句是"Food also plays an important role in many New Year celebrations"；第四段的中心句是"Many cultures have ceremonies to celebrate the birth of a child,and food can play a significant role"。综上所述，可知答案为D项。

（B）

Once a year in the town of Wuzhen all the tourists can be audience members.

But those who wanted to watch The Tree were　14　to hand in their cell phones before performances. When the show began they sat　15　one another quietly, professionals and　16　alike, not knowing what the evening would bring. 

What was gradually　17　were various stories with a tree at their center. The performance immersed its audience in an overwhelming auditory(听觉的) and　18　head trip, or, 　19　one viewer commented on the　20　site Douban, “the best nightmare I have ever had”.
