Chinese food in Britain has over 100 years of history. Since then, they’ve been springing up around the country. Today, Chinese food is one of the top choices for hungry Englishmen.

But since coming to China, I’ve found some differences. Much of the Chinese food in Britain is influenced by western tastes. For example, dishes are not hot and had fewer kinds. It’s difficult to find the hot food of Yunnan food in Britain. The most popular Chinese dishes in Britain are chou mein, egg-fried rice and spring rolls. Also, meat dishes are always sweet and sour.

The Chinese food in Britain not only gives a different taste. In most Chinese restaurants, food is served as a buffet(自助的). And once you sit down in a Chinese restaurant, don’t hope to rotate(旋轉(zhuǎn)) the dishes around a big round table to share. This kind of table in English is called a Lazy Susan because it’s convenient to move dishes around. But in Britain they are very uncommon.

At the end of the meal, don’t forget your lucky cookie! In most Chinese restaurants, you’ll be given a cake that you break a half. Inside is a small piece of paper with your lucky words written on it. Although you can hardly find lucky cakes in China, no Chinese meal in Britain is complete without reading these letters of good luck.

1.What does the underlined phrase “springing up” in paragraph 1 mean?

A. 出現(xiàn) B.變化 C. 服務 D. 分享

2.According to the writer, Chinese dishes in Britain ___________.

A. are hotter

B. are the same as Western dishes

C. have fewer kinds

D. have the same taste as those in China

3.From the last paragraph, we can learn that _________________.

A. People will become lucky if they have lucky cakes.

B. lucky cakes are also very popular in China.

C. English people like reading lucky words in the cakes

D. Chinese meals are too much for an English person to finish

4.What’s the title of the passage?

A. Chinese Lucky Cakes B. Chinese Food in Britain

C. English Food from China D. a Lazy Susan

科目:初中英語 來源:2016屆山東夏津縣萬隆實驗中學九年級期末模擬檢測英語試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

In a school some trouble was caused by the students. They are very naughty and didn't obey the school rules.They often fought with each other and they didn't forgive each other. One day a new teacher came to this school. When he heard that, he came up with a good idea.

He told each of his students to bring a clear plastic bag and a bag of potatoes to school. For every person they didn't want to forgive in their lives, they chose a potato, wrote the person's name on it, and put it in the plastic bag.

Some of their bags were very heavy. They were then told to carry this bag with them everywhere for one week. They would put it beside their bed at night, on the seat when sitting in a car or on a bus, and next to their desk at school. Days of carrying the bags around with them made students get to know what a weight they were carrying in their minds. * And they had to pay attention to it all the time so they didn't forget it or leave it in embarrassing (令人難堪的) places. As time passed by, the potatoes went bad and smelt nasty.

Too often we think of tolerance as a gift to other people, and it clearly is for ourselves! * If we choose to keep our sadness and hatred (仇恨) in our hearts, we will have to carry them around all our lives. After that, the students got on well with each other and didn't fight anymore. Learn to forgive (原諒), and you will be happier at the same time.

1.The new teacher asked the students to bring _____________to school.

A. a clear plastic bag of potatoes

D. a clear plastic bag and a bag of potatoes

2.They wrote the person's name on the potato, who_____________.

A. they liked B. they didn't forgive

C. hated them D. liked them

3.The underlined word “tolerance” means

A. 感恩 B. 寬容 C. 仇恨 D. 憎恨

4.From this passage we can know that _____________.

A. we should learn to forgive

B. we should know something about potatoes

C. we shouldn't use plastic bags

D. we should take potatoes to school

5.Which of following is NOT true?
