When I'm in Italy，I generally only eat Italian food.I doubt whether there's another country in Europe that has food that can keep me coming back for more.
To eat well in Italy，finding the right restaurant is essential.I appreciate personality-driven restaurants，run by people keen（热衷的） to share their love of good cooking，and places serving family recipes.Signs of a good restaurant include a low-rent location，lots of locals，and a small，handwritten menu in one language.The menu is small because they're only selling everything they're cooking；it's handwritten because it's shaped by what is fresh today in the market；and it's in one language because they mostly serve locals.
For a fast and cheap lunch，I look for Italian food in corner delis （熟食店）：either a rosticceria，specializing in roasted meats and antipasti（开胃食物），or a hot table bar - a cafeteria offering a buffet of meat and vegetables.Another option is to drop by a neighborhood grocery store to pick up some cold cuts，cheeses，and other foods for a picnic.
Italians tend to spend a long time on each course，and dinner is the evening's entertainment.For example，when you have a full-blown Italian dinner in a restaurant，you don't get out until midnight；a three-hour meal is common.Waiters often provide lots of drinks that seem designed to keep you from leaving.When you want the bill，you'll have to ask for it.To "eat and run" is seen as a lost opportunity.
A couple of years ago，I sat down at my favorite place in Verona，Enoteca Can Grande，with my friend and guide Franklin.We let the chef，Giuliano bring us whatever he wanted.Just after the antipasti arrived，Franklin's wife phoned him and said， "Don't eat too much cheese or dessert." Later Franklin，who was not thin，surveyed our table.Sighing，he said， "The foods are so plentiful but I can eat few."
"That's a pity，" I said.
I enjoyed the food for three hours and he watched me eating for three hours.Eating in Verona was really an amazing experience.
4. What does the author want to show in Paragraph 1？ ______
A. He doesn't have many food choices in Italy.
B. Italian food is the best all over Europe.
C. He has a great tooth for Italian food.
D. He doesn't like trying foreign food.

A. At a restaurant at a high-rent location.
B. At a restaurant that locals visit frequently.
C. At a place where waiters don't just speak Italian.
D. At a place which provides various food.
6. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about？ ______
A. Ways to eat simply and cheaply in Italy.
B. Ways to prepare simple food in Italy.
C. Places to have a picnic in Italy.

    On Nov. 30, 2020, NASA flight engineer Kate Rubins pulled out 20 radish (萝卜) plants grown in the space station's Advanced Plant Habitat, wrapping them in foil for cold storage until they can make the voyage back to Earth next year.
    Back on the ground, scientists at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida are growing radishes in a control group. The researchers will compare the space-grown radishes to the vegetables grown on Earth, checking on how space produce measures up on providing the minerals and nutrients astronauts (宇航员) need as they prepare for longer trips.
    With their short growing time, radishes present potential advantages as a food source for future astronauts carrying out deep space missions in years to come. The radishes grow quickly, and they can be harvested in 27 days. The root vegetables also don't require much care from people.
    Astronauts have grown 15 different types of plants on the station, which include eight different types of leafy greens. And NASA has already tested more than 100 crops on Earth, identifying which plants to try out next in space. "Growing a range of crops helps us determine which plants grow better in microgravity and offer the best variety and nutritional balance for astronauts on long-time missions," Dufour said.
    Getting space agriculture right matters because the nutrients in the prepackaged food that astronauts currently eat in space degrade (降级) over a period of time, NASA said. Getting humans to Mars and back safely over a two-or-three-year mission requires growing food along the way. That not only gives astronauts more of a supply of fresh nutrients on the voyage, it also serves an emotional need as they tend to crops that are both a figurative (比喻的) and literal taste of home.
12. Why do astronauts choose to plant radishes in the space station?
A. Radishes don't need too much attention.
B. Radishes can be stored in cold conditions.
C. Radishes can supply enough nutrients alone.
D. Radishes' growing time can be shortened in space.
13. What's the purpose of testing various crops on Earth?
A. To help researchers carry out experiments more correctly.
B. To provide astronauts in space with more choices of food.
C. To serve emotional support for astronauts on the voyage.
D. To make sure the plants grow well and avoid nutrition loss.
14. What does the underlined word "they" refer to in the last paragraph?
A. Astronauts. B. Nutrients. C. Researchers. D. Radishes.
15. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. Agriculture in the future B. The food for astronauts
C. Planting radishes in space D. Preparations for space mission

38.

Whenever he gave me a little bit of money,he would say, "This is for spending.But you can save so me and put it in the piggy bank if you want to save it up." When he gave me larger amounts,it was clearly for saving in the piggy bank.For some time,this worked fine.I loved shaking the piggy bank and hearing the sound of the coins.As it became heavier,I grew more excited,dreaming about buying my new bike,and all the adventures I could have on it.
Whenever I wanted to take some money from the piggy bank to buy delicious ice-creams or beautiful pens,I would imagine riding my bike on the street,and thinking of that,my thoughts about ice-creams or pens went away.So for almost six months,I only put money into the piggy bank without taking any out.I thought I wouldn't break my piggy bank for anything.But one day something unexpected happened.I saw a piece of news on the television that a serious earthquake had happened in a nearby province.As many houses were destroyed,a lot of children became homeless.Seeing their shabby clothes and crying faces,I was sleepless that night.

(3)originally;
(4)which;
(5)elements;
(6)combines;
(7)wealthier;
(8)why;
(9)an;
(10)supporting.
【解析】(1)句意：其中包括以前播放过的节目的新一季，包括《斗罗大路》第四季和《少年歌行》第二季。结合句意可知，此处表示“包括……”，应用介词including。故填including。
(2)句意：这些故事大多基于或改编自中国传说或文学。adapt sth. from...是固定用法，意为“从……改编……”。故填from。
(3)分析句子可知，修饰谓语动词comes应用副词。提示词original是形容词，其副词形式为originally，意为“原先，最初”。故填originally。
(4)句意：《魔道祖师》是另一个例子，它是基于小说作品，但这部动漫包含了许多中国传统文化的元素。分析句子可知，  (4)   is based on fiction是非限制性定语从句，定语从句缺少主语，先行词为事物，应用关系代词which引导从句。故填which。
(5)句意同上。many后接名词复数形式。提示词element是可数名词，意为“元素”。故填elements。
(6)句意：例如，它结合了中国传统水墨画的视觉风格和由长笛和古琴演奏的古风音乐。分析句子可知，设空处为本句的谓语部分，应填入谓语动词形式。结合句意可知，此处客观描述《魔道祖师》这部动漫的特点，应用一般现在时。主语为it，谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。故填combines。
(7)句意：随着我们的社会越来越富裕，中国人自然会对自己的文化根基重拾更大的自豪感和信心。分析句意以及后文的greater可知，此处填形容词比较级。故填wealthier。
(8)句意：这就是这些国风动画在中国崛起的原因。分析句子可知，  (8)   these guofeng animations are rising in China为表语从句，设空处应填入连接词。从句主干成分完整，需填入连接副词。上文在解释国风动漫风行的原因，即国风动漫为什么会流行起来。故填why。
(9)句意：《动漫杂志》指出：“中国动漫不再是一个陌生的词汇。”结合句意可知，此处为泛指，应用不定冠词，且形容词unfamiliar发音以元音音素开头。故填an。
(10)be devoted to (doing) sth.是固定短语，意为“致力于（做）某事”。故填supporting。
