西红柿——水果还是蔬菜?
Tomatoes are one of the world's oldest foods. They were discovered by the Indians of South America thousands of years ago. The first tomatoes were very small. By the time the Europeans brought them to Europe in the 1500s, they were larger. They looked more like the tomatoes we eat today.
When tomatoes first arrived in Italy, they were known as "love apples". Italians believed that if you ate a tomato, you would easily fall in love.
In the United States, people believed that tomatoes were poisonous, and that you would die immediately after eating one. It wasn't easy to persuade people otherwise.
That is, until 1820, when Robert Johnson decided to prove that people were wrong. He announced that he would publicly eat one bushel of tomatoes—about 50. A huge crowd showed up to watch. They were sure that Mr. Johnson was going to die. Of course, he survived. And the tomato went on to gain a big place in the American diet.
In the beginning, people argued whether a tomato was a fruit or a vegetable. From a purely scientific point of view it is a fruit. A fruit is the ripened ovary of any plant that makes seeds. However, this didn't stop most people from calling it a vegetable. They reasoned that tomatoes are eaten with the main meal—just like vegetables.
They are not eaten as dessert, like other fruits such as apples or bananas. Therefore, people thought the tomato must surely be a vegetable. Fruit or vegetable, tomatoes have survived a long time. They are not likely to disappear any time soon. They are just so good to eat.
1.What did Italians think of tomatoes?
A.They thought tomatoes were harmful to humans.
B.They regarded tomatoes as "love apples".
C.They didn't know tomatoes were fruit or vegetables.
D.They thought tomatoes were fruit.
2.Which paragraph proved tomatoes were safe?
A.Paragraph 2. B.Paragraph 3. C.Paragraph 4. D.Paragraph 5.
3.Tomatoes were fruit ________.
A.because it was from a purely scientific opinion
B.because they were discovered thousands of years ago
C.because tomatoes were eaten with the main meal—just like vegetables
D.because tomatoes were not eaten as dessert
4.What does the underlined words "ripened ovary" mean in Chinese?
A.茎 B.根 C.花蕊 D.子房
5.What's the best title for the text?
A.The history of tomatoes B.The value of tomatoes
C.The benefits of eating tomatoes D.The difference between fruit and vegetables
