Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan province...

    Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan province, has an ancient competition with Chongqing, a city to its south-east. Residents of Chongqing accused their Chengdu cousins of being pompous (自大的). The people of Chongqing were hotheads, Chengdu residents shot back. Both cities share a love of spice-laden Sichuan cuisine, which in recent decades has occupied Chinese dinner tables. But they are at war over which has the best Sichuan hotpot—a type of DIY-cooking that involves boiling vegetables and slices of meat with chillies and numbing peppercorns.

A private museum in Chongqing, opened several years ago, makes the case for the Chongqing-style hotpot. It describes how it developed from a method used to make cheap offcuts of meat taste delicious. But Chengdu is playing catch-up. In January the city sold a plot of land on condition that the developer build a hotpot museum on part of it.

The two cities are among many in China with their own styles of hotpot. Hotpot restaurants in China are more profitable than other kinds. Haidilao, a well-known Sichuan-based hotpot chain, raised nearly $1bn when it was listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (股票交易所) in September.

Not all Chinese warm to hotpot. Some older Sichuanese refuse to be connected with it. They complain that it is causing overuse of chilli in other dishes that cover up the original genuine flavours.

But Chengdu’s plans for a museum suggest that Sichuan hotpot is not only growing in popularity, but is also becoming symbolic. If it can set the West on fire, officials may hope it will become a delicious new source of Chinese soft power. There will be plenty of glory for both Chengdu and Chongqing to take pride in if that happens.

1.Why are Chengdu and Chongqing competing with each other?

A.Because Chengdu people think Chongqing people are pompous.

B.Because Chengdu residents like to shoot back in battles.

C.Because they both think they are better at eating spicy food.

D.Because they both believe they have the best Sichuan hotpot.

2.What is the purpose of building a hotpot museum in Chengdu?

A.To compete with Chongqing. B.To advertise Sichuan cuisine.

C.To show their love for hotpot. D.To keep the hotpot tradition.

3.What can we infer about hotpot from the last paragraph?

A.The two cities have competed only in recent decades.

B.More hotpot museums will be built in the future.

C.Hotpot is already a source of Chinese soft power.

D.People hold a high expectation for hotpot culture.

4.Which can be a suitable title for the text?

A.Growing Popularity of Hotpot in Two Cities

B.Two Cities’ War Over Tastiest Sichuan Hotpot

C.“No Hotpot, No Happiness” True in Food Business

D.Private Museum in Chongqing Opened First

 

1.D 2.A 3.D 4.B 【解析】 这是一篇议论文。文章首段提到,两城就谁做的火锅最好的争论引出论题,随后结合事实:两城先后建立博物馆,相互竞争,最终归结到一点:火锅在国际上的受欢迎程度将会给两城人民带来荣耀,这是政府和人民的期望。 1. 细节理解题。结合题干关键词Chengdu and Chongqing competing with each other可以定位到第一段第一句。Chengdu, …, has an ancient competition with Chongqing,根据第一段最后一句But they are at war over which has the best Sichuan hotpot—a type of DIY-cooking that involves boiling vegetables and slices of meat with chilies and numbing peppercorns. 但是双方还在为谁的火锅最好而争论不休。可知,他们两个城市争论的焦点在于“谁的火锅最好”,选项D符合题意。故选D项。 2. 推理判断题。结合题干关键词building a hotpot museum in Chengdu定位到文章的第二段最后两句But Chengdu is playing catch-up. In January the city sold a plot of land on condition that the developer build a hotpot museum on part of it. 但是成都正在迎头赶上。一月份成都卖了一块地,条件是开发商在里面建一座火锅博物馆。结合本段前两句A private museum in Chongqing, opened several years ago, makes the case for the Chongqing-style hotpot. It describes how it developed from a method used to make cheap offcuts of meat taste delicious. 几年前重庆开了一家私人博物馆,来证明重庆火锅的特色。博物馆展示了重庆火锅从便宜的边角肉片尝起来美味的发展过程。以及最后一段第一句:But Chengdu’s plans for a museum suggest that Sichuan hotpot is not only growing in popularity, but is also becoming symbolic. 但是成都的博物馆计划表明,四川火锅不仅越来越受欢迎,而且正变得具有象征意义。比较内容可以得出,重庆开了私人博物馆,来展示了重庆火锅从便宜的边角肉片尝起来美味的发展过程,证明重庆火锅的特色;成都卖了一块地,让开发商在里面建一座火锅博物馆,说明四川火锅不仅越来越受欢迎,而且正变得具有象征意义。此举动同样是两城在争斗上的一个表现。选项A符合题意。故选A项。 3. 推理判断题。理解最后一段内容:但是成都的博物馆计划表明,四川火锅不仅越来越受欢迎,而且正变得具有象征意义。 如果它能点燃西方人们的吃火锅的欲望,官员们可能希望它能成为中国软实力的一个诱人的新来源。 如果这种情况发生,成都和重庆都会有足够的荣耀值得骄傲。可以得出结论,火锅在国际上的受欢迎程度将会给两城人民带来荣耀,这是政府和人民的期望。选项D符合题意。故选D项。 4. 主旨大意题。文章首段提到,两城就谁做的火锅最好的争论引出论题,随后结合事实:两城先后建立博物馆,相互竞争,最终归结到一点:火锅在国际上的受欢迎程度将会给两城人民带来荣耀,这是政府和人民的期望。所以,文章的标题应该是:两城之争:谁做出了最好吃的四川火锅。选项B符合题意。故选B项。

    Paris is a museum city. There are hundreds of them, big and small. But, most importantly, they are excellent, some of the best on the planet. From the Louvre to the Musée d’Orsay to the Centre Pompidou, you could spend a lifetime wandering the halls of the city’s great museums. Here are some of the best museums in Paris.

The Louvre

The world’s ultimate museum is also the biggest one and the most visited. The 35,000 art objects on display are all overshadowed by one single painting—Mona Lisa, in the Renaissance era.

Jeu de Paume

Set in the Tuileries Gardens next to the Louvre, Jeu de Paume’s past lives were of a tennis court and then a museum which housed Impressionist art. Today it is Paris’s main photography and video museum. It also occasionally shows art-house films.

Musée d’Orsay

Housed in a former railway station on the Left Bank of the Seine, the museum opened in 1986 and today houses the planet’s largest collection of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist artworks. If you like 19th-century natural landscapes with rural lives and tastes, this is the place to take it all in.

Musée du Quai Branly

As Paris’s main home to non-European art, objects, and culture, this Jean Nouvel-designed museum exhibits a collection of 3,500 pieces, many of which were taken from various countries during the vast period of French Colonialism. There are objects from Quebec and Louisiana from the time when the regions were under French control. There are also Indian sculptures, masks from West Africa and other aesthetic delights.
