    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(有毒的), and that you would die immediately upon eating one. It wasn't easy to persuade(劝说) people otherwise.

That is, until 1820, when Robert Johnson decided to prove people wrong. He announced that he would publicly eat one bushel(蒲式耳) 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 tomatoes were a fruit or a vegetable. From a purely scientific point of view they are a fruit. A fruit is the ripened ovary(子房) of any plant that makes seeds. However, this didn't stop most people from calling tomatoes 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,__they__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 too good to eat.

    English is becoming more and more popular in China. It can be used in every field, such as on some signs and restaurant menus. But there are some problems when people use it. Perhaps you've seen the English letters “WC” in your city. They show public toilets. But do you know it is far from native(地道的) English? In fact, foreigners from English­speaking countries seldom use the letters.

Workers in our city are changing “WC” signs all over the city. The government is spending much money changing all the bad English on signs and restaurant menus. Many other places in China are following our pace．

“WC, or water closet, is old­fashioned English. It sounds dirty to me.” says Nancy, a young woman from the US. The old sign will become “Gents/Men”and “Ladies/Women”．“I see much poor English in everyday life, and not only on signs，” she says, “I know what they mean, but they are Chinglish, not real English. For example, when someone says to me ‘My hometown is Guizhou Province', I know he or she should say ‘My hometown is in Guizhou Province'. Hometown is a smaller place in a province.” The common mistakes that Nancy picked up include “Not Entry”， which should be “No Entry”， “Direction of Airport” should be changed to “To the Airport”. And it is “Room Rate”， not “Room Price”. And remember to “Keep off the Grass” rather than “Care of the Green”．

The next time you walk on the street or eat in the restaurant, you can go and see if the expressions are right.

A.Chinese students.

2.What's the attitude(态度) of the government towards the bad English on signs?

A.It's native.

B.It should be changed.

C.It doesn't matter.

A.steps B.habits C.chances D.dreams

4.Which of the following signs is Right?

A.Not Entry B.Room Price

C.To the Airport D.Care of the Green

5.What is the main idea of the passage?

A.Chinglish on menus.
