1.For most Americans queuing for 30minutes outside of Xi'an Famous Foods in Manhattan,New York,Xi'an is a remote,mysterious place in China.But that doesn't stop them from enjoying the Shaanxi provincial capital's fine foods-including signature dishes roujiamo,a lamb sandwich or burger,"cold skin"noodles (涼皮)and yangrou paomo,a lamb soup with pieces of bread in it.
So what is the store's secret to winning such high popularity?
Owner Jason Wang offers a hint based on his experience growing up in the US.Many Americans are looking not just for a particular type of food,he has noticed,but rather for authenticity (真實性).With a global food culture,Manhattan now is full of young people craving adventurous food experiences.They"hunt down authentic cuisine,whether it is Chinese,Mexican,American or Mediterranean",Wang told Forbes.
Chinese cuisine has long been part of the US culinary(烹飪的)landscape."The trend of trying authentic Chinese food started in New York a long time ago,"said Sam Sifton,restaurant critic of The New York Times.
Many Xi'an dishes are quite easy for Americans to love."The lamb sandwich may have‘a(chǎn)uthentic,local'taste for some Chinese,but it's also familiar to Americans as a form of hamburger,"Sifton said."We love the English-muffin-style bread and the loose,packable meat,spicy and rich."
Hagan Blount,a food critic from Las Vegas,thinks that it's the trend in general for Americans to explore different foreign cuisines.
"Everyone wants to have new and exciting experiences-one way to get that hunger for adventure satisfied is by exploring new cuisines,"he told China Daily."The more people know,the less they are afraid."

63.What is the author's purpose in writing the article?B
A.To promote Chinese food culture among Americans.
B.To explain why food from Xi'an has been well-received in Manhattan.
C.To analyze why Americans like to explore new cuisines.
D.To tell the story of how Jason Wang started Xi'an Famous Foods in Manhattan.
64.According to Jason Wang,many AmericansB.
A.know a lot about Chinese food culture
B.a(chǎn)ttach great importance to the authenticity of food
C.prefer Chinese cuisine to other foreign cuisines
D.think Chinese cuisine has influenced American cuisine a lot
65.The underlined word"craving"in Paragraph 3 probably meansD.
A.refusingB.reportingC.being afraid of           D.longing for
66.What can we conclude from the article?C
A.Chinese cuisine has a lot in common with American cuisine.
B.To attract local people,the lamb sandwich has been changed into a form of hamburger in America.
C.Those who love to explore different types of cuisines tend to be more adventurous.
D.Those who enjoy exploring different cuisines usually prefer to cook for themselves.

7.A Dream Realized
Zhao Yang,33,an employee of a French company in Beijing,who has traveled extensively in the United States by motorbike.

I have been addicted to Harley-Davidson motorcycles since I was young,and knowing that motorcycle-related culture is very popular in the US,I decided to take a trip.Along with my wife and a group of fellow enthusiasts,I participated in a 15-day tour in October last year.We had one free day,so I headed to Las Vegas.
Before arriving in the US,I researched a range of materials about riding a motorbike there.I also found some classic recommended routes on Chinese websites related to Harley Davidson clubs.
With the help of their suggestions,I designed my own route.
In accordance with the rules,before I left China I visited a notary office (公證機關(guān)),where my driving license was confirmed as acceptable in the US and my documents were translated into English.Only then did I buy my basic motorcycle equipment.

When we arrived at Las Vegas,we rented a Harley Davidson and rode around the city.It was an exciting,unforgettable experience,because it was not only the achievement of a dream,but I also experienced the regional motorcycle culture in the US.As we parked the bike at the roadside,some drivers rolled down their car windows and gave us the thumbs-up,and when we drove on the road,car drivers pulled over to let us pass.We also visited a motorcycle-themed restaurant for lunch and enjoyed the fantastic decoration and delicious food.
I believe that traveling by motorcycle in the US will become popular because of the recent joint efforts to promote Sino-US tourism,especially after the two countries decided to name 2016as US-China Tourism Year.This new style of traveling will attract more young Chinese tourists,and people like me,who have a passion for freedom and adventure,will visit the US more frequently.For example,I am planning to travel along the famous highway called Route 66with friends during next year's Spring Festival.
If travel agencies and governments can promote the need for motorcyclists to obtain accurate information before they head to the US-such as the required documents,how to rent a motorbike and local traffic laws-"riding the range"will become a safe and great way to spend a vacation.

56.Zhao Yang's childhood dream was toB.
A.become a professional motorcyclist
B.travel in Harley-Davidson motorcycles
C.take a trip in the USA along with his wife

C.joined one of the Harley Davidson clubs and got suggestions
D.took lots of health examinations and bought some equipment
58.How did Zhao Yang feel when driving in Las Vegas?D
A.disturbed      B.disappointed    C.depressed    D.excited
59.Zhao Yang thinks that traveling by motorcycle in the US willA.
A.enjoy much popularity with Sino-US tourism

10.Indoor Plants
As with any house guests,indoor plants require a certain amount of basic,regular attention if they are going to feel at home.The first consideration when purchasing plants is to make reasonably sure that they are suitable for the condition in which they are going to be housed.
     A general rule for most plants being brought indoors for the first time is to ensure that they have reasonable temperature of not less than 60 degrees Fahrenheit,a position out of cold air,safe from pets and not exposed to strong sunlight.
     Plants love company.When plants are growing together,they create an atmosphere of damp around themselves which is far more beneficial than hot dry conditions.A group of plants will also present a more pleasing picture and provide an opportunity for a creative arrangement.There is no secret to this.Just rely on your natural feeling for harmony.
     Watering and feeding plants are probably the two areas of care that are the least well understood,but,again,if you follow a few simple rules,your plants should do well.Cold water direct from the tap can have a frightening effect on the roots of delicate plants.Slightly warm water is therefore the answer.It is usually better to pour water on to the soil on the surface of the pot rather than put the water into the pot holder at the bottom.Avoid giving small amount of water at regular intervals-it is much better to wet the soil right through the pot in one go and then to allow it to dry noticeably before giving it a further watering.
The majority of indoor plants will be in active growth from March until October,and during this time,the established ones will benefit from regular feeding.This may mean feeding with a weak liquid fertilizer(肥料) at each watering or at intervals of a week or ten days with fertilizer at a standard strength.It is important,however,to ensure that plants are not fed when growth is inactive,when the soil in the pot is dry,or too soon after the plants has been potted up.
32.In Paragraph 2,the author mainly tells us toD.
A.buy plants that help clean indoor air 
B.create a new environment with plants
C.put plants on the sunny side of the room
D.make sure of suitable conditions for plants
33.What's the benefit of plants growing together?B
A.It provides owners good company.
B.It helps the air around them slightly wet.
C.It makes it convenient to look after them.
D.It allows owners to draw a pleasant picture.
34.While watering the plants,what should we remember to do?A
A.Use water that is a little warm.
B.Pour the water into the pot holder.
C.Give small amount of water at one time.
D.Consider further watering in dry weather.
35.What is the best time to feed the plants?B
A.When the soil is dry.
B.When their growth is active.
C.When the temperature is high.
D.When they have just been planted.
