阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

  Visitors to Waikiki Beach may have to look twice at the four-legged sufer boarding in to shore just to make sure they are not dreaming, but the regulars are not surprised.They know the eight-year-old pup is Bugsy, a local legend whose owner, David Yew, taught the dog to surf.

  Yew, 39, got the idea while he and Bugsy were not walking on the beach and came upon a statue of a surfer.Yew placed the dog down on the surfboard to take a photo, and the scene looked so natural that Yew was inspired to take the next step.Soon the two were surfing together.Bugsy loves the water so much that Yew has trouble keeping up.

  Bugsy wasn't always so full of energy and fun.Two days after Yew, a doctor of emergency medicine, adopted the 12-week-old puppy from a shelter, Bugsy had a serious cough.Yew rushed the pup to the ICU of a vet hospital, where he stayed until Yew could no longer afford to keep him there.Bugsy needed further treatment, so Yew built his own ICU in his apartment and gave the sick pup treatment himself and Bugsy recovered.

  Since then, the doctor and dog have been inseparable."Saving Bugsy's life creat unconditional trust between us, "Yew says."He knows I'll take care of him no matter what happens."

  That may be what fuels Bugsy's spirits.The pair surf together every week and have shared other experiences, including skydiving(高空跳伞).At Yew's wedding to Aimee Kim last year, a tuxedoed(穿晚礼服的)Bugsy carried the rings for them.

  Bugsy and Yew have given up skydiving, at the bride's insistence.But hang up the board? No way."I want this dog to experience the same joy that i have in my life, "says Yew.

Chinese writer Xi Juan is a pioneer of time-travel stories in China. In 1993 she published a love story about a young woman time traveling to ancient times. The leading role’s modern personality and perception of love help her win the heart of a cool, handsome martial art master. Such a plot satisfies female fans’ love fantasy.
Starting from the late 1990s, novels about men traveling back to the past prevailed (盛行), with a Step into the Past as the most popular example. In these stories, the male leading roles accomplish great things with their modern skills and wisdom.

Eye candy
“I’m hooked by the shows because they are characterized by dramatic and poetic love and have eye-pleasing actors,” Xia Xiaoyan, who works for a foreign-owned enterprise in Shanghai, explained her love for time travel TV series.

When the Spanish first brought chocolate back to Europe, it was still being served as a drink, but soon went through an important change: the chili pepper(红辣椒)was replaced by sugar. The new sweetened chocolate drink was so expensive that few could afford, but by the 17th century the drink was common among European noblemen. In England, which was somewhat more equality favored than the rest of Europe, chocolate was more widely available. Those who could afford it could enjoy chocolate drinks in the new coffee and chocolate houses of London.

As cacao(可可树)became more commonly available, people began experimenting with new ways of using it. Chocolate began to appear in cakes and other foods. But it wasn’t until 1828 that the “modern era” of chocolate making and production began.

The introduction of cocoa powder not only made creating chocolate drinks much easier, but also made it possible to combine chocolate with sugar and then remix it with cocoa butter to creat a solid. Others began to build on Van Houten’s success ,experimenting to make new chocolate products. In 1849, English chocolate maker Joseph Storrs Fry produced what was the world’s first eating chocolate.

Today, the Swiss are famous for their chocolate, and rightly so. In the late 19th century, they developed a number of processes that contributed greatly to creating the solid chocolate candy that we all enjoy today. Two major developments occurred in 1879. First, Daniel Peter, a Swiss chocolate producer, had the idea of using powdered milk(invented by Swiss Chemist Henri Nestle in 1867) to make a new kind of chocolate, milk chocolate. Second, Rudolph Lindt invented a process called “conching. ” which  greatly improved the quality of chocolate candy by making it more mixable.

       A.a sweet candy                                     B.a spicy(辣的)drink

       C.a sweet drink                                      D.a spicy candy

2.The passage mainly discusses the development of          .

       A.cacao                                                 B.chocolate drinks

       C.chocolate candies                                D.chocolate houses

3.More people drank chocolate in England than in the rest of Europe in the 17th century because          .

       A.the English were richer                         B.the English liked sweets better

       C.the English had more equal rights          D.there were fewer noblemen in England

4.The milk chocolate was invented in          .

       A.1828                   B.1849                   C.1867                   D.1878

5.What information will most probably be provided following the last paragraph?

       A.Chocolate products and new chocolate making techniques in the 20th century.
