第二节:完形填空(共20小题;每小题1分,满分20分)

Chinese people think a lot about food. In fact, I think that they are sometimes obsessed(痴迷) with it. My first experience of this __36__ of Chinese culture came at a banquet during a trip to Beijing in 1998. I had eaten Chinese food often, but I could not have __37__ how fabulous(丰盛的)a real Chinese banquet could be. The first six or seven dishes seemed to __38__ the table, with plates dangerously __39__ one on top of another. I thought this vast __40__ of food was the total number of dishes to be served, and I started eating __41__. Everyone else just __42__ a bit of each dish and then put their chopsticks down, continuing to chat. “They can’t have very big appetites,” I thought.

To my surprise,more dishes __43__, plus soups, side dishes, and desserts. There was enough to feed a whole army. No __44__ my fellow guests had had only a few __45__ of each dish; they knew what was still to come. But I was already so __46__ that I could only __47__ as the banquet continued.

Another aspect of “food culture” is that the Chinese seem to eat almost every part of every animal- much to the __48__ of many westerners. Stomach, ears, tongue, tail, hoof and lungs are all likely to __49__ on the dinner table in front of you. The first time I saw a three-year-old kid __50__ chewing a chicken’s head I had bad dreams for weeks.

These days I enjoy that sort of food myself. __51__, there are other kinds of foods that have taken longer for me to __52__. The infamous(臭名昭著的) choudoufu is a(n) __53__. (The name says it all: “stinky tofu”.) Just when I got used to it, I found another __54__ on a trip to Hunan: deep-fried choudoufu, a horrible black substance that looked and __55__ about as appetizing as a burnt tennis shoe. Maybe I’ll get used to that, too-someday.
