food means hamburgers, hot dogs, fried chicken and pizza. If you have a "sweet tooth", you might think of
apple pies or chocolate cakes. It's true that Americans do eat those things. But are those the only kind of food
you can find in America?
Except for Thanksgiving turkey, it's hard to find a typical (典型的) "American" food. The United States
is a land of immigrants (移民). So Americans eat food from many different countries. When people moved to
America, they brought their cooking styles (方式、类型) with them. That's why you can find almost every
kind of ethnic (民族) food in America. In some ways, Americans have taken foods from other countries as
favorites. Americans love Italian pizza, Chinese egg rolls. But the American ones don't taste quite like the food
where it comes from.
As any large country, the US has several special regions (地区). Each region is proud of its own special
style of food. Visit the South and enjoy country-style cooking. Take a trip to New England and taste delicious
seafood dishes. Travel through Midwest for tasty baked food. Travel over Southwest and try good treats.
Finish your food tour in Northwest with some wonderful coffee.
Americans are living at a fast pace (步速). Fast food restaurants offer people on the run everything from
fried chicken to fried rice. Half-done dinners and fast food make cooking at home very easy. One of the most
popular quick meals is sandwich. If the meat or cheese can be put between two pieces of bread, Americans
probably make a sandwich.
Americans on the go also eat a lot of "junk food". Potato chips, candy bars, soft drinks and so on are
popular treats. Many people eat too much of these unhealthy food. But others choose for more healthy eating
habits. Some even go "all natural". They refuse to eat any food prepared with chemicals.
American culture (文化) is a good example of the saying, "You're what you eat."There is different
background and ways of thinking. The kind of foods enjoyed in the US shows all kinds of personal tastes.
The food may be international and regional. Sometimes it's fast, and sometimes it's not so fast. It might be
junk food or maybe it's natural food. No matter what it is, the style is all-American.
B. are easy to prepare
C. have some changes in their taste
D. are healthy and natural
B. Because immigrants to America bring their ways of cooking with them.
C. Because it's easy to make ethnic food.
D. Because Americans like to try new-style cooking.
B. Americans like traveling to different regions
C. There are some special regions in America
D. Americans can enjoy some special food in special regions
B. natural food is the most healthy food
C. all Americans like to eat fast food because it is easy to make
D. the culture of a country decides its food styles
