M: What’s all that? Are you going to make a salad?
W: No, I’m going to make a gazpacho.
M: What’s that?
W: [1] Gazpacho is a cold soup from Spain. It’s mostly vegetables. I guess you could call it a liquid salad.
M: Cold soup? Sounds weird.
W: It’s delicious. Trust me! I tried it for the first time during my summer vacation in Spain. You see, in the south of Spain, it gets very hot in summer, up to 42℃, so a cold gazpacho is very refreshing. The main ingredients are tomato, cucumber, bell peppers, olive oil and stale bread.
M: Stale bread? Surely you mean bread for dipping into the soup.
W: No. Bread is crushed and blended in, like everything else. [2] It adds texture and thickness to the soup.
M: Mmm… [3-1] And is it healthy?
W: [3-2] Sure. As I said earlier, it’s mostly vegetables. You can also add different things if you like such as half-boiled egg or cured ham.
M: Cured ham? What’s that?
W: That’s another Spanish delicacy. Have you never heard of it? It’s quite famous.
M: No. Is it good too?
W: Oh, yeah, definitely. It’s amazing. It’s a little dry and salty. [4] And it is very expensive because it comes from a special type of pig that only eats a special type of food. The ham is covered in salt to dry and preserve it, and left to hang for up to two years. It has a very distinct favor.
M: Mmm, sounds interesting. Where can I find some?
W: It used to be difficult to get Spanish produce here, but it’s now a lot more common. Most large supermarket chains have cured ham in little packets. But in Spain, you can buy a whole leg.
M: A whole pig leg? Why would anybody want so much ham?
W: In Spain, many people buy a whole leg for special group events such as Christmas. They cut it themselves into very thin slices with a long flat knife.
Questions 1 to 4 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
1. What do we learn about gazpacho?
2. For what purpose is stale bread mixed into gazpacho?
3. Why does the woman think gazpacho is healthy?
4. What does the women say about cured ham?
选项
A、To make it thicker.
B、To make it more nutritious.
C、To add to its appeal.
D、To replace an ingredient.
答案
A
解析
浏览四个选项,均为动词不定式结构,再根据选项中出现的thicker,nutritious,appeal,replace等词可以推测,该题可能涉及某种食物原材料的作用。题干问的是在凉菜汤中加入不新鲜的面包的目的是什么。对话中女士说面包可以增加汤的质地和黏稠度。故答案为A(使汤更黏稠)。B项(为了使它更有营养)、C项(为了使它更有吸引力)和D项(为了替换一种原料)均与对话不符,故排除。
