3.Whether it is thin crust (酥皮),thick crust,stuffed,rolled,topped with a dozen ingredients (酥料) or served simply with tomato and cheese,there are few people who do not appreciate good pizza can be traced back to the 18th century when sellers wandered in the streets of Naples selling picces of flatbread to the poor.
Although it is commonly believed that Italians invented the pizza,its orgins can actually date back to ancient times.The lsraelites,Egyptians,and other Middle Eastern cultures ate flatbreads cooked in mub ovens similar to today's pita bread,and later the Romans and Greeks began topping this flatbread with olive oil and native spices.Once the Italians accepted the use of cooking with tomatoes,they perfected the pizza,and it developed into what we call pizza today.
It is said that the famous Margherita pizza from Naples,considered the"true"pizza by many,came about when Queen Margherita,while traveling through Italy,fell in love with the flatbreads being sold to the poor.She ordered a baker named Raphelle to bake her a selection of pizzas to try.One type,consisting of tomatoes,mozzarella,became her favorite,and was named to honor her appreciation for pizza.
Pizza Margherita is still a favorite pizza choice in Ital today.Although many cultures learned to back flatbreads with some type of topping,only southern Italy had rich,creamy buffalo-milk mozzarella and San Marzano tomatoes,the most important ingredients for Neapolitan pizza.
The world's first pizzeria is believed to have opened in Naples,Italy,although street peddlers (。 may have sold pizza for many years before that.By the beginning of the 1900's pizza made its way to the inner cities in the States,thanks to Italian immigrants,particularly New York and Chicago,which both have large Italian populations.
While living in Italy.I learned to love the thin-crusted pizza cooked in wood burning ovens that differs from the pizza sold in chain restaurants here in the US in any way.While the Neapolitan pizza consists of a few,fresh ingredients on a tasty,thin crust,the American pizza consumed here,is often packed with various ingredients,topped with a layer of heavy cheese,and prepared with a much thicker crust.True Italian pizza has a light,chewy crust,which may surprise those used to the taste of brick-oven pizza in America.

15.While you're hurrying around picking up gifts in the last few days before Christmas,do you   have any time to think about how much your relatives,or friends will actually value what you   find?WePay,a Website that helps people collect,manage and spend money online,has analysed tons of research,reports and surveys from different sources,and the results were surprising!
  Are Gift Cards a Good Idea?
  Rather than give someone a gift that they might not like,it's better just to pick up a gift card so they can buy what they really want,right?Wrong.This year,2.5billioningiftcardswentunspent.Ofthatamount,1.3 billion went unspent because people didn't bother making the time.Another $ I billion or so was forgotten altogether.
   How Much Do We Really Value the Gifts We're Given?
   The lucky recipient of a gift,like a cashmere sweater,will value it less than the amount it was purchased for.And ladies,contrary to what you might think,place less monetary value on the diamond ring they are given than the guys who have bought it for them.
  What Happens to Our Gifts After They're Given?
  Many complain that the holiday season means shopping and crazily spending money,but studies show that once the big day arrives,we are less focused on gifts than we think.Every year,at least one gift per person is regifted,returned or never even opened
  And How Do We Really Feel About Fruit Cakes?
We all know that no one likes fruit cakes,right?Wrong,once again.Although fruit cakes continue to be taken away behind the rest of the holiday cookies and cakes on the dessert table,one in four people still consider giving them as gifts.
What does this all really mean?To be clear,it's certainly not that you shouldn't enjoy the holiday spirit and feel great about giving gifts to those most important to you.While so many of us are worrying about how much money we're spending and who we still need to buy for,it simply helps to take a step back and rethink what it really means to give a gift.
61.The text is mainly aboutC.
A.a(chǎn) web site that helps people buy gifts

C.People don t bother to buy them.
D.They are more valuable to our friends.
63.During the holidays season,many gifts are regifted,returned or never even opened becauseA.
A.we don't care much about them     
B.they are really useless to us
C.we are too careful about money     
D.we haven't enough place to store them
64.Which of the following is true according to the text?D
A.It is a better idea to give a gift card than a gift.
B.Ladies always treasure the diamond rings given.
C.Fruit cakes are the most popular on the dessert table.
D.Gifts don't always mean what we believe.

12.All over my garden I've planted nothing but roses,because I especially love the flower.A close friend came for a visit the other day.I told her that she should pick a bunch of roses to beautify her bedroom.I promised that the smell of the roses would be  wafted far,far away.
That girl friend of mine,walking into the garden in high spirits,smelt here and there,but in the end she didn't pick a single rose.I said that she could pick many flowers; I told her that I was not a flower farmer and didn't make a living out of them.Saying so,I raised the scissors for the sacrifice of the flowers,but she stopped me,crying no,no,no!
To cut such beautiful roses would hurt one,she said.With her hands seizing at my sleeves,she told me that by no means should they be cut.Roses are the smiling face of the earth,and who could be so iron-hearted as to destroy such a charming smile?
My mind was shocked:the ugly earth,the tough earth,the plain earth-it is for the reason of that smile that it wins the care and pity of people.

56.The writer plants nothing but roses in her garden probably becauseC.
A.she can make money out of them           B.her friends like them
C.she enjoys the roses very much           D.the roses sell well
57.The underlined word"wafted"in Paragraph 1is closest in meaning to"A".
A.given off    B.lost      C.destroyed    D.thrown away
58.Why did the writer's close friend refuse to pick a single rose?B
A.Because the roses were not beautiful.
B.Because she loved the roses very much.
C.Because she did not like this kind of roses.
D.Because the writer did not want to give her any.
59.What is the best title for the passage?D
A.The Pity of People to the Roses             B.A Lover of Flowers
C.A Lovely Rose Garden                        D.The Smiling Face of the Earth.
