Answer 1

答案：B;A;B;D;B
解析：

(1) 读完全文后，可知短文介绍了一种山西食品，由肉、蔬菜和一些中药做成的一种特殊的汤。A项过于片面。而C、D项均未在文中提及，故选B。 (2) 由文中的“you must call it brains because of its shape and colour.”可知这种食品是因其形状和颜色而得名。 (3) 由“And your restaurant should be renamed after my mother.”可得出该题答案为B，renamed after sb.意为“以某人的名字命名”。 (4) 由文章的第二、三自然段可知，这种食品是一个名叫Fu Shan的人为了给他久病的母亲治病而发明的。故正确选项为D。 (5) 由文章第一段的最后一句便可知道，这种食品之所以在山西流行，不仅仅因为它是一种食品，更因为它不寻常的名字和丰富的营养。
