Passage 26

(山西省山大附中2010届高三12月月考)

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　 16　 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 　17　 how fabulous(丰盛的)a real Chinese banquet could be．The first six or seven dishes seemed to 　18　 the table, with plates dangerously　 19 　one on top of another．I thought this vast 　　20 　of food was the total number of dishes to be served，and I started eating 　　21　 ．Everyone else just 　22　 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 　23 　，plus soups，side dishes，and desserts．There was enough to feed a whole army．No 　24 　my fellow guests had had only a few　 25 　of each dish；they knew what was still to come．But I was already so 　26 　that I could only 　　27　 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　 　28　 　of many westerners．Stomach，ears，tongue，tail，hoof and lungs are all likely to　 　29　 　on the dinner table in front of you．The first time I saw a three-year-old kid 　30　 　chewing a chicken's head I had bad dreams for weeks．

These days I enjoy that sort of food myself． 31　 ，there are other kinds of foods that have taken longer for me to 　32 　．The infamous(臭名昭著的) choudoufu is a(n)　 33 　．(The name says it all：“stinky tofu”．) Just when I got used to it,　 I found another 　34　 on a trip to Hunan：deep-fried choudoufu，a horrible black substance that looked and 　　35　 about as appetizing as a burnt tennis shoe．Maybe I'll get used to that, too-some day．
