Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by five questions. For each question there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.

Passage 1

There are stories about two U.S. presidents, Andrew Jackson and Martin Van Buren, which attempt to explain the American English term OK. We don‘t know if either story is true, but they are both interesting.

The first explanation is based on the fact that President Jackson had very little education. In fact, he had difficulty reading and writing. When important papers came to Jackson, he tried to read them and then had his assistants explain what they said. If he approved of a paper, he would write ―all correct‖ on it. The problem was that he didn‘t know how spell, so what he really wrote was ―ol korekt‖. After a while, he shortened that term to ―OK‖.

The second explanation is based on the place where President Van Buren was born, Kinderhook, New York. Van Buren‘s friends organized a club to help him become President. They called the club the Old Kinderhook Club, and anyone who supported Van Buren was called ―OK‖.

11. The author_______________.

Passage 2

Although the United States covers so much land and the land produces far more food than the present population needs, its people are by now almost entirely an urban society. Less than a tenth of the people are engaged in agriculture and forestry(林业), and most of the rest live in or around towns, small and large. Here the traditional picture is changing: every small town may still be very like other small towns, and the typical small town may represent a widely accepted view of the country, but most Americans do not live in small towns any more. Half the population now lives in some thirty metropolitan areas (large cities with their suburbs) of more than a million people each — a larger proportion than in Germany or England, let alone France. The statistics (统计) of urban and rural population should be treated with caution because so many people who live in areas classified as rural travel by car to work in a nearby town each day. As the rush to live out of town continues, rural areas within reach of towns are gradually filled

A. believes both of the stories B. doesn‘t believe a word of the stories C. is not sure whether the stories are true D. is telling the stories just for fun A. couldn‘t draw up any documents at all B. didn‘t like to read important papers by himself C. often had his assistants sign documents for him D. wasn‘t good at reading or spelling A. was approved of by President Jackson B. was the title of some official documents C. was first used by President Jackson D. was an old way to spell ―all correct‖

A. was the short way to say ―Old Kinderhook Club‖ B. meant the place where President Van Buren was born C. was the name of Van Buren‘s club

D. was used to call Van Buren‘s supporters in the election A. by Van Buren B. in a presidential election

C. to organize the Old Kinderhook Club D. by the members of the ―Old Kinderhook Club‖

12. According to the passage, President Jackson________________.

13. According to the first story, the term ―OK‖________________.

14. According to the second story, the term ―OK‖______________.

15. According to the second story, the term ―OK‖ was first used____________.

with houses, so that it is hard to say at what moment a piece of country becomes a suburb. But more and more the typical American lives in a metropolitan rather than a small town environment.

16. If now America has 250 million people, how many of them are engaged in agriculture and forestry ____________

A. About 25 million.

B. More than 25 million.

C. Less than 25 million.

D. Less than 225 million.

17. Which of the following four countries has the smallest proportion of people living in metropolitan areas _____________

A. United States.

B. Germany.

C. France.

D. England.

18. What‘s the meaning of the word ―metropolitan‖ in the middle of the passage _________ A. Of a large city with its suburbs. C. Of urban areas. _________

Passage 3

If we were asked exactly what we were doing a year ago, we should probably have to say that we could not remember. But if we had kept a book and had written in it an account of what we did each day, we should be able to give an answer to the question.

It is the same in history. Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written account of them. Sometimes men did keep a record of the most important happenings in their country, but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war. Sometimes there was never any written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to write. For example, we know a good deal about the people who lived in China 4,000 years ago, because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them. But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in central Africa, because they had not learned to write.

A. Most small towns become gradually crowded. B. Small towns are still similar to each other.

C. As the traditional picture is changing, towns are different. D. Small towns are turning into large cities. A. Because they are the same.

B. Because the rush takes place too quickly. C. Because the process is gradual.

B. Of small and large towns. D. Of rural areas.

19. According to the passage, what can we learn about small towns in the United States

20. Why is it hard to say when a piece of country becomes a suburb __________

D. Because more and more Americans live in metropolitan areas.

Sometimes, of course, even if the people cannot write, thy may know something of the past.

They have heard about it from older people, and often songs and dances and stories have been made about the most important happenings, and these have been sung and acted and told for many generations. For most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past. This we may call‘ remembered history‘. Some of it has mow been written down. It is not so exact or so valuable to us as written history is, because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing. But where there are no written records, such spoken stories are often very helpful.

21. Which of the following ideas is not suggested in the passage ______

A. ―Remembered history‖, compared with written history, is less reliable.

B. Written records of the past play the most important role in our learning of the human history.

C. A written account of our daily activities helps us to be able to answer many questions.

D. Where there are no written records, there is no history.

22. We know very little about the central Africa 200 years ago because _______ .

A. there was nothing worth being written down at that time B. the people there ignored the importance of keeping a record C. the written records were perhaps destroyed by a fire D. the people there did not know how to write A. history based on a person‘s imagination

B. stories of important happenings passed down from mouth to mouth C. songs and dances about the most important events D. both B and C A. it is written down C. it proves to be true

B. no written account is available

23. ―Remembered history‖ refers to ___________ .

24. ―Remembered history‖ is regarded as valuable only when __________ .

D. people are interested in it

25. The passage suggests that we could have learned much more about our past than we do

now if the ancient people had ___________ .

Passage 4

A. kept a written record of every past event B. not burnt their written records in wars

C. told exact stories of the most important happenings E. made more songs and dances

On a trip to a zoo, perhaps? If you had attended a winter activity in New York a few years ago, you would have seen a whole polar bear club. These "Polar Bears" are people who meet frequently in the winter to swim in freezing cold water. That day, the a

ir temperature was 3℃, and the water temperature was a bit higher. The members of the Polar Bear Club at Coney Island, New York are usually about the age of 60. Members must satisfy two requirements. First, they must get along well with everyone else in the group, this is very important because there are so many different kinds of people in the club. Polar Bears must also agree to swim outdoors at least twice a month from November through February.　　Doctors do not agree about the medical effects of cold-water swimming. Some are worried about the dangers of a condition in which the body's temperature drops so low that finally the heart stops. Other doctors, however, point out that there is more danger of a heart attack during summer swimming because the difference between the air temperature and water temperature is much greater in summer than in winter.The Polar Bears themselves are satisfied with the benefits of cold-water swimming. They say that their favorite form of exercise is very good for the circulatory system(循环系统)because it forces the blood to move fast to keep the body warm. Cold-water swimmers usually turn bright red after a few minutes in the water. A person who turns blue probably has a very poor circulatory system and should not try cold-water swimming.　　The main benefits of cold-water swimming are probably mental. The Polar Bears love to swim year-round; they find it fun and relaxing. As one 70-year-old woman says. "When I go into the water, I pour my troubles into the ocean and let them float away."11. The members of the Polar Bear Club must meet the following requirements except　　that_____.　　A. they should be easy to make friends with　　B. they must swim outdoors at least 8 times in the four cold months　　C. they must agree to swim outdoors from November through February　　D. they must reach the age of 6012. Doctors _____.　　A. encourage people to take part in cold-water swimming actively　　B. point out the possible danger of blood illness during cold-water swimming　　C. believe swimming is helpful both in winter and in summer　　D. have different ideas about the medical effects of cold-water swimming13. According to the passage, some doctors believe it is true that _____.　　A. you are healthy if cold-water swimming turns your skin color blue　　B. cold-water swimming causes more heart attacks in summer than in winter　　C. cold-water swimming can make the body temperature dangerously high　　D. Polar Bears are bears swimming in freezing water14. The Polar Bears like to swim all the year round, for _____.　　A. they can remain young　　B. it is an easy way to keep the body warm in winter　　C. they find it enjoyable and interesting　　D. they might meet fewer troubles in life15. The passage is mainly about _____.　　A. a group of cold-water swimming lovers　　B. the Polar Bears' life in New York　　C. doct

ors' ideas about cold-water swimming　　D. the requirements of the Polar Bear ClubPassage 2Without proper planning, tourism can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants of a country. If tourists create too much traffic, the inhabitants become annoyed and unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely. They forget how much tourism can help the country's economy. It is important to think about the people of a destination country and how tourism affects them. Tourism should help a country keep the customs and beauty that attract tourists. Tourism should also advance the well-being (health and happiness) of local inhabitants.Too much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry. This means that other parts of the country's economy can suffer.On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people can lose) jobs. Businesses can also lose money. It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels, airports, air terminals, first-class roads, and other support facilities needed by tourists attractions. For example, a major international-class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to build. If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel lose money. Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many support facilities as well, including roads to get to the hotel, electricity, sewers to handle waste, and water. All of these support facilities cost money. If they are not used because there are not enough tourists, jobs and money are lost. 16. Which of the following has most probably been discussed in the paragraph that goes before this passage?A) Support facilities are highly necessary.B) Building roads and hotels is essential.C) It is extremely important to develop tourism.D) Planning is of great importance to tourism.17. Too much tourism can cause all these problems EXCEPT ___________.A) pressure on trafficB) a change of tourists' customsC) overcrowdedness of places of interestD) a bad effect on other industries18. Not enough tourism can lead to ______________.A) an increase of unemploymentB) the higher cost of support facilitiesC) a decrease in tourist attractionsD) a rise in price and a fall in pay19. It is good for local people to know well that tourism will ______________.A) use up a large amount of waterB) help establish their customsC) weaken their economyD) help improve their life20. The word "handle" in the last paragraph most probably means ___________.A) deal with B) get in C) take down D) pick upPassage 3Many people with ordinary jobs may dream of long holidays in foreign countries, but they know they couldn't afford them even if they could get enough time off from the company.

However, there are a few businesses which have started schemes to reward employees with long service by giving them a chance to fulfill such ambitions by providing both the time and the money.One company gives every employee over 50 years old and who has been with them for 25 years, six months' holiday on full pay. At the same time additional money can be made available by way of loans, to help them with projects they cannot otherwise offer. Most of the people who have already benefited from the scheme, have used the opportunity to travel to distant places like the Far East or South America and some have spent the money on their favorite hobbies, such as photography.The cost of providing these special holidays is fairly high but the directors feel it is well worthwhile because the employees are greatly refreshed by their long break from the pressures and routines of their jobs. The only problems are that the people concerned tend to have key jobs which can be difficult to fill on a temporary basis for a relatively long time. Besides, some employees find it difficult to re-adjust to the old routine after such a long time away. In addition, one or two people may not feel secure at leaving their job in someone else's hands. On balance, however, there is no doubt that the idea is beneficial to industrial relations and a wonderful reward for long service.21. Many workers would like to ___________.A) dream of long holidays at homeB) spend a long time in unusual placesC) buy a holiday away from homeD) have a long holiday after many years22. One company____________.A) gives money to employees over 25 yearsB) lends staff money to go on holidaysC) allows long holidays to certain staffD) arranges long holidays for old employees23. Most of the employees in the scheme ____________.A) enjoy leisure activities B) develop their hobbiesC) take up photography D) take foreign trips24. The directors feel that _____________.A) the staff get a lot of pleasures from the schemeB) older staff are very enthusiastic about holidaysC) the scheme is more expensive than they expectedD) the scheme is beneficial to staff relations25. One of the problems is that ________________.A) it is difficult to fill a temporary jobB) some employees are afraid of their colleaguesC) it is difficult for some people to re-adjust to the old routine after a long breakD) employees don't feel secure when they are awayPassage 4If U.S. software companies don't pay more attention to quality, they could kiss their business good-bye. Both India and Brazil are developing a world-class software industry. Their weapon is quality and one of their jobs is to attract the top U.S. quality specialists whose voices are not listened to in their country.Already, of the world's 12 software houses that have earned the highest rating in the world, seven are in India. That's

largely because they have used new methodologies rejected by American software specialists. For example, for decades, quality specialists, W. Edwards Deming and J. M. Juran had urged U.S. software companies to change their attitudes to quality. But their quality call mainly fell on deaf ears in the U.S. -but not in Japan. By the 1970s and 1980s, Japan was grabbing market share with better, cheaper products. They used Deming's and Juran's ideas to bring down the cost of good quality to as little as 5% of total production costs. In U.S. factories, the cost of quality then was 10 times as high: 50%. In software, it still is.Watts S. Humphrey spent 27 years at IBM heading up software production and then quality assurance. But his advice was seldom paid attention to. He retired from IBM in 1986. In 1987, he worked out a system for assessing and improving software quality. It has proved its value time and again. For example, in 1990 the cost of quality at Raytheon Electronics Systems was almost 60% of total software production costs. It fell to 15% in 1996 and has since further dropped to below 10%.Like Deming and Juran, Humphrey seems to be wining more praises overseas than at home. The India government and several companies have just founded the Watts Humphrey Software Quality Institute at the Software Technology Park in Chennai, India.Let's hope that U.S. lead in software will not be eaten up by its quality problems.26. What country has more highest-rating companies in the world than any other country has?A. Germany.B. The U.S.C. BrazilD. India27. Which of the following statements about Humphrey is true?A. He is now still an IBM employer.B. He has worked for IBM for 37 years.C. The US pays much attention to his quality advice.D. India honors him highly.28. By what means did Japan grab its large market share by the 1970s and the 1980s?A. Its products were cheaper in price and better in quality.B. Its advertising was most successful.C. The US hardware industry was lagging behind .D. Japan hired a lot of India software specialists.29. What does the founding of the Watts Humphrey Software Quality Institute symbolize?A. It symbolizes the US determination to move ahead with its softwareB. .It symbolizes the India ambition to take the lead in software.C. It symbolizes the Japanese efforts to solve the software quality problem.D. It symbolizes the Chinese policy on importing software.30. What is the writer worrying about?A. Many US software specialists are working for Japan.B. The quality problem has become a worldwide problem.C. The US will no longer be the first software player in the world.D. India and Japan are joining hands to compete with the US.第三部分：词汇和结构31．--- We ______ that you would fix the TV set this week.--- I’m sorry. I ______ to fix it this week, but I’ve been too busy.

Passage 1

Is teaching important? Well, of course it is. There was a time when the necessary knowledge could be taught to the young by family members. But as societies became more complex and division of labor more common, it was impossible for family members to teach the information and skills young people needed to become useful members of the society. As the need for specialists appeared, the job of teaching came into being in our country, and teaching as a job has been of increasing importance over the past one hundred years. Today, we have strict rules for

teachers. We hope all children can go to school. Many things tell us that teaching is indeed an "important" job.

In recent years, there has been an increasing need for teachers to be "responsible". This means that the public expects teachers to succeed in teaching important information to the young. Teachers' salaries today, while not much, certainly are much higher than they were in the past. These increases have come about because people have realized that without enough salaries, people who have abilities will not become teachers. Today almost no one says that "anybody will do" for a teacher. The public expects "quality people" to teach the young, and progress is being made to give salaries that will make people who have abilities become teachers.

1．Before the job of teaching came into being ___.

A. family members had been responsible for the education of the young

B. specialists had been in charge of teaching young people

C. young people had to be self-educated

D. the society had played an important role in educating young people

2．The job of teaching came into being mainly because of___.

A. the development of the society

B. the explosion of information

C. the need for engineers

D. the civilization of human beings

3．Teachers' salaries are raised today in order to ___.

A. show the importance of teaching as a job

B. attract more qualified people to become teachers

C. make teachers-"responsible" in their teaching

D. improve the quality of public teaching

4．"Anybody will do" for a teacher (in paragraph 2) means that____.

A. almost all people want to become teachers

B. a teacher is so highly respected that people all want to help him

C. a teacher wilt do whatever he can for his students

D. the job of teaching is so easy that everybody can do it

5．The main idea of the passage is that____.

A. greater progress has to be made in teaching

B. enough salaries are necessary in making "quality people" become teachers

C. it is important to be successful in teaching the young

D. teaching is a product of the society's division of labor

Task 1

A car is made up of more than 30,000parts. Each part in a new car is as weak as a baby. So a new car requires proper care and servicing. If you’re unfamiliar with the parts, you have to read through the owner’s instructions carefully.

Passage 1

A man got into a train and found himself sitting opposite a woman who seemed to be about thirty－five years old. Soon they began talking to each other, and the man said to her, "Do you have a family?"

"Yes, I have one son," the woman answered.

"Oh, really?" said the man. "Does he smoke?"

"No, he's never touched a cigarette," the woman replied.

"That's good," the man continued. "I don't smoke either. Tobacco is very bad to one's health. And does your son drink wine?"

"Oh, no," the woman answered at once. "He's never drunk a drop of it."

"Then I congratulate you, ma'am," the man said. "And does he ever come home late at night?" "No, never," his neighbor answered. "He goes to bed immediately after dinner every night." "Well," the man said, "he's a wise young man. How old is he?"

"He's six months old today. But he will grow up to be a gentleman," the woman replied proudly. 有个男人上了火车，坐在他对面的是一个看起来35左右的女人。很快他们开始彼此交谈起来，男人对女人说，“你有家庭吗？”

“那我真的祝贺你，女士。”男人继续问道：“那他会晚回吗？”

“不，从不”，他的邻座说道，“他每天晚上一吃完晚饭就睡觉呢。”

Passage 2

A film crew was at the Circle Five Ranch to film a Marlboro commercial. This was in 1868, set up the equipment. The scene included an actor crossing a river on horseback, but when the time came to shoot, the man was too drunk to ride. Someone from the crew saw Winfield and asked him if he would ride the horse for 50 dollars. "Hell," said Winfield, "for 50 bucks, I'll jump that damn horse over the moon!"

To people in many countries, Winfield is just a familiar but nameless face, a simple cowboy with an advertising message about a connection between the West and a brand of cigarettes. Few people know that he is 55, a family man who's been married to the same woman for 37 years and has 5 children and 7 grandchildren. Most surprisingly, he's a real, working cowboy who raises horses in his ranch in Wyoming.

One of the most striking things about the Marlboro Man is that success hasn't changed him much. He says that complete strangers sometimes come up to him and say, "I've met you,know you from somewhere. "Whenever it happens, he says that he gets embarrassed.

这是一部在圆五牧场拍摄的有关万宝路商业的电影。在1868年之前,美国电视还禁止播放香烟广告。达雷尔温菲尔德在剧组负责照看设备。场景原本包括一个演员骑着马过河，但到拍摄时刻，该名男子因喝醉而不能骑马了。有一个船员看到温菲尔德，并问他是否肯为50美元去骑马拍这个广告。 “该死， ”温菲尔德说， “为50美元，我将骑着这匹该死的马穿越月亮！

对于一些国家的人来说，温菲尔德仅仅是一个熟悉的，但无名的脸，一个将西部和香烟的品牌连接起来的平凡牛仔。很少有人知道他是一个55岁并且已经结婚37年的家庭主男，他有5个孩子和7个孙儿女。最令人惊讶的是，他是一个地道的牛仔，在怀俄明州的牧场养着大量的马匹。

有关万宝路男子最引人注目的事情是成功并没有改变他。他说，有时陌生人对他说， “我已经见过你，知道你哪儿来。 ”不论在什么时候，这样的事情发生时„他说，他都会感到尴尬。

2) Marlboro commercials were allowed on television in America before 1868. 万宝路广告在美国1868年被允许在电视上播出。

A：T B：F

2. The word "prohibited" in the first paragraph mean "forbidden".第一段中的"prohibited"意思是禁止。

A：T B：F

3. When they filmed the ad, Winfield was too drunk. 当他们拍摄广告时，温菲尔德喝多了。 A：T B：F

4. From the passage, we know that Winfield was a rich man.从这篇文章中，我们知道温菲尔德是个

富有的人。

A：T B：F

5. When people recognized Winfield, he felt uncomfortable.当人们认出温菲尔德，他觉得不舒服。 A：T B：F

Passage 3

In the world, soccer or football is the most popular sport. This is because many countries have wonderful teams for the World Cup. The World Cup is held every four years.

To remember 2002 FIFA World Cup, children from different countries and more than 60

children from Japanese schools came together and spent three weekends drawing a big picture called "Dream World Cups" in Japan. The children drew animals, flowers and people playing soccer under a blue bright sky. They wished each football team good luck by drawing the flags of all the countries that will take part in the World Cup in Japan and South Korea. The picture was put up in a park near a playground in Yokohama. Some football teams will have games there.

Are you a football fan？The World Cup makes more and more people interested in football. Teenagers like playing and watching football. Many of them love some football stars so much that they get the pictures of their favourite players on the walls of their rooms. That is the way to show their love for the World Cup as children in Japan.

在世界上，足球是最受欢迎的运动项目。这是因为很多国家在世界杯上有非常优秀的足球队。世界杯足球赛每4年举办一次。

记得2002年世界杯，在日本，来自各国的儿童和60名日本学生一同花了3个周末绘制一张名叫：“梦幻世界杯”的图画。孩子们画了动物、花以及在蓝天下踢足球的人们。他们希望每一支代表各个国家的球队来参加日本韩国世界杯的球队都有好运。这张图画被挂在横滨足球场附近的公园里。一些足球队会在这里进行比赛。

你是足球迷吗？世界杯比赛让越来越多的人们对欣赏和参加青年足球更感兴趣。他们当中的很多人非常喜欢一些明星以至于他们收集很多他们最喜欢的球员的照片挂在屋子的墙上。这是日本儿童表达对世界杯喜爱的方式！

Passage 4

No one is glad to hear that his body has to be cut open by a surgeon（外科医生） and part of it taken out. Today, however, we needn't worry about feeling of pain during the operation. The sick person falls into a kind of sleep, and when he awakes, the operation is finished. But these happy conditions are fairly new. It is not many years since a man who had to have an operation felt all his pain.

Long ago, operation had usually to be done while the sick man could feel everything. The sick man had to be held down on a table by force while the doctors did their best for him. He could feel all the pain if his leg or arm was being cut off, and his fearful cries filled the room and the hearts of those who watched.

Soon after 1770, Joseph Priestley discovered a gas which is now called "laughing gas". Laughing gas became known in America. Young men and women went to parties to try it. Most of them spent their time laughing, but one man at a party, Horace Wells, noticed that people didn't seem to feel pain when they were using this gas. He decided to make an experiment on himself. He asked a friend to help him.

Wells took some of the gas, and his friend pulled out one of Well's teeth. Wells felt no pain at all. As he didn't know enough about laughing gas, he gave a man less gas than he should have. The man cried out with pain when his tooth was being pulled out.

Wells tried again, but this time he gave too much of the gas, and the man died. Wells never forgot this terrible event.

当一个人不得不被外科医生开刀从身体里取出一部分的时候谁也不会高兴。然而，今天我们不再害怕手术中的疼痛。病人会处于熟睡状态，当他醒来时，手术已经结束了。而且这些好的条件已经深受大众所信任。做手术可以不再忍受其中的痛苦，这种情况已经好多年了。

很久以前，手术的全过程病人都有知觉。当医生给病人治病时，他们总会被强制绑在板凳上。如果他的腿或者胳膊被拒掉，所有疼痛他都得忍受，他痛苦的哭声传遍了整个屋子，也刺痛着关心他的人们的心。

很快，1770年以后，Joseph Priestley发现了一种气体，这种气体现在被称为“笑气”。在美国，笑气被广泛流传。青年人们在参加聚会时尝试了笑气。大部分人都在笑，但是party中有一个人，Horace Wells，注意到当他们使用了笑气时，他们并没有显得痛苦。他决定在自己身上做个实验。他叫了个朋友帮他。服了些笑气，他的朋友给他拔了一颗牙，一点也没有感到疼。由于他对笑气的了解还不充分，他给一个人服用了比应该用的量少一些的笑气。当他给这个人拔牙时，他因为疼痛而大哭。又试了一次，但是这次他给这个人服用过量，他死了。Wells永远都不能忘记这次恐怖的事件。

Passage 5

No one knows who made the first ice cream. Some people think that water ices and milk ices may have been made by the Chinese between three thousand and four thousand years ago. In time, the dish reached India. The Indians, in turn, may have passed on the secret to the Arabs and Persians. The Persians called their dish Sharbat, from which our word sherbet（冰冻果子露） comes.

Marco Polo, an Italian who traveled widely in the thirteenth century, noted that he found the Chinese had long been making ices out of fruit juices and milk. From the fourteenth century on, ices became popular, first in Venice and then throughout Italy.

In 1533, when Catherine de Medicis left Italy to marry the future King Henry Ⅱof France, she took her cooks with her. They made desserts the French had never tasted before. Among them was "ice cream". For each day of the wedding festivities（庆祝活动，庆典） Catherine's cooks prepared a different flavor of her favorite dessert-"ice cream."

At first ice cream was a luxury in France. Only rich people had money to buy it. Then, in 1660, a young man from Sicily, Francisco Procopio, arrived in Paris. He opened a shop that sold ice cream at prices people could afford. Procopio's"ice-cream parlor " became so popular that other shops were opened.

About 1640, King Charles I introduced ice cream to England. He had heard it was popular in Italy and France. He served ice cream for dessert at a banquet. The surprise dish was a great success. The King ordered his cook to keep the recipe for ice cream a secret. Charles felt that only royalty should serve the dessert. But the secret soon leaked out. Ice cream quickly became popular in England too.

没有人知道是谁制造第一块冰淇淋。一些人认为，用水做冰及用牛奶做冰，是中国人在三千年或四千年前发明的，传到印度。印第安人通过秘密的渠道传给阿拉伯人和波斯人。波斯人称他们是莎芭，用我们的话讲，叫冰冻果子露。
