Jenise: I love peas and beans more than most people, so tofu is a natural choice for me. My Chinese friend Annabelle loves them too, and tells me that soy beans contain an ingredient not present in any other food source, or at least in that concentration, that helps prevent breast cancer. When we share a big bowl of these, we eat with abandon "for medicinal purposes"! I like it plain although there may be many different ways to prepare it and it may cure other diseases.
Lee: In fact, I was probably preprogrammed to like it: as a kid one of my favorite books was Toru and the Tofu (hope I’m remembering the title right), a story about a young Tokyo boy, named Toru, who was given the assignment, his first, of going to the neighborhood tofu maker’s by himself and bringing back some freshly made cubes for dinner. I can still recall Toru’s unique way of getting it home intact (with a jar filled with water).It all seemed very strange to the five year old me in semi-rural Southern California.
Hoke: It’s great in spicy Sichuan style soups, especially with fish, but I like it fired quickly to give a crisp exterior whilst retaining a moist, soft interior. Steaming is another option, with a pork and prawn mince (with spring onion) on top of each cube. The thing that I love most is the texture really good tofu is just amazing in the mouth, poised as it is between solidity and fluidity. I’m definitely a fan.
Nyby: It’s sort of weird to me. You go in to one of those "Mock Vegetarian" restaurants only to find everything on the menu "mock"—mock chicken, mock beef, mock pork, etc. Now whatever you order, it’s tofu molded into something that looks like that particular meat. I don’t know about you, but if I’m eating a vegetarian I don’t need to go through a fantasy of pretending I’m eating a veal cutlet or a pork chop or a chicken breast. Is this to delude some-one, or distract them from thinking they are eating vegetarian food?
Robin: Precisely because it is so "tasteless", I eat it like a madman: I like the way it picks up the flavors of the dishes it’s served with. I can enjoy it in lots of different cuisine, in moderate quantities in relation to other ingredients in each dish. If you try them and tell me that you don’t think they have much flavor, I’ll have to disagree because that’s not true of tofu. The flavor’s mild and you can combine that with the hottest spices in the world, which for me illustrates its most endearing attribute. It does a reasonably good job of absorbing a great many flavors.
Note: there are two extra statements.Statements:
A. Real or unreal, who knows?
B. Don’t deceive yourself and others: tofu is no meat.
C. Amazing texture, I enjoy tofu inside out.
D. I am constantly at war with tofu.
E.Tofu hasn’t got a unique taste of its own, but it goes well with any food.
F. Eating tofu is a strong childhood memory.
G. Tofu is the best medicine.

选项
答案
G
解析
在第一段短文中说“soy beans contain an ingredient not present in any other food source,or at least in that concentration,that helps prevent breast cancer.(大豆含有一种其他任何食物原料所没有的成分,或者至少其中该成分的含量高于其他任何食物原料,这种成分有助于预防乳癌。)”说了豆腐的医疗功能,只有G与这段话的意思一致,所以选G项。
