问题     My interest in Chinese food started years ago, when I was a young reporter for the Washington Post. Our office wasn’t far from Chinatown, where I found some very good Chinese restaurants.
    The first time I ever ate Chinese food I loved it. I noticed the fresh taste of the meat and vegetables. When I learned more about the food, 1 began to understand why it has this special feature.
    Many years ago, China had an energy crisis (危机) because it lost much of its wood due to overpopulation and poor management of its forests. This loss was very bad for the country, of course, but it turned out to be very good for the food. Wood became very expensive and hard to get, so the Chinese had to either find a substitute (替代物) for their valuable wood, or learn how to use it better. There weren’t any substitutes so people found ways to economize.
    In order to economize in cooking, they had to use very little wood. So they started cutting their meat and vegetables into small pieces before they put them in the hot oil. That way, the food cooked faster and they saved their fuel. The food prepared in this way kept its fresh flavor(味道)—and it’s this flavor that attracts people from other countries to the art of Chinese cooking.
This text is mainly about______.
选项 A、what caused Chinese food to taste fresh
B、how Chinese food is cooked in the US
C、when the author started to make Chinese food
D、why most foreigners like cooking Chinese food
答案A
解析 主旨题。题干意为“这篇文章主要介绍——。”文章第二段首先提到作者注意到了肉和蔬菜新鲜的味道。第三段讲述了中国的一次能源危机和人们想办法来节约能源。第四段讲到人们为此采用的烹饪方法。同时指出，正是这种方法使得食物保留了新鲜的味道。由此可以推断，本文主要介绍了中餐味道新鲜的原因。故A为正确答案。
