Pizza is almost everyone's favorite food. Recently, it has even received recognition from UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization)!
 1 
Pizza has been a part of Italian culture for centuries. In the 1700s and the 1800s, the city of Naples in Italy was an independent kingdom, known for its large working class. Pizza began as a “poor men's food”—as a way to feed people in poverty quickly and at a low cost.
In 1889, King Umberto Ⅰ and Queen Margherita visited Naples, which had by then come under a unified Italy.  2 . The queen's favorite turned out to be pizza topped(把……放在……的上面) with cheese, tomato, and basil—it is no surprise that it came to be known as Pizza Margherita!
When Italians from Naples moved to the United States, they brought more than just their desire for a better future.  3 , and pizza became popular in the United States before it did in Italy—the country where it was born. It was only after World War Ⅱ that Italians picked up on pizza.
The art of pizza spinning
The skills at pizza making have been passed down in the city for generations, and those who know them are called pizzaiuoli.  4 ;they need both talent and practice to learn to prepare, roll, and bake the dough(生面团) properly.
According to UNESCO, about 3,000 pizzaiuoli work in Naples right now.  5 . In the academy, 120 students each year can train to become pizzaiuoli themselves. Some shops even celebrate by handing out free slices of pizza on the streets of the city.
A.The history of pizza
B.The popular types of pizza
C.Pizzaiuoli is a select group of people
D.Pizza shops opened in New York and other cities
E.On their visit, the royal couple enjoyed pizza from a local eatery(餐馆)
F.In the city, there is also a pizza museum and an academy
G.On the streets of Naples, Italy, tradition is found in the art of pizza spinning

Whenever I travel and get on the plane, I usually carry two bags. A big handbag or a tote, and a small shoulder bag. The small shoulder bag is where I put the important stuff, like my passport, so I could take it with me wherever I go. I had a 7-hour layover in Stockholm for my flight to Barcelona. It was enough time to visit the old city and come back to the airport. I was on my way to purchase a train ticket when I realized my shoulder bag was missing...I have never been so scared in my life. I felt stuck. Without a passport, I couldn't go back home to the US and I couldn't move forward to my final destination in Spain either.
The only thing I could think of was to go back to the arrival gate. I went back to the sitting area and looked around, but it was nowhere to be found. I saw the lady who sat beside me on the plane and asked her if she had seen it and unfortunately, she said no. There was a deli(熟食店) stand right next to the safety fence in the waiting area, so I asked the deli clerk if he had seen anything and to my surprise, he said yes! He said he had given it to an airport employee though. I explained to the first airport employee that I saw what happened, and she immediately called someone for me, as she was already aware of the situation.
After a short session of waiting, I saw two men in uniform walking towards me and one of them holding my bag. He asked me a couple of questions just to make sure I was the right person and after I answered correctly, he handed it back to me...I was so grateful! I could not stop thanking him. I realized the reason why I lost it was that the strap broke off and it fell on the floor. I went back to the food clerk to thank him too and to ask how he found it.
Paragraph 1:
The food clerk looked at me and told me about that.                        
                          
                          
                          
Paragraph 2:
After I opened the bag, I saw everything still in the bag, including the $500 in cash.

Paragraph 1:
The food clerk looked at me and told me about that. He said someone picked a bag up on the floor right in front of the stand, waiting for the owner for a long time. However, no one came to get it. So she had to hand it to him. When he saw the employee coming near, he gave it to her. I could not believe the honesty I just witnessed. Fortunately, I met it in my life. How happy I felt at that time.
Paragraph 2:
After I opened the bag, I saw everything still in the bag, including the$500 in cash. I understood them returning my passport out of pity, but they did not have to return the cash. The three different people had a chance to take it, the person who found it on the floor, the food clerk, and the airport employee. However, none of them did so. I was very fortunate that there were so many kind people. Therefore, let's be kind, and the world will be more wonderful.Unit 2Iconic Attractions同步巩固练-part 1

Today, the economy of Italy is stronger than that in the past.  2  Today, manufacturing and tourism are the main sources of income. There are some big companies, but Italy has many smaller companies, too.  3  The southern part does not offer many manufacturing jobs, so it is not very prosperous.
Italy is a member of the European Union,an organization of joint countries for better trade. The currency, or money they use is called “euro”.  4  Food and good meals are important to Italians. Popular foods include pasta, risotto, minestrone and pizza. McDonald's is also popular there.

The Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco,California is one of the world's most beautiful bridges. It is also one of the most visited places in the world. More than 1,800 hundred million vehicles have used the bridge since it opened more than 70 years ago.
The bridge was painted “International Orange” because that color went well with the natural surroundings. The color is also easier to see in the heavy fog that often covers the area. But the Golden Gate Bridge was not named for its orange color. It was named for the body of water that it crosses,the Golden Gate Strait.
The Golden Gate Strait is the entrance to the San Francisco Bay from the Pacific Ocean. The Golden Gate Bridge links the city of San Francisco with Marin County,California.
Planning for the bridge began in the 1920s when the area around San Francisco was growing. People living in the area needed another way to get to the city besides small ferries(渡船).
Joseph Strauss was the chief engineer for the project. Mr.Strauss demanded the strongest safety protections in the history of bridge building. These included the first use of “hard hats” to protect the workers' heads and special glasses to protect their eyes.
A special safety net was suspended(挂)under the bridge. This net saved the lives of 19 men during the construction. However,11 other workers were killed when they fell off the bridge through the net. Still,this was a new safety record for the time.
The Golden Gate Bridge opened in 1937.It extends 1,280 meters across the water. The total length is 2,737 meters. It was the largest suspension bridge(吊桥)in the world until 1964. That is when the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge opened in New York City. Today,the Golden Gate Bridge is the ninth longest suspension bridge in the world.
1.The Golden Gate Bridge was named after    .
A.the local climate
B.the color of its paint
C.the strait it crosses
D.its natural surroundings
2.How did people cross the Golden Gate Strait before the bridge was built
A.By plane. B.By boat.
C.By road. D.By train.
3.What do we know about Joseph Strauss
A.He attached importance to the workers' safety.
B.His safety measures were not of practical value.
C.He built the first suspension bridge in the world.
D.He demanded strong measures to ensure the safety of the bridge.
4.The purpose of suspending a special safety net was to    .
A.protect the environment
B.make construction easier
C.prevent workers from falling
D.save building materials from falling

A message stick was a form of ancient and often non-verbal communication that originated in Australia, particularly among Aboriginal people. It consisted of a wooden stick inscribed(刻) with designs and symbols. These objects were relayed by couriers (信使) between various regions and tribes and thus functioned as a means of cross-cultural communication. In modern times, a message stick might still be used for communication purposes, or it might serve as an Aboriginal cultural symbol containing important and significant designs.
“Aboriginal” is a term that refers to people who are believed to be the first known inhabitants of a region and in this case, it is used to describe several subgroups of native Australians. Each group might have its own unique customs and languages. They were often divided by tribes, so these groups needed a means to communicate. Message sticks were first devised for this purpose.
The stick itself was often made of the wood of native Australian trees such as black wattles. Messages were placed on the sticks using a variety of methods, including carving, painting or burning symbols into the wood. The markings usually consisted of wordless symbols that had to be translated by the courier. This messenger was thus usually a physically fit younger man who had the mental sharpness to properly convey message details.
Message sticks functioned as a sort of neutral territory between tribes. Couriers were granted safe passage and safe harbor, even if they came from an enemy land. Sometimes, the method of delivery consisted of a single courier carrying a message stick from tribe to tribe. Other methods included one tribe began a passing process amongst tribes, with each tribe using its own courier to convey the message to the next tribe.
This object also has survived as part of Australian cultural celebrations. Some schools, for example, design and transport message sticks as a means of learning about the past. In addition, the term “message stick” is often used in Australian lingo as a reference to other communication forms such as newspapers or radio broadcasts.
5.For what purpose did Aboriginal people use a message stick
A.To convey messages secretly.
B.To give identification of a messenger.
C.To show Aboriginal designs and symbols.
D.To make communication across different tribes.
6.What is the main idea of the second paragraph
A.What “Aboriginal” really means.
B.Why message sticks were created.
C.What native Australians' customs were.
D.How native Australians lived by groups.
7.What would happen if a courier entered an enemy tribe
A.He would be killed.
B.He would be let go.
C.He would be driven out.
D.He would be greatly respected.
8.Why do some Australian schools design and transport message sticks
A.To study the Aboriginal language.
B.To refer to newspapers and radios.
C.To learn about Aboriginal history.
D.To communicate among themselves.

Located to the south of the equator, below many other countries on the globe, Australia is often  1  (informal) referred to as “down under”.
A lot of typical Australian food is originally British. The influence of Asian cultures,on the other hand, led to the  2 (introduce) of bean curd and Asian herbs, along with Australian versions of foods like the Chinese-inspired dim sim.

When you visit Kinderdijk, one of the most visited villages in the Netherlands, you will step right into the middle of Dutch history.
Kinderdijk is located in the Alblasserwaard where the Lek and Noord rivers meet together. Much of the village is near or even below sea level. Although there are canals and dykes(堤), the lowlands of the village are still at risk of flooding. Among the most deadly floods was Saint Elisabeth's flood in 1421, which killed thousands after the dykes broke in several places. To deal with this kind of problem, the Kinderdijk windmills(风车)were built around 1740 to move water from the lower areas to higher ground and into the river.
Nineteen of the 20 Kinderdijk windmills remain and were listed as a World Heritage Site in 1997. The windmills line the canals between the two rivers. Of the 19 windmills, 16 still have millers who live inside and control the huge sails (翼板)in the wind. These windmills continue to help manage the Netherlands' ongoing fight to stay above water.
For tourists, boat tours are offered along the canals and walkways leading from the visitor center to the windmills. Two windmills serve as museums, filled with old millers' items and photos. You can climb up inside to see how the windmills work. The windmills also are working, so be prepared to feel the whole building shake when the sails turn in the wind.
Each year, about 500,000 people visit the Kinderdijk windmills and the buildings have become a must-see on any trip to the Netherlands. “There are some windmills in the north of Amsterdam that were built for tourists, but we're a historical site where tourists come, so it's the other way around,” says Kinderdijk communications manager Peter Paul Klapwijk. “Tourism is a good way to support our site.”
