Cecilia Chiang, whose San Francisco restaurant, the Mandarin, introduced American diners
in the 1960s to the richness and variety of authentic Chinese cuisine, died on Wednesday at her
home in San Francisco.
Ms. Chiang was not a chef, nor was she a likely candidate to run a restaurant. She was born
near Shanghai in 1920 as the seventh daughter in a wealthy family. After her parents died, Cecilia
managed the businesses' finances while still in her teens.
Ms. Chiang came to the United States from China to flee the Japanese during World War
Ⅱ ， traveling nearly 700 miles on foot. Once in San Francisco, she met two Chinese
acquaintances who wanted to open a restaurant. Ms. Chiang agreed to put up a huge deposit (存
款). But when the two women quit, Ms. Chiang found that the deposit was not refundable (可退还
的). She took a deep breath and decided to open the restaurant herself. “I began to think that if I
could create a restaurant with Westernstyle service and the dishes that I was most familiar with—the delicious food of northern China—maybe my little restaurant would succeed，” she wrote in
her book.
The Mandarin, which was opened in 1962 as a 65seat restaurant, introduced customers to
mainly Sichuan, Shanghai and Canton dishes. The early days were difficult. But little by little,
Chinese diners, and a few Americans, came regularly. Overnight the tables filled and became a
huge success.
Ms. Chiang continued to work as a restaurant consultant into her 90s. “I think I changed
what average people know about Chinese food，” Mrs. Chiang wrote. “They didn't know China
was such a big country.”

A．In the 1920s. B．In the 1930s.

B．How Ms. Chiang earned her deposit.
C．What Ms. Chiang wrote in her book.
D．Why Ms. Chiang opened her restaurant.
3．What do we learn about The Mandarin?

2022·三明一中月考 记叙文 341词 ★★☆☆☆
“I saw it first，” Amy said, as she ripped the old leather wallet out of Charlie's hands.
Without saying a word, as if they both understood that this was a secret they didn't want to share
with anyone, they slipped into the alley, where no one could see them look inside.
“There's got to be a million dollars here！” Charlie blurted out, when they saw the pile of
hundreddollar bills. Amy, the more realistic of the two, did a quick estimate, thumbing through the
wad of cash. “More like thousands，” she said, her voice shaking in disbelief.
They'd found the wallet in a flowerbed by the sidewalk, when Charlie dropped his cell phone
while he was trying to talk and eat a slice of pepperoni pizza at the same time. Amy stuffed the
wallet into her backpack and pulled Charlie along by his elbow toward her house. As they rushed
toward Viceroy Avenue, they talked excitedly about what they could do with the money － buy
gifts for parents and friends, get new clothes, travel to the rainforest in Costa Rica, and adopt a
whale. It looked like all of their dreams would come true. For the last block, however, they didn't
talk. Each began to suspect that the other one was silently adding to the list of things they could
buy.
They finally reached Amy's house, but instead of going inside, they walked around the houseto the back porch. They opened the wallet and counted the money into piles of ten. The total was
$2400 － more money than either of them had ever seen. Then they both started talking at once.
Who lost it? Their moods shifted, sinking from the high of being rich for fifteen minutes to
resigning themselves to what they must do next. In the wallet's clear plastic compartment, there
was a driver's license. They knew what they had to do. Although they would lose their newlyfound
treasure, in a way, they felt relieved.
5．Where did Amy and Charlie find the wallet?
A．In an alley.
B．In a backpack.
C．On the sidewalk.
D．Among some flowers.
6．In paragraph 2, why was Amy's voice shaking?
A．She was afraid that they would be seen by others.
B．She was disappointed there wasn't a million dollars.
C．She was fearful that Charlie would tell someone else.
D．She felt nervous because she'd never seen so much money.
7．How did the children's mood changed on their way to Amy's house?
A．From happy to angry.
B．From relieved to worried.
C．From excited to skeptical.
D．From nervous to disappointed.
8．What did the children decide to do at the end of the story?
A．To keep the money a secret from others.
B．To return the wallet to its rightful owner.
C．To put the wallet back where they found it.
D．To buy many different things with the money.
