For example, he once saw a man whose body was __24__ with tattoos(文身). That man was strong and walked proudly. James imagined his __25__ people up, sometimes with sticks and sometimes with his hands, speaking __26__ words each time he opened his mouth. A troublemaker, perhaps, James __27__ to himself.

Sometimes James felt __28__ for judging others this way, but that feeling was __29__ and never really lasted.

A second later, James’ eyes naturally moved across to the lady’s right foot. And there, he got an even bigger __36__. ----It was a flat shoe. She was not vain; she had a birth defect(缺陷) ----uneven length of her legs. If anything, she deserved __37__ and understanding, certainly not blame, not even mental ones.

YOUR mom might cook a bowl of noodles for you on your birthday. But in the US, a mom makes a cupcake for her children on their birthday.
Cupcakes are small, round cakes topped with frosting (糖霜). It has been an American tradition that moms bring cupcakes to the classroom to celebrate their child’s birthday.
But recently some doctors have called for this to be banned. They believe cupcakes contribute to child obesity.
Despite their good intentions, however, some people believe that experts are interfering (妨碍) with American culture. The cupcake is seen as American as apple pie — only prettier.
According to Marion Nestle, a professor of nutrition at New York University, the cupcake is the most democratic (民主的) of desserts. As they are small enough for one person, you don’t have to share your cupcake with anyone — it’s all yours. They are also all the same size, so there can’t be any cries of “she got the bigger piece!”
Each bite can taste different depending on how much icing you have. It is a lesson in self- determination. Some people eat only a little of the frosting every time, others have it all in just one bite.
In recent years, eating a cupcake has become as trendy as having a cup of Starbucks coffee.
Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton jokingly promised on a talk show that if she was elected president, she would give everyone a cupcake on her birthday.
Ruth Reichl, editor-in-chief of Gourmet magazine, explains that the rise of the cupcake is very much about going back to American national identity in food, which is all about comfort. “People want to think about when they and their country were innocent,” she said.
【小题1】According to the passage, it has been an American tradition that ___________.

A.the family holds a party for children on their birthday
B.a mom cooks a bowl of noodles for her children on their birthday
C.a mom makes a cupcake for her children on their birthday and brings it to the classroom
D.parents go travelling with their children on their birthday
【小题2】Why do doctors ask people to ban cupcakes on children’s birthday?
A.Because they themselves don’t like cupcakes.
B.Because they think cupcakes are not so delicious.
C.Because they believe cupcakes will cause cries of “She got the bigger piece”.
D.Because they believe cupcakes are one of the causes to make children become fat.
【小题3】What cannot be inferred according to Marion Nestle?
A.The cupcake is more democratic than any other desserts in the US.
B.The cupcake is too small to share with others.
C.The sizes of cupcakes are the same so it’s equal to everyone.
D.Cupcakes will lead to child obesity so they should be banned.
【小题4】The underlined word “trendy” in paragraph 7 probably means ________.
A.popular B.gentleC.deliciousD.different
【小题5】Why did the writer mention Hillary Clinton and Ruth Reichl?
A.To arouse the readers’ attention to banning the tradition of making cupcakes.
B.To show that cupcakes are becoming a popular way to show kindness and comfort.
C.To make a comparison between them in order for readers to remember them.
D.To give readers some idea of cupcakes so as to better understand the American culture
