问题 Which of the following statements is nearly identical in meaning with the sentence "they ate until you would expect them to burst" in the second paragraph?
Immigrant groups, when they got settled down in the United States, still have had their own sense of self-identity because ______.

选项 A、their foods are easily identified among all the foods Americans eat
B、their foods stand out in sharp contrast to foods of other countries
C、they know pretty well what elements of American food are of their own countries’ origin
D、they know pretty well how their foods contribute to American cuisine

答案C

解析 由题干中immigrant groups定位到原文第三段前两句Other immigrant groups added their own touches to the preparation of our New World food products. The groups that came still have a special sense of self-identity through their ancestral heritage, but they see themselves as Americans.以及最后一句The various immigrant groups continue to add flavor to the pot, all right, but you can pick out the individual flavors easily.[精析] 原因目的题[考频:24]。在美国定居之后,移民仍能保持自己的身份,根据理解,要想保持自己的特色最根本的就是不能失去自己特有的东西,即使是这种东西已经融入了美国的melting pot中。所以C)为正确答案。[避错] A)“在美国人吃的食品中,他们的食品很容易被辨认出来”,根据原文意思,不是他们的食品很容易被辨认出来,而是他们食品的独有特色(即使溶入美国食品中)容易辨认出来,故排除A);B)“他们的食品与其他国家的食品有着鲜明的对比”,这里强调了他们食品自成一体,与原文意思差别大,故要排除;D)中强调“他们很清楚他们的食品对美国烹饪所做的贡献”,文中也未提到,故排除此选项。
