【解析】

短文主要介紹了冰淇淋有著悠久而有趣的歷史。最早的冰淇淋產(chǎn)生于幾個世紀(jì)前的中國。后來傳到了意大利。大約1660年，在巴黎的咖啡店里，冰淇淋很受歡迎。冰激凌在18世紀(jì)初被帶到美國，很快就成了美國人的最愛。1851年，雅各布·弗魯塞爾在馬里蘭州的巴爾的摩開了第一家冰淇淋工廠，她的生意很快就傳到了其他各州。今天在美國，冰淇淋不僅是一種食物，也是一種生活方式。

【1】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中的句子“The earliest ice cream was eaten in China many centuries ago. People at that time would put orange juice on the ice or get something cool to drink.”最早的冰淇淋是幾個世紀(jì)前在中國吃的。那時人們會把橙汁放在冰上，或者喝點涼的東西。故答案為A。

【2】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中的句子“Most of the shops were owned by Italians. Among them, the first successful one belonged to（ 屬于）a man named Francesco Procopio.”可知，巴黎第一家成功的咖啡店的老板是個意大利人。故答案為C。

【3】詞義猜測題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的句子“Before ice cream was sold in stores, it was made and kept at a very low temperature.” 在冰淇淋在商店里銷售之前，它是在非常低的溫度下制作和保存的。因此冰淇淋應(yīng)該放在冰柜里，故答案為B。

【4】判斷正誤題。根據(jù)“Ice cream was brought to America in the early 1700s”冰激凌在18世紀(jì)初被帶到美國，“1700年冰淇淋來到白宮”的說法是錯誤的；根據(jù)“Nancy Johnson, an American woman who was good at machines, invented the ice cream freezer in 1846. Five years later. Jacob Flusell opened the first ice cream factory in Baltimore, Maryland．”可知，第一家冰淇淋工廠是在1851年開辦的，“1846年，許多冰淇淋工廠開業(yè)”的說法是錯誤的；根據(jù)短文最后一段“Today in the United States, ice cream is not only a kind of food, but also a way of life.”今天在美國，冰淇淋不僅是一種食物，也是一種生活方式。“今天的冰淇淋對美國人賦予了不同的含義”。故正確答案為C。

【5】標(biāo)題歸納題。短文主要介紹了冰淇淋的發(fā)展歷史。故答案為A。

標(biāo)題歸納題是閱讀理解中常見的一個題型，這類題主要是測試學(xué)生對一篇文章或一段文字的深層理解程度及在速讀中準(zhǔn)確把握文章主旨大意的能力。一般針對某一語段或某一語篇的主題標(biāo)題或目的設(shè)題。這類題通常圍繞一個中心思想展開，一些文章一開頭便展示出文章的中心思想，第一段常常是內(nèi)容的梗概，同時又表達了中心思想，也有一些文章的中心思想貫穿全文，并沒有用一句話明確表達出來，這就要求學(xué)生學(xué)會歸納概括。每個段落往往也由一個主題句或幾個陳述句構(gòu)成，它們在句中的位置不同，有時在開頭，首先點明本段大意，有時在結(jié)尾，總結(jié)本段大意。例如第5小題，從文章第一句就可以知道本文的一個核心話題就是介紹冰淇淋的發(fā)展歷程，故答案選A。
