In order to find Asia they had to find a way past South America. The man who eventually found the way from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific was Ferdinand Magellan.Magellan sailed from Seville in August 1519 with five ships and about 280 men. Fourteen months later, after spending a severe winter on the coast of Patagonia, he discovered the channel which is now called Magellan’s Strait. In November 1520, after many months of dangers from rocks and storms, during which two ships were lost, the three remaining ships entered the ocean on the other side of South America.They then continued, hoping to reach Asia. But they did not see any land until they reached the islands off the coast of Asia. Before they arrived at these islands, later known as the Philippines, his men were dying of starvation. While they were staying in the Philippines, Magellan was killed in battle. The remaining officers then had to get back to Spain. They decided to sail round Africa.

Buddhist priests（教士）were expected to eat only vegetables，and tofu (豆腐)，made from the soybean(大豆)，was a very important food in their diet. When Buddhism was introduced from China，tofu was also brought to Japan.Tofu developed in different ways in China and Japan. While the Chinese often changed the taste of tofu by mixing it with strongly-flavored vegetables or meat，the Japanese preferred to eat it using only a simple sauce. Even now，traditional Japanese cooking preserves the original delicacy(美味) of tofu，though the way it is served may change from season to season. In summer，for example，it is simply served cold，while in winter it is often eaten as part of a hot dish.The soybean was introduced to the West in the 18th century，but little interest was taken in it. Only scientists recognized its high food value. During the Second World War，when meat was in short supply，the U．S. government encouraged the American people to eat soybean products. However，they never became very popular，and after the war，interest in them dropped off as the supply of meat became plentiful again.In recent years，people in the West have become increasingly aware of the dangers of eating too much animal fat，and as a result，they have turned more and more to soybean products. This is mainly because the soybean provides almost the same food value as meat，and in addition it is a lot more healthful. Much of the margarine(人造黄油)，salad oil and cooking oil in daily use is now produced from soybean oil. Tofu，a representative soybean product and originally one of the main foods in the diet of Chinese priests，is considered to be one of the healthiest foods available to man.28．Tofu came to Japan together with Buddhism because________．A．Buddhist priests ate tofu rather than vegetablesB．the religion came to Japan together with political institutionsC．it was a very important food in the diet of Buddhist priestsD．the religion was the most important aspect of Chinese culture 29．How are Japanese tofu dishes different from Chinese tofu dishes?A．They are served the same way throughout the year.B．They are preserved in the original taste.C．They have a better taste than Chinese tofu dishes.D．They have a greater variety than Chinese tofu dishes. 30．The Western people become interested in tofu and other soybean products because____．A．eating too much animal fat is considered unhealthyB．meat has become too expensive to buyC．these products are more readily availableD．they have become tired of eating meat第二节（共 5 小题，每小题 2 分，满分10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
