文的最佳标题。故选C项。【语篇解读】这是一篇新闻报道。旧金山厨师CeciliaChiang于周三去世,她是第一个在美国变更人们对中国菜刻板印象的人,享年一百岁。文章主要介绍了她的个人经验,以及为变更美国人对中国菜刻板印象所付出的努力,CeciliaChiang希望外地人都能重视自己的文化,不向其他文化屈服。28.C主旨大意题。文章主要介绍了CeciliaChiang的个人经验,以及她为变更美国人对中国菜刻板印象所付出的努力,CeciliaChiang希望外地人都能重视自己的文化,不向其他文化屈服。故选C项。29.B词义揣测题。依据画线词上文“ToconvincethediningpublicthatChinesefooddidn’thavetobeThursday’scheaptake-outoption,Chiang”以及后文“SheinsistedonshowingdinerstherefinedsideofChinesefoodandwantedtoupgradetheChinesediningexperience.Todothis,shealsoneededtobeawareofaesthetics.”可知,Cecilia为了让用餐的公众信任,中国菜不肯定非要是周四的廉价外卖,她为自己支配了大量工作。画线短语意思为“有许多工作要做”。故选B项。30.D推理推断题。依据倒数第三段中“SheinsistedonshowingdinerstherefinedsideofChinesefoodandwantedtoupgradetheChinesediningexperience.”以及倒数其次段可知,CeciliaChiang通过改善中式用餐体验,
