2017届高考英语一轮基础知识复习：Unit 1 Cultural relics（新人教版必修2）

　　Unit 1 Cultural relics

　　Ⅰ.阅读理解

　　Who would have thought that potato fries could unite an entire country? Well, that seems to be the case in Belgium where there is currently a movement to have Belgian potato fries officially recognized as cultural heritage.

　　The fries are served in a paper cone(圆锥体) from a “fritkot”， which is a shack(小屋)or a food truck. Across Belgium, there are at least 5,000 fritkots which is 10 times more common than McDonald's restaurants in the United States.

　　The movement for the fries to be declared official cultural heritage was started by UNAFRI, also known as the national association of fritkot owners. They claim that their establishments represent Belgium very well. “A cone of potato chips is Belgium in miniature(微模型). What's amazing is that this way of thinking is the same, in spite of differences among communities and regions，” added spokesman Bernard Lefevre.

　　Tourists can even be seen to line up with locals in Brussels to buy a cone of fries from wellknown fritkots such as Frit Flagey and Maison Antoine. “Before I came here, the only thing I knew about Belgium was that they liked their fries，” said Rachael Webb, a tourist from Ottowa, Canada.

　　In order to be recognized by UNESCO, it has to be formally supported by the Belgian government of culture.

　　As of right now, UNESCO has a list of 314 items of “cultural heritage” that they say is worthy enough to be preserved. Items on the list include Turkish coffee and the old native singing of the Central African Republic.
