When I was little，I was really little.But my dream was big.I dreamed of being a basketball player.I tried out for the teams at school，but I was never given a chance.
   As I got older，I did grow a little bigger，but not a lot bigger.On my 12th birthday，I decided to try a new sport：running.I told Grandpa."I'm going to be an athlete."
   "Dave."Grandpa began gently，"if you can't be big，you can do something big."
   I ran 12 miles on my 12th birthday.On my 13th birthday，I did it again，but I added an extra mile.On my 14th birthday，I ran 14 miles.15 on my 15th，16 on my 16th，and you guessed it— 17 miles on my 17th birthday.
   All this running inspired（激發(fā)）another big dream.Someday，Id run the Boston Marathon（波士頓馬拉松賽）.I told Grandpa about my decision.
   "But，Dave，you haven't trained for the marathon.Are you sure you're ready？"Grandpa asked.But he still promised to walk over and cheer me on.
   I ran fast that day，But I fell at Mile 18 and was driven to the hospital.Later that night，I called Grandpa and told him I failed.
   "No，" he said calmly，"you didn't fail.You discovered something."
   "I did？"I asked.
   "Yes，you discovered that big dreams don't just come true.They take work.If you train and work hard，I promise to wait for you next year and cheer you on."
   I trained every day，running miles and miles.Sadly，just two months into my training，Grandpa died.He wouldn't be waiting for my second Boston Marathon.I decided I'd run for him.
   That day，I ran fast."Keep going!You can do it!" His words filled my head as I forced my legs to make each painful step.As I crossed the finish line，I threw my arms in the air and cried，"Grandpa，we did it!"

1．Chinese cuisine is widely known and enjoyed all around the world．Who doesn't long for a favorite Chinese dish？But there is one interesting concept concerning Chinese food which is almost unheard in the West，and which is becoming increasingly ignored by the youth of the East - the ancient custom of tonic food．
   Tonic food is food which is consumed to improve one's well-being or avoid sickness．For instance，it was once the custom for new mothers to eat a sesame oil hotpot every day for the first month after giving birth．It was believed that this dish would benefit the muscles，reduce pain，improve circulation，stimulate sweating，and warm the body．Some foods，such as goat meat and spinach （菠菜），are seen as "hot"，while others，such as Chinese cabbage and radishes （小蘿卜），are seen as "cold"．One should be careful not to eat too much of either "hot" or "cold" food．However，how much "hot" or "cold" food one should eat depends on the time of the year，how the food is prepared and what it is prepared with，and the individual's health．
   The custom of employing tonic food for a healthier life also influences the catering industry．Chinese herbal medicines，such as the wolfberry （枸杞子），can be found on many a restaurant menu，either added to fruit tea or as a beneficial addition to a dish．These herbs attract customers，such as overworked office staff，in need of a modest pick-me-up．
   So，whether you need to boost your strength with a large helping of chicken soup，or increase your mental powers with a serving of pig brain soup，you may find that this ancient Chinese custom could be just the tonic you were looking for．

（1）What is the present situation of tonic food？

A．It is catching less attention．
B．It is enjoyed by many young people．
C．It is well known worldwide．
D．It is becoming increasingly popular．
（2）What is believed to benefit new mothers？

A．Chinese cabbage．
B．Fruit tea．
C．Sesame oil hotpot．
D．Pig brain soup．
（3）Which of the following best explains "catering" underlined in Paragraph 3？

A．Medicine．
B．Restaurant．
C．Education．
D．Fashion．
（4）What can be a suitable title for the text？

A．The Charm of Chinese Cuisine
B．The Popularity of Tonic Food
C．An Introduction to Chinese Tonic Food
D．Differences Between Hot Food and Cold Food
