Do you like spicy(辛辣的) food? If yes, try this spicy food by Emily Rudnick. She is a twelve-year-old girl at Aspen Middle School in Denver, US. She made her own spicy food. It is called Rudspice.
Rudnick learned to cook at an early age of five. The idea of spice came from a camp. She put a lot of spice on food. “The food is better. I think we should make a spice that can make all food taste better.” Rudnick told Denver Westward, a reporter from BBC.
She first learned about the spice business(生意) from Savory Spice owners Mike and Janet Johnston. Then she tried it at home. With the help of her father Mr. Rudnick, she made six different kinds of spicy food. To get the best one, she tested their tastes on foods like popcorn(爆米花) and eggs. She used chili(辣椒), onions and other things to make Rudspice.
She made it into a business, too. This month, it went into Savory Spice shops in the US.

23、阅读短文,从每小题所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。
Many people like to travel by plane, but I don’t like it because the airport is usually far from the city. You have to get there early and wait for hours for the plane to take off which is often late. You can’t open the windows. You can’t choose the food. Planes are fast, but it still takes hours to get out of the airport and into the city.
I like travelling by train. I think trains are safe. Railway stations are usually good in cities. When you are late for a train, you can catch another one. You can walk around in the train and open the windows. You can see many interesting things on your way, though it takes a little more time.
I also like cars. You can start your journey whenever you want to, and you don’t need to get to a railway station or a bus stop. Also you can carry many things with you in a car. But sometimes there are too many cars on the road.
