豆汁，再来一碗

    ①豆汁相貌鄙陋，闻之又无喜感。

    ②坐在由四合院改建的小饭店内，北京朋友热情，点了一整桌地道小吃。当豆汁隆重登场时，已无处安放，他们干脆直接将豆汁挪至我面前，带着期许地望着我这上海客人平生第一回尝这北京味。

    ③捧起碗，摆出喝永和豆浆般的豪饮状，竟立刻被制止，“你别后悔啊！”举起小勺，顿觉自己是试验中的白鼠，往嘴里缓慢而郑重放入、倾倒、咽下，酸味随即满嘴蔓延。赶紧掰一块旁边碗里的油炸馍。

    ④一分钟心神气定后，那酸臭记忆似早已远去，剩下的唯独香甜回味，并感觉胃口大开，如故宫的笨重大门被缓缓推开，金光从不断扩大的缝隙中渗出。

    ⑤好喝。嘴角挂起笑意，我喝起来。四周见状，皆为惊诧，转瞬又为欣喜，至少谁都不愿远道而来的客人大哭闹脾气，甚至掀桌大骂“什么玩意儿”吧！况且，平生第一回尝试这“北京糖水”，我倒是既激动又真心喜欢的。

    ⑥朋友介绍，豆汁在北京百姓间极受欢迎，但唯独懂的人才懂，不爱的人是永远爱不上的，颇有些“灵性”的命运意味。喝下它，功效也极佳——通肠。

    ⑦听罢，我神色大变，即刻停手。难得来北京，不想整日与马桶为伴，即便欢喜，还是不要冒险。但时至今日，想来又有些悔恨，再也尝不到如此美妙的怪味了。

    ⑧有天，买到了薄荷茶叶，在办公室厨房泡茶，趁着滚烫，幸福地边用力闻薄荷香边吸鼻子，引来三两同事驻足围观，他们正喝着放满奶精的奶茶。好奇问这是什么中药，我说你尝试一下也会爱上，对方勉强地抿了口，立刻逃开。

    ⑨那该从何说起，每日早晨我必饮姜汁红糖茶的习惯呢？那气味、口感和薄荷茶是有过之而不及的。豆汁、薄荷、姜茶大概这种趋势下去，不免真会有天喝起苦到钻心的中草药来还觉味美。

    ⑩兴许经历过些事后才发现，人生的模样，绝非小朋友蜡笔画中的太阳公公，烟囱总是冒着幸福的白烟，还有在草坪上手拉手嘴角向上弯曲的爸爸妈妈和小孩。事实是，人生有如豆汁，相貌鄙陋闻之不喜，生有时死有命，中间的这段漫长旅途却也不得掌控，大风大浪或者琐碎扬尘，来什么就要硬着头皮喝下去。

    ⑪怎又知，苦与臭的身不由己终会过去，之后的回味，是甜是香是美好。古龙说：一个人如果走投无路，心一窄想寻短见，就放他去菜市场。我说：不行，那人见五彩蔬果，欢腾鸡鸭，只会一时有生之念头，长久看来必定再犯。倒可以给他买碗豆汁，相貌鄙陋闻之又无喜感。

    ⑫会喝豆汁的人，想必，遇事时不会绝望到哪里去。

根据短文理解，从给出的A、B、C三个选项中选择最佳答案填空。

    If a snake bites you, take a photo with your mobile phone! It may save your life. This is the surprising 1 of a British cook.

    One day Henry Jackson was working in a restaurant kitchen. He picked up a dish from the table, and 2 a snake appeared……and bit him on the hand.

    A few days earlier, the snake came to the 3 from Asia in a box of bananas. It climbed out of the box and 4 under the dish.

    "I went to try to pick it up and it bit me again. I threw it 5 the kitchen, and it landed in the fridge. So I closed the door," Mr. Jackson said.

     Anyway, Mr. Jackson stayed 6 and he took a photo of the snake with his mobile phone. Soon his 7 began to ache and he went to hospital. Then his chest began to hurt. Doctors couldn't say what was wrong 8 they didn't know what kind of snake it was.

    Then Mr. Jackson remembered his mobile phone photo. The doctors 9 it to London Zoo. When they knew the kind of snake they could give Mr. Jackson the right medicine, and he left hospital the next day.

    "So my advice is this: If a snake bites you, pick up your phone. Take 10 photo first and then show the photo to the doctors," suggests Mr. Jackson. "Oh, and if the snake doesn't smile for the photo, don't worry!"
