We welcomed the winds, as it was another hot day in Chicago. The wind blew, bringing us some coolness—and making the weather not that hot. But it was a beautiful summer day with a blue sky. Chicago is a great city for eating, and we have enjoyed tasting the different foods. Last night, we tried one of the city's most famous foods：deep?dish pizza. Chicago claims credit for the rich and cheesy thick?crust pizza, covered with a sweet tomato sauce. We topped it with olives and green peppers. We were touring the city, mainly looking for delicious local foods. Today, we enjoyed a Polish specialty at lunch：pierogis, an Eastern European dumpling?like dish, filled with foods like potatoes, cheese, mushrooms, cabbage and meat. Polish immigrants started settling in Chicago in the 1850s, and the city has one of the largest Polish communities in the US. We took a break from exploring the city to talk with some of you！Ashley and Caty logged onto the Internet for Talk 2 us. We spoke to an English teacher in Tokyo, Japan, and a graduate student in India. Meanwhile, Adam searched for some locations around the city to shoot some videos. He chose a spectacular (壮丽的) spot：Navy Pier, Chicago's most?visited attraction. The winds from Lake Michigan kept visitors cool, and the view of the Chicago skyline never failed to impress. In fact, the view made all of us head over heels! Our time in Chicago has come to an end. Tomorrow, the true journey begins, as we pass through Illinois and into Missouri. Springfield, the home of Abe Lincoln, and St. Louis, the“gateway to the West”， wait for us. 【语篇解读】 本文主要讲述了作者和同伴们去芝加哥旅行的经历和感受。 1．Why did the author and her companions like the soft winds?
