For some restaurant cooks, the most exciting spring arrival is ramps.Ramps are a wild plant in the eastern mountains of North America. They are one of the first plants that grow in the spring, usually between April and May. They are recognized(意识) by their red stem(茎), and two long and wide green leaves. They are also famous for their strong taste, similar to onions(洋葱).Ramps are not as well-known as other vegetables, but they have a long history in the United States. In the Appalachian Mountains, ramps have been an important food for a longtime. During spring, it is common for small towns in the Appalachian area to hold large ramp dinners for the community.However, over the last 30 years, ramps popularity has grown quickly. They are now a highly-desired vegetable for many nice restaurants in cities like New York and Washington D.C.One reason the plant is popular is that it grows in the wild. It is difficult to grow them on farms. Most restaurants get them from foragers, who collect ramps by searching forests for some small pieces of land where they grow. Ramps have a short season. Within a few weeks of full growth, the plant is done for the year. This shot life is some reason for their popularity.And that popularity could lead Io their disappearance from Earth. In 1995, the local government in Quebee, Canada, stopped people selling the plant to businesses in order to protect the plant against being over-dug.The season is short, but it has not ended yet. If you are in the right place, you still have time to try a taste of ramps yourself.根据材料内容选择最佳答案。（1）Why are ramps so popular in North America? A . Because they grow in spring.B .

And then nothing. Wild Lady didnt move. What was the matter?Suddenly Wild Lady jumped out like a tiger. She jumped-with all four feet off the ground. She was quick, still I could see Jerrys spurs(马刺). He had them in the right place. Again Wild Lady jumped, kicking and turning. Then she began a quick turn. Now I knew why all the riders were afraid of her. Around and around she went. Again and again she dug her front legs into the ground and kicked up behind.

But no! She was still riding. I was trying to count off the seconds with my fingers. But I was lost in the watching. I dug my nails(指甲)into my hand until it hurt. Wild Lady jumped higher and higher.
