(单选题)

According to the passage, in traditional Chinese, people will eat ______ on their birthdays.

A.eggs

B.noodles

C.fish

D.cake

参考答案：B

参考解析：

细节理解题。根据第二段第一、二句“Noodles are a symbol of long life in Chinese culture. They are as much a part of Chinese birthday celebration as a birthday cake with its candles lit in many Western countries”可知，在中国文化中，面条是长寿的象征。它们是中国生日庆祝活动的一部分，就像许多西方国家点燃蜡烛的生日蛋糕一样。因此，根据中国文化在生日那天吃面条。其他三项代表的食物均不属于传统生日餐的必备，故选B。
