12、uthor thinks that the food we eat usually reflects our personality,character,and culture.Para 1The French author Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin once wrote,“Tell me what you eat,and I will tell you what you are.”Put more simply,this means“You are what you eat.”Most people today relate this saying to h

13、ealthy eating.However,Brillat-Savarin was actually referring to our personality个性,character性格,and culture.法国作家Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin曾经写道:“告诉我你吃什么，我就能告诉你你是什么人。”更简单地说，这句话的意思是“你吃什么，你就是什么（人如其食物）。”今天大多数人把这句话和健康饮食联系起来。然而，布里亚特-萨瓦林实际上指的是我们的个性、性格和文化。While-reading2.What does the dish General Tsos chick

14、en tell about Americans personality?Key:It tells people that Americans love bold,simple flavors and are not afraid to try new foods.That is to say,Americans are adventurous and brave.Para 2Certainly,in many ways方面 this seems to be true.Chinese cuisine菜 is a case案例 in point恰当.Prior pra to之前 coming to

15、 China,my only experience with Chinese cooking was in America,with Chinese food that had been changed to suit American tastes.For example,Americas most popular Chinese dish is General Tsos chicken,which consists knsst of组成 fried chicken covered淋上 in a sweet sauce甜酱,flavoured调味 with hot red peppers p

16、ep红辣椒.This is probably not an authentic Chinese recipe resp做法,however,so it cannot tell us much about the Chinese.On the other hand,it does tell us a lot about Americans.It tells us,for example,that Americans love bold浓烈的,simple flavours.And,since因为 the dish was also invented recently,it tells us th

17、at Americans are not afraid to try new foods.当然，从很多方面来看，这似乎是真的。中国菜就是一个很好的例子。在来中国之前，我对中国烹饪的唯一体验是,在美国，中餐已被改变，以适应美国人的口味。例如，在美国最受欢迎的中国菜是左宗棠鸡，这是一种炸鸡，淋上甜酱，用煸过的红辣椒调味的。然而，这可能不是一个真正的中国食谱，所以它不能告诉我们太多关于中国人的信息。另一方面，它确实告诉我们很多关于美国人的事情。例如，它告诉我们，美国人喜欢浓烈的、简单的口味。而且，因为这道菜也是最近才发明的，所以它告诉我们，美国人不怕尝试新食物。While-reading3.What

18、 impressed the writer most while in Beijing?4.How do you like the characters of people in Beijing from the authors experience?Key 3:The friendship offered by people.Key 4:They are friendly and amicable(友善的).Para 3Later,I had a chance to experience authentic地道的Chinese food by coming to China.When my

20、the best food we had ever eaten.With this,we had the pleasure of 有幸experiencing an entirely new taste:Sichuan peppercorns花椒.The food was wonderful and different,but what was even more important was the friendship offered us.后来，我来到中国，有机会品尝到地道的中国食物。我和我的家人刚到中国，我们去北京找一个好地方吃饭。一位朋友先前向我们推荐了一家川菜餐馆，我们终于找到了。又

21、累又饿，又不会说一句中文，我们根本不知道怎么点餐，于是厨师就开始用我们吃过的最好的食物填满我们的餐桌。有了这个，我们有幸体验到了一种全新的味道:花椒。那里的食物美味可口，与众不同，但更重要的是我们获得的友谊。While-reading5.What is important to people in Shandong according to the writer?6.What do you know about the personality of people in North China?Key 5:According to the writer,family is important t

22、o people in Shandong.Key 6:People in North China attach importance to their family,so they are a family-centered person.Para 4We soon moved to Shandong Province in the eastern part of North China.My favourite dish there was boiled dumplings served with vinegar.I observed that family is important to

23、the people there.It hasbecome a favourite traditional dish of the people in North China,where making dumplings has always been a family affair with everyonefrom the youngest to the oldestjoining in to help.Later,I learnt知道 that the most famous food in Shandong is pancake rolls stuffed stft塞满 with sl

24、iced slas薄片的 Chinese green onions njn 大葱.我们很快就搬到了中国北方东部的山东省。我最喜欢的菜是煮饺子加醋。我注意到家庭对那里的人很重要。饺子已经成为中国北方人民最喜爱的传统菜肴。在那里，包饺子一直是人人参与的一项家庭活动，从最小的到最大的，每个人都要帮忙。后来，我才知道山东最有名的食物是煎饼卷大葱。While-reading7.Why did people in northwest China enjoy cooking over an open fire?8.What do we know about people in northern Xinjia

26、r traditional foods are what you can cook over an open fireusually boiled or roasted meat,such as a lamb lm 羊肉 kebab串.然后我们搬到了新疆北部。我们的一些朋友是哈萨克人和内蒙人。这些群体通常骑着马在开阔的牧场上漫游。因此，他们的传统食物是你可以在明火上烹饪的东西，通常是煮的或烤的肉，如羊肉串。While-reading9.What does elegant dim sum mean?10.What is the personality of people in south Chi

29、种各样的 as the people.However,one thing is always true:Through food,Chinese people everywhere show friendship and kindness.我们的旅行带我们去了中国南方，然后到了中国中部。我们每到一个地方，都能品尝到美味的当地菜肴，从广东精美的点心用竹制蒸笼盛出的小份食物到河南独特的烩面。到处都是各种各样的食物，就像人一样。然而，有一件事是永远不变:通过食物，世界各地的中国人展示了友谊和善良。SummaryTrace the authors travels again and understan

32、ng in different places consume various kinds of food because they share different local cultures.”Understand cause and effectSometimes two ideas are related to each other by cause and effect.That is,one thing causes something else to happen.Cause-and-effect relationships can be direct.For example,“I
