2025年初中英语中考传统文化阅读与写作专练
Topic 6 饮食文化
话题解读
文化 早知道 中国的饮食文化源远流长，博大精深，是中华文化的重要组成部分。中国公认的八大菜系有川菜、粤菜、鲁菜、苏菜、浙菜、微菜、湘菜和闽菜。除了这几种富有地域特色的菜系以外，中国的许多传统美食经过历史的考验以及人们的改良后深受大众喜爱，如月饼、饺子、粽子、元宵、八宝饭等，这些都是逢年过节中国人餐桌上常见的美食。
考情 早知道 中考对饮食文化的考查内容主要集中在中国各地的特色美食和与节日有关的美食上。 该类文章主要有两种考查形式：一种是介绍美食的做法；另外一种是介绍一些和饮食有关的习俗。例如，2024年山东烟台中考的短文填空介绍了制作月饼的方法，2024年江西中考的选词填空介绍了和江西米粉相关的一些习俗。此外，近两年还出现了一种新趋势－介绍中国美食走向世界。

西汉就有了“鸳鸯锅”
有学者研究发现，汉代已有各式各样的火锅：从材料来看，不仅有青铜火锅，还有铁火锅、陶火锅；从用餐形式而言，除了分餐制的染器，还有可以放不同料汤、煮不同菜品的鸳鸯锅。
江苏盱眙县境内大云山西汉墓出土的一件分格鼎，证明墓主、西汉江都王刘非是一个好吃嘴，而且他吃的还是“鸳鸯火锅”。这个鼎很别致，打开盖子之后，鼎内分布着五个错落有致的小格子，中间圆格外面再分出四格。这种分格鼎与现在的九宫格火锅异曲同工，造鼎的工匠将鼎分成五个区间，既方便有酸、辣、麻、咸等不同饮食习惯的食客拥有不同的底料，又能让鸡鸭鱼肉放在不同格子内避免串味，一锅顶五锅。

粽子为什么叫粽子？
粽子又称“角黍”或“筒粽”，是端午节汉族的传统食品，由粽叶包裹糯米蒸制而成。广为流传的说法是为了纪念投江而死的屈原。粽子的起源可以追溯到春秋时期甚至更早。2010年在江西德安宋代古墓里发现的两个粽子，是目前发现的最早的实物粽。
明代李时珍《本草纲目》中，清楚说明用菰叶裹黍米，煮成尖角或棕榈叶形状食物，所以称“角黍”或“粽”。明清以后，粽子多用糯米制作，这时就不叫角黍，而称粽子了。
关于粽子最早的记载，是1600年前西晋新平太守周处所写的《风土记》：“仲夏端午，烹鹜角黍。”200年后，南朝文学家吴钧在书中说：“屈原五月五日投汨罗而死，楚人哀之，遂以竹筒贮米，投水祭之。”于是以讹传讹，相沿成俗。可见人们对忠义之士感情有多深厚了。
语篇解读

3.A 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段第二句可知，南宁粽子也被称为“枕头粽”，是因为它中间有馅料的部分比两边略高。由此可知，“枕头粽”因其大小和形状而得名。
4.B 篇章结构题。通读全文可知，第一段引出了本文的主题－粽子；第二至五段分别介绍了四种不同的粽子，故本文为“总分”结构，B项符合题意。

清明吃寒食 青团圆又甜
清明时节，江南地区有吃青团的习俗。江南人将春季第一次吃青团称为“尝春”，品尝春天味道的同时，亦寄托对先人的思念。
据考证，“青团”之称大约始于唐代，又叫艾团。清代文人徐达源《吴门竹枝词》中的“相传百五禁烟厨，红藕青团各祭先”，说的就是人们在清明时节吃冷食青团，并用红藕、青团祭祀祖先，其中“百五”即指冬至过后105天为寒食。
清代文学家、美食家袁枚在《随园食单》中记载了青团的制作方法－“捣青草为汁，和粉作团，色如碧玉”。当下常见的青团制作方法与袁枚记录的如出一辙。
语篇解读
本文主要介绍了人们在清明时节吃的一种传统食物－青团。青团通常由糯米和红豆沙制成，其美味背后的秘密是艾蒿叶。
答案详析

2.D 细节理解题。通读第二段可知，在中国南方，清明吃青团是一种传统。青团通常由糯米和红豆沙制成。由此可知，第二段提到了制作青团的材料。
3.B 词义猜测题。根据画线词前的“People here usually put qingtuan on the tombs of their dead family members”可知，人们通常会把青团放在已故家人的坟墓上。再结合画线词后的the past memory可推知，他们这样做是为了怀念往事，故推断cherish意为“怀念”。
4.C 推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“Now, qingtuan has already spread its special taste to the northern part of China.”可知，现在，青团的特殊味道已经传到了中国北方。再结合文章最后一句可知，口味的差异说明青团在全国各地越来越受欢迎。由此可推知，会有越来越多的人喜欢吃青团。
5.B 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了人们在清明时节吃的一种传统食物－青团。

1.黄面离不开烤肉。黄面和烤肉可是一对绝配，浓香的烤肉可以让简单的黄面找到豪华盛宴的感觉。

红烧肉为什么惹人爱？
红烧肉的诱人的香味和爽滑的口感是其深受人们喜爱的原因。红烧肉诱人的香味来自一种叫作“美拉德反应”的神奇作用。美拉德反应是氨基酸与糖在受热时发生的一种会产生褐色颜色和很多香气物质的反应。猪肉中有一些蛋白质，红烧的时候，蛋白质中的氨基酸就会与糖发生这种反应，红烧后肉就产生了诱人的黄褐色，并伴随扑鼻的香气。除了诱人的香气，很多人也喜欢红烧肉爽滑的口感。纯瘦肉吃起来会比较硬，还会塞牙缝，但是红烧肉就非常爽滑，这种爽滑的口感主要是因为脂肪的作用。红烧肉脂肪丰富，脂肪对于食物的口感至关重要。对猪肉的质构分析发现，脂肪含量越高，肉质更嫩、弹性也更好，人们会普遍觉得更好吃。
语篇解读
红烧肉味道鲜美，深受人们喜爱。本文主要介绍了这道菜的做法。

3.how 第二段主要讲述了制作红烧肉的过程，故此处表示“你想学习如何制作红烧肉吗？”。how“如何”，符合语境。
4.pieces 根据空前的cut the pork和空后的“put them in a pot”可推知，此处指将猪肉切成块。piece作“块”讲时为可数名词，且空前无限定词修饰，故填其复数形式pieces.
5.turns 根据空前的Add in some sugar可知，要加入一些糖；再结合空后的brown可推知，此处指当糖变成棕色后。此处描述客观情况，应用一般现在时；从句的主语为it,故填turn的第三人称单数形式turns.
6.pour 根据空后的some hot water并结合备选词可知，此处指向锅中倒入热水。分析句子结构可知，此处为祈使句，故填动词原形pour.
7.cooking 根据空前提到的制作步骤可推知，此处指继续煮大约半个小时。go on doing sth.意为“继续做某事”，是固定用法，故填cooking.
8.Finally 根据第二段中的First、Next、Then、After that并结合语境可推知，此处指最后，当汁液变干时，加入一些胡椒粉，使红烧肉的味道更好。分析句子结构可知，空处作状语修饰整个句子，故填副词Finally.单词位于句首，注意首字母大写。
9.plate 结合备选词可知，此处指将红烧肉从锅中捞出，放在盘子里，空前有不定冠词a,故填plate.
10.them 现在，你可以把红烧肉端给你的朋友，和他们一起享受这道美食。空处指代空前的your friends,且作with的宾语，故填they的宾格them.
