How to understand the title Cold Truths
The cold food in the fridge reflects their true life style.
The unhealthy eating habits and lifestyles will influence people‘s health, which is a cruel (adj.残酷的) truth.
Language points
本单元的标题“food for thought”也是双关语。food for thought是一个习语,本意指的是 “something that should be thought about or considered carefully”,意指“需要认真考虑的事情”。恰好,本单元主题是多元饮食文化和健康的饮食习惯,谈到了食物“food”,一语双关,意指我们应该认真对待自己摄入的食物。
Cold Truths
课文标题语带双关,“Cold Truths”原意是“冰冷的事实”,结合课文内容,可将标题理解为冰箱里冷冰冰的食物所反映出的真实生活方式。进一步拓展思维,也可以认为课文中展示的不良饮食习惯和生活方式终将影响人们的身体健康,这也是一个残酷的事实。因此这篇课文的意义在于呼吁人们形成良好的饮食和生活习惯。

否定词与比较级连用还可以表示肯定的意思, 常见结构如下:

He couldn’t have done better.
no, never, nothing+比较级

这使她再高兴不过了。(这使她非常高兴。)
I still don’t think that anything can beat my mum’s homemade sausages, though.
本句话的语序本应是:I still think that anything can not beat …。在这里使用了否定前置。当主语是第一人称且动词是表示心理活动的词,如think,expect,hope,believe等,要将后面从句中的否定词提前,构成否定前置。汉语翻译时,否定词要放回原来的位置。
Eg. I don’t believe he can solve it.
=I believe he cannot solve it.
