内化读文技法
理清说明顺序,把握对象特征
本文是一篇分析食物与文化关系的事理说明文。它是以说明为主要表达方式来解说事物、阐明事理而给人知识的文章体裁,通过揭示概念来说明事物特征、本质及其规律性。阅读说明性文本,重点理清文章的说明顺序,进而把握说明对象的特征。说明文主要有时间、空间、逻辑顺序。时间顺序是按照事物发展的顺序来介绍某事物。空间顺序是按照事物空间结构的顺序,从外到内,从上到下,从整体到局部进行介绍。如本文第二至六段作者按照时间顺序(prior to, later, soon, then) 及空间顺序(America, Beijing, Shandong, Northern Xinjiang, South China, Central China)介绍了在不同时间和不同地点品尝的美食,让读者从中体会到饮食与文化的关系。
(一)赏用词之妙
1.For example, America's most popular Chinese dish is General Tso's chicken, which consists of fried chicken covered in a sweet sauce, flavoured with hot red peppers.
赏析:句中使用consists of ...描述了这道菜的主要食材(炸鸡),以及它的调料(甜酱)。然后使用flavoured描述了这道菜的另一个重要搭配(红辣椒),红辣椒为这道菜增添了风味。这使读者能够清晰地想象出这道菜的色、香、味、型,有效地传达了作者想要表达的信息。
2.In each place we went, we experienced wonderful local dishes, from Guangdong's elegant dim sum — small servings of food in bamboo steamers — to the exceptional stewed noodles in Henan.
赏析:句中使用了elegant和exceptional作定语,形象地描绘出了不同地方饮食的独一无二的特色。用词高雅、精练,突出了中国独有的两种食品—— dim sum和stewed noodles。
仿写训练/完成句子
①The dish ______________ layers of pasta, cheese, and tomato sauce, __________ with basil and oregano for an authentic Italian taste.
这道菜由多层意大利面、奶酪和番茄酱组成,用罗勒和牛至调味,呈现出正宗的意大利味道。
②The delicate and __________ presentation of the dinner, a five-course French menu, was __________ in its attention to detail, from the garnish of fresh herbs to the intricate pattern of the tablecloth.
这顿鲜美可口而精致的晚餐,一份五道菜的法国菜单,从新鲜香草的装饰到桌布的复杂图案,特别注重细节。
(二)赏描摹之韵(心理描写)
Could we also say, for example, that those who like bold flavours are bold themselves Or, that those who like spicy food tend to have a hot temper
赏析:作者用食物的bold联想到人的“大胆”,用食物的spicy联想到人的“火暴脾气”。用词简练而不失生动,同时幽默感十足。它通过巧妙的用词和生动的表达,传递了一种关于食物和性格之间可能的有趣关联。这种表达方式既让人印象深刻,又让人觉得有趣。
仿写训练/翻译句子
It is commonly believed that a person with a hot temper prefers to eat spicy food, while a bold person is more likely to try different flavors of food.
 
 
(三)赏逻辑之巧
I observed that family is important to the people there. It has become a favourite traditional dish of the people in North China, where making dumplings has always been a family affair with everyone — from the youngest to the oldest — joining in to help.
赏析:作者在描述水饺的时候使用了因果逻辑关系。family is important to the people there是因,making dumplings has always been a family affair with everyone — from the youngest to the oldest — joining in to help是果,是一种隐性的因果关系。这句话通过描述包饺子的家庭活动,不管长幼,人人参与,强调了家庭在华北地区的人民生活中的重要性。这种因果逻辑关系使得句子更加有说服力,也更好地传达了作者想要表达的信息。
中国传统美食蕴含着丰富的传统文化,如四川火锅折射出了四川人的同享同乐、豪爽包容的性格,从中我们可以了解到四川饮食所植根的巴蜀文化。本篇文章旨在帮助我们了解中外特色菜肴及饮食文化差异,领略中国饮食文化的丰富多彩、博大精深,并思考饮食与文化、饮食与健康的关系,养成健康的饮食习惯,增强跨文化沟通意识和能力。
countries ever since I was able to hold a knife and fork — and chopsticks!
Mum has sweet memories of the food from her home town in Sichuan, and often cooks spicy dishes. Thanks to this, Dad has come to love hot pot! But there are still some dishes that Dad dare not try even after many years of marriage to my mother. He once told me he was surprised by what He was even shocked at their wedding when he saw how the Chinese ate almost every part of an animal. Even today, he still does not easily take to eating things like chicken feet.
But I enjoy that sort of food myself. Last week, I went to the butcher's and asked, “Do you have pigs' ears?” “No,” the butcher said, pulling at his own ears, “just these ordinary ones.”
Dad can cook a super “full English breakfast” of bacon, eggs, beans, sausages and toast with butter — Mum and I just have to find a way to get him into the kitchen! He also does a typical Sunday roast. We all love roast beef and vegetables, but Mum says we'd better not eat too much roast food as it may make us suffer from heat inside our bodies, according to traditional Chinese medicine.
I'll never forget my first visit to China. Mum encouraged me to try different kinds of food, and I did! I loved everything. But just when I thought I could deal with all Chinese food, I came across stinky tofu, a horrible grey thing that looked and smelt like a burnt sports shoe. “You needn't try it if you don't want to,” Mum said, but I gathered all my courage to take a bite and was amazed to find it wasn't so bad. It reminded me of blue cheese, a similarly strong smelling type of food you either love or hate. Maybe I'll fall in love with stinky tofu — someday.
People say that one man's meat is another man's poison, but I feel at home with food from both my cultures. and a cup of Chinese oolong tea in a fine china cup!

Growing up in England with a British father and a Chinese mother, I've enjoyed food from both countries ever since I was able to hold a knife and fork — and chopsticks!
Mum has sweet memories of the food from her home town in Sichuan, and often cooks spicy dishes. Thanks to this, Dad has come to love hot pot!

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Is there any truth behind the saying “You are what you eat”? We put this to the test by asking three people to open their fridge doors and talk about their lifestyles.
Jenny, 31, Teacher
My husband and I avoid all products that come from animals. This means we don't eat meat. We like cooking at home and make our meals from fresh, seasonal fruit and vegetables. Cooking together gives us a chance to relax and catch up on each other's days. If we have children, I want to bring them up just like us, but my husband says that everyone should be able to make their own lifestyle choices.
Ted, 35, Construction worker
Each day at the construction site is more or less the same — tiring! When I get back home, there's nothing more satisfying than a big meat dinner. I guess I've always been a big meat eater and in this house, no family meal is complete without some form of meat. I still don't think that anything can beat my mum's homemade sausages, though.
Mike, 49, Chef
With five children, we're one big family! My wife and I both work full-time, so life can get pretty busy! Like a lot of chefs I know, I don't really do much cooking at home. Sometimes I bring home food from the restaurant where I work. Once a week, we do a big shop and buy a lot of frozen food. I know we should eat more fresh fruit and vegetables, but ready meals are so convenient.
语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要以老师Jenny、建筑工人Ted和厨师Mike的家庭饮食习惯为例,说明“人如其食”这句话背后的道理。
1.What can we learn about Jenny
A.She likes ready meals.
B.She has children to bring up.
C.She enjoys vegetable-free dinners.
D.She enjoys cooking together with her husband.
解析:细节理解题。根据Jenny, 31, Teacher中的“We like cooking ...on each other's days.”可知,珍妮喜欢和丈夫一起做饭。

2.What might Mike say
A.My fridge is filled with meat.
B.As a chef, I don't need so much frozen food.
C.I provide fresh fruit and vegetables for my children.
D.It's convenient to eat food brought from my workplace.

解析:推理判断题。根据Mike, 49, Chef中的“Sometimes I bring home food from the restaurant where I work.”以及“I know we should eat more fresh fruit and vegetables, but ready meals are so convenient.”可知,迈克认为即食食品很方便,有时会从自己工作的餐馆带食物回家;由此可推测,迈克会说吃从工作场所带来的食物很方便。

3.What is the type of the text
A.Interview notes. B.A cooking guide.
C.An advertisement. D.Product introductions.
解析:推理判断题。根据第一段的内容并结合全文内容可知,本文记录了三位被采访者的家庭饮食习惯,所以文章是一篇采访记录。
B
Chinese people take their food and eat it extremely seriously. Eating is a communal (公共的), social, and human experience in China.Sharing a meal is a sign of friendship and trust. Eating plays a central role in friendship, business, medicine, family and love. In short, food is life.
When eating, the rice is separated into your own personal bowl, but the dishes are placed in communal bowls in the centre of the table and everybody helps themselves with chopsticks. It's considered polite, and sign of respect and friendship, to encourage other people to eat plenty of the good bits, even to pick up food with your chopsticks and drop it into their rice bowls for them.
Food is an important component of weddings, funerals and almost all Chinese festivals. New Year is the time for dumplings; the Dragon Boat Festival is the time for sticky rice zongzi wrapped in leaves, and the Mid-Autumn Day is the time for moon cakes. The dinner table is the best forum (讨论会) to close business deals, and it's the number one thing to do with friends.
Chinese women express their admiration for the opposite sex by cooking delicious meals of many courses, and these days it's the other way round, too.
In short, if you want to get to know Chinese people, understand Chinese culture and thinking and get into Chinese life, you have to eat and appreciate Chinese food.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国食物的重要性。

4.In the first paragraph, what does the author mean by saying “food is life”?
A.Without food, there will be no life.
B.Food is as important as life.
C.We must take food seriously.
D.We must eat food every day.
解析:句意理解题。根据第一段“Chinese people take their food ...family and love.”可知,食物对于中国人来说是非常重要的,由此可推知,“food is life”意为“食物和生活同样重要”。

5.Eating plays a central role in the following aspects except .
A.Friendship B.business
C.money D.medicine
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段“Eating plays a central role in friendship, business, medicine, family and love.”可知,饮食在友谊、商业、医学方面都起着核心作用,除了钱。

6.What's the representative food for the Dragon Boat Festival in China
A.Dumplings. B.Moon cakes.
C.Noodles. D.Zongzi.
解析:细节理解题。根据第三段“... the Dragon Boat Festival is the time for sticky rice zongzi wrapped in leaves”可知,粽子是中国端午节的代表食物。
7.What's the best title of this passage
A.Eating Food in China
B.How to Do Chinese Food
C.The importance of Chinese Food
D.Different Foods for Different Chinese Festivals

解析:标题归纳题。根据第一段“Chinese people take their food and eat it extremely seriously.”和最后一段的内容可知,文章主要介绍了中国食物的重要性。
Ⅱ.阅读七选五
Follow the tips when buying food and you will start eating better at less cost.
Try your local farmer's market. I always check out my local farmer's market for produce, especially for fruits and vegetables that are in season. 8 Not only that but you'll be helping to stimulate (激发) your local economy by buying from local farmers and you get to interact with them too.
9 You may not want a full blown home vegetable garden in your backyard but certain spices and vegetables can be grown for relatively cheap and without much daily maintenance. The greatest benefit of growing your own produce is that after the upfront cost of buying the seeds, the rewards are endless as long as you water and take care of the plants. 10 By doing so, you can learn more about the benefits of a home garden and how you can save money.
Join a food co-op (食品合作社). Joining a food co-op can really help you to save money on meat. Buy in large quantities in a food co-op and if you have an extra freezer, freeze the meat and eat it for the next month or two. Check out what kind of co-ops are available in your area and join one. 11_
Rethink your meals. Finally, try coming up with meals that use fresh ingredients but can be prepared in large quantities. That way you can easily reheat and eat again. Also, try cutting out frozen ready-made meals and TV dinners like pizzas and other frozen organic foods. 12_ And you want to go organic for the health benefits too, right
A.It is a practical means of buying food with less money.
B.Grow your own vegetables in your backyard home garden.
C.Choose to buy food that is most important to you.
D.These can cost nearly double the price of regular frozen foods.
E.You'll spend about double on food unless you shop during the right sales.
F.It's also a fun side project or hobby especially when spring time rolls around.
G.This is a great option because you'll get extremely fresh product at great prices.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍一些购买食物时的省钱方法。
8.选G 上文提到了去当地的农贸市场买农产品,空后一句中的“Not only that but ...”说明本句与后一句并列,都是在说明这么做的好处。故G选项“这是一个很好的选择,因为你会以很好的价格买到非常新鲜的产品”符合语境。
9.选B 根据后文可知,本段的建议是自己种植蔬菜。故B选项“在你家后院的花园里自己种蔬菜”符合语境。
10.选F 根据后文可知,本句主要在说明自己种植蔬菜的好处。故F选项“这也是一个有趣的业余项目或爱好,尤其是在春天来临的时候”符合语境。
11.选A 上文提到了加入食品合作社的方法,还提到了可以省钱,故A选项“这是一种用更少的钱买食物的实用方法”符合语境。
12.选D 上文建议减少冷冻的即食食品和电视晚餐,比如披萨和其他冷冻有机食品,本句则是说明原因。故D选项“这些食品的价格几乎是普通冷冻食品的两倍”符合语境。UNIT 3 课时检测(一) “Reading and Thinking”

Is there any truth behind the saying “You are what you eat”? We put this to the test by asking three people to open their fridge doors and talk about their lifestyles.
Jenny, 31, Teacher
My husband and I avoid all products that come from animals. This means we don't eat meat. We like cooking at home and make our meals from fresh, seasonal fruit and vegetables. Cooking together gives us a chance to relax and catch up on each other's days. If we have children, I want to bring them up just like us, but my husband says that everyone should be able to make their own lifestyle choices.
Ted, 35, Construction worker
Each day at the construction site is more or less the same — tiring! When I get back home, there's nothing more satisfying than a big meat dinner. I guess I've always been a big meat eater and in this house, no family meal is complete without some form of meat. I still don't think that anything can beat my mum's homemade sausages, though.
Mike, 49, Chef
With five children, we're one big family! My wife and I both work full time, so life can get pretty busy! Like a lot of chefs I know, I don't really do much cooking at home. Sometimes I bring home food from the restaurant where I work. Once a week, we do a big shop and buy a lot of frozen food. I know we should eat more fresh fruit and vegetables, but ready meals are so convenient.

Chinese people take their food and eat it extremely seriously. Eating is a communal (公共的), social, and human experience in China.Sharing a meal is a sign of friendship and trust. Eating plays a central role in friendship, business, medicine, family and love. In short, food_is_life.
When eating, the rice is separated into your own personal bowl, but the dishes are placed in communal bowls in the centre of the table and everybody helps themselves with chopsticks. It's considered polite, and sign of respect and friendship, to encourage other people to eat plenty of the good bits, even to pick up food with your chopsticks and drop it into their rice bowls for them.
Food is an important component of weddings, funerals and almost all Chinese festivals. New Year is the time for dumplings; the Dragon Boat Festival is the time for sticky rice zongzi wrapped in leaves, and the Mid Autumn Day is the time for moon cakes. The dinner table is the best forum (讨论会) to close business deals, and it's the number one thing to do with friends.
Chinese women express their admiration for the opposite sex by cooking delicious meals of many courses, and these days it's the other way round, too.
In short, if you want to get to know Chinese people, understand Chinese culture and thinking and get into Chinese life, you have to eat and appreciate Chinese food.

Follow the tips when buying food and you will start eating better at less cost.
Try your local farmer's market. I always check out my local farmer's market for produce, especially for fruits and vegetables that are in season. __8__ Not only that but you'll be helping to stimulate (激发) your local economy by buying from local farmers and you get to interact with them too.
__9__ You may not want a full blown home vegetable garden in your backyard but certain spices and vegetables can be grown for relatively cheap and without much daily maintenance.
