CULTURE AND CUISINE
The French author Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin once wrote, “Tell me what you eat, and I will tell you what you are．” [1] Put more simply①， this means “You are what you eat．” Most people today relate this saying to healthy eating．However, Brillat-Savarin was actually referring to② our personality, character, and culture．
[1]“祈使句＋and＋陈述句”句型。祈使句表示条件，连词and后的陈述句表示一种结果，且该陈述句常用一般将来时。
Certainly，in many ways this seems to be true．Chinese cuisine is a case in point③．Prior to④ coming to China, my only experience with Chinese cooking was in America, with Chinese food that had been changed to suit American tastes⑤[2]．For example, America's most popular Chinese dish is General Tso's chicken, which consists of⑥fried chicken[3] covered in a sweet sauce，flavoured⑦ with hot red
peppers⑧[4]．This is probably not an authentic Chinese recipe⑨， however, so it cannot tell us much about the Chinese．On the other hand⑩， it does tell[5] us a lot about Americans． It tells us, for example, that Americans love bold ， simple flavours． And, since the dish was also invented recently, it tells us that Americans are not afraid to try new foods．
[2]that引导的定语从句，修饰Chinese food；had been changed为过去完成时的被动语态。
[3]非限制性定语从句，修饰General Tso's chicken。
[4]两个过去分词短语作后置定语，修饰fried chicken。
[5]“do/does/did＋动词原形”强调谓语动词。
Later, I had a chance to experience authentic Chinese food by coming to China．When my family and I had just arrived in China, we went looking for a good place to eat in Beijing．A Sichuan restaurant had been recommended to us by a friend, and finally, we found it．Tired, hungry, and not knowing a word of Chinese[6], we had no idea how to order, so the chef just began filling our table with the best food we had ever eaten．With this, we had the pleasure of experiencing an entirely new taste: Sichuan peppercorns． The food was wonderful and different, but what was even more important was the friendship offered us[7]．
[6]and 连接的形容词和动词-ing形式短语作状语。
[7]what引导的主语从句，what在从句中作主语，offered us为过去分词短语作后置定语，修饰the friendship。
We 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 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[8] with everyone—from the youngest to the oldest—joining in to help[9]．Later, I learnt that the most famous food in Shandong is pancake rolls stuffed with sliced Chinese green onions．
[8]非限制性定语从句，where在从句中作地点状语。
[9]“with＋代词＋动词-ing形式”结构，作定语修饰affair。
Then we moved to northern Xinjiang．Some of our friends were Kazak and Inner Mongolian．These groups traditionally wandered the open range on horses．As a result, their traditional foods are what you can cook over an open fire[10]—usually boiled or roasted meat ，such as lamb kebab ．
［10］表语从句，what在从句中作cook的宾语。
Our travels then took us to South China, and then on to central China．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．Everywhere, the food was as varied as the people．However, one thing is always true: Through food, Chinese people everywhere show friendship and kindness．
At a minimum ， the kinds of food local people consume [11] tell us what they grow in their region, what kinds of lives they lead, and what they like and do not like[12]．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 [13] Maybe．Maybe not．What we can say[14], however, is that culture and cuisine go hand in hand [15]，and if you do not experience one, you can never really know the other．
[11]省略关系词that/which的定语从句。
[12]三个what引导的宾语从句作tell的宾语。
[13]两个that引导的宾语从句，作say的宾语，第二个that不能省略。
[14]what引导的主语从句。
[15]that引导的表语从句。
文化和美食
法国作家让·安泰尔姆·布里亚·萨瓦兰曾写道：“告诉我你平时吃什么，我就能知道你是什么样的人。”更简单地说，这句话的意思是“人如其食”。今天大多数人把这句话和健康饮食联系起来。然而，布里亚·萨瓦兰实际上指的是我们的个性、品格和文化。
当然，在很多方面这句话似乎是正确的。中国菜肴就是一个很好的例子。在来中国之前，我只在美国接触过中式烹饪，那里的中国食物已被改变，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甜辣鸡。它在油炸的鸡肉上淋上甜酱，再佐以红辣椒制成。然而这可能并不是正宗的中餐做法，因此并不能让我们对中国人了解多少。另一方面，它确实告诉了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、简单的口味。此外，由于这道菜也是新发明的，说明美国人并不害怕尝试新的菜品。
后来，我来到中国，有机会品尝地道的中国食物。我和家人刚到中国时，在北京寻找吃饭的好地方。一位朋友向我们推荐了一家川菜馆，最终我们找到了它。又累又饿，一个汉字也不认识，我们压根儿不知道如何点餐，于是厨师在我们桌上摆满了食物，那是我们吃过的最可口的佳肴。因此，我们很高兴地体验了一种全新的味道：四川花椒。这种食物又美味又与众不同，但更重要的是我们所获得的友谊。
不久，我们到了位于华北东部的山东省。在那里我最喜欢的食物是蘸醋水饺。我发现那里的人都很重视家庭。水饺已成为华北人民最喜爱的一种传统食物。包饺子一直是一项全员参与的家庭活动，无论老少都会加入进来帮忙。后来，我了解到，山东最有名的食物是煎饼卷大葱。
随后我们到了新疆北部。我们的一些朋友是哈萨克族人和内蒙古人。传统上，这些民族在开阔的草原上骑马漂泊。因此，他们的传统食物是可以在户外火堆上烹饪的食物——通常是煮熟的或烤熟的肉，比如羊肉串。
后来我们又游历了华南地区，随后去了华中地区。我们每到一处，都会品尝当地美食，有广东精致的点心(用竹制蒸笼盛的小份食物)，还有河南独特的烩面。所到之处的美食与当地人一样精彩纷呈。然而，有一件事始终不变：每个地方的中国人都通过食物展现友情与善意。
当地人的食物种类至少能让我们知道该地区种植什么作物，人们过着怎样的生活以及他们的爱憎。例如，我们是否也能这样推断，喜欢重口味的人性格粗犷？抑或喜欢辛辣食物的人往往脾气火暴？也许是的，也许又不是。但是，我们可以确定的是，文化和美食这两者息息相关，如果你没有体验过其中的一个，你就永远无法真正了解另一个。
