Part 3 (para7): Conclusion--culture and cuisine go hand in hand. How is the passage developed? Detail Reading: Para 1 The 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 healthy eating. However, Brillat-Savarin was referring to our personality, character and culture. Q1.What’s the purpose of the author using the quote in Para1? Q2. Why does the author said “You are what you eat”? To introduce the topic. cause effect Because we eat junk food, we become fatter. Because we eat healthy food, we become slimmer. Certainly, in many ways this seems to be true. Chinese cuisine is a case in point. Prior to coming to China, my only experience with Chinese cooking was in America, with Chinese food that had been changed to suit American tastes. 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. This is probably not an authentic Chinese recipe, however, 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, simple flavours. And, since the dish was also invented recently, it tells us that Americans are not afraid to try new foods. Q1. What is the most popular Chinese food in America? How is it made? Q2. What can the dishes tell us about Americans? Q3. Why is it not an authentic(真正的) Chinese food? cause effect Because Americans love bold, simple flavours, General Tso’s chicken was changed to suit their taste. While Reading: Para 2 Detail Reading: Para 2 Welcome to China prior to coming to China later 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, 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. Q1. In Beijing, where did the author and the family enjoy the Chinese food? Q2. Why did the author love the dishes in Sichuan restaurant? Because The food was wonderful and different, and people are friendly there, the author love the dishes in Sichuan restaurant. Detail Reading: Para 3 cause effect Deep thinking (Cultural Value) Why do people in Sichuan like spicy food? They are bold/brave. They need pepper to resist rainy and wet weather. The weather in Sichuan is suitable for growing peppers. prior to coming to China later soon 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 with everyone---from the youngest to the oldest---joining in to help. Later, I learnt that the most famous food in Shandong is pancake rolls stuffed with sliced Chinese green onions. Q1. What is the favourite traditional dish in North China? Q2. What’s the most famous food in Shandong? Q3. Why is dumpling the most famous food in North China? cause effect Because family is important to people in Shandong, dumpling is the most famous food. Detail Reading: Para 4 Deep thinking (Cultural Value) 1. What cultural value does dumpling convey? Dumpling conveys reunion, love between families, inclusion and harmony. 2. Can you think of other food that carries the same meanings as dumpling? mooncake, yuanxiao prior to coming to China later soon then 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---usually boiled or roasted meat, such as lamb kebab. Q1. What is the traditional dish for the people in Xinjiang? Q2. Why do they cook food over an open fire? cause effect Because these groups traditionally wandered the open range on horses. As a result, their traditional foods are what you can cook over an open fire. Detail Reading: Para 5 Deep thinking (cultural value) What personalities can the food in Xinjiang convey? strong, straightforward, frank, easygoing prior to coming to China later soon then then 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. Q1. What kind of Chinese dishes did the author enjoy in South China and Central China? Q2. What can we learn about Chinese through food? Cultural Value: Through food, Chinese people everywhere show friendship and kindness. Detail Reading: Para 6 At a minimum, the kinds of food local people consume tell us what they grow in their region, what kinds of lives they lead, and what they like and do not like. 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? Maybe. Maybe not. What we can say, however, is that culture and cuisine go hand in hand, and if you do not experience one, you can never really know the other. Detail Reading: Para 7 Q1.
