了解因果关系
有时两种观点或两个想法是通过因果关系相互联系的。也就是说,一件事导致了另一件事的发生。因果关系可以是直接的。例如,“天下雨了,所以我拿起了伞。”然而,有些因果关系不是直接的,有些因果关系也可能不止一个。
Part 2 教材原文助读
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.” 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 to our personality,character,and culture.
①put more simply更简单地说
put vt.[熟词生义]说,表达
文化和美食
法国作家让·安泰尔姆·布里亚-萨瓦兰曾写道:“告诉我你吃什么,我就能知道你是什么样的人。”更简单地说,这就是说“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、性格和文化。
Certainly,in many ways this seems to be true. Chinese cuisine is a case in point②. Prior to③ coming to China,my only experience with Chinese cooking was in America,with Chinese food that had been changed to suit American tastes④. For example,America's most popular Chinese dish is General Tso's chicken,which consists of⑤ fried chicken covered in a sweet sauce,flavoured⑥ with hot red peppers⑦. This is probably not an authentic Chinese recipe⑧,however,so 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 bold⑨,simple flavours. And,since the dish was also invented recently,it tells us that Americans are not afraid to try new foods.
prior to coming to China为时间状语,with短语with Chinese food that had been changed to suit American tastes中包含一个that引导的定语从句,修饰Chinese food。
画线部分中的which引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词General Tso's chicken;过去分词短语covered in a sweet sauce和flavoured with hot red peppers作后置定语,修饰 fried chicken。
②a case in point恰当的例证
③prior to...在……之前的(to为介词)
prior/'praIə(r)/adj.先前的;优先的
priority n.[C]优先事项,最重要的事,首要事情;[U]优先权
④suit one's taste适应/满足某人的口味
⑤consist of由……组成(或构成)
consist/kən'sIst/vi.由……组成(或构成);在于,存在于
⑥flavour vt.给(食物或饮料)调味,加味于n.[U](食物或饮料的)味道;[C](某种)味道
⑦hot red peppers红辣椒
pepper/'pepə(r)/n.甜椒;灯笼椒;胡椒粉
⑧recipe/'resəpi/n.[C]烹饪法;食谱
⑨bold/bəʊld/adj.大胆自信的;敢于冒险的
当然,在很多方面,这句话似乎是正确的。中国菜肴就是一个恰当的例子。来中国之前,我对中国烹饪的唯一体验就是在美国,当时的中餐已经做了改变以满足美国人的口味。例如,美国最受欢迎的中国菜是左宗棠甜辣鸡,它是由涂有甜酱的炸鸡组成,用红辣椒调味。然而这可能不是正宗的中国烹饪法,所以它不能告诉我们太多关于中国的事情。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大胆的、简单的口味。而且,由于这道菜是最近才发明的,它告诉我们美国人并不害怕尝试新食物。
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 chef⑩ just began filling our table with the best food we had ever eaten. With this,we had the pleasure of experiencing an entirely⑪ new taste:Sichuan peppercorns⑫. The food was wonderful and different,but what was even more important was the friendship offered us.
句中的“tired,hungry,and not knowing a word of Chinese”为状语,表示“我们”当时的状态。
what was even more important是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。
⑩chef/ʃef/n.厨师;主厨
⑪entirely adv.完全地,彻底地
entire adj.全部的;整个的;完全的(=whole)
⑫peppercorn/'pepəkɔːn/n.胡椒粒
后来,我有机会来到中国,体验真正的中国菜。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,但更重要的是我们感受到的友好。
We soon moved to Shandong Province in the eastern part of North China.My favourite dish there was boiled dumplings served with vinegar⑬. 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 affair⑭ with everyone—from the youngest to the oldest—joining in to help. Later,I learnt that the most famous food in Shandong is pancake rolls⑮ stuffed⑯ with sliced⑰ Chinese green onions⑱.
句中的where引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词North China,where在从句中作地点状语。making dumplings为动名词短语作主语,谓语动词用单数形式。
⑬vinegar/'vInIɡə(r)/n.醋
⑭a family affair一件家务事
⑮pancake rolls卷饼;春卷
pancake n.[C]薄饼
roll n.[C]卷
⑯stuff/stʌf/vt.填满,把……塞进n.[U]东西;物品
stuff...with...用……填满……(常用被动语态be stuffed with...)
[形近]staff/stɑːf/n.全体职工(或雇员)(单复数同形)
⑰slice/slaIs/vt.把……切成薄片n.[C](切下的食物)薄片
slice...off切下
⑱onion/'ʌnjən/n.[C,U]洋葱;葱头
很快我们就到了华北地区东部的山东省。在那里我最喜欢的菜是蘸醋水饺。我发现对于那里的人来说家庭很重要。水饺已经成为华北地区最受人们喜爱的传统食物。在那里,包饺子一直是全家人一起做的事情,从最年幼的到最年长的,每个人都要加入这个家庭事务中来帮忙。后来我才知道,山东最有名的美食是煎饼卷大葱。
Then we moved to northern Xinjiang. Some of our friends were Kazak and Inner Mongolian.These groups traditionally wandered⑲ the open range⑳ on horses. As a result,their traditional foods are what you can cook over an open fire㉑ —usually boiled or roasted meat㉒,such as lamb kebab㉓.
此处what引导表语从句,what在从句中作cook的宾语。
⑲wander vt.& vi.漫游,徘徊,游荡
⑳the open range开阔的草原
open adj.[熟词生义]开阔的,未围上的
range n.[熟词生义]牧场
㉑over an open fire在户外的火堆上
㉒roasted meat烤肉
roast vi.& vt.烘,烤,焙(肉等)
㉓lamb kebab/kI'bæb/烤羊肉串
lamb/læm/n.[U]羊羔肉;[C]羔羊,小羊
后来我们到了新疆北部。我们的一些朋友是哈萨克族人和内蒙古人。传统上,这些民族骑着马在开阔的草原上游荡。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,比如烤羊肉串。
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 elegant㉔ dim sum㉕—small servings㉖ of food in bamboo steamers㉗—to the exceptional㉘ stewed noodles㉙ 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.
㉔elegant/'elIɡənt/adj.精美的;文雅的;讲究的
㉕dim sum/ˌdIm 'sʌm/n.点心(中国食品)
㉖serving n.[C](供一个人吃的)一份食物
㉗steamer n.[C]蒸笼,蒸锅
steamed adj.蒸的
steamed bread馒头
㉘exceptional/Ik'sepʃənl/adj.特别的;罕见的
exception n.[C,U]例外
㉙stewed noodles烩面;煮面
后来我们又游历了华南地区,随后去了华中地区。在去过的每一个地方,我们都品尝了当地的美食,从广东精致的点心(用竹制蒸笼盛装的小份食物)到河南独特的烩面。每个地方、食物和人都一样多样化。然而,有一件事总是真的:每个地方的中国人都通过食物表现出友好和善良。
At a minimum㉚,the kinds of food local people consume㉛ 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 to㉜ have a hot temper㉝ ?Maybe.Maybe not.What we can say,however,is that culture and cuisine go hand in hand㉞,and if you do not experience one,you can never really know the other.
local people consume为省略了关系词that或which的定语从句,修饰先行词the kinds of food;三个what引导的宾语从句作tell的宾语。
画线部分中的that those who like bold flavours are bold themselves和that those who like spicy food tend to have a hot temper均为that引导的宾语从句,作say的宾语,两个宾语从句中都含有who引导的定语从句,都修饰先行词those。第二个宾语从句中的that不可以省略。
what we can say是what引导的主语从句,that culture and cuisine go hand in hand是that引导的表语从句。
㉚at a/the minimum至少
minimum/'mInIməm/adj.最低(限度)的;最小的n.[C,usually sing.]最小值;最少量
[反义]maximum adj.最高的,最多的,最大极限的n.[usually sing.]最大量,最大限度
㉛consume/kən'sjuːm/vt.吃;喝;饮;消耗
㉜tend to往往会,常常就
㉝a hot temper脾气暴躁
hot adj.[熟词生义]易发怒的;(脾气)暴躁的
temper/'tempə(r)/n.[C,U]脾气,火气
lose/control one's temper发脾气/控制脾气
good-tempered/bad-tempered adj.脾气好的/易怒的
㉞go hand in hand密切关联,息息相关
至少,当地人食用的食物种类告诉我们,他们在当地种植什么,过着什么样的生活,他们喜欢和不喜欢什么。比如,我们可以说那些喜欢大胆口味的人本身就很大胆?或者说,喜欢辛辣食物的人往往脾气比较火暴?也许是。也许不是。然而,我们可以说的是,文化和美食是紧密相关的,如果你没有体验过其中一个,就永远不能真正了解另外一个。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
One of the most popular street foods found in China is no doubt the barbecue. A new series, called Chinese Barbecue, tells the story of this popular food cooked over hot coals on just about every street corner in cities and towns across the country. Barbecued meat is an important part of people's nightlife.
Shown on June 20, the series has had more than 80 million clicks on the Internet. To find the most popular barbecue stalls (摊位), the production team travelled to more than 500 locations in 30 cities across the country. Some viewers compare Chinese Barbecue to Midnight Diner, a Japanese TV series telling stories from late-night informal Japanese bars.
“I'm happy to hear this comparison because Midnight Diner is a good program, and we share the same topic — night food,” Chinese Barbecue's director Chen Yingjie said. “However, in terms of the tone, they are quite different.” He said that Midnight Diner focused more on food itself, though there was some conversation while people were eating. In contrast, the night food scene of Chinese people means joy and a more lively spirit. People eating these barbecue snacks develop a feeling of connection, which can be a cure for loneliness.
The barbecue, regarded as the most ordinary and common night street snack, is different from home-made food by mothers as that is a symbol of family, and kinship. The barbecue is where you go to become connected to people in society. And unlike official business lunches, during which people are rather reserved and polite, the barbecue lets people relax with old friends and new friends, leaving a lasting impression of friendship.
The world, as a whole, holds deep-rooted good feelings toward the barbecue, either for the taste or the warmth produced by fire. “What we should do is present the Chinese barbecue just the way it is because with its special ingredients (食材), ways of cooking, and more importantly, the special environment and people, the world will recognize it and might fall in love with it just as we do,” said Chen.

Have you ever wondered what the food you eat every day can tell you about where you come from? Have you ever wondered why people from different parts of the world eat different types of food? Do you ever ask yourself why certain foods or culinary (烹饪的) traditions are so important to your culture? There is more of a connection between food and culture than you may think.
On an individual level, we grow up eating the food of our cultures. It becomes a part of who each of us is. Many of us associate food from our childhood with warm feelings and good memories and it ties us to our families, holding a special and personal value for us.
On a larger scale, food is an important part of culture. Traditional cuisine is passed down from one generation to the next. It also operates as an expression of cultural identity. Immigrants bring the food of their countries with them wherever they go and cooking traditional food is a way of preserving their culture when they move to new places.
In China, harmony is a vital quality in almost every aspect of life. This is reflected in Chinese cuisine, where almost every flavor is used in a balanced way creating delicious dishes with flavors that go well together. The cuisine of the United States also reflects its history. The European colonization of the Americas brought European ingredients and cooking styles to the U.S.
As the world becomes more globalized, it is easier to access cuisines from different cultures. We should embrace our heritage through our culture's food but we should also become more informed about other cultures by trying their foods. It's important to remember that each dish has a special place in the culture to which it belongs, and is special to those who prepare it.

As with most vegetables, it all starts with seeds. But instead of allowing the plant to grow to its full potential, microgreens are created when the plant is harvested shortly after it starts to grow. The result is a strong flavor and an ingredient that packs a variety of nutrients and health benefits in a tiny, delicious package. The Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry states that microgreens have increased levels of vitamins E, C and K. 2
