Classic Cantonese Dishes and Their Hidden Stories
Cantonese cuisine, one of China’s eight major culinary styles, is admired worldwide for its fresh ingredients, delicate flavors, and strict respect for the original taste of food. What many diners fail to realize is that beneath the simple appearance of many classic Cantonese dishes lie profound historical backgrounds, emotional meanings, and even life philosophies. They are not merely food; they are carriers of culture.
White Cut Chicken
The most iconic dish of Cantonese banquets, white cut chicken, seems extremely simple: boiled in water, served with plain sauce. Yet its standard is extremely high. The chicken must be tender, juicy, and golden-skinned. Historically, this dish represented sincerity. In ancient Guangdong, families served white cut chicken during festivals and important events to show honor to guests. Its plainness was seen as a virtue — true goodness needs no strong decoration.
Shao Xing Shao Rou
This slow-cooked pork dish has been passed down for hundreds of years. It was first popular among scholars and poets, who valued its soft, mild taste. Unlike heavy-flavored dishes, Shao Xing Shao Rou requires hours of cooking to let the meat naturally absorb the taste of wine and sugar. It teaches a quiet truth: valuable things often take time and patience, which matches the character of many Cantonese people.
Steamed Grass Carp with Spring Onions
Fish has long been a symbol of abundance and good luck in southern China. Steamed fish, especially grass carp, represents modesty and elegance. Chefs emphasize that the fish should be so fresh that it tastes almost like it is still alive. The dish reminds people to value simplicity and nature, ideas deeply rooted in Cantonese culture.
Wan Dou Shao
Often served at weddings and birthdays, Wan Dou Shao, or sweet bean paste buns, carry wishes for happiness and sweetness. In old days, sending Wan Dou Shao to relatives expressed care and blessing. Even today, the dish remains a sign of warmth and good will in Cantonese communities.
1.What do the four dishes mentioned have in common?
A.They require complicated cooking skills.
B.They are related to culture, values or good wishes.
C.They were created by royal cooks.
D.They are only served during traditional festivals.
2.Which of the following is true about white cut chicken?
A.It must be cooked with rich and strong seasoning.
B.It used to show dishonor to guests in ancient times.
C.It is difficult to buy in modern Cantonese restaurants.
D.Its simplicity stands for a kind of virtue.
3.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A.To persuade readers to learn how to cook Cantonese food.
B.To compare Cantonese dishes with other Chinese cuisines.
C.To introduce classic Cantonese dishes and their cultural meanings.
D.To explain why Cantonese food is popular around the world.

B
Junji’s initial excitement upon arriving in the French town of Saint-Cirq-Lapopie for his semester abroad quickly gave way to a more complex emotion born of a growing list of worries — the unfamiliar climate, the fast-paced local language threatening to make his classroom French useless, and heavy traffic in the ancient narrow streets, yet one concern stood apart: a fear that it would be tough to fit in with the new eating pattern. What he had not anticipated, however, was that the real challenge would be social barriers, which seemed to be rooted in the very fabric of daily life.
On his third day, he wandered into a local bakery. He just pointed to a golden cake, and the baker, a woman named Sylvie, stopped for a moment and then served him in silence. When Junji paid, he said, “Thanks!” Sylvie replied with a phrase “S’il vous plaît”. Junji, assuming this was part of a polite goodbye, hurried out of the door, saying “Au revoir”. The following morning, he tried to greet his hostess Madame Moreau with a casual “Hey”, only to be met with a quiet response. Moreau explained that in France, entering a home or beginning a conversation without the formality of “Bonjour” was often perceived not as a simple mistake, but as disrespect.
The real moment of confusion, however, occurred during a community dinner. An elderly neighbor, Gaston, offered Junji a taste of his wine. Junji, wanting to be polite, declined with a wave of his hand, a gesture he considered perfectly friendly. Gaston seemed taken aback and grew so awkward. Later, Moreau explained that dealing with such an offer from an elder like that could be misinterpreted as rejecting friendship and community. In a society that valued such connections, accepting, even just symbolically, was the expected bridge.
It was then that Junji understood. His challenge was about decoding a whole new set of unwritten rules. He realized that learning to read the hidden intentions that floated beneath the surface of every interaction was crucial.
4.What bothered Junji most initially when he got to Saint-Cirq-Lapopie?
A.The fear of local socializing. B.His trouble with the local language.
C.The unfamiliar local climate. D.His lack of adaptation to the local diet.
5.What was Junji’s misstep in the local bakery?
A.He used informal responses. B.He left without any word.
C.He pointed rudely at the cake. D.He failed to greet the baker.
6.Why did Gaston feel embarrassed during the community dinner?
A.Junji talked with him symbolically. B.Junji gave an inappropriate gift to him.
C.Junji incorrectly refused his invitation. D.Junji tasted his wine without comment.
7.What does Junji’s experience indicate?
A.Cultural gap influences our communication.
B.We overcome culture shock by exploring it.
C.We should welcome cross-cultural lifestyles.
D.Culture can help discipline our daily behaviors.
【答案】4.D 5.D 6.C 7.A
【导语】这是一篇记叙文,文章主要讲述留学生俊二赴法国小镇进行一学期交换的跨文化适应经历。
4.细节理解题。根据第一段“yet one concern stood apart: a fear that it would be tough to fit in with the new eating pattern(但有一件事却格外引人关注:他担心自己很难适应新的饮食习惯)”可知,他最初最特别的担忧是无法适应当地的饮食习惯。故选D。
5.推理判断题。根据第二段中“He just pointed to a golden cake, and the baker, a woman named Sylvie, stopped for a moment and then served him in silence. When Junji paid, he said, “Thanks!” Sylvie replied with a phrase “S’il vous plaît”. (他只是指着一块金黄色的蛋糕,面包师一位名叫Sylvie的女士停顿了一下,然后默默地为他服务。当俊二付款时,他说道:“谢谢!”Sylvie则回答了一句“S’il vous plaît”。)”可知,在面包店的场景中,俊二只是指了指蛋糕,付钱时说了“Thanks”,面包师用“S’il vous plaît”(请)回应,这暗示俊二缺少了基本的问候。结合后文“Moreau explained that in France, entering a home or beginning a conversation without the formality of “Bonjour” was often perceived not as a simple mistake, but as disrespect.(莫罗解释说,在法国,如果在进入某人家中或开始交谈时没有以“你好”这样的礼节性问候开场,人们往往不会将其视为一个简单的错误,而是认为这是一种不尊重的表现)”莫罗夫人对“Bonjour”重要性的解释,可以推断他的错误在于没有用“Bonjour”等正式用语问候面包师。故选D。
6.推理判断题。根据第三段中“Junji, wanting to be polite, declined with a wave of his hand, a gesture he considered perfectly friendly. Gaston seemed taken aback and grew so awkward.(俊二出于礼貌,挥手拒绝了,他认为这个动作表现得非常友好。加斯顿显得很惊讶,变得非常尴尬)”以及莫罗夫人的解释“Later, Moreau explained that dealing with such an offer from an elder like that could be misinterpreted as rejecting friendship and community.(后来,莫罗解释说,面对像这样来自长辈的提议,可能会被误解为拒绝建立友谊和社区关系)”可知,加斯顿尴尬是因为俊二拒绝了他分享酒的好意,这在当地文化中被视为拒绝友谊。故选C。
7.推理判断题。根据全文内容,结合最后一段“It was then that Junji understood. His challenge was about decoding a whole new set of unwritten rules. He realized that learning to read the hidden intentions that floated beneath the surface of every interaction was crucial.(就在那时,俊二明白了。他的挑战在于解读一系列全新的不成文规则。他意识到,学会解读每一项互动背后潜藏的意图是至关重要的)”可知,俊二的经历说明了由于不了解当地的文化规范(如何问候、如何回应邀请),导致了误解和尴尬。这最直接地表明了文化差异对人际交流的影响。故选A。
C
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 cuisine traditions are so important to your culture? There is more of a connection between food and culture than you may think.
On a personal level, we grow up eating the food of our cultures. It becomes a part of who each of us is. Many of us connect 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, traditional cuisine is passed down from one generation to the next. It also serves as an expression of cultural identity (身份). 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 (味道) is used in a balanced way to create delicious dishes with flavors that go well together. The cuisine of the United States also reflects its history. The European colonization (殖民) of the Americas brought European ingredients and cooking styles to the U. S.
As the world becomes more globalized, it is easier to get cuisines from different cultures. We should keep our traditions through our culture’s food but we should also become more informed about other cultures by trying their foods.
8.What does the author want to express in Paragraph 1?
A.Food is less related to culture than people think.
B.People usually don’t care about the connection between food and culture.
C.Food and culture have a closer link than we might realize.
D.Different foods from around the world have the same cultural meanings.
9.What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A.Memory. B.Traditional culture.
C.Traditional cuisine. D.Generation.
10.How do people feel about Chinese food?
A.It is rich in all kinds of vitamins.
B.It balances the dishes of different countries.
C.It contains rich dishes with various flavors balanced.
D.It is extremely significant to balance people’s daily life.
11.What is the author’s attitude towards globalized food culture?
A.Negative. B.Indifferent. C.Critical. D.Positive.
【答案】8.C 9.C 10.C 11.D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章指出食物与文化的联系比想象更紧密,从个人和文化层面阐述其关联,还举例中美食物体现的文化,最后倡导在全球化中传承传统并尝试多元美食。
8.细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的“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 cuisine traditions are so important to your culture? There is more of a connection between food and culture than you may think.(你有没有想过,你每天吃的食物能告诉你你来自哪里?你有没有想过为什么来自世界不同地方的人吃不同类型的食物?你有没有问过自己,为什么某些食物或烹饪传统对你的文化如此重要?食物和文化之间的联系比你想象的要多。)”可知,作者在第一段想要表达的是食物和文化之间的联系比我们可能意识到的要更紧密。故选C项。
9.词句猜测题。根据文章第三段中的“On a larger scale, traditional cuisine is passed down from one generation to the next. It also serves as an expression of cultural identity (身份).(从更大的范围来看,传统美食是一代一代传下来的。它也是文化身份的一种表达。)”可知,传统美食是一代一代传下来的,它也是文化身份的一种表达,所以此处的“It”指代的是前文提到的“Traditional cuisine(传统美食)”。故选C项。
10.细节理解题。根据文章第四段中的“In China, harmony is a vital quality in almost every aspect of life. This is reflected in Chinese cuisine, where almost every flavor (味道) is used in a balanced way to create delicious dishes with flavors that go well together.(在中国,和谐几乎是生活各个方面的重要品质。这反映在中国菜中,几乎每一种味道都以平衡的方式使用,创造出味道相得益彰的美味佳肴。)”可知,人们认为中国菜包含了丰富多样的菜肴,且各种味道都平衡得很好。故选C项。
11.推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中的“As the world becomes more globalized, it is easier to get cuisines from different cultures. We should keep our traditions through our culture’s food but we should also become more informed about other cultures by trying their foods.(随着世界变得更加全球化,更容易获得来自不同文化的美食。我们应该通过我们文化的食物来保持我们的传统,但我们也应该通过尝试其他文化的食物来更多地了解它们。)”可知,作者认为随着世界变得更加全球化,我们应该通过尝试其他文化的食物来更多地了解它们,由此可推断出作者对全球化的饮食文化持积极态度。故选D项。
D
Cross-cultural study tours, exemplified by international students’ experiences in Chinese universities, have come out as a vital component of global education. Far beyond tourism, these programs cultivate competencies essential for navigating an interconnected world, as illustrated by the journey of Ada, an American student in Beijing.
Participants often face linguistic and cultural barriers. Ada initially struggled with rapid Mandarin in physics classes and conflicts between collectivist lab norms (emphasizing group effort) and her individualist learning style. Such challenges, however, became opportunities to develop adaptability — a core 21st-century skill. By working with a bilingual “culture buddy”, she learned to reframe “differences” as complementary (互补) perspectives, turning potential frustration into cognitive growth.
The tours emphasize experiential learning over textbook knowledge. Ada’s field trip to study bird migration, where she combined Western data analysis with Chinese ink-wash sketching, demonstrated how cross-cultural integration enriches problem-solving. Joint projects, like mapping the village ecosystem, further nourished teamwork and respect for diverse approaches. These experience allow a sense of shared responsibility for global issues, from environment conservation to cultural preservation.
Living with local peers and participating in daily routines — from trying spicy cuisine to using mobile payments — breaks down stereotypes. Ada’s initial hesitation gave way to genuine connections: she presented American holidays to classmates and received handwritten notes in return. This joint exchange boosts empathy, teaching students to see the world through others’ eyes.
Essentially, cross-cultural study tours transform “strangers” into “global neighbors”. By integrating challenges, cooperation, and immersion, they equip students with the mindset and skills to thrive in a diverse world — proving that education’s true value lies not in avoiding differences, but in celebrating them.
12.What can be inferred about Ada’s initial experience?
A.She made difficulties into chances for growth.
B.She skillfully handled cultural barriers first.
C.The culture buddy totally solved her problems.
D.The challenges made her give up her studies.
13.What does Ada’s bird migration study prove about cross-cultural mixing?
A.It urges scientific research.
B.It enhances problem-solving.
C.It assists experiential learning.
D.It promotes the application of data.
14.What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A.Ada’s personal hobbies in China.
B.Mobile payments’ popularity abroad.
C.Sharing culture builds cultural empathy.
D.Holidays bridge culture recognition gap.
15.What can be a suitable title for the passage?
A.Ada’s Experience in China: Breaking Ice
B.Cross-cultural Output: Defeating Barriers
C.Ada’s Journey: From Frustration to Friendship
D.Cultural Exchange: A Path to Global Neighbors
【答案】12.A 13.B 14.C 15.D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章以美国学生Ada在中国的经历为例,介绍跨文化研学旅行的意义及对学生能力的培养。
12.推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Ada initially struggled with rapid Mandarin in physics classes and conflicts between collectivist lab norms (emphasizing group effort) and her individualist learning style. (Ada 最初在物理课上难以适应语速较快的普通话,也面临着集体主义实验室规范(强调团队努力)与她个人主义学习风格之间的冲突)”以及“Such challenges, however, became opportunities to develop adaptability — a core 21st-century skill. (然而,这些挑战成为了培养适应能力的机会 —— 这是 21 世纪的一项核心技能)”可推断,Ada最初的经历中,她将遇到的困难转化成了成长的机会。故选A项。
13.细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Ada’s field trip to study bird migration, where she combined Western data analysis with Chinese ink-wash sketching, demonstrated how cross-cultural integration enriches problem-solving. (Ada 去研究鸟类迁徙的实地考察中,将西方的数据分析与中国的水墨画素描相结合,这展示了跨文化融合如何丰富解决问题的方式)”可知,Ada 的鸟类迁徙研究证明了跨文化融合能增强解决问题的能力。故选B项。
14.主旨大意题。根据第四段中的“Living with local peers and participating in daily routines — from trying spicy cuisine to using mobile payments — breaks down stereotypes. (与当地同龄人同住,参与日常生活 —— 从尝试辛辣美食到使用移动支付 —— 打破了刻板印象)”以及“This joint exchange boosts empathy, teaching students to see the world through others’ eyes. (这种联合交流增强了同理心,教会学生从他人的角度看世界)”可知,该段主要讲述了通过文化分享,Ada与当地同学建立联系,增强了文化同理心。故选C项。
15.主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章开篇点明跨文化研学旅行是全球教育的重要组成部分,接着以Ada的经历为例,介绍了跨文化研学旅行如何帮助学生克服障碍、增强能力、建立同理心,最后总结跨文化研学旅行能将“陌生人”变成 “全球邻居”。D选项“文化交流:通往全球邻居的道路”能概括全文主旨,适合作本文标题。故选D项。

Traditional festivals are an important part of Chinese culture. 16 So it’s high time we protected and maintained them.
Traditional festivals teach us a lot about our nation’s history. The Dragon Boat Festival, for example, is celebrated in honour of Qu Yuan, a great poet living in ancient China. 17 Promoting traditional festivals helps spread knowledge about national history.
18 Many festivals, such as the Mid-Autumn Festival, have a caring, family-centred message at their heart. The full moon at the festival is considered to stand for family reunion, and family members will come back home even if they live far away. With the celebrations of these festivals, younger generations learn to honour fine Chinese values.
Finally, traditional festivals are a source of national pride and help shape our sense of national identity (身份,同一性). For example, we celebrate the Hanshi Festival and the Laba Festival with unique customs, and these shared experiences bring us together as a people (民族). 19
Traditional festivals have been passed down to us from previous generations. 20

33.考查动词词义辨析。句意:所有这些时刻都教会了我一些东西。A. owed欠;B. promised承诺;C. saved拯救;D. taught教。根据后文“The biggest lesson is that culture shocks, as well as other shocks in life, are actually to see the world from a new angle.”可知,这些时刻教会了作者一些东西。故选D。

The great smell of cooking beef soup and the impressive skills of noodle chefs bring many customers to Ox Lan. This popular restaurant is in Stockholm, the capital of Sweden, 36 a traditional Chinese noodle dish has become a big hit.
The idea of opening Ox Lan started when Zhou Yan from China visited Stockholm in 2023. He found Japanese ramen (拉面) and Vietnamese pho (粉) everywhere, 37 there were no real Chinese noodles. Zhou saw an opportunity 38 (introduce) Swedes to his hometown’s special-beef noodles.
“I’ve always found 39 strange that American fast food is everywhere but Chinese isn’t.” Zhou said. He then learned Swedish business rules, 40 (hire) a good noodle chef, and opened Sweden’s first Lanzhou noodle shop.
Now 70% of customers are Swedish. They love watching chefs turn dough into noodles. People can choose the 41 (wide) of their noodles, from a delicate 0.5 mm to a robust 50 mm strand. “In Lanzhou, the most popular choice is erxi (二细) for its perfect balance of texture and bite,” he added. “But in Sweden, there isn’t a favorite yet. People are open to trying all seven 42 (option).”
“ 43 (date) back to 1915, this food tradition originated in Lanzhou, which is home 44 an estimated 2,000 to 3,000 beef noodle shops.” Zhou said proudly. He plans to open more restaurants in Spain and other countries, hoping more people in major 45 (Europe) cities will enjoy real Chinese fast food.
【答案】
36.where 37.but 38.to introduce 39.it 40.hired 41.width 42.options 43.Dating 44.to 45.European
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了Zhou Yan发现瑞典斯德哥尔摩缺少正宗中国面条后,抓住机会向瑞典人介绍兰州特色牛肉面并开设了面馆,还计划在更多欧洲国家开餐厅,让更多人品尝到正宗中国美食的故事。
36.考查定语从句。句意:这家受欢迎的餐厅位于瑞典首都斯德哥尔摩,传统的中国面食在这里大受欢迎。此处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词为Stockholm,空处在从句中作地点状语,应用关系副词where引导。故填where。
37.考查连词。句意:他发现到处都能见到日式拉面和越南式的粉面,但根本见不到真正的中国面条。前后转折:到处有日、越粉,但没有正宗中国面,为转折关系,用连词but。故填but。
38.考查非谓语动词。句意:周看到了一个向瑞典人介绍他家乡特色牛肉面的机会。an opportunity to do sth.是固定用法,意为“做某事的机会”,此处用动词不定式作后置定语修饰名词opportunity。故填to introduce。
39.考查it作形式宾语。句意:“我一直觉得很奇怪,美国快餐到处都是,但中国快餐却不是。”周说。that American fast food is everywhere but Chinese isn’t是found的宾语,that引导的宾语从句是真正的宾语,此空应用it作形式宾语。故填it。
40.考查动词时态。句意:然后他学习了瑞典的商业规则,雇了一个好厨师,开了瑞典第一家兰州面馆。根据“learned..., and opened (学习了……开了……)”可知,此句是三个并列谓语,应统一用一般过去时。故填hired。
41.考查名词。句意:人们可以选择面条的宽度,从精致的0.5毫米到粗壮的50毫米不等。根据“the... of”可知,此空应用名词作宾语,wide的名词形式是width,意为“宽度”。故填width。
42.考查名词。句意:人们乐于尝试所有七种选择。根据“seven (七个)”可知,此空是可数名词复数,option的复数形式是options。故填options。
43.考查非谓语动词。句意:这种美食传统可追溯到1915年,起源于兰州,那里大约有2000到3000家牛肉面馆。date back to意为“追溯到”,无被动形式,用法是“sth. dates back to...”,this food tradition和date是主谓关系,故此空用现在分词dating。句首字母大写,故填Dating。
44.考查固定短语。句意:这种美食传统可以追溯到兰州,那里大约有2000到3000家牛肉面馆。be home to是固定短语,意为“是……的所在地;是……的家园”。故填to。
45.考查形容词。句意:他计划在西班牙和其他国家开更多餐厅,希望更多欧洲主要城市的人能品尝到真正的中国美食。此空修饰名词cities,应用形容词作定语,名词Europe的形容词形式是European。故填European。

第二节(满分25分)
47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
“Petey, we’re here!” Seeing the familiar house, Annie excitedly turned to the backseat. “Yeah, for that sticky rice stuff,” said her brother, his eyes fixed on his phone. Mom sighed. She had tried explaining all week that making nian gao was the perfect way for them, a Chinese American family, to welcome the Lunar New Year. But to 15-year-old Petey, it was just a boring, messy old tradition — not part of his modern life.
When they arrived, Grandpa was already waiting at the front door. Drawn by the nice smell, Annie rushed into the kitchen. Petey followed slowly. “Doing this again?”
Grandpa led Petey to the kitchen. “We leave the sticky rice in water overnight, and then steam it,” he explained. “Then we hit it while it’s hot until it becomes a smooth dough (面团). It’s how we welcome the new year — with sweetness.” He held out a long wooden pounding stick to Petey. “Want to try?” “I’m okay,” Petey said, stepping back with his hands in his pockets. He watched from the side as Annie hit the rice.
Finally, after Annie finished her job, Grandma brought the big, warm and soft dough to the table. Dad, who arrived late because of some work things, also joined everyone in the kitchen. “This is the last step,” Grandma said, shaping the dough skillfully with her rough but gentle hands. As she made a small cake, her eyes fell on an old photo of her own mother on the wall. “My mom said the warmth of nian gao is the warmth of a family,” she continued, holding the cake out to Petey. “Every generation makes its own choice about traditions. Some keep them with their hands, some with their hearts.” She smiled, her tired yet hopeful eyes meeting his. “Would you like to try now?”
注意:
(1) 续写词数应为150个左右;
(2) 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
Petey took the cake and had a bite.

When Petey finished shaping the cakes, he handed the first one to Grandma.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】范文
Petey took the cake and had a bite. The soft, glutinous texture melted in his mouth, sweet but not cloying, carrying the faint fragrance of steamed rice. It was nothing like the boring food he had imagined — there was a warm, familiar taste, like the hugs Grandpa gave him when he was little. Grandma watched him quietly, a smile playing on her lips. Petey put down the cake, reached out his hand, and picked up the wooden pounding stick. “Can I try again?” he said softly, his voice no longer full of indifference.
When Petey finished shaping the cakes, he handed the first one to Grandma. His fingers were still sticky with dough, but his eyes shone brightly. “Grandma, this is for you,” he said, a little shy but sincere. “It’s perfect, my boy,” she whispered, her eyes filled with tears of joy. Petey looked around the kitchen — Annie was laughing, Dad was taking photos, and Grandpa was patting his shoulder proudly. He suddenly understood: nian gao wasn’t just a tradition; it was the warmth of family, passed down from generation to generation.
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了华裔美国家庭的Annie和Petey回到爷爷家准备过年做年糕。Petey一开始觉得传统无聊、不在意,只沉迷手机。在爷爷讲解、奶奶讲述年糕里的家族温暖后,他尝了年糕,感受到熟悉又温暖的家的味道,主动参与制作。最终Petey理解了年糕不只是传统,更是代代相传的亲情与家的温暖。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“Petey拿起了那块年糕,咬了一口”可知,第一段可描写Petey尝了年糕,感受到熟悉又温暖的家的味道,主动参与制作。
②由第二段首句内容“当Petey完成年糕的塑形后,他把第一块递给了奶奶”可知,第二段可描写最终Petey理解了年糕不只是传统,更是代代相传的亲情与家的温暖。

Classic Cantonese Dishes and Their Hidden Stories
Cantonese cuisine, one of China’s eight major culinary styles, is admired worldwide for its fresh ingredients, delicate flavors, and strict respect for the original taste of food. What many diners fail to realize is that beneath the simple appearance of many classic Cantonese dishes lie profound historical backgrounds, emotional meanings, and even life philosophies. They are not merely food; they are carriers of culture.
White Cut Chicken
The most iconic dish of Cantonese banquets, white cut chicken, seems extremely simple: boiled in water, served with plain sauce. Yet its standard is extremely high. The chicken must be tender, juicy, and golden-skinned. Historically, this dish represented sincerity. In ancient Guangdong, families served white cut chicken during festivals and important events to show honor to guests. Its plainness was seen as a virtue — true goodness needs no strong decoration.
Shao Xing Shao Rou
This slow-cooked pork dish has been passed down for hundreds of years. It was first popular among scholars and poets, who valued its soft, mild taste. Unlike heavy-flavored dishes, Shao Xing Shao Rou requires hours of cooking to let the meat naturally absorb the taste of wine and sugar. It teaches a quiet truth: valuable things often take time and patience, which matches the character of many Cantonese people.
Steamed Grass Carp with Spring Onions
Fish has long been a symbol of abundance and good luck in southern China. Steamed fish, especially grass carp, represents modesty and elegance. Chefs emphasize that the fish should be so fresh that it tastes almost like it is still alive. The dish reminds people to value simplicity and nature, ideas deeply rooted in Cantonese culture.
Wan Dou Shao
Often served at weddings and birthdays, Wan Dou Shao, or sweet bean paste buns, carry wishes for happiness and sweetness. In old days, sending Wan Dou Shao to relatives expressed care and blessing. Even today, the dish remains a sign of warmth and good will in Cantonese communities.
1.What do the four dishes mentioned have in common?
A.They require complicated cooking skills.
B.They are related to culture, values or good wishes.
C.They were created by royal cooks.
D.They are only served during traditional festivals.
2.Which of the following is true about white cut chicken?
A.It must be cooked with rich and strong seasoning.
B.It used to show dishonor to guests in ancient times.
C.It is difficult to buy in modern Cantonese restaurants.
D.Its simplicity stands for a kind of virtue.
3.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A.To persuade readers to learn how to cook Cantonese food.
B.To compare Cantonese dishes with other Chinese cuisines.
C.To introduce classic Cantonese dishes and their cultural meanings.
D.To explain why Cantonese food is popular around the world.
B
Junji’s initial excitement upon arriving in the French town of Saint-Cirq-Lapopie for his semester abroad quickly gave way to a more complex emotion born of a growing list of worries — the unfamiliar climate, the fast-paced local language threatening to make his classroom French useless, and heavy traffic in the ancient narrow streets, yet one concern stood apart: a fear that it would be tough to fit in with the new eating pattern. What he had not anticipated, however, was that the real challenge would be social barriers, which seemed to be rooted in the very fabric of daily life.
On his third day, he wandered into a local bakery. He just pointed to a golden cake, and the baker, a woman named Sylvie, stopped for a moment and then served him in silence. When Junji paid, he said, “Thanks!” Sylvie replied with a phrase “S’il vous plaît”. Junji, assuming this was part of a polite goodbye, hurried out of the door, saying “Au revoir”. The following morning, he tried to greet his hostess Madame Moreau with a casual “Hey”, only to be met with a quiet response. Moreau explained that in France, entering a home or beginning a conversation without the formality of “Bonjour” was often perceived not as a simple mistake, but as disrespect.
The real moment of confusion, however, occurred during a community dinner. An elderly neighbor, Gaston, offered Junji a taste of his wine. Junji, wanting to be polite, declined with a wave of his hand, a gesture he considered perfectly friendly. Gaston seemed taken aback and grew so awkward. Later, Moreau explained that dealing with such an offer from an elder like that could be misinterpreted as rejecting friendship and community. In a society that valued such connections, accepting, even just symbolically, was the expected bridge.
It was then that Junji understood. His challenge was about decoding a whole new set of unwritten rules. He realized that learning to read the hidden intentions that floated beneath the surface of every interaction was crucial.
4.What bothered Junji most initially when he got to Saint-Cirq-Lapopie?
A.The fear of local socializing. B.His trouble with the local language.
C.The unfamiliar local climate. D.His lack of adaptation to the local diet.
5.What was Junji’s misstep in the local bakery?
A.He used informal responses. B.He left without any word.
C.He pointed rudely at the cake. D.He failed to greet the baker.
6.Why did Gaston feel embarrassed during the community dinner?
A.Junji talked with him symbolically. B.Junji gave an inappropriate gift to him.
C.Junji incorrectly refused his invitation. D.Junji tasted his wine without comment.
7.What does Junji’s experience indicate?
A.Cultural gap influences our communication.
B.We overcome culture shock by exploring it.
C.We should welcome cross-cultural lifestyles.
D.Culture can help discipline our daily behaviors.
C
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 cuisine traditions are so important to your culture? There is more of a connection between food and culture than you may think.
On a personal level, we grow up eating the food of our cultures. It becomes a part of who each of us is. Many of us connect 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, traditional cuisine is passed down from one generation to the next. It also serves as an expression of cultural identity (身份). 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 (味道) is used in a balanced way to create delicious dishes with flavors that go well together. The cuisine of the United States also reflects its history. The European colonization (殖民) of the Americas brought European ingredients and cooking styles to the U. S.
As the world becomes more globalized, it is easier to get cuisines from different cultures. We should keep our traditions through our culture’s food but we should also become more informed about other cultures by trying their foods.
8.What does the author want to express in Paragraph 1?
A.Food is less related to culture than people think.
B.People usually don’t care about the connection between food and culture.
C.Food and culture have a closer link than we might realize.
D.Different foods from around the world have the same cultural meanings.
9.What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A.Memory. B.Traditional culture.
C.Traditional cuisine. D.Generation.
10.How do people feel about Chinese food?
A.It is rich in all kinds of vitamins.
B.It balances the dishes of different countries.
C.It contains rich dishes with various flavors balanced.
D.It is extremely significant to balance people’s daily life.
11.What is the author’s attitude towards globalized food culture?
A.Negative. B.Indifferent. C.Critical. D.Positive.
D
Cross-cultural study tours, exemplified by international students’ experiences in Chinese universities, have come out as a vital component of global education. Far beyond tourism, these programs cultivate competencies essential for navigating an interconnected world, as illustrated by the journey of Ada, an American student in Beijing.
Participants often face linguistic and cultural barriers. Ada initially struggled with rapid Mandarin in physics classes and conflicts between collectivist lab norms (emphasizing group effort) and her individualist learning style. Such challenges, however, became opportunities to develop adaptability — a core 21st-century skill. By working with a bilingual “culture buddy”, she learned to reframe “differences” as complementary (互补) perspectives, turning potential frustration into cognitive growth.
The tours emphasize experiential learning over textbook knowledge. Ada’s field trip to study bird migration, where she combined Western data analysis with Chinese ink-wash sketching, demonstrated how cross-cultural integration enriches problem-solving. Joint projects, like mapping the village ecosystem, further nourished teamwork and respect for diverse approaches. These experience allow a sense of shared responsibility for global issues, from environment conservation to cultural preservation.
Living with local peers and participating in daily routines — from trying spicy cuisine to using mobile payments — breaks down stereotypes. Ada’s initial hesitation gave way to genuine connections: she presented American holidays to classmates and received handwritten notes in return. This joint exchange boosts empathy, teaching students to see the world through others’ eyes.
Essentially, cross-cultural study tours transform “strangers” into “global neighbors”. By integrating challenges, cooperation, and immersion, they equip students with the mindset and skills to thrive in a diverse world — proving that education’s true value lies not in avoiding differences, but in celebrating them.
12.What can be inferred about Ada’s initial experience?
A.She made difficulties into chances for growth.
B.She skillfully handled cultural barriers first.
C.The culture buddy totally solved her problems.
D.The challenges made her give up her studies.
13.What does Ada’s bird migration study prove about cross-cultural mixing?
A.It urges scientific research.
B.It enhances problem-solving.
C.It assists experiential learning.
D.It promotes the application of data.
14.What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A.Ada’s personal hobbies in China.
B.Mobile payments’ popularity abroad.
C.Sharing culture builds cultural empathy.
D.Holidays bridge culture recognition gap.
15.What can be a suitable title for the passage?
A.Ada’s Experience in China: Breaking Ice
B.Cross-cultural Output: Defeating Barriers
C.Ada’s Journey: From Frustration to Friendship
D.Cultural Exchange: A Path to Global Neighbors

Traditional festivals are an important part of Chinese culture. 16 So it’s high time we protected and maintained them.
Traditional festivals teach us a lot about our nation’s history. The Dragon Boat Festival, for example, is celebrated in honour of Qu Yuan, a great poet living in ancient China. 17 Promoting traditional festivals helps spread knowledge about national history.
18 Many festivals, such as the Mid-Autumn Festival, have a caring, family-centred message at their heart. The full moon at the festival is considered to stand for family reunion, and family members will come back home even if they live far away. With the celebrations of these festivals, younger generations learn to honour fine Chinese values.
Finally, traditional festivals are a source of national pride and help shape our sense of national identity (身份,同一性). For example, we celebrate the Hanshi Festival and the Laba Festival with unique customs, and these shared experiences bring us together as a people (民族). 19
Traditional festivals have been passed down to us from previous generations. 20
A.Some will get together, appreciating the full moon.
B.It is our responsibility to protect them for the coming generations.
C.Memorising national history helps us with our all-round development.
D.Traditional festivals also enable us to learn more about fine Chinese values.
E.Traditional festivals tell us who we are and fill us with pride in being Chinese.
F.However, many traditional festivals are becoming less and less popular in modern society.
G.By celebrating it with zongzi and dragon boat races, the story of Qu Yuan is passed down from generation to generation.

“Petey, we’re here!” Seeing the familiar house, Annie excitedly turned to the backseat. “Yeah, for that sticky rice stuff,” said her brother, his eyes fixed on his phone. Mom sighed. She had tried explaining all week that making nian gao was the perfect way for them, a Chinese American family, to welcome the Lunar New Year. But to 15-year-old Petey, it was just a boring, messy old tradition — not part of his modern life.
When they arrived, Grandpa was already waiting at the front door. Drawn by the nice smell, Annie rushed into the kitchen. Petey followed slowly. “Doing this again?”
Grandpa led Petey to the kitchen. “We leave the sticky rice in water overnight, and then steam it,” he explained. “Then we hit it while it’s hot until it becomes a smooth dough (面团). It’s how we welcome the new year — with sweetness.” He held out a long wooden pounding stick to Petey. “Want to try?” “I’m okay,” Petey said, stepping back with his hands in his pockets. He watched from the side as Annie hit the rice.
Finally, after Annie finished her job, Grandma brought the big, warm and soft dough to the table. Dad, who arrived late because of some work things, also joined everyone in the kitchen. “This is the last step,” Grandma said, shaping the dough skillfully with her rough but gentle hands. As she made a small cake, her eyes fell on an old photo of her own mother on the wall. “My mom said the warmth of nian gao is the warmth of a family,” she continued, holding the cake out to Petey. “Every generation makes its own choice about traditions. Some keep them with their hands, some with their hearts.” She smiled, her tired yet hopeful eyes meeting his. “Would you like to try now?”
