Unit 3 Food and Culture Using Language Food identifies who we are, where we came from, and what we want to be. —Warren Belasco 译文：食物展现我们是谁、来自哪里，以及希望成为怎样的人。 解读：这句话强调，食物不仅用于满足生理需要，也是一种能够表现个人与群体身份的文化符号。“我们是谁”体现在人们日常选择的食材、口味、饮食禁忌和用餐礼仪中；“我们来自哪里”说明传统菜肴往往保存着家族历史、地域环境、宗教信仰及族群迁徙的记忆；而“我们想成为什么样的人”则意味着人们也会通过选择健康、环保、地方性或具有伦理意义的食物，表达自己所认同的价值观和未来生活方式。史密森尼民俗与文化遗产中心在引用贝拉斯科这句话时指出，食物能够建立并展现人与身份、家庭、文化、宗教及社会群体之间的联系，其制作和分享过程也是重要的社会文化活动；联合国粮食及农业组织同样指出，传统食物承载着文化身份、社区纽带、祖先智慧以及代代相传的故事。因此，我们吃什么、怎样烹饪以及与谁共同进餐，实际上都在讲述我们的过去、塑造我们的当下，并表达我们对未来的选择。 一、重点单词 学科网（北京）股份有限公司1 / 6 zxxk.com 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 1. n. 圆面包；小圆甜饼 2. n.（NAmE=chili）（pl. -es）辣椒 3. n. 猪肉 4. n. 珍珠 5. n. 卡路里（热量单位） 6. n. 协会；关联 7. n. 类别；种类 8. n. 维生素 9. （especially US fiber）n. 纤维；纤维制品 10. n. 数量；数额 11. n. 乳制品；乳品店；牛奶厂 12. n. 适度；合理 13. n. 诀窍；计谋；把戏 14. adv. 有点；稍微 15. adv. 不顾；不加理会 16. adv. 总体上；大致上 adj. 全面的；综合的 17. adj. 奶制的；乳品（业）的 18. adj. 完美的；理想的；想象的n. 理想；完美的人（或事物） 19. adj. 根本的；基础的；基本的 n. 基本规律；根本法则 20. adj. 一致的；连续的 21. adj. 些许的；谦虚的；朴素的 22. vi. & vt. 咀嚼；嚼碎n. 咀嚼 二、重点单词变形 1. concrete adj. 具体的；确实的；混凝土制的→ adv. 具体地；确切地 2. pearl n. 珍珠→ adj. 珍珠般的；有珍珠光泽的 3. association n. 协会；关联→ v. 联系；联想；交往 n.伙伴→ adj. 有关联的；相关的 4. regardless adv. 不顾；不加理会→ v. 把……看作；注视 n. 注意；尊重→ prep. 关于 5. category n. 类别；种类→ vt. 将……分类→ adj. 明确的；绝对的；分类的 6. quantity n. 数量；数额→ vt. 量化；确定……的数量→ adj. 数量的；定量的 7. moderation n. 适度；合理→ adj. 适度的；温和的 v. 缓和→ adv. 适度地；中等地 8. ideal adj. 理想的；完美的 n. 理想；完美的人或事物→ vt. 把……理想化→ n. 理想主义→ adj. 理想主义的；不切实际的 9. fundamental adj. 根本的；基础的 n. 基本规律；根本法则→ adv. 根本上；从根本上 10. chew v. 咀嚼；嚼碎 n. 咀嚼→ adj. 有嚼劲的；耐嚼的 11. consistent adj. 一致的；连续的→ v. 由……组成；在于→ n. 一致性；连贯性→ adv. 一贯地；一致地 12. modest adj. 谦虚的；朴素的；些许的→ n. 谦逊；朴素→ adv. 谦虚地；适度地 13. trick n. 诀窍；计谋；把戏→ adj. 棘手的；狡猾的；难对付的 三、必备词块 1. 红烧肉 2. 不管；不顾 3. 勇敢的民族 4. 辛辣食品；热食；辣食 5. 剁椒鱼头 6. 干锅炒鸭金黄杂粮包 7. 黑豆酱；豆豉酱 8. 过桥豆腐 9. 更清淡的味道 10.

It is up to sb to do sth“由某人决定做某事” 原文：It is up to you to decide how you want to live, and to make the right decisions about your diet. 你想如何生活、如何做出正确的饮食抉择，这完全取决于你自己。 分析：It is up to sb to do sth 表示“做某事由某人决定或负责”，强调某人拥有决定权，或承担采取相应行动的责任。其中it是形式主语，真正的主语是后面的不定式to do sth；up to sb表示“取决于某人、由某人作主”。因此，该句式应根据语境理解为“是否、如何做某事由某人决定”或“做某事是某人的责任”，而不宜简单理解为“某人决定去做某事”。 例句：It is up to us to choose how we respond to difficulties in life. 如何应对生活中的困难由我们自己决定。 【即学即练】 1. is up to you to decide whether we should accept the offer. 2. It is up to the government (take) effective measures to protect the environment. 3. 充分利用时间是每个学生自己的责任。 4. 新计划何时实施由委员会决定。 一、词汇易混辨析 1. regardless of/ despite/ in spite of regardless of表示“不论……；不考虑……”，强调某个因素不会影响决定、规则或结果。后面常接名词、代词，也常接whether / what / how等引导的从句。 despite表示“尽管……；即使有……”，强调存在困难、不利条件或与预期相反的情况，但后面的事情仍然发生。 in spite of意思和 despite 基本相同，都表示“尽管……”。二者通常可以互换，但despite更简洁，也略正式一些。 despite和in spite of后面通常接名词、代词或动名词，不能直接接普通的完整句子；需要接完整句子时，可以使用despite/in spite of the fact that + 从句。 记忆： regardless of = 不论、不考虑某个因素 despite = 尽管，后面没有 of in spite of = 尽管，必须保留 of 易错点1：在whether从句前误用despite ✅ Regardless of whether the weather improves, the rescue team will continue searching through the night. ❌ Despite whether the weather improves, the rescue team will continue searching through the night. 错误理由：表示“不论是否……”时，应使用固定结构regardless of whether +从句。Despite后面一般不能直接接whether + 完整从句。 易错点2：把despite错写成despite of ✅ In spite of the severe storm, the rescue workers continued searching until early morning. ❌ Despite of the severe storm, the rescue workers continued searching until early morning. 错误理由：Despite本身就是介词，后面直接接名词，不能再加of。而in spite of是一个完整的固定短语，其中的of不能省略。 2. dairy/ diary/ daily dairy可作名词或形容词，主要表示“乳制品”“乳品店、乳牛场”，或“与牛奶、乳制品有关的”。常见搭配有dairy products（乳制品）、dairy farm（乳牛场）、dairy industry（乳制品行业）。读音通常为/ˈdeə.ri/或/ˈder.i/。 diary可数名词，表示“日记、日记本”，即定期记录个人经历、活动、想法或感受的文字或本子。常见搭配有keep a diary（写日记）、write in a diary（在日记中写）。读音以 /daɪ/ 开头，与dairy明显不同。 daily可作形容词或副词。作形容词时表示“每日的、日常的”，通常放在名词前，如daily routine；作副词时表示每天，通常修饰动词，如exercise daily。它还可以作名词，表示“日报”，但不能用来表示个人日记。 易错点1：dairy和diary字母顺序容易混淆。 ✅ The nutritionist advised Emma to avoid dairy products because they caused severe stomach pain. ❌ The nutritionist advised Emma to avoid diary products because they caused severe stomach pain. 错误理由：这里要表达的是“乳制品”，固定表达是 dairy products。Diary表示“日记”，diary products会被理解成“与日记有关的产品”，不符合句意。 易错点2：diary和daily意义弄混 ✅ Marcus writes in his diary every evening to record important events from his daily life. ❌ Marcus writes in his daily every evening to record important events from his diary life. 错误理由：Diary才表示个人用来记录生活的“日记本”，所以应说write in his diary。A daily 通常指“一份日报”，不能代替diary。此外，“日常生活”应表达为daily life；diary life会变成“日记生活”，搭配不自然，也不符合原意。 3. somehow/ somewhat somehow强调方式、手段或原因不明确，意为“以某种方式、不知怎么地、莫名其妙地”。它回答的是How?（怎样？），通常修饰动词或整个句子。 somewhat强调程度有限，意为“有点、稍微、在某种程度上”，语气通常比a little更正式。它回答的是To what degree?（达到什么程度？），常修饰形容词、副词、比较级或动词。 记忆： somehow = 怎样做到的并不清楚 somewhat = 程度上有一点 易错点：把somehow误当成“有点”，或把somewhat误当成“不知怎么地”。 ✅ Somehow, we managed to find the missing documents before the meeting began this morning. ❌ Somewhat, we managed to find the missing documents before the meeting began this morning. 错误理由：句子要表达的是“通过某种不明确的方式找到了文件”，强调的是方式，所以应使用somehow。Somewhat表示“在某种程度上”，不能这样修饰整个事件来表达“不知怎么地”。 ✅ The final report was somewhat longer than the manager had originally requested from us. ❌ The final report was somehow longer than the manager had originally requested from us. 错误理由：这里想表达报告“稍微长一些”，强调长度上的程度差异，所以应使用somewhat修饰比较级 longer。使用somehow并非绝对不合语法，但意思会变成“报告不知为何变得更长”，强调原因不明，而不是“稍微更长”。 4. basic/ fundamental basic强调“基础的、初级的或最基本的”，侧重事物简单、不复杂，或者属于入门阶段。常用于表示初级知识、基本技能、基本设备或最低生活需要，如basic knowledge、basic skills、basic equipment、basic needs。 fundamental强调“根本的、起决定作用的”，指某事物是其他部分得以存在或发展的根基。它比basic语气更强、更正式，常用于抽象、重要或结构性问题，如fundamental principle、fundamental difference、fundamental change。还常用于结构be fundamental to...，表示“对……至关重要”。 核心区别： basic关注“难度或层级”：是不是简单、初级、最低限度的？ fundamental关注“重要性或根源”：是不是不可缺少、决定整体结构的？ 易错点：表示“简单、初级、功能有限”时误用fundamental；表示“根本性、结构性、决定全局”时只用basic，导致语气过弱或与语境矛盾。 ✅ She bought a basic phone because she only needed calls and text messages. ❌ She bought a fundamental phone because she only needed calls and text messages. 错误理由：这里描述的是手机“功能简单、配置基础”，应该使用basic。Fundamental 表示“根本的、决定性的”，通常不能直接修饰普通产品来表示“基础款”，因此a fundamental phone搭配不自然。 ✅ The company needs fundamental changes because its entire business model no longer works. ⚠ The company needs basic changes because its entire business model no longer works. 错误理由：Basic changes通常容易被理解为“简单或初步的调整”，但后半句说明整个商业模式已经失效，需要的是深入、结构性的改变。因此应使用语气更强的fundamental changes。这个错误并非语法错误，而是词义强度与上下文不匹配。 二、短语搭配易错 1. as to关于；至于 as to是介词短语，表示“关于；至于”，意思与about相近。它后面通常接名词、代词或疑问词引导的从句。这里的to是介词，不能把as to当作不定式结构，直接在后面接动词原形。 易错点：把as to中的to误认为不定式符号，后面直接接动词原形。 例子：✅ We had a long discussion as to the best solution to this problem. ❌ We had a long discussion as to solve this difficult problem. 2. die from/ of死于…… die of + 疾病或身体内部原因，表示因疾病、衰老、饥饿或情绪等内在原因死亡；die from + 外部原因，表示因事故、受伤、污染或其他外在因素造成的死亡。 易错点：混淆die of和die from后面所接的死亡原因。 例子：✅ Many people died of the serious disease during that cold winter. ❌ Many people died from the serious disease during that cold winter. 3. recommend doing sth建议做某事 recommend + 动名词，表示“建议做某事”。recommend后面表示具体动作时，要接动词的-ing形式，不能直接接to do。 易错点：把recommend后面的动词误用成to do。 例子：✅ Teachers recommend taking short breaks after studying for forty-five minutes. ❌ Teachers recommend to take short breaks after studying for forty-five minutes. 4. limit ... to ...把……限制在……；局限于…… limit + 名词/代词 + to + 名词、数量或动名词，表示把某事物限制在特定的范围、数量或活动内。其中，to是介词；如果后面接动词，要使用动名词形式，不能接动词原形。 易错点：把to误认为不定式符号，后面的动词误用成原形。 例子：✅ The teacher limits our classroom discussion to using English only. ❌ The teacher limits our classroom discussion to use English only. 5. a key to ...……的关键 a key to + 名词/动名词，表示“……的一个关键因素”或“……的关键之一”。这里的to是介词，后面要接名词、代词或动名词，不能直接接动词原形。 易错点：把介词to误认为不定式符号，后面错误地使用动词原形。 例子：✅ Regular practice is a key to improving your English speaking skills. ❌ Regular practice is a key to improve your English speaking skills. 三、句型易错点 1. There is evidence that... 课文：However, there is increasing evidence that the real driver of poor health is not so much fatty food, as it is sugar. 易错点：that引导同位语从句，说明evidence的具体内容，不能改为which。 例子：✅ There is strong evidence that success depends not so much on talent as on steady practice. ❌ There is strong evidence which success depends not so much on talent than on steady practice. 2. 主语 + be + 倍数 + as likely to do + as + 比较对象 课文：And in America, people who receive 25% of their daily calories or more through sugar are twice as likely to die from heart disease than people who receive less than 10% a day. 易错点：在考试英语和规范写作中，倍数比较通常使用twice as likely ... as ...，不宜使用twice as likely ... than ...。 例子：✅ Employees who sleep well are twice as likely to solve difficult problems as those who stay awake late. ❌ Employees who sleep well are twice as likely to solve difficult problems than those who stay awake late. 3. If条件状语从句 课文：In other words, if you want to be healthy, you have to cut down on desserts, and cut out sweet drinks altogether. 易错点：表示一般条件时，if从句使用一般现在时，不随意添加will。 例子：✅ If you want to improve your writing, you have to read widely and practise composing paragraphs regularly. ❌ If you will want to improve your writing, you have to read widely and practising composing paragraphs regularly. 4. What主语从句 + is + that表语从句 课文：What this means is that people who chew too quickly end up eating too much food because they still feel hungry. 易错点：What引导主语从句，要使用陈述句语序。that引导表语从句，通常不能直接省略。 例子：✅ What the survey suggests is that customers who receive quick replies end up trusting the company more. ❌ What does the survey suggest is that customers who receive quick replies end up to trust the company more. 5. It is better to do A rather than (to) do B 课文：It is also better to eat a modest amount of food each time, rather than to eat a lot in one meal, and then a little in the next. 易错点：it是形式主语，真正的主语是不定式短语，因此应使用It is better to do。rather than连接的成分要保持平行；后一个to可以保留，也可以在不引起歧义时省略。 例子：✅ It is better to review vocabulary daily rather than to memorize hundreds of words before one exam. ❌ It is better to review vocabulary daily rather than memorizing hundreds of words before one exam. 一、描述食物与饮食的常用表达 traditional food 传统食物 local cuisine 当地菜肴 regional specialties 地方特色美食 home-cooked meals

Traditional food should be preserved while being adapted to modern lifestyles. 传统食物应当在适应现代生活方式的同时得到保护。 $Unit 3 Food and Culture Using Language Food identifies who we are, where we came from, and what we want to be. —Warren Belasco 译文：食物展现我们是谁、来自哪里，以及希望成为怎样的人。 解读：这句话强调，食物不仅用于满足生理需要，也是一种能够表现个人与群体身份的文化符号。“我们是谁”体现在人们日常选择的食材、口味、饮食禁忌和用餐礼仪中；“我们来自哪里”说明传统菜肴往往保存着家族历史、地域环境、宗教信仰及族群迁徙的记忆；而“我们想成为什么样的人”则意味着人们也会通过选择健康、环保、地方性或具有伦理意义的食物，表达自己所认同的价值观和未来生活方式。史密森尼民俗与文化遗产中心在引用贝拉斯科这句话时指出，食物能够建立并展现人与身份、家庭、文化、宗教及社会群体之间的联系，其制作和分享过程也是重要的社会文化活动；联合国粮食及农业组织同样指出，传统食物承载着文化身份、社区纽带、祖先智慧以及代代相传的故事。因此，我们吃什么、怎样烹饪以及与谁共同进餐，实际上都在讲述我们的过去、塑造我们的当下，并表达我们对未来的选择。

It is up to sb to do sth“由某人决定做某事” 原文：It is up to you to decide how you want to live, and to make the right decisions about your diet. 你想如何生活、如何做出正确的饮食抉择，这完全取决于你自己。 分析：It is up to sb to do sth 表示“做某事由某人决定或负责”，强调某人拥有决定权，或承担采取相应行动的责任。其中it是形式主语，真正的主语是后面的不定式to do sth；up to sb表示“取决于某人、由某人作主”。因此，该句式应根据语境理解为“是否、如何做某事由某人决定”或“做某事是某人的责任”，而不宜简单理解为“某人决定去做某事”。 例句：It is up to us to choose how we respond to difficulties in life. 如何应对生活中的困难由我们自己决定。 【即学即练】 1. It is up to you to decide whether we should accept the offer. 2. It is up to the government to take (take) effective measures to protect the environment. 3. 充分利用时间是每个学生自己的责任。 It is up to every student to make good use of his or her time. 4. 新计划何时实施由委员会决定。 It is up to the committee to determine when the new plan will be carried out. 一、词汇易混辨析 1. regardless of/ despite/ in spite of regardless of表示“不论……；不考虑……”，强调某个因素不会影响决定、规则或结果。后面常接名词、代词，也常接whether / what / how等引导的从句。 despite表示“尽管……；即使有……”，强调存在困难、不利条件或与预期相反的情况，但后面的事情仍然发生。 in spite of意思和 despite 基本相同，都表示“尽管……”。二者通常可以互换，但despite更简洁，也略正式一些。 despite和in spite of后面通常接名词、代词或动名词，不能直接接普通的完整句子；需要接完整句子时，可以使用despite/in spite of the fact that + 从句。 记忆： regardless of = 不论、不考虑某个因素 despite = 尽管，后面没有 of in spite of = 尽管，必须保留 of 易错点1：在whether从句前误用despite ✅ Regardless of whether the weather improves, the rescue team will continue searching through the night. ❌ Despite whether the weather improves, the rescue team will continue searching through the night. 错误理由：表示“不论是否……”时，应使用固定结构regardless of whether +从句。Despite后面一般不能直接接whether + 完整从句。 易错点2：把despite错写成despite of ✅ In spite of the severe storm, the rescue workers continued searching until early morning. ❌ Despite of the severe storm, the rescue workers continued searching until early morning. 错误理由：Despite本身就是介词，后面直接接名词，不能再加of。而in spite of是一个完整的固定短语，其中的of不能省略。 2. dairy/ diary/ daily dairy可作名词或形容词，主要表示“乳制品”“乳品店、乳牛场”，或“与牛奶、乳制品有关的”。常见搭配有dairy products（乳制品）、dairy farm（乳牛场）、dairy industry（乳制品行业）。读音通常为/ˈdeə.ri/或/ˈder.i/。 diary可数名词，表示“日记、日记本”，即定期记录个人经历、活动、想法或感受的文字或本子。常见搭配有keep a diary（写日记）、write in a diary（在日记中写）。读音以 /daɪ/ 开头，与dairy明显不同。 daily可作形容词或副词。作形容词时表示“每日的、日常的”，通常放在名词前，如daily routine；作副词时表示每天，通常修饰动词，如exercise daily。它还可以作名词，表示“日报”，但不能用来表示个人日记。 易错点1：dairy和diary字母顺序容易混淆。 ✅ The nutritionist advised Emma to avoid dairy products because they caused severe stomach pain. ❌ The nutritionist advised Emma to avoid diary products because they caused severe stomach pain. 错误理由：这里要表达的是“乳制品”，固定表达是 dairy products。Diary表示“日记”，diary products会被理解成“与日记有关的产品”，不符合句意。 易错点2：diary和daily意义弄混 ✅ Marcus writes in his diary every evening to record important events from his daily life. ❌ Marcus writes in his daily every evening to record important events from his diary life. 错误理由：Diary才表示个人用来记录生活的“日记本”，所以应说write in his diary。A daily 通常指“一份日报”，不能代替diary。此外，“日常生活”应表达为daily life；diary life会变成“日记生活”，搭配不自然，也不符合原意。 3. somehow/ somewhat somehow强调方式、手段或原因不明确，意为“以某种方式、不知怎么地、莫名其妙地”。它回答的是How?（怎样？），通常修饰动词或整个句子。 somewhat强调程度有限，意为“有点、稍微、在某种程度上”，语气通常比a little更正式。它回答的是To what degree?（达到什么程度？），常修饰形容词、副词、比较级或动词。 记忆： somehow = 怎样做到的并不清楚 somewhat = 程度上有一点 易错点：把somehow误当成“有点”，或把somewhat误当成“不知怎么地”。 ✅ Somehow, we managed to find the missing documents before the meeting began this morning. ❌ Somewhat, we managed to find the missing documents before the meeting began this morning. 错误理由：句子要表达的是“通过某种不明确的方式找到了文件”，强调的是方式，所以应使用somehow。Somewhat表示“在某种程度上”，不能这样修饰整个事件来表达“不知怎么地”。 ✅ The final report was somewhat longer than the manager had originally requested from us. ❌ The final report was somehow longer than the manager had originally requested from us. 错误理由：这里想表达报告“稍微长一些”，强调长度上的程度差异，所以应使用somewhat修饰比较级 longer。使用somehow并非绝对不合语法，但意思会变成“报告不知为何变得更长”，强调原因不明，而不是“稍微更长”。 4. basic/ fundamental basic强调“基础的、初级的或最基本的”，侧重事物简单、不复杂，或者属于入门阶段。常用于表示初级知识、基本技能、基本设备或最低生活需要，如basic knowledge、basic skills、basic equipment、basic needs。 fundamental强调“根本的、起决定作用的”，指某事物是其他部分得以存在或发展的根基。它比basic语气更强、更正式，常用于抽象、重要或结构性问题，如fundamental principle、fundamental difference、fundamental change。还常用于结构be fundamental to...，表示“对……至关重要”。 核心区别： basic关注“难度或层级”：是不是简单、初级、最低限度的？ fundamental关注“重要性或根源”：是不是不可缺少、决定整体结构的？ 易错点：表示“简单、初级、功能有限”时误用fundamental；表示“根本性、结构性、决定全局”时只用basic，导致语气过弱或与语境矛盾。 ✅ She bought a basic phone because she only needed calls and text messages. ❌ She bought a fundamental phone because she only needed calls and text messages. 错误理由：这里描述的是手机“功能简单、配置基础”，应该使用basic。Fundamental 表示“根本的、决定性的”，通常不能直接修饰普通产品来表示“基础款”，因此a fundamental phone搭配不自然。 ✅ The company needs fundamental changes because its entire business model no longer works. ⚠ The company needs basic changes because its entire business model no longer works. 错误理由：Basic changes通常容易被理解为“简单或初步的调整”，但后半句说明整个商业模式已经失效，需要的是深入、结构性的改变。因此应使用语气更强的fundamental changes。这个错误并非语法错误，而是词义强度与上下文不匹配。 二、短语搭配易错 1. as to关于；至于 as to是介词短语，表示“关于；至于”，意思与about相近。它后面通常接名词、代词或疑问词引导的从句。这里的to是介词，不能把as to当作不定式结构，直接在后面接动词原形。 易错点：把as to中的to误认为不定式符号，后面直接接动词原形。 例子：✅ We had a long discussion as to the best solution to this problem. ❌ We had a long discussion as to solve this difficult problem. 2. die from/ of死于…… die of + 疾病或身体内部原因，表示因疾病、衰老、饥饿或情绪等内在原因死亡；die from + 外部原因，表示因事故、受伤、污染或其他外在因素造成的死亡。 易错点：混淆die of和die from后面所接的死亡原因。 例子：✅ Many people died of the serious disease during that cold winter. ❌ Many people died from the serious disease during that cold winter. 3. recommend doing sth建议做某事 recommend + 动名词，表示“建议做某事”。recommend后面表示具体动作时，要接动词的-ing形式，不能直接接to do。 易错点：把recommend后面的动词误用成to do。 例子：✅ Teachers recommend taking short breaks after studying for forty-five minutes. ❌ Teachers recommend to take short breaks after studying for forty-five minutes. 4. limit ... to ...把……限制在……；局限于…… limit + 名词/代词 + to + 名词、数量或动名词，表示把某事物限制在特定的范围、数量或活动内。其中，to是介词；如果后面接动词，要使用动名词形式，不能接动词原形。 易错点：把to误认为不定式符号，后面的动词误用成原形。 例子：✅ The teacher limits our classroom discussion to using English only. ❌ The teacher limits our classroom discussion to use English only. 5. a key to ...……的关键 a key to + 名词/动名词，表示“……的一个关键因素”或“……的关键之一”。这里的to是介词，后面要接名词、代词或动名词，不能直接接动词原形。 易错点：把介词to误认为不定式符号，后面错误地使用动词原形。 例子：✅ Regular practice is a key to improving your English speaking skills. ❌ Regular practice is a key to improve your English speaking skills. 三、句型易错点 1. There is evidence that... 课文：However, there is increasing evidence that the real driver of poor health is not so much fatty food, as it is sugar. 易错点：that引导同位语从句，说明evidence的具体内容，不能改为which。 例子：✅ There is strong evidence that success depends not so much on talent as on steady practice. ❌ There is strong evidence which success depends not so much on talent than on steady practice. 2. 主语 + be + 倍数 + as likely to do + as + 比较对象 课文：And in America, people who receive 25% of their daily calories or more through sugar are twice as likely to die from heart disease than people who receive less than 10% a day. 易错点：在考试英语和规范写作中，倍数比较通常使用twice as likely ... as ...，不宜使用twice as likely ... than ...。 例子：✅ Employees who sleep well are twice as likely to solve difficult problems as those who stay awake late. ❌ Employees who sleep well are twice as likely to solve difficult problems than those who stay awake late. 3. If条件状语从句 课文：In other words, if you want to be healthy, you have to cut down on desserts, and cut out sweet drinks altogether. 易错点：表示一般条件时，if从句使用一般现在时，不随意添加will。 例子：✅ If you want to improve your writing, you have to read widely and practise composing paragraphs regularly. ❌ If you will want to improve your writing, you have to read widely and practising composing paragraphs regularly. 4. What主语从句 + is + that表语从句 课文：What this means is that people who chew too quickly end up eating too much food because they still feel hungry. 易错点：What引导主语从句，要使用陈述句语序。that引导表语从句，通常不能直接省略。 例子：✅ What the survey suggests is that customers who receive quick replies end up trusting the company more. ❌ What does the survey suggest is that customers who receive quick replies end up to trust the company more. 5. It is better to do A rather than (to) do B 课文：It is also better to eat a modest amount of food each time, rather than to eat a lot in one meal, and then a little in the next. 易错点：it是形式主语，真正的主语是不定式短语，因此应使用It is better to do。rather than连接的成分要保持平行；后一个to可以保留，也可以在不引起歧义时省略。 例子：✅ It is better to review vocabulary daily rather than to memorize hundreds of words before one exam. ❌ It is better to review vocabulary daily rather than memorizing hundreds of words before one exam. 一、描述食物与饮食的常用表达 traditional food 传统食物 local cuisine 当地菜肴 regional specialties 地方特色美食 home-cooked meals 家常饭菜 street food 街头小吃 staple food 主食 eating habits 饮食习惯 food culture 饮食文化 dining traditions 用餐传统 cooking methods 烹饪方法 fresh ingredients 新鲜食材 seasonal ingredients 时令食材 a balanced diet 均衡饮食 a wide variety of dishes 各式各样的菜肴 a rich and unique flavor 浓郁而独特的味道 be famous for… 因……而闻名 be made from… 由……制成 be served with… 与……一起食用 be passed down from generation to generation 代代相传 reflect local customs and traditions 反映当地的风俗与传统 二、描述食物味道与口感 描述味道 taste delicious 味道鲜美 have a sweet taste 味道甜美 have a salty flavor 带有咸味 taste sour 尝起来酸 taste bitter 尝起来苦 be hot and spicy 香辣刺激 be rich in flavor 味道浓郁 have a mild flavor 味道清淡 have a unique taste 味道独特 leave a pleasant aftertaste 留下令人愉快的余味 satisfy one’s appetite 满足某人的食欲 make one’s mouth water 令人垂涎欲滴 描述口感 soft and tender 柔软鲜嫩 crisp and fresh 清脆新鲜 crispy on the outside 外皮酥脆 juicy on the inside 内里多汁 smooth and creamy 细腻顺滑 light and refreshing 清淡爽口 chewy and flavorful 有嚼劲且味道丰富 melt in one’s mouth 入口即化 have a pleasant texture 口感宜人 三、描述食物制作过程 prepare the ingredients 准备食材 wash and cut the vegetables 清洗并切蔬菜 cut … into small pieces 把……切成小块 mix the ingredients together 把食材混合在一起 add some salt and spices 加入一些盐和香料 heat the oil 把油烧热 fry the food 煎炸食物 boil the water 把水烧开 steam the dish 蒸这道菜 bake it in the oven 在烤箱里烘烤 cook over a low heat 用小火烹饪 stir the mixture gently 轻轻搅拌混合物 pour … into … 把……倒入…… wrap the filling in the dough 用面皮包住馅料 serve the dish while it is hot 趁热上菜 follow a traditional recipe 遵循传统食谱 四、描述食物与文化的关系 be an important part of culture 是文化的重要组成部分 represent local culture 代表当地文化 reflect a region’s history 反映一个地区的历史 show the wisdom of local people 展现当地人民的智慧 carry cultural meaning 承载文化意义 have a long history 有悠久的历史 have deep cultural roots 有深厚的文化根源 symbolize happiness and good luck 象征幸福和好运 stand for family unity 代表家庭团聚 express people’s good wishes 表达人们的美好祝愿 strengthen family ties 加强家庭纽带 bring people closer together 拉近人与人之间的距离 preserve cultural traditions 保护文化传统 pass on cultural heritage 传承文化遗产 develop a sense of cultural identity 培养文化认同感 offer a window into another culture 提供了解另一种文化的窗口 help people understand different cultures 帮助人们了解不同文化 五、描述餐桌礼仪 behave politely at the table 在餐桌上举止得体 follow table manners 遵守餐桌礼仪 wait until everyone is seated 等所有人就座 show respect for older people 尊重长者 offer food to guests 为客人夹菜或提供食物 avoid making too much noise 避免发出太大声音 avoid talking with one’s mouth full 避免嘴里有食物时讲话 use the correct eating tools 正确使用餐具 express thanks to the host 向主人表达感谢 try a small amount first 先品尝少量食物 politely refuse something 礼貌地拒绝某物 learn about local dining customs 了解当地用餐习俗 六、高分句型积累 1. 强调食物的文化意义 Food is not only a basic need but also an important part of cultural identity. 食物不仅是基本需求，也是文化认同的重要组成部分。 What people eat often reflects their history, environment and way of life. 人们吃什么往往反映了他们的历史、环境和生活方式。 Behind every traditional dish lies a story about a place and its people. 每一道传统菜肴背后，都有一个关于某个地方及其人民的故事。 The importance of traditional food lies not only in its taste but also in the cultural values it carries. 传统食物的重要性不仅在于味道，还在于它所承载的文化价值。 2. 强调食物与情感 Nothing brings family members closer together than sharing a warm meal. 没有什么比共同享用一顿温暖的饭菜更能拉近家人之间的距离。 It is the familiar taste of home-cooked food that gives people comfort and a sense of belonging. 正是家常饭熟悉的味道，给人们带来安慰和归属感。 More than a simple dish, it represents my family’s love and shared memories. 它不仅仅是一道普通的菜，更代表着家人的爱和共同的回忆。 3. 表达文化交流 Trying local food is one of the best ways to understand a different culture. 品尝当地食物是了解不同文化的最佳方式之一。 Through food, people from different cultural backgrounds can communicate and connect with one another. 通过食物，不同文化背景的人可以彼此交流、建立联系。 Although food traditions differ, people everywhere share the joy of eating with family and friends. 尽管饮食传统各不相同，但世界各地的人们都共享与亲友一起用餐的快乐。 4. 表达保护传统文化 It is our responsibility to preserve traditional recipes and pass them on to future generations. 保护传统食谱并将其传给后代是我们的责任。 Only by protecting traditional food culture can we maintain our cultural identity. 只有保护传统饮食文化，我们才能保持自己的文化认同。 Traditional food should be preserved while being adapted to modern lifestyles. 传统食物应当在适应现代生活方式的同时得到保护。 $
