3、说明文。背景导学Sometimes we are curious to know what type of food is healthy and what kind of food may hurt our health.As a result of years of research, we know that too much fat is bad for our health. For example, Americans eat a lot of meat and only a small number of grains, fruits, and vegetables. Becau
4、se of this, they often get cancer and heart disease. In Japan, on the other hand, people eat lots of grains and very little meat. They also have a very low rate （比率） of cancer and heart disease. In fact, the Japanese live longer than people in any other country. Unfortunately, when Japanese people m
5、ove to the United States, the rate of heart disease and cancer increases as their diet changes. Whats more, as hamburgers and other high-fat foods become common in Japan, the rate of heart disease and cancer is increasing there as well. People are also eating more meat and dairy products in other co
6、untries such as Cuba and Hungary. Its no surprise that the disease rate in these countries is increasing along with the change in diet.Therefore, doctors everywhere advise people to eat more grains, fruits, and vegetables, and eat less meat and dairy products. 1. Why do Americans often get cancer an
7、d heart disease? Because Americans eat a lot of meat and only a small number of grains, fruits, and vegetables. 2. What should we eat? We should eat more grains, fruits, and vegetables, and eat less meat and dairy products. 3. Whats the main idea of the passage? It is mainly about healthy eating. Se
8、ction Reading and Thinking自主学习激发潜能.课文翻译教材原文CULTURE AND CUISINEThe 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, Bri
9、llat-Savarin was actually referring to our personality, character, and culture. 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 America
10、n tastes. For example, Americas most popular Chinese dish is General Tsos 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, so it cannot tell us much about the Chinese. On the other hand, it d
11、oes 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. Later, I had a chance to experience authentic Chinese food by coming to China. When my f
12、amily 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 wi
13、th 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.We soon moved to Shandong Province in the eastern part of North China. M

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-join

Some of our friends were Kazak and Inner Mongolian. These groups traditionally wandered the open range on horses. As a result, their tra
16、ditional foods are what you can cook over an open fire-usually boiled or roasted meat, such as lamb kebab.Our travels then took us to South China, and then on to central China.

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 tell us what they grow in their regio
18、n, 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 i
19、n hand, and if you do not experience one, you can never really know the other.教材译文文化与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，我就可以说出你是个什么样的人。”简单地说，这句话就是“人如其食”的意思。如今，大多数人把这条谚语与健康饮食联系起来。然而，布里亚-萨瓦兰实际上指的是我们的个性、品格及文化。当然，从很多方面来看，此话不假。中国菜就是个很好的例子。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，美国最受欢迎的中国菜是“左宗棠鸡”，它在油炸
20、的鸡肉上淋上甜酱，再佐以煸炒过的红辣椒制成。然而, 这或许并不是地道的中餐做法，因此并不能让我们对中国人了解多少。不过在另一方面，它确实让我们对美国人了解很多。例如，这道菜说明美国人喜爱浓烈、简单的口味。此外，由于这道菜也是最近才发明的，所以它告诉我们美国人不惧怕尝试新的食物。后来，我来到中国，有机会品尝地道的中国食物。我与家人刚刚抵达中国，便在北京找一个吃饭的好地方。一位朋友之前向我们推荐过一家川菜馆，最终我们找到了这家餐馆。我们疲惫不堪，饥肠辘辘，也不认识一个汉字，不知道该怎么点餐，所以厨师径自在我们的桌子上摆满食物；那是我们吃过的最可口的佳肴。于是，我们高高兴兴地体验了一种全新的口味：四
21、川花椒。食物妙不可言、与众不同，但更为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。在那里我最喜爱的食物是蘸着醋吃的水饺。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，我们又到了新疆北部。我们的一些朋友是哈萨克族人和内蒙古人。传统上，他们骑着马在广阔的草原上漫步。因此, 他们的传统食物在篝火上烹制而成，通常是水煮肉或烤肉，例如羊肉串。接着，我们前往华南，之后又去了华中。我们每到一处，都会品尝当地美食, 有广东的精致点心那是放在竹蒸笼里蒸出来的
22、小份食品，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。当地人吃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喜好。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。.词汇拓展 consist knsstvi.组成；构成 consistent knsstnt adj.一致的；连续的 elegant elntadj.精美的；讲究
