Unit 9 Chinese FoodText comprehensionI. BII. TTTFTIII. omittedIV.1. Food to us Chinese is one of the greatest joys in life: it is thought about before being prepared; it is treated with lots of love and care while being prepared; and when it is ready, a great deal of time is devoted to enjoying it.2. The main reason for the sudden and tremendous popularity of chinese food throughout the whole Western world lies in two facts: One is the increased desire for sensual pleasures (which is abundant in Chinese food) and freedom from age-old customs in the West; the other is the notion of physical pleasure provided by Chinese food, which is always ready to satisfy the taste of the eater.VocabularyI.1 emotional strength to do what one believes to be right.2 material used to produce power; something used to keep the body functioning3 lower-class type4 a number of dishes that are served one after another in an orderly way5. by themselvesII.1 fastidious;2 ecstasies;3 lavish;4 elusive;5 phenomenal;6 proceeding;7 enterprise;8 contrivedIII.1 disregard;2 authoritative;3 ubiquity;4 desirable;5 piquancy;6 ceremonially7. gluttonous; 8 derivationIV.1 come off;2 conform to;3 derives/derived... from;4 attend to;5 sprung up;6 came about;7 proceed with;8 lavishing...onV.1. distantly (indifferently)2. epicure3. fundamental (primary, principal)4. produce (make)5. affirm (state)6. mix (intermingle, combine)7. change (modify, adjust)8. provocative (sharp, pungent)VI.1 explains;2 accidentally found;3 discuss with;4 start;5 played a prominent role in6 think about it carefully7 consumed part of;8 interruptingGrammarI.1 , a great Russian writer, was born in 1828 and died in 19102 that we should import more equipment from abroad is to be discussed at the meeting.3 that she is invited to the party is very encouraging.4 Dr. Norman Bethune, a great international fighter, laid down his life for the Chinese revolution.5 that they worked day and night on the project, they failed to find out the mechanism of the disease.6 that all flights were cancelled because of bad weather greatly distressed the waiting passengers.7. the best mechanic in the garage, worked on my car8. was constructing a simple model, a small outboard cruiser of conventional design II.1. Our word tobacco comes from the Spanish word tobaco, a word which means “cigar” in the Arawak Indian language.2. Columbus’s crew was astonished to find the Arawaks puffing on huge cigars in Hispaniola, an island which is now divided between Haiti and the Dominican Republic.3. The cigars were made from Nicotiana tobacum, a hybrid of two wild plants first grown in Peru and Bolivia.4. This tobacco from Hispaniola was not the kind smoked by the other Indians of North America, habitual users of tobacco, also.5. This second and much more widely used kind of tobacco was Nicotiana rustica, a hybrid that is native only to the western slopes of the Andes.6. From here its cultivation and use spread into North America at about the same time as the cultivation of maize, a staple grain crop.7. Archaeologists find the first pipes among Indian artifacts at the level that they find the first evidence of maize cultivation, a fact which suggests that the Indians learned to smoke and to grow corn at the same time.8. This tobacco was so strong that Algonkians mixed it with sumac leaves and the inner bark of the dogwood and called it kinnikinnik, a word meaning “that which is mixed.”9. Most Indians favored pipes, some ate tobacco leaves, some drank tobacco, and still others preferred cigarettes, shredded tobacco wrapped in corn husks.10. “Drinking tobacco” became pop ular in Elizabethan England after 1565, the year the leaf was first imported from the West Indies.III.CBDAB ACBIV.1.
