问答题练习3  The traditional Chinese hospitality requires food diversity, so that guests will be full before eating up all the dishes. A typical Chinese banquet menu includes cold dishes served at the beginning, followed by hot dishes, such as meat, poultry, vegetables, etc. At most banquets, the whole fish is considered to be essential, unless various Kinds of seafood have been served already. Today, Chinese people would like to combine Western specialties with traditional Chinese dishes. Therefore, it is not rare to see steak being served as well. Salad is gaining popularity, although traditionally the Chinese people generally do not eat any food without cooking. There is usually at least a bowl of soup, served at the beginning or in the end of the dinner party. Desserts and fruit usually mark the end of the feast.

AMy parents taught me not to waste food. My mom always found ways to make leftovers (剩余食物) taste good. I went to Ilan to learn about some of their special foods. As I was there, I learned about the food and the history of the area. I learned that they don’t waste food, either, and they use leftovers!Many years ago, there was not enough food for everyone. People learned to cook and eat almost everything. They had to think of ways to make special dishes. One of these dishes is kao zha. It’s made with leftovers like meat, soup, oil and fat. That might not sound very good, but it does taste good. Today, kao zha is a special dish at big banquets (宴会).Another famous dish is called zao bing. It’s made with fruit, meat and other things. I really liked it! But I didn’t want to eat too much. It has a lot of fat in it.I smelled something burning and I saw smoke, so I found another special food of the Ilan area─duck meat. The duck meat is put in a big oven (炉子) to cook it. Smoke keeps the meat fresh. I don’t usually eat meat, but this duck meat was delicious! It tasted sweet.Ilan is a great place with delicious food. I hope I can come back again!56. The writer learns from her parents __________.A. not to eat leftovers B. to eat good foodC. not to waste food D. to make good food

Globalization places us in increasingly more situations where we may need to host international business associates for meals.With so many cultural differences in dining preferences,even among those ofthe same nationality and culture,the safest and most considerate thing we can do when treating a guest is to simply ask.Avoid making too many assumptions about what your guests would like and inquire about their preferences.China's dish names are infused with its culinary culture,and expressing them in English is not always so easy.Zhao Huimin,director of Beijing Foreign Affairs Office,said,"As Beijing is striving to become a'World City',we need a better language environment.And Chinese food has become more popular around the world in recent years,so it's essential to standardize the translation.The newly published book contains easy-to-understand English names of almost all mainstream dishes of China's eight major cuisines.It is for reference only,and is not compulsory."
