《Food for thought》Section A PPT第一部分内容：晨读晚诵Foods and Their Symbolic Meaning美食在中华文化中扮演着重要角色,也有着象征意义。食物的象征意义可以来源于其外形或者名字发音。以下是一些中华文化中极具象征性的食物。1.EggsEggs hold a special symbolic significance in many cultures,and China is no exception.The Chinese believe eggs symbolize① fertility(丰产).After a baby is born,parents may hold a “red egg and ginger party,” where they pass out hard boiled eggs to announce② the birth.(In some regions of China the number of eggs presented depends on the sex of the child: an even number for a girl,and an odd number if a boy has been born).2.NoodlesNoodles are a symbol of longevity in Chinese culture.They are as much a part of a Chinese birthday celebration as a birthday cake with lit candles is in many countries.Since noodles do symbolize long life,it is considered③ very unlucky to cut up a strand.3.FishAlthough westerners sometimes balk at the sight of an entire fish lying on a plate,in China a fish served whole is a symbol of prosperity④.In fact,at a banquet it is customary to serve the whole fish last,pointing toward the guest of honour.Fish also has symbolic significance because the Chinese word for fish,yu,sounds like the word for riches or abundance⑤,and it is believed that eating fish will help your wishes come true in the year to come.4.ChickenIn Chinese culture,chicken forms part of the symbolism of the dragon and phoenix.At a Chinese wedding,chicken’s feet (sometimes referred to as phoenix feet) are often served with dragon foods such as lobster.Chicken is also popular at Chinese New Year,symbolizing a good marriage and the coming together of families (serving the bird whole emphasizes⑥ family unity).词海拾贝①symbolize vt.象征②announce vt.宣布③consider vt.认为④prosperity n.繁荣⑤abundance n.丰盛⑥emphasize vt.强调典句欣赏After a baby is born,parents may hold a “red egg and ginger party,” where they pass out hard boiled eggs to announce the birth.译文:婴儿出生后,父母可以举行“红鸡蛋和生姜宴”,在宴会上他们分发煮好的鸡蛋以宣布新生儿的出生。分析:本句是一个复合句。After a baby is born是时间状语从句,parents may hold...是主句,where they pass...是定语从句。理解诱思1.What do people believe eating fish will do?答案:It will help your wishes come true in the year to come.2.What kind of food do you like
