Unit Three1、Background Introduction中国人是很重视“吃”的，“民以食为天”这句谚语就说明我们把吃看得与天一样重要。

在中国的烹调术中，对美味追求几科达到极致，以至中国人到海外谋生，都以开餐馆为止，成了我们在全世界安身立命的根本！民间有句俗语：“民以食为天，食以味为先”。

就是这种对美味的追求，倒使我们忽略了吃饭的真正意义。

中国饮食之所以有其独特的魅力，关键就在于它的味。

中国烹饪讲究的调和之美，是中国烹饪艺术的精要之处。

重菜肴的味而不过分展露菜肴的形和色，这正是中国美性饮食观的最重要的表现。

西方人认为菜肴是充饥的，所以专吃大块肉、整块鸡等“硬菜”。

中国人吃的菜蔬有600多种，比西方多六倍。

中国人的以植物为主菜，与佛教徒的鼓吹有着千缕万丝的联系。

西方人在介绍自己国家的饮食特点时，觉得比中国更重视营养的合理搭配，有较为发达的食品工业，如罐头、快餐等，虽口味千篇一律，但节省时间，且营养良好，故他们国家的人身体普遍比中国人健壮；高个、长腿、宽大的肩、发达的肌肉；而中国人则显得材瘦小、肩窄腿短、色黄质弱。

由此可见中西方饮食各有其利弊。

但到底哪种饮食方式更适合人娄身体健康发展呢？2、Analyzation of the TextParagraphs 1-4作者引用了一段话来开篇，随后对中国人及西方人对待食物的态度进行了比较。

Paragraphs 5-6 作者用两段内容介绍了中国食物已经成为一种国际化的食物。

Paragraph 7-9 作者讨论了中国食物的本性。

3、Word Study文中出现的重难点单词及短语：attend to , ecstasy, lavish, sensual, contrive, enterprise1.attend to tl deal with, take care of, look after 专心，注意，照顾<释例>Mary attended to the children’s stories patiently. 玛莉很耐心地倾听孩子们的故事。

咱们没有"享受幸福的权利".路易斯"毕竟，" 克莱尔说，"他们拥有享受幸福的权利" 。

咱们那时是在讨论邻里发生的一件事。

甲先生抛弃甲太太，离了婚，准备迎娶乙太太，而乙太太也一样办好了离婚手续准备嫁给甲。

毫无疑问，甲先生和乙太太超级欢喜对方。

若是他们继续相爱，且健康和收入不出什么差池，他们接下来的日子应该会过的很高兴。

一样显而易见的是，他们与各自的前任相处不佳。

乙太太最初仍是喜欢她的丈夫的。

可是后来他在战争中负伤，丢掉了工作，听说还已经失去了性能力。

尔后的生活已经再也不是乙夫人当初所期待的。

甲夫人也很凄惨。

她面貌再也不，也没有了生机活力。

有人说她因为为他生儿育女，又为护理他度过漫长的疾病期而将自己的精力消耗殆尽，而先前的婚姻生活也因着疾病而黯然失色。

可是不要以为甲是那种将糟糠之妻弃之如敝履的一类人。

咱们都知道前妻的自杀让他超级震惊，他曾亲口对咱们说，“我又能怎么样呢？每一个人都有享受幸福的权利。

我不能错过我的幸福机缘。

”以后我就一直琢磨"享受幸福的权利"这句话。

起初这句话给我的感觉怪怪的，听起来就像是在说每一个人都有走运的权利。

无论会有哪个派别的道德学家如何评论，咱们的幸福或痛苦很大程度上都非人力所能控制。

在我眼里，所谓享受幸福的权利并无依据，正如不能要求自己的身高要达到六英尺，应该有个百万富翁的老爸，或说无论何时自己想去野餐了，天气就必需晴朗。

权利作为所在的社会的法律所保障的自由是不难理解的。

因此，我有权沿公共道路行驶，因为这是社会给给予我的自由，也是“公共”道路意义之所在。

我也能理解法律所保障的债权权益，和与之相应的他人的债务承担义务。

若是我有权从你那里获取100英镑，也就等于说你有责任付我100英镑。

若是法律允许甲先生抛弃发妻而去勾引邻人之妻，那么甲就有这项法律权利，咱们也没有必要在此谈论所谓“幸福”的权利。

可是克莱尔意非如此。

Text 1: Breaking Stereotypes。

Stereotypes often lead to discrimination and can have a negative impact on individuals and society as a whole. As we study this topic, we will learn about the harmful effects of stereotypes and how we can challenge and break them.Text 2: Gender Equality。
