精品文档 Information Related to the Reading Passage

Likes or dislikes with regard to food vary greatly from culture to culture. What is

disgusting to one person can be a delicacy to another. Sometimes we need to change

our eating habits. If we move or travel to a new place with a different culture, our

favorite meat, fruit and vegetables may not be available to us. As a result, we have to

eat what is different from the food we are used to. Slowly, this strange food may

become familiar to us. Our tastes may change, too, and we begin to enjoy eating the

food that used to seem unusual to us.

Best Places to Eat in Beijing and Shanghai

This will be our first time in Beijing and Shanghai. One of the best things about

traveling is all the different foods you get to try. There is Chinese food in the US, but

it’s not nearly as good as the food in China! Plus there are lots of things you can’t get

in the US.

Now we are wondering about what people who actually live in Shanghai and

Beijing think are the best places to eat?

If you can leave a message below that would be great.

You’ve got to have Beijing Duck at Quan Ju De ( 全聚德 ). You’re not a

vegetarian right? LOL. Have a nice time in Beijing.

Must go places for eating: I guess the only thing I would recommend is the

Xiaolong Bao in Yu Garden ... uh ... it’s a little bit cliché ... but it is still the signature

dish of Shanghai ... apart from that, you can find every kind of dishes of regional

flavor there ... god bless. 精品文档

Hi! It was really nice meeting you today at the bar! Hope you enjoyed your

stay here in Shanghai so far ... and you can try Shanghainese cuisine some time ... or

maybe some snacks at the City God’s Temple (Chenghuang Miao in Chinese). They’re really one of a kind.

Funny, Isn’t It?

Tuesday morning, I over-slept, while all the bosses were coming.

Fortunately I was not coming late, just having no time to da bao my lunch.

Me: Qiu Jun, I did not “da bao” today. If you go out for lunch,

remember to bring me together.

Qiu Jun: Ok, A Weng. I’ll go out for lunch later on.

(Few minutes just before the lunch hour.)

Qiu Jun: A Weng, let’s go for lunch now.

Uncle Zhou: Today we bring A Weng to the sea.

Me: Sea? (Sure? Qiu Jun and me don’t know how to swim!)

Qiu Jun: Good idea.

Me: Oh ... (These 2 bosses must have something secret in their plan.)

Few minutes after sitting inside Qiu Jun’s car, huh, we are really reaching

the sea.

Oh, actually they target on the Sunrise Seafood Restaurant, which is just

located besides our company, but we need to turn a big round only to reach there. 精品文档

精品文档 Hmm, this restaurant is quite good, “floating” on top of the sea. An

unlimited sea-view.

Uncle Zhou treats us to lunch there. Wow, we finish almost all the ordered

food. I feel surprised that I do not recommend food over here. Hehe, I cannot

tell my mother, or else she will call me immediately with blar blar blar.

Mum, don’t worry, I did not eat any meat, see, my plate is empty.

1 Explanation of Difficult Sentences

1. (Blog 1 – Amy) Now we are wondering about what people who actually live in

Shanghai and Beijing think are the best places to eat?

Analysis: This is a complex sentence. In this sentence what people who actually live

in Shanghai and Beijing think are the best places to eat is an object clause of the

preposition about, and who are ctually live in Shanghai and Beijing is used as an

attributive clause modifying people.

Translation: 现在我们想知道，真正住在上海和北京的居民认为什么地方的东西最好吃。

Example: He was deeply displeased by what had occurred that day.

Your success will largely depend upon what you do and how you do it.

2. (Blog 1 – Dahai) It was really nice meeting you today at the bar!

Analysis: In this sentence, the pronoun is used to stand for the real sentence subject

meeting you today at the bar. Meeting can also take the infinitive form to meet , but

there is a little difference between the two forms. Using V-ing form as subject usually

means the action that has been done, while to-do form means that the action is gong to

be done.

Translation: 今天在酒吧里遇见你们真是太好了！

Example: It was nice meeting so many old friends at the party.

It is great to go to attend the international conference in Japan.
