中国菜闻名全世界，中国人研究吃的艺术，已经有近三千年的历史。中国人的食物种类多得数不清，不论是天上飞的，地上跑的，水里游的，都被烧成了菜，端到饭桌上。烧菜是一种艺术：把菜烧熟，人人都能做到；把菜烧得味道鲜美，就不那么容易了。中国人自己的生活虽然清苦，但在招待客人的时候，总要把最好的食物拿出来，而且数量特别丰富，使客人感到宾至如归。中国人虽然讲究吃，但是他们非常看不起那种只追求衣食享受的人。这种观念是受了传统的儒家和道家思想的影响。Chinesefoodiswell-knownacrosstheworld.TheartofpreparingfoodinChinagoesbacknearly3,000years.TherearenumerousvarietiesoffoodforChinesepeople:thecreaturesflyingintheair,walkingonthegroundandswimminginthewatercanallbemadeintodishestobeservedondinnertables.Cookingcanbeconsideredanart,sinceitiseasyforeverybodytosimplycookdishesbuthardtomakethemtastyanddelicious.Howeverdifficulttheirlifeis,theyalwayspresenttheirbestfoodtoguestsinsuchabundancethattheguestswillfeelathome.Thoughfondofeating,Chinesepeopledespisethosewhoindulgethemselvesinphysicalpleasures.ThisideologyderivesfromtheinfluenceoftraditionalConfucianismandTaoism.1.剪纸最常用的颜色是红色，象征健康和兴旺。Thecolormostfrequentlyusedinpapercuttingisred,whichsymbolizeshealthandprosperity2.在京剧脸谱中，黑色代表刚直，白色代表背叛和狡诈。InthemasksoftheBeijingopera,theblackstandsforuprightness,whilethewhitesignalstreacheryordeception3.学汉语，学到的将不仅是汉语的抑扬顿挫，还有中国悠久的历史和丰富的传统。InyourstudyoftheChineselanguage,youwilllearnnotonlythetones,butalsoChinaslonghistoryandrichtraditions.1.古代中国人觉得月亮可爱又神秘，连苏东坡也不仅要问：“明月几时有？把酒问青天。”TheancientChinesefeltthemoonwaslovelyandyetmysterious.SuDongpo,agreatpoetoftheSongDynasty,wrotethefollowinglines:“Howlongwillthefullmoonappear?Winecupinhand,Iaskthebluesky.”2.中国功夫最伟大的地方在于和平。ThegreatestmeritofChinesekungfuisitspursuitofpeace.3.我国的端午节是纪念屈原的日子。那一天，人们通常要赛龙舟、吃粽子。theDragonBoatFestivalisadayestablishedinmemoryofthepoetQuYuanandpeopleusuallyholddragonboatracesandeatzongzi,orricedumplingonthatday.4.2000年以前，秦始皇修筑长城是防御性的。ThefirstemperoroftheQinDynastycommandedthebuildingoftheGreatWall2000yearsagoforthepurposeofdefense.春节是中国最盛大的传统节日，春节又叫“过年”。除夕这天，全家人围在一起，吃很丰盛的年夜饭，包饺子、放鞭炮、贴春联迎接新的一年的到来。过春节的这天早上，孩子们都要穿上新衣服，跟上大人们去拜年。这时，大人们往往都要发给孩子们一些“压岁钱”，祝福他们又长了一岁。如今，春节更是一个亲人团聚的日子，离家在外的孩子在过春节时都要回家。全家老小欢聚团圆，共享天伦之乐。SpringFestival,alsocalled“NewYear”,isthegreatesttraditionalfestivalinChina.Onthedaybeforethefestival,thewholefamilywillbereunitedtohaveasubstantialChineseNewYearsEvesupper,andtheymakedumplings,setofffirecrackersandpastespring-relatedcoupletsonthedoorstogreetthecomingofanewyear.OnthefirstmorningofSpringFestival,childrenfollowtheirparentstopayNewYearsvisitintheirnewapparel.Atthistime,theirelderswilloftengivethemsome“luckymoney”,blessingthemastheyareayearolder.Nowadays,SpringFestivalisanoccasionforfamilymemberstoreunite,whengrownchildrenfarawayfromhomereturnsothewholefamilycanenjoytheblissoffamilyreunion.1.
