李子柒：隱居的美食達(dá)人和田園“公主”

Step 2 理解·文本解讀

Ⅰ. （1）the reclusive food celebrity ?（2）a food critic ? （3）quarantine ? （4）who is Li Ziqi; what does she do; why is Li the queen

Ⅱ. （1）Video description ?（2）Background information ?（3）Reasons ?（4）Conclusion

Ⅲ. 1. （1）food vlogger ?（2）a village in Sichuan Province ?（3）30 ?（4）looking not unlike a Disney princess in her crown braids， wearing a silvery fur cape， walking gracefully and slowly in the snow （5）leaving home as a teenager to find work， but returning to the countryside to take care of her grandmother， and then beginning documenting her life ?（6）an assistant and a videographer ?（7）The Life of Garlic

2. （1）Li grows garlic outside her home and cooks the young， fresh green garlic shoots with pork. ?（2）Li rides her horse through fields of wildflowers. ?（3）Li carries baskets of sweet potatoes under fruit trees. ?（4）Li gathers rose petals and ripe tomatoes.

3. （1）Ms Li doesnt explain anything as she goes. In fact， she tends to work in silence， without the use of any modern kitchen device. ?（2）Ms Li is almost always alone， and she seems tireless， focused， confident， independent. ?（3）Ms Li shows the intricacy and intensity of labor that goes into every single component of every single dish， which is different from modernday cooking.

4. Firstly， for a worldwide audience in isolation， her DIY pastoral fantasies have become a reliable source of escape and comfort. Secondly， the videos reveal the intricacy and intensity of labor that goes into every single component of every single dish， while also making the long hard processes of producing food seem meaningful and worthwhile. Finally， Ms Li also romanticizes the struggles of farm life.

Ⅳ. ?1. I wish I could be able to grow garlic and cook garlic shoots like Li Ziqi. This sentence shows the authors admiration for Li Ziqi.

2. Li Ziqis videos bring back to life an archaic way of making food that is on the verge of oblivion. Also， the videos present viewers with the ideal selfsufficient rural life.

Step 3 運(yùn)用·讀寫(xiě)整合

1. Firstly， most viewers found that the lifestyle depicted and the picturesque landscapes displayed in Lis videos help them find inner peace and give them a psychological break from their stressful and busy urban routine. Lis life is one that many dream of， but dont dare to give up their current life in exchange for. Secondly， most of Lis videos involve very little speaking at all without the language barrier. So the content in Lis videos can be enjoyed by many with different language backgrounds， political ideologies as well as hobbies and interest. Thirdly， her works speak a universal language of a positive and lifeloving attitude， her independent and selfimprovement struggle spirit as well as caring for the family. Fourthly， Li shows the world the wondrous cultural heritage of China.

2. Such kind of criticism reflects a lack of cultural confidence and tolerance among the critics. There shouldnt be “superior” or “inferior” forms of cultural output. Though Li may romanticize rural life， there is no denying that these videos are a beautiful testament to her ingenuity， artistry， talent and authentic vision. It does us no good to lose sight of the truth of the story， by going on some miserable hunt for its flaws.

3. Finding the right stories and universal themes transcending cultural barriers and national boundaries might be the first step of good storytelling. Also， modern technology should be fully employed. More importantly， transparency is necessary to prevent misperceptions about China and intended demonization（妖魔化） of China by the Western media.

Step 4 ? 提升·素養(yǎng)建構(gòu)

Ⅰ. The author uses contrast to show the appeal of Lis video. Contrast is a rhetorical（修辭的） device through which writers identify differences between two subjects， places， persons， things， or ideas. To put it simply， it is a type of opposition between two objects， used to emphasize their differences.

Ⅱ. Determined to spread traditional Chinese culture， Li Ziqi presents online her preindustrial lifestyle， which goes viral throughout the world. Therefore， she was awarded Person of the Year for her passion.

To the best of my belief， traditional Chinese culture is not only the essence of our ancestors wisdom， but the carrier of our philosophy. By preserving and promoting the culture， well show due respect for our ancestors. In addition， well also help foreigners have a better understanding of the culture， thus contributing to the construction of a community of shared future for mankind.

As a student， I will put the promotion of the culture high on my agenda. I will go all out to raise the awareness and the interest of the public. A good command of English is also a must as it is an effective way of communication. Only with public recognition and worldwide promotion can the culture be well preserved.

第四章 ?秘密花園

Activity A

Ⅰ. Chapter Four mainly talks about a magic encounter： how Mary managed to find the gateway to the secret garden under the guidance of the lucky robin. Upon entering the garden， discouraged by the upsetting scenes there， she was determined to bring the garden back to life. So she asked Martha for some gardening tools.

Ⅱ. （1）secret garden ?（2）persistent ?（3）robin ?（4）green shoots ?（5）empathetic ?（6）overgrown ? ?（7）upset ?（8）tended ?（9）affectionate ? （10）gardening tools

Ⅲ. 1. First of all， The Secret Garden is a book intended mainly for children， so its more appropriate to maintain the little readers interest by what is magic and wonderful， instead of logic and reason， for the children. Marys discovery of the secret garden with the help of a robin makes sense and sounds very likely. Secondly， a pure “magic or coincidence” stresses the great appeal of the secret garden to Mary.

2. Surrounded by the overgrown vegetation， she felt as if wrapped in a warm blanket， undisturbed by the noise and scoldings. She enjoyed the company of the robin and the cultivation of the overgrown vegetation， which wiped out her loneliness， anger and insecurity. She took comfort in her interaction with nature.

Activity B

Ⅱ. The rhetoric device of contrast is mainly used to describe the deserted garden and overgrown vegetation. “It must have been a beautiful place once but now everything was overgrown.” In this sentence， the overgrown vegetation contrasts sharply with the imagined secret garden. “She was amazed to find tiny green shoots beneath the dead vegetation.” In this sentence， green shoots contrast sharply with the dead vegetation. These two examples of contrast show clearly how Marys feelings change： full of curiosity and expectation at first， upset and discouraged by the desolate scenery afterwards， and excited at the sight of green shoots eventually.

Ⅲ.

My dear Dickon，

This comes hoping to find you enjoy good health as we recently parted. Miss Mary has confided to me her wish to cultivate a small patch of ground. Will you go to Thwaite and buy her some flower seeds and a set of gardening tools to make a flowerbed？ Do remember： pick the prettiest and the easiest to grow， for Miss Marys still a green hand at gardening， and the climate here is quite different from that in India. Miss Mary is rich， so theres no need of concern for money. Give my love to mother and every one of you.

Your loving sister，

Martha

Just before I left the room， I turned around and said something that I had meant to say. “I really enjoyed this class. And I really appreciate your help this year，” I said to him. I did not think much about it when I did this. What I did right then was just my genuine thanks to him. I was just being honest with him， but the look on his face was remarkable. It seemed that what I said to him lastly meant a lot more to him than I thought it would.

He seemed really touched and appreciated my simple comment. His face lit up immediately. I could even see that his hand was shaking as he collected the papers. “I am really happy that you can see that， Jenny. I enjoy working here with you kind children. This has made my life full and valuable.” He even said more words than me！ Just knowing that one of his students had truly enjoyed his class can make a teacher so excited！ A simple， yet very meaningful act of kindness can brighten a teachers day. This was just beyond my expectation and in turn brightened my day.

Healing the earth

Nowadays， humans are accelerating extinction and altering the natural world at an unprecedented pace， which has posed a huge threat to mans survival. Earths natural landscapes are withering and becoming less biologically rich. Biodiversity loss is projected to accelerate through 2050， especially in the tropics if countries fail to step up their conservation efforts.

Therere several reasons which account for this phenomenon. On the one hand， global warming has been contributing to the shift or shrinkage of the local climates where many species evolved to survive. On the other hand， the lack of the awareness of maintaining the biodiversity has long been around. Mans endless demands have destroyed nature when the population keeps growing.

The earth needs healing. Firstly， man should take stricter measures to control the birth rate. Secondly， it is vital that all countries make more efforts to conserve the biodiversity. Finally， it is also necessary that everyone raise the awareness of maintaining the biodiversity. Only by joint efforts， can human truly maintain the balance of nature and obtain sustainable development.

Good morning. Boys and girls！Today Im honored to make a speech on my favorite singer. My favorite singer is Liu Sijian， who took part in Im CZR as the youngest contestant in 2020 at 20. Coming from Chengdu， Sichuan Province， Liu Sijian is fascinated by new hiphop and new R&B. He graduated from Dublin Coffman High School in the United States in 2018.

Liu Sijian is a gifted indie singer and a representative singersongwriter from the Generation Z. He wrote his first song， Merry Xmas/Marry Me in 2017. In 2018， he returned to China and started a gap year to test the waters in the Chinese music market. In the following year， he held gigs in live music venues and toured six cities. Amazingly， he had even released 37 original singles before taking part in Im CZR.

Liu Sijian features a unique music style. He is skilled at combining Chinese and English lyrics in a natural way. He always injects his attitude or views on certain issues into his lyrics， making his music so impressively touching.

Courageous， creative， determined and confident， Liu Sijian is really a superstar. I love him.

Thank you. Thats all.

Food and health

Food is closely connected to our health. However， not everyone is aware of the importance of a healthy diet. Many people are suffering from illnesses due to unhealthy diets.

Its time that we attached importance to a balanced diet. The best choices are food which contains protein and vitamins. More importantly， we should say no to junk food， which does great harm to our health. In the meanwhile， wed better have meals regularly. Also， dont be particular about food so that you can absorb enough nutrition.

Personally， developing a good diet habit is vital to keep healthy. Only in this way can we keep fit and have enough energy to devote ourselves to study.
