3.Although travelers can try dishes from around China and the globe in well-known food cities like Beijing and Shanghai,it is outside these major metropolises where a world of exciting Chinese cuisine(中国菜) awaits the true foodie(美食家).With this in mind and after three years of living in China and writing about Chinese food,I started a six-month journey with my husband and two daughters.
Here are four of the eight most amazing Chinese food cities I've come across so far.The list is in no particular order.
1.Chengdu,Sichuan Province
Crowned as Asia's first UNESCO City of Gastronomy(美食学) in 2010,Chengdu is best-known for its fiery hot pot and spicy dishes,which are characterized by the use of Sichuan pepper and are usually layered with salty,sour and sweet flavors.There are also dishes that aren't spicy at all,such as beer-braised duck.
Hot pot is as ubiquitous in the city as the smell of chili.At Zigong Delicious Hotpot,the house specialty(招牌菜) tiaoshui wa is a cauldron(大锅) of fiery chili(辣椒) to which vegetables,noodles or other meats can be added.
For a real taste of Sichuan's signature(招牌)pepper,hua jiao,spend a morning at the Chengdu Spice Market where the locals sell and buy it by the sack.
2.Lanzhou,Gansu Province
Synonymous in the minds of food-lovers with hand-pulled beef noodles,Lanzhou also has one of the liveliest street food night markets in China.
Just west of the city center,the buzzing Zhengning Road bazaar(集市)houses more than 100street food stalls.Available is a broad selection of hot and cold dishes with emphasis on local Hui cuisine.
No trip to Lanzhou is complete without feasting on noodles at Wumule Penhui,the 2012winners of Lanzhou's annual pulled noodle competition.The halal restaurant makes noodles spicy enough to satisfy even the most hardened heat-seekers.
3.Guangzhou,Guangdong Province
The birthplace of Cantonese food,Guangzhou is thought by many as the best place to eat in China.The city of 12million has a passionate food culture,with equal excitement reserved for the opening of a hole-in-the-wall congee joint(粥店)and a high-end restaurant.
The local cuisine is characterized by fresh clean flavors(口味),seafood,barbecued meats and the wonderful tradition of yum cha,which is tea drinking accompanied by dumplings and small dishes.
Congee is the way locals love to start their day,and one of the most popular vendors is Ru Xuan Sha Guo Zhou.Here,one can get a bowl of signature seafood congee any hour of the day.
Roast meats are Bing Sheng's most popular order-their roast goose is marinated(腌制)with five-spice,boiled,air-dried,then roasted by a flame oven to give a crisp skin.
For something more home style and removed from the madness of downtown,head to Ji Cun for steamed chicken and simple farmer-style dishes.
4.Shaoxing,Zhejiang Province
This ancient canal city is home to huangjiu,an amber-colored rice wine that's important in Chinese cooking.
Open since 1894,the dining chain is known by almost every Chinese for its appearance in early 20th century novels by Chinese literati Lu Xun.
Xianheng's delicacies(佳肴)include crispy-skinned chicken,smoked red dates in rice wine,beans flavored with fennel(茴香),and crispy bream in rice wine.
Fried fermented(发酵的)tofu is also a local specialty,which is available all over town at small street stalls including one just outside Xianheng.

A.express her preference for fiery hot pot
B.tell readers how to comment on amazing Chinese food cities

D.share her story and impression on Chinese cuisines and spicy dishes in Chengdu.

A.charming and attractive               B.common and popular
C.smelly and disgusting                 D.fiery and spicy
23.If a fresh clean flavor is to a foodie's taste,which couple of cities is he likely to make a trip to?C
A.Chengdu,Lanzhou                      B.Lanzhou,Guangzhou
C.Guangzhou,Shaoxing                   D.Shaoxing,Chengdu.

18.I was born and raised in Minnesota,the USA,but as an adult I have mostly lived in Europe and Africa.I teach cross-cultural management at the International Business School near Paris.For the last 15years,I've studied how people in different parts of the world build trust,communicate,and make decisions especially in the workplace.
While traveling in Tokyo recently with Japanese colleague,I gave a short talk to a group of 20managers.At the end,I asked whether there were any questions or comments.No hands went up,so I went to sit down.My colleague whispered to me,"I think there actually were some comments,Erin.Do you mind if I try?"I agreed,but I guessed it a waste of breath.He asked the group again,"Any comments or questions?"
Still,no one raised a hand,but this time he looked very carefully at each person in the silent audience.Gesturing to one of them,he said,"Do you have something to add?"To my amazement,she responded"Yes,thank you."and asked me a very interesting question.My colleague repeated this several times,looking directly at the audience and asking for more questions or comments.
After the session,I asked my colleague,"how do you know that those people had questions?"He hesitated,not sure how to explain it,and then said,"It has to do with how bright their eyes are."
He continued,"In Japan,we don't make as much direct eye contact as you do in the West.So when you asked if there were any comments,most people were not looking directly at you.But a few people in the group were looking right at you,and their eyes were bright.That indicates that they would be happy to have you call on them."
I thought to myself I would never have learned from my upbringing in Minnesota.Sinc then,I try to focus on understanding behavior in other cultures I encounter,and keep finding the bright eyes in the room.

15.Andrew Carnegie was a 19th century steel tycoon (大亨) who became one of the 20th century's most famous philanthropists (慈善家).His life story is one of the most famous rags-to-riches accounts in United States'history.
Carnegie was born in Dunfermline,Scotland,on November 25,1835.The son of a weaver,he came with his family to the United States in 1848 and settled in Allegheny,Pennsylvania.At age thirteen,Carnegie went to work as a bobbin (线轴) boy in a cotton factory.He then moved rapidly through a succession of jobs with Western Union and the Pennsylvania Railroad.In 1865,he resigned to establish his own factory and eventually organized the Carnegie Steel Company,which started the steel industry in Pittsburgh.At age sixty-five,he sold the company to J.P.Morgan for﹩480 million and devoted the rest of his life to his philanthropic activities and writing,including his autobiography.
Many people of wealth have contributed to charity,but Carnegie was perhaps the first to state publicly that the rich have a moral responsibility to give away their fortunes.In 1889 he wrote The Gospel (福音) of Wealth,in which he asserted that all personal wealth beyond what was required to supply the needs of one's family should be regarded as a trust fund to be administered for the benefit of the community.
Carnegie set about giving away his fortune through innumerable personal gifts and through the establishment of various trusts.In his thirties,Carnegie had already begun to give away some of his fast-accumulating funds.His first large gifts were made to his native town.Later he created seven philanthropic and educational organizations in the United States,including Carnegie Corporation of New York,and several more in Europe.
One of Carnegie's lifelong interests was the establishment of free public libraries to make available to everyone as a means of self-education.There were only a few public libraries in the world,in 1881,when Carnegie began to promote his idea.He and the Corporation altogether spent over﹩56 million to build 2,509 libraries throughout the English-speaking world.
After this program was ended in 1917,the Corporation continued for about forty years an interest in the improvement of library services.Other major programs in the Corporation's early history included adult education and education in the fine arts.
During his lifetime,Carnegie gave away over﹩350 million.He died in Lenox,Massachusetts,on August 11,1919.

A.his investment in weaving industry

c.He worked in a cotton mill.
