What do you think the title means
Learning to think for question 1
A title often shows the main idea of the passage. Pay attention to the words in a title. Some words may have more than one meaning.
Think and share
“Hot” means the spicy and hot taste of the Sichuan hot pot. It also means the exciting and passionate experience of trying new and spicy local food.
“Cool” describes the visit to the Sanxingdui Museum. Because the author saw many cool and amazing things in the museum.
1 At last, I arrived in Chengdu. My friend Haoyu
took me to a restaurant right from the airport. I
just couldn’t wait to try Sichuan hot pot!
n. 机场，航空站（港）
Let’s learn
I just couldn’t wait to try Sichuan hot pot!
我迫不及待地想要试一试四川火锅！
can’t wait to do表示“迫不及待地想要做”。
例如：She can’t wait to start her new job.
她迫不及待地想要开始新的工作。
2 But the first taste made my mouth burn! The
food was much hotter than I expected. I took
a deep breath and drank a whole glass of iced
lemon tea.
3 “Do you want something less hot ” Haoyu said.
v. （ 使）（身体部位）灼痛，（使）火辣辣地痛
v. 预料，预期，预计
adj.（ 呼吸或叹息）深深的
n. 柠檬
4 “No,” I replied. “When in China, do as the
Chinese do!” I carefully took a small mouthful.
Surprisingly, I started to enjoy the taste. And
cooking hot pot was just as fun as eating it!
v. 回答，答复
n.（ 食物或饮料的）一口，一满口
adv. 惊人地，使人吃惊地，出人意料地
“When in China, do as the Chinese do!”
在中国，就入乡随俗吧！
本句改编自谚语When in Rome, do as the Romans do，意为“入乡随俗”。例如：
—Are you sure we should eat this with our hands
你确定我们要用手拿着吃吗？
—Why not When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
当然，入乡随俗嘛。
Surprisingly, I started to enjoy the taste. And
cooking hot pot was just as fun as eating it!
令人意外的是，我开始喜欢这个味道了。而
且，我发现煮火锅和吃火锅一样有趣！
surprisingly 意为“惊人地，使人吃惊地，出人意料地”，常出现在句首，用于表达一种令人意外的感觉。例如：
Surprisingly, he got a very good job.
令人惊讶的是，他找到了一份很好的工作。
5 After lunch, things went from really hot to
totally cool – we went to the new Sanxingdui
Museum! The masks were fantastic. “Why are
their eyes and ears much bigger than normal
ones Were ancient Shu people able to see
and hear further than us ” I wondered. I
wanted to stay in the museum for a week!
n. 假面具，假面
adj. 正常的
adj. 古代的
After lunch, things went from really hot to totally
cool – we went to the new Sanxingdui Museum!
午饭后，我们从热辣的火锅店到了一个完全不同的凉爽且很酷的地方—我们去参观了三星堆博物馆新馆！
这个句子中，hot和cool两个词都使用了双关的修辞手法。hot既体现了火锅店的热闹场景，又体现了火锅的辣。cool既体现了三星堆博物馆新馆的凉爽，也体现了展览内容令人印象深刻。
6 My first day in China was full of fun: I
tried new food and went to an exciting
place. I’m really looking forward to the
rest of my trip around China!
