首字母填空
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了中国食物在世界受欢迎的原因以及一些食物的传统意义。
1. like 根据“just ... music, dance and painting”及首字母可知，此处表示烹饪是一门艺术，就像音乐、舞蹈和绘画一样，like“像”，介词。故填 like。
2. Different 根据“But there is more than just one kind of Chinese food ... places in China have special ways of cooking.”可知，中国食物有很多种，烹饪方式也各不相同，different“不同的”，形容词作定语，句首首字母大写。故填 Different。
3. healthy 维持阴阳平衡是为了保持健康，固定短语 keep healthy“保持健康”，healthy“健康的”，形容词作表语。故填 healthy。
4. or weak 和 tired 为选择关系，or“或者”，连词。故填 or。
5. only 根据“we need a balance between yin and yang”可知，“仅仅”吃美味的食物是不好的，only“只；仅仅”，副词修饰动词。故填 only。
6. dishes 根据“Another traditional food, yuanxiao”和“people often eat fish”可知，下文介绍了不同菜肴的意义；dish“菜肴”，many 后接可数名词复数。故填 dishes。
7. tradition “eat long noodles on your birthday”是一种饮食传统，tradition“传统”，其前限定词为 one，所以此处填写单数形式。故填 tradition。
8. stay 元宵象征着团圆；stay together 意为“待在一起”，符合语境，且 will 后接动词原形。故填 stay。
9. sounds fish“鱼”的发音与“余”相同；sound“听起来”，本句主语是第三人称单数，时态是一般现在时，所以动词用第三人称单数形式。故填 sounds。
10. meaning “more than enough”为“余”的含义，the meaning of 表示“……的意思”，单数形式特指“余”的意思。故填 meaning。
