Sichuan Dry-Fried Green Beans_ Chinese recipe

Dry-Fried Green Beans is Sichuan cuisine dish,it’s a popular Chinese food in Sichuan. Just like other Sichuan food, it tastes spicy.Today we share the Chinese recipe. Dried-fried green beans is one of my favorite side dishes to order in Chinese restaurants, especially

Sichuan restaurant. It is not easy to cook Sichuan Driy-Fried Green beans, it need some cooking skills. If you don’t have enough skills, just find the Chinese restaurants near me or you, enjoy the food.

Then you try to cook it by yourself. In contrast to crisp haricot verts or mushy microwaved diner-style beans, Sichuan-style green beans are blistered and well-cooked without being bland. With Sichuan peppercorns and dried chillis adding spice and smokiness to the flavor profile, this dish becomes positively addictive.

Some recipes I found also eschew the dried red chills and Sichuan peppercorn, but I find the extra spice adds a needed smoky

dimension to the final dish.

Remember to dry your green beans well before cooking. Nothing ruins an appetite like splotchy painful burn marks on your arms from splattering oil.

The 5 or 6 minutes of shallow-frying are important: they allow the green beans to develop not only the characteristic wrinkled and blistery surface, but also a deep, caramelized flavor.

This dry-frying technique lends itself to so many ways to cook green beans. I’m thinking porcini mushrooms and rosemary for an

Italian-style crispy green bean dish in the future.

Serves 4

Ingredients

3/4 pound green beans

1/4 cup peanut or vegetable oil

5 or 6 dried red chilies

1/4 teaspoon ground Sichuan pepper

1 tablespoon minced garlic

1 teaspoon minced or grated fresh ginger

3 scallions, white parts only, thinly sliced

4 ounces fresh shiitake or cremini mushrooms, finely chopped

Sauce:

(来自:WWw.SmhaiDa.com 海达范文网:green,beans)

1 1/2 teaspoons Chinese rice wine or dry sherry

1 1/2 teaspoons chili bean sauce

1/2 teaspoon sesame oil

1 teaspoon sugar

1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste

Instructions

Rinse the green beans and dry them thoroughly; even a small amount of water will cause oil in the wok to spit. Cut the beans into 2-inch lengths.

Prepare the sauce: In a small bowl, stir together the rice wine, chili bean sauce, sesame oil, sugar, and salt until the sugar is dissolved. Set aside.

Heat a wok or large skillet over high heat until a bead of water sizzles and evaporates on contact. Add the peanut oil and swirl to coat the bottom. Add the green beans and stir-fry, keeping the beans

constantly moving, for 5 to 6 minutes, or until the outsides begin to blister and the beans are wilted. Turn off the heat, remove the green beans, and set aside to drain on a plate lined with paper towels.

Remove all but 1 tablespoon of oil and reheat the wok. Add the chilies, Sichuan pepper, garlic, ginger, and scallions and stir-fry until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the mushrooms and stir-fry for another 1

minute, until the mushrooms have browned and started to crisp. Add the sauce. Return the green beans to the wok and stir-fry for another 1 minute. Transfer to a plate and serve hot.

篇二：at_the_farm说课稿

Unit4 At the farm 第一课时 A Let’s talk说课稿

毛城小学 姚 煜

各位老师：

下午好！首先感谢各位领导为我们提供了这次锻炼和学习的机会，我说课的内容是PEP小学英语四年级下册第四单元第一课时，本次说课内容是由“教材学情分析”、“教学目标教学重点难点的确立”、“教学方法的选择”、“教学过程的安排”四部分组成。

一、教材学情的分析：

本节课是单词教学，主要学习tomato, potato, green beans, carrot, horse, 五个新词。它是在学生初步学习了句型“How many……do you have?之后进行教学的。通过学习新词，感知句子What are these? These are….为下节课的教学打下基础。

二、教学目标、教学重难点的把握：

《英语课程标准》指出：激发和培养学生学习英语的兴趣，使学生树立自信心，养成良好的学习习惯和形成有效的学习策略，发展学生自主学习的能力和合作精神是小学英语教学的基本任务。在认真分析教材的基础上,我针对学生实际，将本课时的教学目标及重,难点确定如下:

（一）、说教学目标：

1、知识目标

（1）、使学生能听、说、认、读tomato, potato, green beans, carrot, horse等单词。

（2）、初步感知：“What are these? These are….”句子,学生能听懂并理解其意思.。

2、能力目标：

能区分农场的动物, 培养学生灵活运用所学知识进行交流的能力.

3、情感目标

（1）、培养学生注意观察、认真模仿的良好习惯和主动竞争的竟识。

（2）、激发学生学习英语的兴趣，使学生树立学习英语的自信心。

（3）、培养学生的合作交流能力。

（二）、 说教学重点 ：学习新词tomato, potato, green beans, carrot, horse 能正确认读.。

（三）说教学难点 ： 培养学生合作学习的能力.，同时注意培养学生学习英语的兴趣， 树立自信心。

三、教学方法和教学手段的运用

说教法：《英语课程标准》明确指出：“学生是英语学习的主人，教师是学生学习活动的组织者和引导者”因此，本课的学习，我准备当好学生学习的伙伴，充分发挥启发、引导、辅导，促进的作用，使每个学生在学习中都能有所收获，获得成功的体验。本课采用的教学方法是主要是以任务型教学模式为主，以活动，合作为主线，让学生在教师的指导下，通过感知、体验、实践、参与和合作、游戏感悟等多法并用的方式组织教学。彻底改变传统的“授—受”的教学模式，促

进语言实际运用能力的提高。

说学法指导

《英语课程标准》在前言部分积极倡导自主、合作、探究的学习方式。因此，在本节课我主要引导学生自主合作学习，在学习中培养学生的探究能力。根据小学生好奇、好胜、好动、模仿力强、表现欲旺盛等 生理和心理特点，我主要采取了以同桌合作互相帮助困难，互相评价，小组合作互相帮助等等。

四、教学过程的安排

（一）谈话导入，激发学生学习的兴趣

激发学生参与学习的兴趣，是新课导入的关键。精彩的课堂开头，往往给学生带来新意、亲切的感觉，不仅能使学生迅速地兴奋起来，而且还会使学生把学习当成一种自我需要，自然地进入学习新知的情景。

（二）自由会话，促进语言实际运用能力的提高

学生在一个平等尊重的氛围中，他们的思维是放松的，敢于说、敢于参与教学。教师要真心诚意地把学生当成学习的主人，努力提高“导”的艺术，从而在教学中恰到好处地去启发、点拔、尽可能地给学生多一点思考的时间，多一点活动的余地，多一点表现自己的机会，这样才能使课堂氛围充满活力。因此，我在这个环节与学生进行了朋友式的会话。It’s time for class. Are you ready ? Hello ! Boys and girls. How are you ? Nice to meet you. ? 不仅复习了旧知识，还渲

染了学习英语的良好气氛。

（三）呈现新知,合作互动。

在小学英语课堂中使学生保持一种积极的紧张感，能够激发他们学习的外部动机，引 发他们一系列的自主活动，促进外部动机向内部动机的转化。Today, we are going to learn“Unit 6. At a Farm.”. I’ll divide you into four groups . Which one is best, they’ll get the flag, OK? Now, Let’s start.于是我提出问题Do you like animals.引入学习主题，并通过音乐创设情景Let’s go to a farm. There are many animals自然引入新词的学习。在呈现新知时，我尤其注意了小学生形象思维优于抽象思维的特点，通过对比，听音，看动作等不同的方式引出新词，给学生以深刻的第一印象。游戏所带来的乐趣会使每一位参与者保持一种积极的心态。游戏是儿童学习的一种重要途径，也是激发学生学习兴趣的最佳方法。正如苏霍姆林斯基指出：“如果用思考、情感、创造、游戏的光芒来照亮儿童的学习，那么学习对于儿童来说是可以成为一件有趣的事情”。因此，在操练时，我首先进行了一些机械的练习，如：“Listen, point and repeat. ”听音、指词、跟读，“Look and Guess”看图形、猜单词。同时，我更注意抓住小学生好动的特点，辅以全身反应法，如模仿动物的叫声，或与之相关的动作（挤牛奶）等有趣的活动，充分激发学生学习的兴趣。同时在学习生词时感知句型，做到“词不离句，句不离词”，重视对学生思维，观察能力的培养，特别是对学生合作学习能力的培养，让学生们们在师生，生生，小组等不同的合作方式中，学会倾听，学会评价，为学生的终身

学习奠定基础。

（四）课堂总结，及时评价。

通过对知识的小结，帮助学生将本课的信息进行加工、储存，从而明确教学目标、重点和难点；对学生的表现进行总结评价，以评价促发展，培养小组团队精神，激励学生大胆开口，积极活动，为小组争得荣誉。最后做活动手册，是一个常规练习，其目的在于全方位地、及时检测学生对本课时掌握的程度。

（五）、教学总结

这节课不论是新知识的呈现，还是游戏的设计，都能紧紧地抓住学生，吸引学生，让学生积极参与到课堂中来。学生在玩中学，学中用，提高了课堂实效，培养了学生学习的兴趣。我相信通过这样的教学，充分让学生主体参与、体验感悟、游戏巩固，是一定能圆满实现课堂教学任务的。

What is so amazing about giving blood?

The National Blood Service, which covers all of England and North Wales, needs nearly two and a half million blood donations each year. When you give blood, you’ll be doing one of the most amazing things anybody could dream of — saving a life.

___________________________

All types of blood are needed —not just rare ones. In fact, the commoner the blood type, the more are needed. So even if your blood is one of the most common types — group O for example — you can be sure that by donating three times a year, you really are doing something amazing. What is the donation process?

The donation will last about an hour in all. When you arrive, you will be asked a few questions about your health. Then a drop of blood will be taken and tested just to make sure you’re not anemic(贫血). If all is well, your donation will be taken.

This only takes about ten minutes, during which time 470ml of blood will be collected. Most people hardly feel a thing. After a short rest, a drink and biscuits, you’ll be up and ready to go. All equipment used in the collection of your blood is new and is never reused, so you don’t have to worry about risks to your health in the collection of your blood. Who can become a blood donor?

Becoming a blood donor really is very simple. As long as you’re in good health and aged between 17 and 60, you can become a blood donor. If you would like more information or advice, or you want to become a blood donor, ring the donor helpline on 0845 7711. The donor helpline is open 24 hours a day — every day of the year.

56. Which is the subtitle of Paragraph 2? A. Why should you donate blood? B. What types of blood are needed?

C. What should you consider before donation? D. How many times a year can you donate blood? 57. Before giving blood, you will ________.

A. rest for a while B. wait for one day C. fill in a form D. take a blood test 58. What does the passage tell us about the donation process? A. It takes many hours. B. It’s done on computer. C. It doesn’t need equipment. D. It won’t affect donors’ health.

59. The purpose of the writing is to _______. A. introduce the National Blood Service B. show the importance of donation

C. call on people to donate blood

D. remind people of the danger

B

A Mountain of Green Beans

Another envelope in the mail. There’s my name, Alexander Spencer, typed on the front. I throw it under the bed. The piles of envelopes are growing.

The envelopes were applications to all the colleges I was supposed to attend. I did open the first envelope. Then I saw the application, all those blank spaces I was supposed to fill with my own writing, spaces for my name and birth date and grade average and … statement of purpose. I looked at them for a long time. I could write for hours and not fill all those spaces. So I put the application back in the envelope. I would fill it out the next day, when I had time. But another envelope arrived. And then the pile began.

The pile scares me — it is really like a monster. All the while, I feel the weight of a million envelopes raining down on my head until my grandmother calls me and wants to know how I am. “I am overcome by too many tasks,” I say.

“Honey, you just take it bit by bit,” she says, and she reminds me about the green beans.

When I was a little kid I hated green beans. But my mom said I couldn’t leave the table until I ate ten green beans. All alone at the table, I stared at the green beans for what seemed like hours. It was a mountain of green beans. I couldn’t do it.

My grandma came to me and asked if I could eat one green bean. “But Grandma, I have to eat ten!”

She said all I had to do was to eat one green bean. One tiny little green bean. So I ate one. It was bad, but not as bad as I’d thought it would be. Then she asked me again if I could eat one. So I ate one green bean nine more times. My grandma doesn’t know about the envelopes, but she tells me anyone can do one thing every day.

Back in my room, I lay down on the bed. Just like I used to do when I was a little kid, I hang my head down to look at the pile of envelopes. There it is. But instead of a monster, I see a pile of green beans. Who’s afraid of green beans?

60. Envelopes are piling up because the author _______. A. doesn’t know how to reply B. feels bored of the paper work C. doesn’t want to attend college D. has been too busy to open them

61. What does the author learn from the story of the green beans? A. A good start is half done.

B. Actions speak louder than words.

C. A long journey begins with a single step. D. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. 62. What do you think the author will do next?

A. He will fill out the applications one after another. B. He will go to the college that he dreams of. C. He will throw away all the envelopes. D. He will eat up the green beans.

C

Have you ever looked toward the sky on a fall day and witnessed a group of migrating birds? If so, you probably noted the V-shaped formation of the birds or the birds flying in a ball-like formation. Why do birds fly this way? Many theories have been developed to explain the formation patterns of different types of birds.

One theory is that birds fly in certain formations to take advantage of the laws of nature. The birds know that flying in a V-shaped pattern will save energy. Like the lead cyclist in a race who decreases wind force for the cyclists who follow, the lead bird cuts wind force for the birds that follow. This decrease in wind force means that the birds use up to 70 percent less energy during their flight. When the lead bird becomes tired, a more rested bird takes over that position.

But saving energy is important for more than one reason. Sometimes food is short during migration flights. Keeping energy enables the birds to fly longer distances between meals.

When food is sighted, the birds guide one another in a different way. When a bird identifies a familiar feeding area, it might turn around in order to signal the group to change direction. Then, this bird becomes the new leader. It helps guarantee that other birds will know exactly where it is going. Then the whole group makes a change in direction, gently streaming from the sky down to the ground. This formation is like an arrow pointing to the location of food.

Scientists have also studied the birds that sometimes fly in a ball-like formation. Researchers believe that the birds come together if a predator（天敌） is spotted. The predator may then become impatient waiting for a single bird to fly away from the group. The birds will often dip and dive as a group, frustrating even the most persistent enemy. Scientists report that this is a very effective method of defense against an attack.

The birds care for their fellow fliers through teamwork. As transportation expert Henry Ford once said, “If everyone is moving forward together, then success takes care of itself.” When it comes to teamwork, these feathered fliers are a soaring success!

63. According to the passage, we can learn that birds ___________. A. move faster than cyclists B. prefer to fly in a V formation C. are smarter than other animals D. play different roles in a formation 64. When food is sighted, ____________. A. the group follows the discoverer B. the lead bird decides what to do C. the discoverer leaves the group D. the whole group forms a stream

65. To protect themselves from attack, birds will _____________ . A. break into groups B. come close together C. change directions D. fly up and down 66. Which is the best title for the passage? A. A Bird’s-Eye View of Teamwork. B. Success Takes Care of Itself. C. The Strongest Will Survive. D. A Science Behind Flying.

D A Myth

It is true that world population is growing, but this is not the cause of our current and future global problems. Believing this will cause us to ignore the real problem and risk long-term damage to our planet.

Let me start by explaining why overpopulation is a For one thing, the UN Population Division regularly predicts population growth but provides a low variant (变量), medium variant, and high variant to factor in various possibilities. In the 2010 revision, their high variant suggests that the world population will be almost 16 billion in 2100, but the low variant predicts it will peak at 8 billion and decrease to just over 6 billion by 2100. In most cases, it is the low variant that has come true in the past, suggesting the same will be true of their future population predictions. In addition to this, the size of families is actually decreasing.

For another, if the Earth is overpopulated, there needs to be insufficient (短缺) food, water, and space for humans to live. However, Indian economist Raj Krishna estimates that India alone is able to increase crop produce to the point of providing the entire world’s food supply. The World Food Programme confirms that there is sufficient food grown to feed the world and there is the same amount of fresh water on the planet now as there was 10,000 years ago. So how is it possible that the number of people in the world is affecting our planet?

Therefore, it is not an increase in population but an increase in consumption that is a severe threat. Materialism and

3D cinema has been around since the early 20th century, but Hollywood brought the technology back in 2007. Many thought it was just a trick to make more money. But then came Avatar, the first mustsee movie in 3D.

But since Avatar, 3D cinema has struggled. people said the technology was dead. Of course, that wasn't the first time Hollywood had struggled with new technology. Although sound was added to movies in the late 1920s, it took audiences time to get used to the new technology. But in the end, sound and colour became the standard. James Cameron, director of Avatar, thinks we're going through the same process with 3D.

Some say cinemas are charging too much for 3D movies. In the US, seeing a 3D movie can cost up to $7.5 more than seeing it in 2D.Also, a recent study at California State University finds audiences don't actually enjoy movies in 3D any more than in 2D.Walter Murch, a famous movie editor, wrote in 2011 that human beings have no ability to process 3D images. Watching a 3D movie confuses our brain and this is why some people get headaches.

But James Cameron disagrees. In fact, he recently predicted that in five years all movies will be in 3D.And there are signs that 3D is fighting back. More 3D movies were put on the market in 2012 than ever before. The Lion King 3D recently made over US $150 million at the box office, and Cameron's Titanic 3D made even more.

Who knows what the future holds for 3D? Steven Spielberg recently said, “I'm hoping 3D gets to a point where people notice it. Because then it just becomes another tool and helps tell a story.”

1．The underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 probably means that in 2010, 3D

movies________．

A．were not successful

B．became popular

C．developed quickly

D．were of poor quality

2．The example of sound and colour is used mainly to show that________．

A．Hollywood tends to absorb what is new

B．3D technology takes time to be accepted

C．Hollywood struggles with new technology

D．high technology helps to make better movies

3．In Walter Murch's opinion, 3D movies________．

A．bring moviemakers great profits

B．are more expensive than 2D movies

C．do great harm to people's health

D．are unsuitable for people to watch

4．What can we learn from the text?

A．Avatar was the first 3D movie.

B．3D cinema has existed for years.

C．Titanic 3D has made the most money.

D．2012 witnessed the coming of 3D's time.

【要点综述】自从《阿凡达》采用3D影像技术获得巨大成功之后，全世界范围内掀起了一股波涛汹涌的3D热潮。本文就3D时代是否到来展开了讨论。

1．A 推理判断题。由本段中关键词struggled、dead和bombed可判断该句意为“票房失利”。故选A项。

One evening in February 2007. A student named Paula Ceely brought her car to a stop on a remote in Wales. She got out to open a metal gate that blocked her path . That's when she heard the whistle sounded by the driver of a train. Her Renault Clio parked across a railway line. Second later, she watched the train drag her car almost a kilometre down the railway tracks.

Ceely's made the news because she blamed it on her GPS device(导航仪).She had never driven the route before .It was dark and raining heavily. Ceely was relying on her GPS. But it made no mention of the crossing. "I put my complete trust in the device and it led me right into the path of a speeding train," she told the BBC. W ho is to blame here? Rick Stevenson, who tells Ceely's story in his book When Machines Fail US, finger at the limitations of technology. We put our faith in digital devices, he says,

But our digital helpers are too often not up to the job. They are filled with small problems. And it’s not just GPS devices: Stevenson takes us on a tour of digital disasters involving everything from mobile phones to wireless key boards.

The problem with his argument in the book is that it’s not clear why he only focuses digital technology, while there may be a number of other possible causes. A map-maker might have left the crossing off a paper map. Maybe we should blame Ceely for not paying attention. Perhaps the railway authorities are at fault for poor signaling system. Or maybe someone has studied the relative dangers and worked out that there really is something specific wrong with the CPS equipment. But Stevenson doesn’t say.

It’s a problem that runs through the book. In a section on cars, Stevenson gives an account of the

advanced techniques that criminals use to defeat computer-based locking systems for cars. He offers two independent sets of figures on car theft; both show a small rise in some parts of the country. He says that once once again not all new locks have proved reliable. Perhaps, but maybe it’s also due to the shortage of policemen on the streets. Or changing social circumstances. Or some combination of these factors.

The game between humans and their smart devices is complex. It is shaped by economics and psychology and the cultures we live in. Somewhere in the mix of those forces there may be way a wiser use of technology.

If there is such a way, it should involve more than just an awareness of the shortcomings of our machines. After all, we have lived with them for thousands of years. They have probably been fooling us for just as long.
