barbecue虽然是个新话题，但是提问方式仍然属于常规类型，集中在喜好类和过去类。同时，由于barbecue与日常生活关联密切，所以并不会出现无话可说的情况，因此难点仍在于话题词汇和句型的准备上。不过不用担心，糖糖都为大家准备好了，还请来Vicky亲自给大家写答案！老规矩，一定要先把以下相关表达都抄到小本本上，再把Vicky的答案每天读三遍哦！
- to fire up the grill = 直译为“点燃烤架”，也就是开个烧烤趴
e.g. Why don't you come over this weekend and we'll fire up the grill? 你

- to grill out, to cook out, to have a cookout = 也是开个烧烤趴
e.g. We had a cookout last weekend on the beach.

1. Do Chinese people like barbecue?
Absolutely yes. In China, barbecue is widely welcomed by people of all regions. Barbecue is a universally loved way of cooking meat, and it’s often found sizzling away in the streets of China’s biggest cities or in restaurants dedicated to the art of cooking over fire. However, a lot of Chinese barbecue isn’t what people would call barbecue in the West. While westerners think of barbecue in terms of glowing charcoal, wood smoke and cooking outdoors, a lot of what is sold as Chinese barbecue is actually roasted in special ovens, with hanging meat being blasted with dry, hot heat until it's crisp.
当然。中国所有地区的人们都非常喜欢烧烤。烧烤是一种广受欢迎的烹制肉食的方式，在中国大城市的大街小巷里，随处可见专营烧烤的餐厅。但是，大部分的中式烧烤与西式烧烤不同。西方人眼中的烧烤是闪着微光的木炭、冒着烟的木头和户外烹饪，但很多中式烧烤实际上是在一个特制的炉子里烘烤，悬挂在内的肉被又干又烫的大火烤至酥软。

2. What kind of food do you like to eat for barbecue?
My favourite barbecue is the lamb or mutton skewers heavily spiced with cumin. It’s a typical cooking way from Xinjiang. Besides, I also prefer completely vegetarian skewers consisting of ingredients such as tofu, aubergine and mushrooms.
我最喜欢的烧烤是洒满了孜然的羊肉串。这是一种来自新疆的经典烹饪方式。此外，我也喜欢全素的烧烤，比如豆腐、茄子和蘑菇串成的串儿。

3. Would you like to have barbecue with your family or your friends?
Definitely yes. Barbecue is the most delighting way to enjoy the big get-togethers with the family. I can’t stop smiling when thinking of the scene that some members are charged of preparing the ingredients, some doing the grill while others enjoy the drinking and food. One more thing, outdoor barbecues outweigh the indoor ones!
当然。烧烤是与家人大聚会时最让人开心的方式。一想到有些人负责准备食材，有些人负责烧烤，而另外还有些人在开心的吃吃喝喝，我就情不自禁地微笑起来。还有就是户外烧烤比室内烧烤更爽！

4. Did you have barbecue when you were a child?
Yes. My father once bought an electronic oven for barbecue, and my mother usually prepared us some pork, beef and shrimps for grilling on Sundays. In order to replicate the way how Korean people make barbecue, my mum even got the recipe of Korean sauces which always turned out to be extremely successful to arouse our appetite and fulfill the hunger.
是的。我爸爸曾经为了烧烤买过一个电烤箱，我妈妈则经常为我们准备一些猪肉、牛肉和虾以便在周日进行烧烤。为了模仿韩式烤肉，我妈妈还找到了韩国调料的菜谱，而且大获成功，令我们胃口大开。
