火鍋【2】火鍋(hot pot)是中國的`傳統飲食方式之一，擁有幾千年的歷史。在寒冷的冬天，人們軎歡吃能立即暖身和提神的火鍋。如今在許多現代家庭裏，用煤炭加熱的 (coal-heated)傳統火鍋已經被電磁爐(induction cooker)火鍋所取代。各地火鍋風格各異，所使用的火鍋原料也不盡相同。-般來說，用於火鍋的肉類包括豬肉、牛肉、雞肉、鴨肉等,其他的菜則包括蔬 菜、蘑菇、麪條等。
表達難點
1.第1句中含有“是……”和“擁有……”兩個動賓結構，如果沿用原結構翻譯，則略顯生硬，故將“擁有幾千年的歷史”用介詞短語with a history of...來表達，使句子結構簡練且符合英語表達習慣。
2.第2句中的定語“能立即暖身和提神的”較長，可用引導的定語從句來表達，“暖身”和“提神”可譯成兩個並列的動賓成分，表達爲that instantly warms their bodies and lifts their spirits。
3. 第4句“各地火鍋風格各異，所使用的火鍋原料也不盡相同”，此句的實際意義爲—火鍋風格和火鍋原料因地方不同而不同”，英語中“因......而異”有 vary from... to...的表達方式，故此處可表達爲hot pot styles and ingredients vary from region to region。
4.最後一句中的定語“用於火鍋的”按英文表達習慣，可將其處理成“肉類”的後置定語used for hot pot,由於通篇講的都是hot pot的話題，故此處可省略for hot pot，以避免重複囉嗦，使行文言簡意賅。
