2你是否好奇，为何中国人对热水情有独钟？
本期小宇宙节目，我们将揭开这一独特生活习惯背后的文化密码。
自古以来，中国人就有喝热水的习惯，在《孟子·告子上》中曾提到：“冬日则饮汤，夏日则饮水”；在中医理论中，温热的饮品有助于调和身体阴阳，维护健康，这一理念代代相传；热水泡茶也是茶文化中非常重要的一个因素。
不仅如此，热水早已融入中国人的社交与情感表达 —— 生病时家人递来的热水，做客时主人奉上的热茶，都承载着关怀与善意。
Since ancient times, Chinese people have had a habit of drinking hot water
In the book Mencius, it says, in winter one drinks hot soup, and in summer one drinks water
Here hot soup actually refers to hot water.
Chinese people believe that their bodies are naturally more on the cold side, so drinking hot water helps balance Yin and Yang, improves blood circulation and is good for health.
Also, China is the birthplace of tea culture, making tea requires hot water to bring out the full flavor and aroma of the tea leaves.
That's why hot water is an important part of enjoying tea
In short, drinking hot water is not just a habit but also a part of the Chinese culture and health practices
-Mencius 指代孟子本人或者《孟子》这本书
- Students of Chinese philosophy often study excerpts from Mencius.（中国哲学专业的学生常研读《孟子》选段。）
