Meals
People usually have four meals a day. They are: breakfast, lunch, dinner, and tea or supper.
Most people never have supper because they don’t want to eat much before going to bed. If they happen to feel hungry late in the evening, they have a cup of tea with a small slice of bread and butter and maybe some ham or sausage. The children, as a rule, have porridge and milk.
Usually, people have lunch at work. They cannot get home for this meal so they eat it in café, or take food from home – such as sandwiches, biscuits – and have lunch at work.
Soup Dinner is a substantial meal for most of the people. At home, they usually have a three-course dinner, especially on weekends.
On Saturdays and Sundays all the family eats together, as a rule. For the first course, people have soup (noodle, mushroom, fish or cabbage soup).
Soup
Then they have some kind of meat, fish or chicken with vegetables, spaghetti or potatoes.
For dessert, they often have a cup of coffee, or tea, and maybe some juice (stewed fruit) with cakes or sweets.
Answer the following questions: • • • Do people usually have four meals a day? Why do most people never have supper? Why do people usually have lunch at work? Is dinner a substantial meal for most of the people? Does dinner usually consist of three courses? What do people have for the first course, for the second course and for dessert?
Thank you! Good Luck!
