A. READING COMPREHESION
Read the following passage and choose the best answer.
Isn’t it amazing how much time we spend talking about food ? “Have you ever
eaten…?” “What did you have for lunch ?” and so on. And yet when you travel from one
country to another, you find that people have quite different feelings about food. People often
feel that what they eat is normal, and that what other people eat is strange or silly. In most
parts of Asia, for example, no meal is complete without rice. In England, people eat potatoes
every day. In the Middle East, bread is the main part of every meal. Eating, like so many
things we do, becomes a habit, which is difficult to change. Americans like to drink a lot of
orange juice and coffee. The English drink tea four or five times every day. Australians drink
large amounts of beer, and the French drink wine every day.
The sort of meat people like to eat also differs from one country to another. Horse meat
is thought to be delicious in France. In Hong Kong, some people enjoy eating snakes.
New Zealanders eat sheep, but they never eat goat meat. The Japanese do not like to eat
sheep because of its smell, but they enjoy eating raw fish.
So it seems that although eating is a topic that we can talk about for hours, there is very
little common sense in what we say about it. People everywhere enjoy eating what they have
always eaten, and there is very little we can do to change our eating habits.
