BR 2-25 FOOD AND DRINK IN BRITAIN


Food and Drink in Britain is a book in the Oxford Bookworms series. It is in the Factfiles sub-series, the nonfiction counterpart of the Oxford Bookworms Library. It is a stage 3 book. The book is divided into 12 chapters: Introduction, Changes in diet and shopping, Farming and fishing, Home-cooked food, Eating out and eating outside, Fast food, Potatoes:a staple food…

The book as a whole has 27 pages, and each chapter comprises about 2 pages. The sentences are quit easy, with about 10-20 words a sentence. Most sentences are simple in structure, with few or no embedded clauses. The vocabulary is also quit simple, with few words that typical learners will need to look up in a dictionary. 

The chapters that appealed to me the most are Chapter 4: Home-cooked food and Chapter 12: How to make Scones. These chapters introduce Britain traditional cooked food. Some Britain people eat an egg for breakfast before going to work. But most people eat cereal, toast with butter and marmalade. And they often drink tea or coffee while meal. Some people have their biggest meal in the middle of the day and some have it in the evening. The evening meal is usually called "tea" or "dinner". Britain traditional food is meat and two vegetables. The popular meat is chicken, beef, pork and lamb. Also potatoes, carrots, peas, cabbage and onions are very popular vegetables. This book introduce how to make Scones. I like Scones very much. So I'll try to make it! Thank you for reading . See you soon.   302/ 6395 words
