1. Прочитайте и переведите текст
I usually have four meals a day. In the morning I have breakfast. At school I have lunch. At home I have dinner and in the evening I have supper. Besides, I like to eat an apple or a banana, or to drink a glass of juice between meals, if I'm thirsty. Yesterday I got up at 7 o'clock, washed, cleaned teeth and dressed. Then I had breakfast. I had mashed potatoes with meat, a cheese sandwich and a cup of tea for breakfast. At school we had a pie and a glass of orange juice. I'm always hungry when I come home after school.
Yesterday my mother cooked cabbage soup' roast chicken and rice, made pudding and tea. It was so tasty' I ate everything with pleasure. For supper we had pancakes with jam and sour cream. These are my favourite things.
My mother thinks that one apple a day keeps the doctor away. That’s why she buys fruit and vegetables every day. Yesterday she bought oranges and kiwi. I have a sweet tooth and my parents often buy me ice-cream, sweets, chocolate, cakes, cookies and other tasty things. I like them very much.

Билет 2. My meals
1. Прочитайте и переведите текст
It goes without saying that I prefer to have meals at home. At the weekend I like to get up late and have a good breakfast of scrambled eggs, or pancakes, or something like that. But on weekdays I'm always short of time in the morning. So I just have a cup of strong tea or coffee and a couple of sandwiches.

As I spend a lot of time at school (usually eight or nine hours) it's necessary to have a snack at midday just to keep me going. That's why I have to go to the school canteen to have lunch. Our school canteen leaves much to be desired. It has become a tradition with our canteen to serve chops and watery mashed potatoes every day with a glass of cocoa or stewed fruit.

But I enjoy my evening meal at home. My mother is a wonderful cook and her dinners are always delicious and various.

To begin with, we usually have some salad — tomato and cucumber salad or mixed salad (I like it very much). For the first course we have some soup — noodle, mushroom or cabbage soup, or maybe some fish soup for a change. For the main course we have meat, chicken or fish dishes, for example, steak or fried fish with spaghetti or potatoes (boiled or fried). We also have a lot of vegetables — green peas, carrots, tomatoes, cucumbers. I prefer meat to fish but my mother makes me eat fish from time to time. She says it's good for my brains.

For dessert we have some fruit, fruit juice or just a cup of tea with a slice of cake.

On Sundays we sometimes go to McDonald's. I like everything there: cheeseburgers, hamburgers and Big Macs, apple pies and fruit cocktails. But unfortunately we can't afford to go there very often, because it's rather expensive for a family and besides, they say it's not very healthy to eat at McDonald's.

English food is full of dishes that have strange names and wonderful flavours. Though the current national dish is currently considered to be Chicken Tikka Masala, there is much famous, more traditional fare to be enjoyed. All through the day, you can tickle your taste buds with things like bubble and squeak, kedgeree, a Cornish pasty, or a Devon scone. The food is complimented by the pleasant teas, ales, and ciders specific to the nation of England as well. Whether you prefer Edwardian culinary delights, Victorian tasty treats, or more contemporary fare, you can explore the local cuisine all over the countryside and in the city as well.
Start your day off with a Full English breakfast, a substantial start to the day. Traditional components to this traditional hearty breakfast are fried eggs, fried toast, mushrooms, grilled tomatoes, bangers (links of pork sausage fried up in a skillet, sometimes exploding with a bang), rashers of bacon, and baked beans. Some add black (blood) pudding or white pudding to the plate. Add a pot of tea to the table and you have a spread worthy of lingering at the table on a lazy weekend. If you are more inclined to a simpler, but still filling meal to jumpstart the day, traditional English porridge will hit the spot. Devilled kidneys on toast were once the breakfast food of choice. Brunches often include kedgeree, a curried rice, haddock, and egg concoction.
If you can think about lunch after that filling breakfast, you might try a traditional sandwich like roast beef and horseradish or egg and watercress. Cornish pasties are pastries filled with savoury meat and potatoes are crimped closed and cooked to make them portable pies, perfect for a picnic lunch. Fish and chips are also a traditional take-away English food. Grab some from a fish and chips stand and keep on going, or sit back and relax while you enjoy this deliciously fried treat. Hang out at a pub for steak and ale pie, Ploughman's, or smoked salmon.
Afternoon tea is perhaps the most famous eating tradition in England. People around the world associate the nation with this repast. It starts with crustless, dainty sandwiches, moves to cakes and scones, and is rounded off by petit fours. All along the way you drink delicious English teas. English food for afternoon tea is rich and indulgent, even though it was originally invented as an afternoon pick-me-up. No matter the time of day, traditional English delights can please your palate.

Mealtimes:
In many European countries it is normal to have a long break in the middle of the day when all members of the family return to their houses to eat together. This is not very common in Britain because normally it is a long way from the place of work or school to the home. Consequently the British people tend to have a big breakfast before they go to work and the meal at midday is not spent with the members of the family but with workmates or schoolmates. Lunch is normally eaten between 12.30 pm and 1.30pm. Most people finish work at five thirty. It often takes at least an hour to get home from the school or workplace so people tend to eat their evening meal or "dinner" between 6.30pm and 8pm.
On Sundays people don't have to work so they take the opportunity eat together with their family. Sunday lunch is usually the best meal of the week and many of the meals which are considered typically British are eaten for Sunday lunch. For example, roast beef and yorkshire pudding.
This is a typical British family eating together on Sunday.
After lunch the father will smoke his pipe and read the newspaper sitting on his favourite armchair 
while his wife washes the dishes. The children will play traditional English games such
as hopscotch, skipping or doctors and nurses.

Although everyone in Britain understands that "breakfast" is the first meal of the day. There is a lot of confusion about the words for other meals such as "dinner, lunch, tea, high tea , elevenses, brunch, supper" and if you ask a British person what these words mean, most of them will give you a different answer according to what part of the country they are from or from what social class they are from. Another example of this is the pronunciation of the word "scones" ( a type of cake eaten with Devonshire clotted cream, strawberry jam and cups of tea, known as a "cream tea")
Breakfast.
Generally speaking the British breakfast is much bigger than in most other countries. Many people like to have a fried breakfast which can consist of fried bacon and eggs with fried bread and possibly fried tomatoes or black pudding. Of course not everybody wants to eat a lot early in the morning and many people prefer to just eat toast and marmalade with tea or coffee. Cereals are also very popular. The most common is cornflakes. They are made with different grains such as corn, wheat, oats etc. If you go to a Britsh supermarket you will see that there are many types of cereals available. In Scotland many people eat "porridge" or boiled oats. Porridge is very heavy but in the winter it will keep you warm on your way to school.
Lunch
If you go to Britain to study English and you stay with a family you will almost certainly be given a "packed lunch" to eat for your midday meal. Some factories and schools have canteens where you can eat but the packed lunch is the most common thing to eat. A packed lunch normally consist of some sandwiches, a packet of crisps, an apple and a can of something to drink, for example, coca-cola. The contents are kept in a plastic container and you take it with you when you go to school or work. The quality of the packed lunch can vary from terrible to very good, it all depends on who makes it.
Dinner
Things are changing and most British people eat meals from many different countries for example spagetti or curry. In fact you could even say that the British don't eat much British food. However the most typical thing to eat for dinner is "meat and two veg". This consists of a piece of meat accompanied by two different boiled vegetables. This is covered with "gravy" which is a sauce made with the juice that was obtained when the meat was cooked. One of the vegetables is almost always potatoes. The British eat a lot of potatoes.


Билет 5. Russian cuisine

1. Прочитайте и переведите текст

There have always been two types of Russian cuisine - on the one hand, the aristocratic, rich style, and on the other hand – a peasant, simple, everyday style. Russian people loved chicken (turkey emerged at the beginning of the 17th century). Veal was not eaten. Russian kitchens only boiled, steamed or simmered food. Food was never heated in fat (butter).
During the times of the Rus, many different kinds of bread, cakes and pirogs were baked and filled with things which were in the house, farm, garden, field, or forest: chicken, vegetables, peas and beans, fruit, berries or mushrooms. The rivers were full of fish, so

Pirogs filled with all types of fish were very common. Chicken pirogs were eaten on public holidays. Meat was eaten boiled and on special occasions at the end of the meal like blessed food. There was no shortage of soup, especially vegetable soup: borsch, stchi – a soup made from marinated cabbage. Other, favourite was the famous Russian kasha. So there is a Russian saying : “ Stchi and kasha is all we ever get to eat''.
The cuisine of the aristocracy preferred the blinse cakes (pancakes) or towers, which were invented by Russian gourmands and comprised blinses of all manner - of different fillings piled up on top of each other. In the times of Catherine 11 it became fashionable to serve French and Russian meals at receptions, followed by delicious desserts and exotic fruits. The evening meal at the tsarist court comprised 80 courses for each person. There were hot broths, marinated chicken, rabbit, tortoise, sausages, pirogues, salads, oysters, bitter oranges, pastry, blinses, sweets.
It is of upmost importance for the Russian hospitality to set a rich table. Blinses are still very popular both by themselves or filled with meat, fish, caviar, and sour cream. Originally, they symbolized the sun.

Russian cuisine is rich and varied. In Russia there is a large variety of milk products: a sort of dry, granulated cream cheese called "tvorog", thick sour cream called "smetana", and several types of sour milk products of the yoghourt type. Smetana can be used with almost anything: a dollop of it in the soup, a spoonful eaten with meat dish, or strawberries and apples sliced up small and eaten mixed with smetana. It is also used on pancakes. Smetana is an almost universal flavouring sauce, or if you like, it can be drunk by the glassful with or without sugar. Smetana is made from cream. It contains 2,5% of protein, 20 - 40% of fats, lactic acid. One hundred grams contain 203 kilo-calory.
Kefir is a pleasant, useful beverage made from cow's milk, yeast and lactic acid bacteria. It's a dietary product. Ryazhenka is a sour milk product made from baked milk, very pleasant to taste.
There is a big choice of appetizers, soups, hot and dessert dishes. You can recommend your guests soft, pressed and red caviar. Its vitamin content is especially high. Then, of course, salmon, hot and cold smoked sturgeon, pikeperch in aspic or stuffed, herring, red herring, Baltic salt-sprats; fried, smoked, marinated smelt and the like.
As for cold meat dishes our guests can taste ham, lean cold boiled pork with spices (buzhenina), jellied tongue, meat jelly and horse-radish sauce and various salads beginning with salad "Stolychnii" up to Russian salad. For a change you can taste frozen apples. They are delicious. Russian blini with caviar and mushrooms in thick sour cream sauce are popular hot appetizers.
How about soups? There are plenty of them. Fresh cabbage meat shchee, shchee "Petrovskie" (cooked from soodak fish and fresh cabbage), Moscow borshch, kidney and cucumber soup (rassolnik), meat and fish sawlyanka, ookha (special fisherman's soup), mushroom soup and soups in season - okroshka and cold beetroot soup are very popular with our guests. For the hot dish guests can order pike-perch in white wine or fried, sturgeon of all kind - boiled, steamed or on a spit, fried burbot or carp in thick sour-cream sauce or meat dishes to their taste: beef-Stroganoff and mashed potatoes, roast veal, special pot-roast stuffed cabbage-rolls (golubtsy), Siberian pelmeni, suckling with buckwheat "kasha", stewed rabbit and hare and so on. Now a few words about buckwheat "kasha" which may be eaten with meat like potatoes as well as a cereal with butter or milk. It's very popular in our country because it's a very useful product.
It's recommended for stout people, for people suffering from diabetes. Buckwheat kasha purifies our organism and makes us stronger.
There is a large variety of poultry and game dishes: roast chicken, roast duck and goose stuffed with apples and sauerkraut, roast partridge, hazel-grouse, wood-grouse, wood-cock, black-cock, pheasant and quail. They are juicy and tender dishes.
How about dessert? For dessert you can have baked apples, fruit and berry kissels (made from fruit or berry juice and potato flour), compot (made from dried stewed fruit mixed), dessert fruits: aromatic melons from Middle Asia, watermelons from the Volga, juicy grapes, pears, apricots, peaches, tangerines, oranges. And at last Goorievskaya kasha. This dessert dish was made in honour of the victory over Napoleon in the war of 1812. Taste it!
These dishes are served at the Russian restaurants "Sadko", "Troyka", "Okolitsa" and at many other fashionable restaurants in our city.
Russian cuisine is famous for its Russian pies which were baked in Russia in good old times and remain popular nowadays. They are: kulebiaka (a Russian pie with meat or cabbage filling), rastegay (a pie with special fish filling), open curd tarts (vatrushJa), honey-cakes, twists of bread (krendeli), boubliki (thick ring-shaped rolls), baranki (ring-shaped rolls), sooshki (small ring-shaped crackers), Russian Easter cakes and various fancy-cakes.

Билет 9. British Cuisine

Some people criticize English food. They say it's unimaginable, boring, tasteless, it's chips with everything and totally overcooked vegetables. The basic ingredients, when fresh, are so full of flavour that British haven't had to invent sauces to disguise their
natural taste. What can compare with fresh pees or new potatoes just boiled and served with butter? Why drown spring lamb in wine or cream and spices, when with just one or two herbs it is absolutely delicious? If you ask foreigners to name some typically English dishes, they will probably say "Fish and chips" then stop. It is disappointing, but true that, there is no tradition in England of eating in restaurants, because the food doesn't lend itself to such preparation. English cooking is found at home. So it is difficult to find a good English restaurant with a reasonable prices. In most cities in Britain you'll find Indian, Chinese, French and Italian restaurants. In London you'll also find Indonesian, Mexican, Greek... Cynics will say that this is because English have no "cuisine" themselves, but this is not quite the true.

Билет 11. Meals and cooking

1. Прочитайте и переведите текст


Living in Russia one cannot but stick to a Russian diet. Keeping this diet for an Englishman is fatal. The Russians have meals four times a day and their cuisine is quite intricate.
Every person starts his or her day with breakfast. Poor English­men are sentenced to either a continental or an English breakfast. From the Russian point of view, when one has it continental it ac­tually means that one has no breakfast at all, because it means drinking a cup of coffee and eating a bun. A month of continental breakfasts for some Russians would mean starving. The English breakfast is a bit better, as it consists of one or two fried eggs, grilled sausages, bacon, tomatoes and mushrooms. The English have tea with milk and toast with butter and marmalade. As a choice one may have corn flakes with milk and sugar or porridge.
In Russia people may have anything for breakfast. Some good-humoured individuals even prefer soup, but, of course, sandwiches and coffee are very popular. One can easily understand that in Great Britain by one o'clock people are very much ready for lunch. Lunch is the biggest meal of the day. That would be music for a Russian's ears until he or she learns what lunch really consists of. It may be a meat or fish course with soft drinks followed by a sweet course.
The heart of a Russian person fills with joy when the hands of the clock approach three o'clock. His or her dinner includes three courses. A Russian will have a starter (salad, herring, cheese, etc.), soup, steaks, chops, or fish fillets with garnish, a lot of bread, of course, and something to drink. The more the better. At four or five the Russians may have a bite: waffles, cakes with juice, tea, cocoa, or something of the kind.
In Great Britain they have dinner at five or six. Soup may be served then, but one should not be misled by the word "soup". British soup is just thin paste and a portion is three times smaller than in Russia. A lot of British prefer to eat out. "Fish and Chips" shops are very popular with their take-away food. The more sophisticated public goes to Chinese, Italian, seafood or other restaurants and ex­periments with shrimp, inedible vegetables and hot drinks.
