46、ItalyOne of the great pleasures of Italy is eating. In Italy breakfast is normally around 8:00 a.m. and consists of biscuits or croissants (羊角面包), accompanied by strong coffee or perhaps tea. The main meal of the day is often lunch, which starts anywhere between 1:00 and 2:00 p.m. and may last up to

Two main courses are preceded by a starter and followed by cheese, a dessert, a

We often hear people say that travel broadens the mind: If you stay in your own country your whole life, your ideas remain narrow; if you travel abroad you see new customs, meet new people, eat new food, do new things, and come back home more broad-minded. e英语教程3Unit 5Passa

56、ge ADoes travel broaden the mind?2. But does this always happen? An acquaintance of mine who lives in England had never been abroad; until last summer he decided to go to France for a trip.

57、ywhere. Thank goodness Im back.” I asked him whether he had any good food while he was there. “Oh, the dinners were all right,” he said. “I found a little place where they made quite good fish and chips. Not as good as ours, mind you, but they were acceptable. But the breakfasts were terrible: no ba

58、con or kippers. I had fried eggs and chips, but it was quite an effort getting them to make them. They expected me to eat rolls. And when I asked for marmalade, they brought strawberry jam. And do you know, they insisted that it was marmalade? The trouble is they dont know English.” _e英语教程3Unit 5Pas

59、sage ADoes travel broaden the mind?3. I thought it useless to explain that we borrowed the word “marmalade” from French, and that it means, in that language, any kind of jam. So I said, “But didnt you eat any of the famous French food?” “What? Me?” he said. “Of course not! Give me good old English f

60、ood every time! None of those fancy bits for me!” Clearly, traveling had not broadened his mind. He had gone to France determined to live there exactly as if he were in England and had judged it entirely from his own English viewpoints. e英语教程3Unit 5Passage ADoes travel broaden the mind?4. This does not, of course, happen only to Englishmen in France. People of al
