The English usually have four meals a day: breakfast, lunch , tea (5:00) and dinner. Breakfast can be a full “English breakfast” of cornflakes with milk and sugar, or bacon and eggs, toast and marmalade, tea of coffee. Some people, however, have just a cup of tea or coffee with a toast of something similar. This is usually a “continental breakfast (大陆式早餐)”.
At midday everything is stopped for lunch. Most offices and small shops are closed for an hour and the city pavements are full of people on their way to cafes, coffee bars, restaurants. All workers usually eat in their factories.
The English like what they call “good plain food”. They must be able to recognize what they are eating. Usually they like steak, roast beef, Yorkshire pudding and fish and chips.
Afternoon tea is taken at about 5:00, but it can hardly be called a meal, it is a cup of tea and cake or biscuits. At the weekends afternoon tea is a special occasion (场合). Friends and visitors are often invited to have a chat over a cup of tea.
Dinner is the most important meal of the day. It is usually eaten at 7:00. the first course may be soup. The main course will often be fish or meat, perhaps the traditional roast beef of old England, and a lot of vegetables. The next course will be something sweet and often cooked, such as fruit pie. Last of all there may be cheese, often with biscuits.
