People in different parts of the world have very
different ideas about what is good to eat. Even when people in different
countries eat the same food, they often prepare it very differently. If you were
in Germany, you would find soup that is thick and heavy. If you were in China,
you would find soup that is thin and clear. On holidays most of us eat special
foods. Year after year, even if many other things change, the food is always the
same. Sometimes housewives begin weeks in advance to prepare the special foods
that are traditionally served on certain holidays. People in
different parts of the world also have different ideas about what is good to
drink. Among the most popular hot drinks are coffee and tea. Coffee is very
popular in northern Europe and in the Middle East. Some people put cream and
sugar in their coffee. But in the United States, many people drink their coffee
"black" that is without cream or sugar. Tea is the national drink in China,
Japan, and other oriental(东方的)countries. In the orient, people drink tea without
sugar. But in England, where it is also a national drink, many people use both
sugar and hot or cold milk in their tea.
