Start the day in the English way

What do you like to have when you wake up?

Do you like to have a①         / J"au3 / ,a cup of

tea or a piece of fruit?

How about eggs,pork,sausages,beans in tomato sauce,bread and mushrooms, all cooked in an oily frying pan?

This is,according to tales,the traditional British breakfast,otherwise(否則)  known as the "Full English" or "Fry Up". It's meaty,fatty,salty and unhealthy,and it's served all day,every day.

We British proudly tell the story of how,when most people worked as farmers, they needed a "real" breakfast―a "British breakfast" to get them started for a long day's work.

Nowadays, we often continue,②the" Full English" is eaten daily by truck drivers and builders,who also work long hours and don't have regular meals.

But does every British person really chew(咀嚼) through this daily mountain?

A recent survey of those builders I mentioned before—showed that less than 1 percent had a regular "Fry Up" and most actually preferred salad or sushi.③In fact, studies show that about two-thirds of British people don't eat breakfast at all.

But then,how often do you eat Beijing Roast Duck,go to Chinese opera or do a Sichuanese mask-changing dance?

We love to talk about how much we love our

traditions―even if we only actually④       

/'kaen/ them out when guests are around. In fact,many British people don't actually know how to make a British breakfast—which is why cafes are so good at serving them to tourists.

I did know one person who ate a British breakfast every morning,though—my grandfather.

⑤他不是英國人。He was from the Netherlands.

Maybe he wanted to surprise the crowd with his own strange tradition―being the only person eating a British breakfast,and the only non-British person in the room.
