READING TEST

BASICO 2

1 Read the text and tick () A, B, or C.

I love my job!
James Shannon is a chef in a London restaurant. He talks about his job.
I work at Suzies, which is one of the most popular restaurants in central London. The
best part of working there is being part of a fantastic team of friendly and talented
people.
I left school and started by washing dishes when I was only 16. I wasnt interested in
food and I never cooked at home, but I worked hard, and soon became a waiter.
Simon, who was head chef at the time, then began to show me how to cook and I
loved it so much I went to college to learn more.
When Simon left Suzies, I became head chef. At the time all the food was British. The
quality was excellent, but I wanted to do something different, so I decided to have an
international menu. Now we serve food from all around the world. There are so many
fantastic markets and food shops in London that I can usually find any ingredient I
need.
I use a lot of natural ingredients such as brown rice, organic flour, and pasta. Some
people think that healthy food is boring, but theyre wrong. Well-prepared natural food
has so much more flavour than fast food. Our food is healthy and our customers love
it. We use the very best meat and the highest quality vegetables.
Suzies is open Monday to Friday from 5.00 p.m. to 11.00 p.m., and from 12.00 a.m. to
11.00 p.m. at weekends. On Fridays and Saturdays we play live music from around
the world. Theres a childrens menu on Sundays and thats when we serve traditional
British food.

Example: James started as _____.

A a waiter
B a chef

C a dish washer

1 James started to learn how to cook _____.

A at college
B at the restaurant
C at home
2 When James became head chef, he changed the _____.
A restaurants name
B kind of food
C waiters
3 James finds ingredients in _____.
A other countries
B different places in Britain
C London
4 There is music _____.
A every day
B twice a week
C on Sundays
5 You cant eat at Suzies _____.
A on Saturday afternoons
B on Monday evenings
C on Sunday mornings
6 Suzies doesnt serve _____.
A meat
fast food
C British food
