Another popular breakfast food is eggs scrambled
with spices, potatoes, and onions. In southern
India you can eat apam, a delicious rice pancake,
similar to a crepe, that is filled with spiced meat
or potatoes and vegetables. We also like to eat
puttu, which is a steamed rice and coconut dish,
served with bananas and milk, and idli, a steamed
warm rice cake. Spiced tea is the beverage of
choice in most of India, but in the south, we prefer
coffee.

In Switzerland, we love to eat muesli in the


morning. Usually, muesli is a combination of
rolled oats, nuts, and fresh and dried fruits, which
is served with milk or yoghurt. Our national
dish, Rsti potatoes, is another favourite Swiss
breakfast choice. This dish consists of potatoes
that are first boiled, then grated and fried, and
finally grilled and topped with cheese. Sometimes,
breakfast is a hearty meal of eggs, bread with JAP AN
butter and jam, cold meats, and cheese. Coffee
and hot chocolate are the beverages of choice. A traditional Japanese breakfast consists of tea,
steamed rice, and miso soup, which is made from
fermented soy bean paste. These main dishes
are usually served with several other small side
dishes, such as dried fish, eggs, nori seaweed,
and umeboshi, which are pickled plums. These
days, especially in urban areas, many people eat
western-style breakfasts, with toast, juice and eggs.
Coffee has become a very popular breakfast
beverage in Japan.

This small and intimate French restaurant is famous for its excellent food. It is located on the
St. Lawrence River and offers a beautiful view from the windows. The candlelight and soft music make it relaxing
and romantic.
The menu choice is fairly small because Chez Henri specializes in steak and seafood. Their fish is very fresh
and cooked to perfection.The wine list has some excellent French wines. Both the red and white house wines are
dry but expensive.
The appetiser includes an excellent cream of seafood soup or a fresh, crispy Romaine salad with a
wonderful dressing. For the main course, my partner had the baked salmon which was served with buttered
asparagus, a baked potato, and a slice of lemon. I chose the seafood platter which included shrimp, scallops
and a small lobster. It came with buttered carrots and rice. Both dishes were perfectly cooked. The service was
excellent.
For dessert, my partner had an exceptional chocolate mousse in a delicate Grand Marnier sauce.
I chose a creamy French pastry which was also superb. All the desserts were fantastic. In fact, the chocolate
mousse received the Prix dExcellence last year. The coffee was also excellent.
Appetizers, main course, dessert and coffee come to $85.00 per couple. Chez Henri seems expensive, but
for the quality of food and service it is more reasonable than the majority of restaurants in its class.

This simple, cozy, neighbourhood restaurant is very informal. The small room has only ten tables, each
covered with red and white checkered tablecloths. There are beautiful pictures of Italy on the walls.
Marias is a small family-run operation. It offers very good Italian food with big servings and at modest
prices. The daily special includes soup or salad, main course, dessert and coffee. The fresh homemade soup of
the day is very tasty and the basic salad is very simple but good too. The menu is limited to pasta, but all the
pasta is homemade and first-rate. I recommend the house specialty, linguine in white sauce with chicken breast
and spinach. The homemade Italian ice-cream is delicious. Finish the meal with a really good cappuccino coffee.
All this for only $11.00 per person! You can bring your own wine.
The service is a little slow but that gives you the time to have a long relaxed dinner and enjoy unlimited
cups of coffee. The place is small but comfortable and extremely friendly.

This chain of fast-food restaurants offers the tastiest chicken wings at the lowest prices in the country a
bucket of 30 spicy chicken wings for $16.00 including coleslaw, French fries and drinks!
Unfortunately, the hamburgers are not recommended because they are very greasy. The bun I had was
soggy with grease. Also, the lettuce on the burger was not fresh.
The restaurants dessert specialty, a strawberry pastry topped with whipped cream was disappointing.
It tasted artificial. The quality of the coffee was only ordinary.
Children under five get free apple juice or milk and on Monday night they can eat at half price.
The restaurant is family-oriented as it provides coloured crayons and paper for kids to draw on while they
wait for their meal. The MacKenzie restaurants are extremely clean but the decor is rather cool and not very
interesting. A major attraction is their quick and efficient service.

Andreas Buffet offers a great choice of almost everything you can imagine soups, salads, roast beef, roast
lamb, seafood, Chinese food, Italian food, and all kinds of desserts! You will see table after table of food and you
can serve yourself as many times as you like.
All of the food is good, and some of it is delicious. The coffee, however, is only average. In evenings, a meal
costs $11.00 a person for all you can eat. Alcoholic beverages and milk are extra. Children under five can eat
at half price. The restaurant has good red and white house wines and various makes of beer are served at
reasonable prices.
The dining room is huge and therefore gets very noisy. The service is friendly but rather slow. It can take
up to ten minutes for the waiter to bring water or a beverage.

8. Objective choice questions


Read the text and answer the questions that follow.

How much sleep is enough for you?

Sleep disorders are what North Americans complain about the most. Four in ten adults
experience some kind of insomnia at least once a year. Lack of sleep can seriously affect mental
and physical activities. It can have an effect similar to drinking alcohol.

The right amount of sleep is the amount that will permit you to function throughout the day
without feeling drowsy when you sit quietly. On average, an adult needs seven to eight hours.
However, some people need as little as five hours while others need as many as ten. Sleep needs
also vary with age.

Babies up to six months need eighteen to twenty hours of sleep. Six to twelve month-old
children require sixteen to eighteen hours, and one to four year-olds need thirteen hours. From
early adulthood onwards, a typical person needs seven to eight hours of sleep a night.

1. North Americans most frequently complain about


d) insomnia.
e) physical activities.
f) drinking alcohol.

3. Finally, answer the remaining questions.

Fewer Canadians choosing marriage

Statistics Canada reports that the number of people getting married took a plunge in 1991, as 8.2
percent fewer people got married than the previous year. This is the lowest level since the 1930s. The drop
was attributed to a combination of factors, including tougher economic times, both men and women delaying
marriage until they are older, and couples choosing to live common-law relationships.

In 1991, about 726,000 Canadian couples lived common-law relationships, compared with about
487,000 in 1986.

On average, women now get married for the first time at age 26.2, compared with 22.6 in 1971. Mens
average age when they first tie the knot is 28.2, compared with 24.9 in 1971. In 1992, marriage rates
declined in all provinces, suggesting that more people may be postponing marriage while they deal with tough
economic times.

The lowest marriage rates were in the Northwest Territories at 3.9 per 1,000 people and Quebec at
4. 2. The highest were in Ontario, Alberta and British Columbia, at 7.4.

3. Objective Choice Comprehension Questions


Part A

Read the text. Complete the text by circling the most appropriate response.

The Family

The North American family is changing. In the past, grandparents, parents and children lived together. Sometimes
the family included brothers and sisters with their wives or husbands or children. There were perhaps other
relatives such as aunts and uncles. They all lived together in one house as one extended family.

Slowly the family became the nuclear family. In this family there are two parents and one or more children. In
most cases one person goes to work. Usually, it is the father. The mother stays home with the children.

Today, North American families look very different. Often both parents work and the children go to daycare
centres. Some are still extended families or nuclear families. Some are single-parent families. More and more,
families from divorces are forming new families. These blended families consist of step-children and step-parents,
as well as half-brothers and half-sisters.

1. By definition, a nuclear family consists of

a. a mother, father and children.


b. a father who works and a mother who says home with the children.
c. a husband and a wife.

2. By definition, an extended family consists of

a. grandparents and children.


b. parents, children and other relatives.
c. mother, father and son.

Read the text on tornadoes (or twisters) and answer the questions that follow.


TORNADO! TORNADO!

There will usually be rain, lightning, and even hail before a tornado hits. Descending
from a dark thunderstorm, or cumulonimbus cloud, the tornado itself is a funnel-shaped
cloud. The funnel, which resembles an elephants trunk, may extend to the ground. It
has winds that spiral upwards at terrific velocity estimated as high as 800 kilometres an
hour.

While a tornado is the most violent of storms, it does not cover a large area.
Normally, the path of destruction is only between 300 and 400 metres wide. On rare
occasions the path may be as narrow as a few metres, or as wide as two kilometres. As
a tornado moves across the land at about 70 kilometres an hour, it will cause almost total
destruction along a 15 to 60-kilometre stretch.

Although tornadoes do not occur frequently in Canada, they do appear in the


prairie provinces, southern Ontario and Quebec. The destructive effects of a tornado are
terrifying. Reduced air pressure inside the funnel causes houses to literally explode when
the storm passes directly overhead. Strong buildings are torn apart and large trees are
uprooted and broken like matchsticks. People and farm animals are whirled through the
air and bridges are ripped from their foundations. Often there is a surprisingly sharp line
dividing the area of destruction from adjacent areas of little damage.
