Read the passage and choose the correct
answer.
British eating habits are different from those in China. People in the UK do not usually have rice or noodles for breakfast. They eat bread instead. Hot tea, coffee and milk are their usual breakfast drinks.
Lunch is taken later in the UK, at about 1 pm. While Chinese people like a hot, filling lunch, many British people today may just have a sandwich, especially if they work in a busy city like London.
There are also differences in the way schoolchildren eat lunch. In the past, British children ate hot lunches at school, as most children in China do now, although the food was different. Today, it is more common for British schoolchildren to bring their own lunches to school. They will usually eat a sandwich and a piece of fruit, and drink fruit juice or other soft drinks. Some children like to buy food from shops outside school, but often this is not allowed.
The evening meal is the most important meal in both countries. In China people have dinner at about 6 pm, and so do many people in the UK. In most families in the UK there’s meat with two or three vegetables and then something sweet. But in China people often have more dishes, and usually with some soup.
And of course, in both countries people look forward to their most important festivals: Christmas in the UK, and the Spring Festival in China. Although the food they eat then is different, there is one thing that people in the UK and China share —the happiness of being with their families and loved ones.
1. The best title for this passage is “______”.
a) Children’s food
b) Christmas and the Spring Festival
c) Eating habits in the UK and China

Read the passage and complete the notes about Rosie and John.
Sometimes we feel lonely even though there are lots of people around. We spoke to some young people about being lonely to find out what we can do about it.
Rosie left the primary school near her home to live at a high school two hours away by bus. It was the first time she had stayed away from her family. She did not know anyone at her new school, and she was very lonely. We asked her about it and she told us why she
felt so lonely. “I was the only person from my village at my new school and I didn’t know anyone at all. ” She explained to us what she did about it. “I decided to join some students’ clubs and take part in as many activities as I could. I introduced myself to the other students and tried not to worry. Slowly, I made friends, and now I’m so busy that I’m almost never lonely.’’
Next, we spoke to John. Last year, his family moved to a new city and he started at a new school. He told us what he did to become part of the new school by being patient when he started to worry or feel sad. ’’ It takes time to make new friends, ” he said. “At first, it’s a bit difficult to trust new people, but after a while, it gets easier.”
As these young people found out, there are things you can do to help yourself when you feel lonely. You can change your way of thinking, and you can also change what you do to help yourself.
