　　English breakfast is a very big meal－eggs, tomatoes, tea, coffee…

　　For many people lunch is a quick meal．In cities there are a lot of sandwich bars, where office workers can buy the kind of bread they want－brown, white, or a roll－and then all kinds of salad and meat or fish to go in the sandwich．School children can have a hot meal at school．But many just take a sandwich, a drink and some fruit from home．

　　“Tea”means two things．It is a drink and a meal! Some people have afternoon tea, with sandwiches, cakes and a cup of tea．

　　They usually have the evening meal quite early, between 6∶00 and 8∶00, and often all the family eats together．

　　On Sundays many families have a traditional(傳統(tǒng)的)lunch．They have beef, chicken, or pork with potatoes(馬鈴薯)and vegetables．

　　A snake is a strange animal．It walks on its ribs(肋骨)and it smells with its tongue．

　　Since its teeth are sharp like needles and not good for chewing(咀嚼), it swallows its food whole．The snake's jaw(顎)can stretch(拉伸)a great deal．Its body, too, can stretch to several times its normal size．So even a small snake can easily swallow a mouse whole, and a snake just an inch across can gulp(吞)down a young bird three inches across．Such a large meal might last the snake for months．In fact, some snakes have been known to go without eating for as long as two years．
