b) b)Explanation(10-15 Explanation(10-15 min.)

Ill explain the similarities and the differences between Romanian and English meals. The most important meals of the day are: Breakfast Lunch Dinner/ supper Ill ask the students to read the text from the textbook and we will speak about it afterwards. Romanians eat for breakfast: bread and cheese or jam and butter on bread, served with tea or coffee. Lunch is the most important meal of the day. People start with soup and follow with roast with French fries. They end with home made cakes and drink wine mixed with sparkling mineral water. At dinner, Romanians eat baked meat, meat rolls, fried eggs and others. In the evening, wine, beer or teas are drunk. The Englishmen consider that breakfast is the most important meal of the day and they eat ham and eggs or fried fish or a mutton chop or buttered toast and they drink coffee or tea. As a rule, the English dont come home for lunch. They go to a bar or a restaurant where they take a quick meal/snack. Their lunch is quite simple: a ham/ salami/ cheese sandwich, fish and chips, a piece pf cold meat, a couple of eggs, one or two rolls. Dinner usually consists of three courses: a thick or clear soup, meat, fish or poultry and vegetables, fruit and a cup of black coffee. Ill explain this to the students through a permanent dialogue and I write on the blackboard only the main ideas: Romanian Meals Breakfast: bread and cheese or jam and butter on bread; tea or coffee English meals Breakfast: the main meal of the day ham and eggs or fried fish or a mutton chop or buttered toast; tea or coffee Lunch : a ham / salami / cheese sandwich, fish and chips, a piece of
