雅思雙語(yǔ)閱讀：英國(guó)飲食文化早餐篇

　　Today people in the UK eat a more varied diet than ever before. As well as the regional diets of England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland the many immigrant communities have introduced their cuisines to the previously unadventurous Britons: Chinese, Greek, Indian, Italian, Thai, American fast foods such as pizza, hamburgers and fried chicken have to some extent displaced the traditional fast food of fish and chips.

Over Britain as a whole, however, the traditional drink is tea.

　　今天我們來(lái)詳細(xì)介紹一下英國(guó)的早餐。

　　英國(guó)人喝早餐茶的習(xí)慣事實(shí)上是英國(guó)長(zhǎng)久以來(lái)的傳統(tǒng)。只是英國(guó)早餐茶這一說(shuō)法卻不是從英國(guó)而來(lái)的，而是從殖民地時(shí)期從美國(guó)而來(lái)。

　　English Breakfast tea is a black tea blend usually described as full-bodied, robust, and/or rich, and blended to go well with milk and sugar, in a style traditionally associated with a hearty English breakfast. It is the most common style of tea in Britain.
