Английские традиции – English Traditions
Каждая страна и каждая нация имеют свои традиции и свои обычаи. Нельзя говорить об Англии, не говоря об ее традициях и обычаях. Англичане гордятся своими традициями и всячески поддерживают их. Англичане – домоседы. “Нет места, подобного дому”, – говорят они. Когда они не работают, они любят проводить выходные дни дома с семьей. Англичане очень любят камины, поэтому многие из них предпочитают открытый огонь центральному отоплению. Они любят жить в небольших домах с маленьким садом.

В некоторых английских домах ланч – самый большой прием пищи за день – они едят мясо или рыбу, овощи, фрукты или пудинг. Днем, во “время чая”, англичане любят выпить чашечку чая с молоком. Некоторые
<strong>Перевод на английский:</strong>
Every country and every nation has its own customs and traditions. You cannot speak about England without speaking about its traditions and customs. Englishmen are proud of their traditions and carefully keep them up. The English are stay-at-home people. “There is no place like home,” they say. When they don’t work they like to spend their days off at home with their families. Englishmen are very fond of fire-places, that’s why many of them prefer the open fire to central heating. They like to live in small houses with a small garden. People all over the world know the saying “The Englishman’s home is his castle”. They say that English people keep to their traditions even in meals. Porridge is the dish Englishmen are very fond of. Many of them eat porridge with milk and sugar for breakfast. As for the Scots, for example, they never put sugar in their porridge, they always put salt in it. By the way, breakfast time in England is between seven and nine. Then, between 12 and 2 there comes lunch time. In some English houses lunch is the biggest meal of the day – they have meat or fish, vegetables, fruit or pudding. In the afternoon, at tea-time the English like to have a cup of tea with milk. Some Englishmen have their dinner late in the evening. For dinner they have soup, fish or meat, vegetables, pudding or fruit. For supper they usually have a glass of milk and a cake or a cup of tea and a sandwich. The English are tea-drinkers. They have it many times a day. Some Englishmen have tea for breakfast, tea in lunch time, tea after dinner, tea at tea-time and tea with supper. Some English families have “high tea” or big tea and no supper. For high tea they may have cold meat, bread and butter, cakes, and, of course, a lot of tea. The Englishmen always drink tea out of cups, never out of glasses.
