  Ann likes fish and chips. What is your favourite meal at home? Have you eaten from another country? Here is some information about some kinds of foods you might eat.

  Dumplings are eaten in different ways around the world. Chinese jaozi, Italian ravioli(菜卷) Jewish kreplach (犹太人的方形肉包) and Polish pierogi(馅饼) are kinds of dumplings filled with meat, cheese or vegetables.

  Pizza, an international favourite came from the city of Naples, Italy about 700 years ago. Pizza is the Italian word for pie, so you don't need to say pizza pie.

  Hamburger was first called Hamburg steak. Later, people just called them hamburgers. The hamburger was named after the city of Hamburg, Germany.

  Frankfurters were named after the city of Frankfurt, Germany. About 1900, an American selling cooked frankfurters called them hot dogs because they looked like a kind of small dog.

  Ice-cream cones were first sold at the World's Fair (博览会) in St. Louis Missouri, in the USA, in 1904. A scoop (圆勺) of ice cream was put into a cone(圆锥形之物). You eat the ice cream, then you eat the cone-nothing left to throw away.

  Sandwiches were named after the Earl of Sandwich, a rich man in England in the 1705. While he was playing cards, he asked a servant(佣人) to bring him two piece of bread with a piece of meat between them. This was the first sandwich.

  Most lungfish live in Africa, where they are found in shallow lakes and rivers. Sometimes, very little rain falls. Then, the shallow lakes and rivers dry up, and the other fish in the river die. What happens to a lungfish? It curls up into a ball in the mud at the bottom of the lake or river. Then, it be gins to breathe with its lungs instead of its gills.

  If necessary, a lungfish can live this way for as long as three or fouur years. When the rains come, the lungfish straightens itself out. And it begins swimming around in the water again-almost as if nothing had happened!
