John, a friend of mine, is a college student. Last summer, he went to Italy and stayed there for two months. I was surprised that he could have such a long holiday. “How did you manage it, John?” I asked, “I thought that you were going to stay there for two weeks.”

“It was easy,” John answered, “I got a job there.”

“A job? ” I said in surprise. “What did you do?”

“I gave English lessons to a shopkeeper,” John said.

“But you are not a teacher,” I said

“I told the shopkeeper I couldn’t teach,” John said, “ but he just wanted me to talk with him in English. He asked me to talk to him three hours a day. In return he gave me a room, three meals a day and a little pocket money.”

“No, I don’t know,” John said, “but I learned a lot of Italian.”

As a nation, the British are not interested in restaurants. Most of the British have breakfast, lunch, tea or supper at home as much as they can.

　 The evening meal, between five and seven o’ clock, is probably their dinner. It’s a big meal called high tea. There are various foods on the table. In Scotland they often have meal salads. They drink tea all the meal. And if this “high tea” isn’t enough, they have a fourth meal, supper, at about nine o’clock. This might be fish and chip.
