试题分析：这篇文章主要告诉我们饮食习惯在很多国家是不同的。中国有句谚语：“早饭要吃得好，午饭要吃得饱，晚饭要吃得少。”而英国人吃午饭的时间很短。

【1】C根据上下文The Chinese have a saying “56 , eat a big meal for lunch, but eat less at dinner.”可知此句应是说中国人早餐的吃法，故选C。

【2】E根据上文People in UK do not usually have rice or noodles for breakfast.可知此句是说英国人早餐吃什么，故选E。

【3】D根据上文Most Britishpeople only give themselves a short time for lunch. 可知大多数的英国人只给他们自己很短的时间吃午饭，所以此句应是英国人吃很简单的午饭，故选D。

【4】A根据上文The evening meal is the most important meal in both countries.可知这一段是讲中英两国的晚餐的情况，所以选A。

【5】B根据下文there is one thing in common –the happiness of being with their families and loved ones. 可知此句是说虽然吃的食物不同，但有一件事情是共同的即与家人及被爱的人在一起的快乐，故选B。
