Listen to the text “Food And Drinks”

 You all know that the hot dog is one of the most popular foods in the world. It looks very simple-just a sausage put between the two parts of a long bun. It is a very tasty and fast snack. It first appeared in Germany where sausages are national food. People wanted to be able to have a sausage on a piece of bread, and so the hot dogs came to life. At first they were not called “hot dogs”. They had a German name after a dog with a very long body and very short legs. An American once drew a cartoon about those sausages for a newspaper. He did not know how to spell the German word, so he called that sausage “a hot dog”. The name has become very popular, and we have known this tasty food as “hot dogs” since then.

  Task 1. Match the words with their equivalents.
