The Hamburger
The hamburger has no connection to ham. It got its name from the German town of Hamburg, which was famous for its ground steak. German immigrant to the United States introduced the "hamburger steak".
At the St. Lois World's Fair in 1904, hamburger steaks were served on buns for the first time. Hamburgers on buns were convenient and tasted good. This became the usual way of eating hamburgers.
How did the hamburgers become the most popular, most typical American food? The introduction of the bun is an important part of the answer. Another important part is McDonald's, the fast-food restaurant.
The first McDonald's was opened in San Bernadino, California, in 1949. Hamburgers were the main item on its menu. People liked the restaurants fast-service. By the 1960's there were many McDonald's restaurants. McDonald's was a part of nearly every community in the United States. There were also other fast-food restaurants that sold hamburgers. McDonald's alone sold millions of hamburgers a year.
Today, of course, there are McDonald's restaurants around the world. The food they serve is considered typically American. And, although McDonald's has expanded its menu, the main item on that menu is - as always - the hamburgers. (H04); Listen to the text and circle the letter of the best answer.

About American's Food
American food is part British, part Italian, part German, part Mexican, part Chinese, part Ukrainian... When people from other countries came to live the USA, they brought different cooking traditions. Some of then opened restaurants and food stores, and today Americans enjoy food all over the words.
The USA is famous for "fast food". The first food restaurants served hamburgers, but now they serve other kinds of food as well. Many fast food restaurants have a drive-in section. Here you can order and pick up your food without even getting out of your car! Inside there is a "salad bar", where you can help yourself to as much salad as you want.
Americans eat out a lot, and when they go to a restaurant, they don't expect to be hungry afterwards. Most restaurants will put a lot of food on your plate - sometimes it can too much. But if you can't finish it all, don't worry: the waiter will bring you a "doggy bag" and you can take it home with you.

Eating Out
Aims and objectives:
* to develop socio-cultural competence;
* to develop basic skills.
Sequence
1. Warm up
The teacher tells the students they are now ready to go to eat out and in this respect they have to revise the rules of proper table behavior. The students present their rules of behavior.
2. Introducing the topic
a) Vocabulary and socio-cultural competence. The teacher asks if the students have any experience of eating out and elicits the names of restaurants attended. Then those restaurants are categorized in a class discussion (target answer to get fast food and regular restaurants). The teacher asks to find the basic difference (if the students feel trouble finding necessary words, they may use heir native language to a certain extent. The main issue is that everybody understood the difference). After the teacher is sure everybody has got the idea, he introduces the new vocabulary: waiter, waitress, bill, pay, order, service, counter, tip by presenting two short dialogues that take place in the two types of restaurants:
Dialogue 1
A. Can I help you? B. Yes, please. A double cheeseburger, middle fries, ketchup and a large Coke. A. Good. Eating here ? B. Yes. A: That's 10.25. B. Here you are. A. Thank you. Your 15, and this is your 4.75 change. And this is your order. Enjoy your meal. B. Thanks. Do I have to leave any tip? A. No, thank you. We do not get tips in " fast food places.
Dialogue 2
A. Good evening. What would you like to have today? B. What's your special
today? A. Chicken noodles. B. OK, then let's start with green salad. A. Dressing?
B. Italian. And your special. A. Yes, sir. Any dessert? B. No, thanks. Just coffee. A. Coffee goes free in this place. Do you prefer regular or caffeine-free ? B. Regular, please. A. Sure. Your order will be ready in just a few minutes.
The students discuss the difference between the two restaurants and give the examples from their own experience.
b) Role play. The teacher prepares a set of cards for the students who will act as customers with the types of food to order in a fast food place. Other cards are blank, those who get them will act as shop-assistants. It may be a good idea to actually replicate McDonald's with a lot of shop-assistants serving a lot of customers. The idea is to practice not only the vocabulary but also the cultural awareness. For this the teacher should explain that-in the United States unlike Ukraine dressings like ketchup, mayo and mustard go free and that they serve fried onion rings as a variant of siding to be taken with a sandwich.

English Tea
Tea in England is a suitable occasion for social intercourse, when people often come in for over their cup of tea. There are two kinds of tea, "afternoon tea" and "high tea".
"Afternoon tea" takes place between three-thirty and four-thirty and consists of tea; bread, butter and jam, followed by cakes and biscuits. "High tea", however, is a substantial meal and eaten between five-thirty and six- thirty by families which do not usually have a late dinner. In a well-to-do family it will consist of ham or tongue and tomatoes and salad, or a kipper, tinned salmon, with strong tea, bread and butter, followed by stewed fruit, or tinned pears, apricots or pine-apple with cream or custard and cake.
Tea making in England is an art. The hostess first of all rinses the teapot with boiling water (this is called "warming the pot") before adding four or five teaspoonfuls of tea. The amount of tea varies, of course, according to the number of people present. The pot is then filled with boiling and covered by a tea-cosy to allow the tea to infuse for five minutes. English people seldom put lemon juice or rum in their tea, usually they have it with milk.
Britons are the world's greatest tea drinkers. They drink a quarter of all the tea grown in the world each year. Many of them drink it at least eight different occasions during the day. They drink it between meals and at meals. They drink it early-morning tea in bed. Some early-morning tea-drinkers have automatic tea-making machines connected to their alarm clocks.

LESSON PROCEDURE
I. Beginning of the lesson
1. Warm-up
T. Good afternoon. I'm glad to see you again. Did you have a good rest on Sunday? And I was invited to the birthday party by my friend. I had a good time. Do you enjoy parties? You see, the English like their traditional tea parties. Let's try to have a tea-party and enjoy a cup of tea and communicating.
I want you to remember some rules which will make our party interesting and favourable for communication and getting to know lots of unusual and interesting things about traditional tea parties in England and about some other peculiar traditions of Great Britain. So, remember: Politeness costs little but docs much.
Use the following polite formulas while communicating: Here you are. Will you pass me the sugar? Shall I pour some tea into your cup? Help yourself to the biscuits, etc.
You should also observe table manners and those of communication, shouldn't you?
2. Brainstorm
1) T. What does it mean: "So many countries — so many customs"?
II. Main Part 1. Speaking
PI. You know it's a good old tradition of British people to have tea-parties on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays. They invite their good friends, relatives to the parties to have a good time drinking tea and communicating, having a nice time. They all take much delight in having tea-parties.
Really, it's so pleasant to hear, "What about a cup of tea?" when you are depressed, tired, when you badly need communication with others.
And you take a sip of hot strong tea and in a blink you find yourself in the world of tea.
Yes... "you at last entered the world of tea..." (Yuan Mei, Chinese poet, 1716-1798) P2, As William Gladstone said, "Heated, it will cool you, if you are depressed, it will cheer you; if you are exhausted, it will calm you".
And the English do realize the meaning of the Japanese proverb:" If man has no tea in him, he is incapable for understanding truth and beauty". P3. They often say, "Tea! What greater thing is there than a proper cup of tea?"
T. Let's hear what the English are talking about at their tea-parties.
Some pupils tell about the very importance of tea and tea parties. They are the English and they tell their Ukrainian guests about it.
PI. Oh, the tea-party is a spa for the soul. And it's worth drinking. I leave my cares and work behind. I forget about my business which is full of problems. And I really relax. P2. Right you are. I can't help having tea. My stress melts away, 'my senses awaken. P3. Tea tempers my spirits, awakens my thoughts.
P4. And I can't imagine my life without tea. It refreshes my mind and body. Ps. I always look forward to the tea-party which creates a favourable atmosphere and establishes a warm climate.
P6.1 greatly enjoy tea parties. It's a wonderful world of communication, it's a good way of having a nice time, isn't it? It goes without saying tea is worth drinking. P7. Guests are invited to a formal tea-party by a formal written invitations, but not printed, on a fine white paper. They should be received two weeks in advance of the event. The invitation is expressed in the third person. Here is the example of an invitation to a tea-party:
Mr and Mrs John Doe request the pleasure of Mr and Mrs Smith's company at the tea-party on Sunday, December the twenty-first at 5 p. m. 27 Main Street P8. And what do we need to lay the table when we are going to have the tea-party?
We need a table-cloth, a table-mat, napkins, cups and saucers. Of course, we don't forget about tea-spoons. We put a teapot in the middle of the table, a sugar basin at it. Sliced lemon, jam, cheese, biscuits, scones, fruit, cakes are served. (The things mentioned are on the table.)
P9. And everybody in our country knows how to make English tea: fill the kettle with cold water, boil the water. Then warm the pot. Put one teaspoon-ful of tea in the pot for each person and one extra for the pot. Pour hot water into the pot. Enjoy your tea!
P10. And we can tell you how to make tasty scones which are traditional when having a tea party.
For scones you need 350 gr of flour, 1 teaspoonful of baking powder, 75 gr of butter, 1 cup of milk, 1 teaspoonful of sugar, 1 teaspoonful of salt, 1 table-spoonful of raisins, 1 egg. Mix the flour and baking powder. Add the butter, sugar, raisins, an egg and milk. Roll out the pastry to about 1 cm thick. Cut into rounds. Bake 15-20 minutes in a hot oven. Enjoy your scones! Here you have the recipe, dear guests, and help yourselves to these scones. (The scones are on the table,)
Pll. We, the English, are great lovers of tea and tea-parties. And we know much about tea. There are three types of tea: black, green, oolong. They differ in the method used to process the leaves. All tea producing countries manufacture black tea. Most of the green and oolong tea comes from China, Japan and Taiwan.
P12. Great Britain imports the greatest amount of tea — about 400 million pounds (180 mill kg) annually. On the average, about 7 pounds (3.2 kg) of tea are consumed per person each year.
2. Conversation At the Tea-Party"
The English, the guests from Ukraine are sitting at the table and having tea.
a) — Would you like a cup of tea, please?
— Yes, please. But no sugar.
— Here you are, a cup of tea. Help yourself to biscuits, scones, please.
b) —Would you like another cup of tea?
— Yes, please,
c) — Do you enjoy having tea?
— Certainly. It refreshes my mind and body, it tempers my spirit.
— Yes, tea is a doing thing. So let's have a cup of tea.
d) — A cup of tea, please.

— Me too. Help yourself to the cakes, scones, cheese, will you?
— Thank you. Would you pass me the sugar?

PI. I always drink much tea and so do people in my country. I can't help admiring drinking it. Tea makes me relax and feel happy.
P2. Yes, English people are great lovers of tea. They drink it not only at tea parties. They enjoy having it in the morning, in the evening. And instead of dinner many English people have high tea or tea as it is often simply called. They usually drink two or more cups of tea at this meal. The time for high tea is between six and seven o'clock.
P3. Seven cups of tea wake you up in the morning; nine cups will put you to sleep at night. If you are hot, tea will cool you off, and if you are cold, it will warm you up. If you take it in the middle of the morning, it will stimulate you for further work; if you drink it in the afternoon, it will relax you for further thought. Then, of course, you should drink lots of it in off-hours. In our country we say jokingly, "The test of good tea is simple. If a spoon stands up in it, then it is strong enough; if the spoon starts to wobble, it is a feeble makeshift".
P4.I consider it's a good tradition in our country to enjoy tea at the tea parties. We are great experts of tea. But listen to a very interesting story connected with this problem: Every morning we like to begin our day with a cup of tea at breakfast time. But more than three hundred years ago most of the people of Europe didn't know anything about tea. There is a story about an English sailor who went to the countries in the east, the west and the south. He was in India and China. One day he came home and brought some tea as a present for his mother. She told her friends about the present and asked them to a "tea-party". When her friends came to the "tea-party", the old woman brought in a large plate and put it in the middle of the table. There were a lot of brown tea-leaves on it. The old woman's friends began to eat them. Of course, nobody liked the tea-leaves. At that time the sailor came in. He looked at the table and said, "Mother, what did you do with the tea?"
"I boiled it, as you said". "And what did you do with the water?" "I threw it away, of course", answered the old woman.; "Now you may throw away the leaves, too", said her son.
This story shows that people in England knew very little about tea at that time. T. It's really interesting to hear such a funny story. I'm so happy to enjoy communication with you. (She is also one of the guests from Ukraine.)
It's a good tradition with you to have tea-parties. I wish we had such a tradition in my country, Ukraine. It would be great to have tea instead of alcohol Of course, we also drink tea, but it's no a tradition, it hasn't become a tradition to have tea-parties which do much.
Yes, it's really so. So many countries -so many customs.
P14. And British traditions are rather unusual. If you arrive in GB, you'll hear the word "tradition" everywhere. English people have a sentimental love of things and traditions because they are old.
P15. In English homes the fireplace h: always been the centre of interest: a room. For many months of a year people enjoy sitting round the fire and watch the dancing flames.
P16. And some of the English custom are strange. People do not shake hands much as people do in Europe. M raise their hats to women but not each other.
P17. When we go to a friend's house' dinner, or a tea-party, it's not a custom to say "Thank you" at the end of dinner as in your country. You wait і till you are leaving, then you say, "Thank you for inviting me".

Meals in Britain
The usual meals are breakfast, lunch, tea and dinner.
A traditional English breakfast is a very big meal - sausages, bacon, eggs, tomatoes, mushrooms... But nowadays many people keep healthy lifestyle and just have cereal with milk and sugar, or toast with marmalade, jam or honey. Marmalade and jam are not the same. Marmalade is made from oranges and jam is made from other fruit. The traditional breakfast drink is tea, which people have with cold milk. Some people have coffee, often instant coffee, which is made with just hot water. Many visitors to Britain find this coffee horrible.
For many people lunch is a quick meal. In cities there are a lot of sandwich bars, where office workers can choose the kind of bread they want, and then all sorts of salad and meat or fish to go in the sandwich. School-children can have a hot meal at school, but many just take a snack from home - a sandwich, a drink, some fruit, and perhaps some crisps.
