How the Sandwich Came to the World. In 1762, there was a very famous English politician. Everybody knew about him because he enjoyed playing cards very much. One night he stayed at the card table for 24 hours. And he ate nothing but slices of bread with pieces of meat inside. His name was John Sandwich. The English name for a sandwich comes from this man. Sandwiches were great favourites in Victorian England. It was the custom to “take” afternoon tea at about four o’clock. Many rich families ate sandwiches at that time. Cucumber sandwiches were very popular. The servants always cut the edge of the bread, so the sandwiches were very small and delicate. Sandwiches are less elegant now and often much bigger. The English eat millions of sandwiches every day. They are a typical “snack” meal because they are easy and quick to prepare. You can buy sandwiches if you don’t want to make them yourself. There are thousands of “sandwiches bars” and cafés and even some restaurants that sell them.
Some sentences are true (T) according to the text, some sentences are false (F) and some information (SI) is not given in the text. Try to decide. Sandwich is the name of a person. A well-known politician invented sandwiches. His hobby was playing cards. He ate sandwiches every day. His wife liked sandwiches, too. In Victorian English families ate sandwiches during the tea time. Sandwiches are smaller now than they were before. If you can’t make sandwiches, you can buy them. Sandwiches are easy to cook. Sandwiches can be hot. TFNITTFTFFT
Countable nouns are nouns which we can counte. g. one apple – two apples Uncountable nouns are nouns which we cannot counte. g. some coffee, some cheese Uncountable nouns have only singular forms. These forms include: Food: butter, flour, salt, pepper, bread Liquid: tea, water, milk, coffee, juice, lemonade
We use some in the affirmative with plural countable nouns and with uncountable nouns.e. g. We need some pears and some milk. Note: We use some in the interrogative for offers or requests.e. g. Would you like some cake? (offer)e. g. Can I have some orange juice? (request)We use a/an in all forms (affirmative, negative and interrogative) with countable nouns in the singular.e. g. There is a man. There isn’t an orange. Is there a car?
We use any in the negative and the interrogative with both countable nouns in the plural, and uncountable nouns.e. g. Are there any apples in the fridge? There isn’t any lemonade. We use how much with uncountable to ask about amount of something. A: How much sugar do you want?B: A kilo. (= amount)We use how many with countable nouns to ask about the number of things. A: How many brothers do you have?B: Two. (=number)
