very specific dinner: Sunday roast. This is the British name for a traditional dinner on Sundays. Britons  2__ (eat) Sunday roasts for centuries. In the old days, people had to go to church on Sunday. Afterwards, people would be hungry. So families would get together to eat a big meal.

So what is this  3  (taste) dish made of? Sunday dinner usually has roast meat, usually chicken or beef, crispy roast potatoes,  4  (fresh) boiled vegetables, and finally Yorshire pudding. This is a pidding made of batter and is a staple of the Sunday roast.

What if you don’t have any of the ingredients(原料)  5  (make) the traditional dinner?  6  to worry. In Britain, there are special restaurants, called carveries,  7  you can eat a Sunday roast. The name “carvery” comes from the act of carving the meat into slices, before putting them on a plate.

   Besides the delicious food on the plate, this meal is a great time  8  families. This is the time of the week when parents and children will sit down and tell each other about their week at work or school.

   With many traditions  9  (fade) into the background, traditional Sunday dinners are as strong as ever. And I have the feeling  10  this traditional cuisine will be on British dinner tables for decades to come.

Alice:   It is far from enough.   7   (actual), I felt a little sad as soon as I saw the joy on the children who got the pens and books.

Jimmy:  Why do you have this kind of feeling?

Alice:   As far as I am   8    (concern), these things are nothing for the children who live in our city.
