| What do you usually have for breakfast?

| Well, as a rule, I don’t feel hungry early in the morning, so I usually have a light breakfast: just a sandwich with cheese or sausage and a cup of strong tea with lemon. What about you?
|
| A.
| Oh, I am a hearty eater, and I always have a big breakfast. I begin with a plate of porridge, then I eat bacon and eggs, after which I have a cup of tea with a piece of cake or some cookies. I like my tea with a lot of sugar.

| Now, let’s see. Let’s start from the appetizers. I would take a herring and some pickled cucumbers. For the first course I’d like a red-beet soup. And for the second course I’d take a beefsteak in mushroom sauce and baked potatoes.
|
| Waiter:
| How do you prefer the beefsteak, sir? Rare, medium-rare or well-done?

| I would have the veal with the special white sauce. It comes with French fried potatoes.

| O. K. I’ll take it. As to the vegetables, would you bring me some green peas?
|

| Of course. Would you like something to drink?

| I’ll have the same.
