“Oh, you’re so lucky living in Bath, It’s such a wonderful, lovely, historical place,” people say enthusiastically, and all you can think of is the awful parking, the crowds of tourists, the expensive shops, the narrow-minded council, and the terrible traffic....
Luckily, I don’t live in Bath but nearly ten miles away in a village called Limpley Stoke in the Avon valley. It seems to be normal in the countryside these days for professional people who work in the town prefer to live in the villages, this makes the housing so expensive that the villagers and agricultural workers have to live in the cheaper accommodation in town, with the result that the farmers commute out to the farm and everyone else commutes in. Certainly, there is nobody in the village could be called an old style villager. The people nearest to me include a pilot, an accountant, a British Rail manager, a retired teacher... not a farm worker among them. But I don’t think there is anything wrong with that- it’s just that the nature of villages is changing and there is still quite a strong sense of community here. A lot of this sense of community comes from the Post Office, which is a center for all the gossip and information. I find out what is going on while I am there, pretending to control my two-year-old son. My feeling is that if my son took the money collected for the children, it would go directly where it was needed but they don’t see it like that.
Working at home I tend to wander round the village at times when other people are at the office, which has given me a reputation for being incredibly lazy or unbelievably rich but I still don’t get enough time to look after the garden we bought. My wife had a good idea for the first year. “Let’s just leave it and see what comes up” There were some nice plants among the weeds. She had a good idea for the second year as well. “Why don’t we leave it and see if it all comes up again?” We did, and that is why we need to hire a full-time gardener this year.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of thequestions.
Isn’t it amazing how much time we spend talking about food?, “Have you ever eaten......?”, “What did you have for lunch?” and so on. And yet when you travel from one country to another, you find that people have quite different feelings about food. People often feel that what they eat is normal, and that what other people eat is strange or silly.
In most part of Asia, for example, no meal is complete without rice. In England, people eat potatoes every day. In the Middle East, bread is the main part of every meal. Eating, like so many things we do, becomes a habit which is difficult to change. Americans like to drink a lot of orange juice and coffee. The English drink tea four or five times every day. Australians drink a large amount of beer, and the French drink wine every day.
The sort of meat people like to eat also differs from one country to another. Horse meat is thought to be delicious in France. In Hong Kong, some people enjoy eating snakes. Newzelanders eat sheep meat, but they never eat goat meat. The Japanese don’t like eat sheep meat because of its smell, but they enjoy raw fish.
So it seems that although eating is a topic that we can talk about for hours, there is little common sense in what we say about it. People everywhere enjoy eating what they have always been eating, and there is very little we can do to change our eating habits.
