中英早餐的不同

西西

It is widely accepted that breakfast is the most important meal in the day. 早餐breakfast由break和fast两个词组成。这里的fast不是形容词“快”的意思，而是名词，意为“斋戒、禁食”，形容漫漫长夜都没有东西吃。而早上的第一餐breakfast，也有break the fast，解禁，可以吃东西的意思，this fast is broken by the first meal of the day referred to as breakfast。

England
英国人喜欢a substantial hot meal for breakfast，英国酒店餐厅的Full English Breakfast英式早餐全餐，比其他国家的正餐还要丰富，绝非只有牛角包配果酱咖啡的欧式早餐Continental Breakfast可比。这份早餐俗称the fry-up，因为里面多是煎炸的食物：香肠sausage，腌肉bacon，蘑菇mushroom，番茄tomato。除此之外，还有土司toast，英式烤饼scone，茄汁焗豆baked beans等传统食物。
吃英式早餐，鸡蛋是不能少的。鸡蛋通常有fried，scrambled，boiled和poached四种烹调方法。
Fried是煎，英国人煎蛋，通常只煎一面，蛋黄生生的，俗称“太阳蛋”，也就是美国人口中的sunny side up；Scrambled是炒；Boiled是把鸡蛋连壳直接放进水里煮，熟透的叫做hard-boiled，半熟的叫做soft-boiled；Poached是把蛋去壳后用温水煮，煮出来的蛋内生外熟，形状不一。
去饭店要鸡蛋的时候，服务员问你蛋要怎么煮，你就可以说：I'll have them scrambled, please，也可以直接说Scrambled, please。
英式早餐全餐虽然丰富好吃，但它not usually served at breakfast time during the week。许多人选择reserve the full cooked breakfast for weekends，或者干脆去café 和pub享用。饭店也是个不错的选择，因为那里的早餐quite substantial in size and variety。

哈哈~

译出来的馒头，包子很奇怪的...
