Las bebidas, en principio, son incontables y, por lo tanto, no usamos a / an con ellas.

podemos utilizar a / an antes de las bebidas para referirnos al recipiente. Por ejemplo,
podemos decir “a coffee” (un café) para referirnos a “a cup of coffee” (una taza de

What is a typical English breakfast?

People around the world think a typical English breakfast is a full English breakfast: eggs, bacon, sausages, fried
bread, tomatoes and baked beans with a cup of coffee. But from Mondays to Fridays a
typical British breakfast is usually a bowl of cereal, toast, orange juice and a cup of
coffee. British people only have a traditional English breakfast at the weekend.

What is a typical British lunch?

Children at school and adults at work have a 'packed lunch': usually a
sandwich, a packet of crisps, a piece of fruit and a drink. Some people say
'butty' or 'sarnie' for a sandwich.
Sunday lunch time is a typical time to eat the traditional Sunday Roast (roast meat), two different
kinds of vegetables and potatoes with a Yorkshire pudding.

What is a typical British dinner?

A typical British dinner is “meat and two veg". One of the vegetables is potatoes.
But this traditional meal is rare today! Most people in Britain eat curry. Rice or pasta is now the typical British
Dinner.

(Noticias. Las aldeas del Reino Unido ¿Vives en una aldea? ¿Viven tus padres en una aldea?
desaparecen). No. Vivo en una ciudad. Sí.
¿Viven los británicos en ciudades o en

Al igual que en la forma negativa, para las preguntas necesitamos el auxiliar do. El
orden en la forma interrogativa será el siguiente:

 Forma interrogativa: Do + sujeto + verbo en infinitivo? (Do you live in a village?)

En inglés, no podemos responder únicamente con yes o no. Usaremos la respuesta

corta. En ella, utilizaremos el sujeto y el auxiliar en afirmativo (do) cuando la respuesta
es afirmativa (Yes), y el auxiliar en negativo (don’t) cuando la respuesta es negativa
(No).
 Respuesta corta afirmativa: Yes, sujeto + do (Yes, I do).

 Respuesta corta negativa: No, sujeto + don’t (No, I don’t).

Aunque en la pregunta el sujeto sea un nombre propio (Tom) o un grupo nominal

(your parents), en las respuestas cortas el sujeto siempre será un pronombre
personal.
 Do your parents live in a city? No, they don’t. 

 Do your parents live in a city? No, my parents don’t.

Christmas is a great celebration all over the world. It is a time for family and friends, presents, special meals and happiness.
How do people celebrate Christmas in the UK?
Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving day, is the beginning of the Christmas shopping season.
Weeks before Christmas Day people decorate their houses with a Christmas tree, stockings and mistletoe. Mistletoe brings
good luck and people kiss friends and family under the mistletoe. It’s very common to send cards
and sing Christmas carols. Some popular carols are “We wish you a merry Christmas” and “Silent
Night”.
At Christmas we say “Merry Christmas and Happy New Year”.
On Christmas Eve, Father Christmas visits houses with his reindeers and his sleigh. He leaves presents for the children in
their stockings.
On Christmas Day, children open their presents and families have lunch together. The traditional
Christmas Dinner is roast turkey with carrots, potatoes, peas and Brussels sprouts. After the
turkey, people have a Christmas pudding. Mince pies are also very popular.
A cracker is an important Christmas tradition in the UK. Two people pull a cracker. Crackers have
a small toy and a joke inside.
On Christmas Day at three o'clock in the afternoon, the Queen makes a speech on the radio and TV.
Boxing Day is on 26th December. In the past it was a tradition to give Christmas boxes
with presents to the poor people. Now people go shopping and watch football matches.
In London on New Year’s Eve, many people go to Trafalgar Square and at midnight they
all hold hands and sing the Scottish song “Auld Lang Syne” (“The good old days”). TV and
radio stations broadcast Big Ben when it strikes twelve and, when people hear it, they
drink a toast to the New Year. People often make New Year’s resolutions or promises for the New Year.

At Christmas the British decorate their houses with _______ (1), _______ (2) and _______ (3). They send _______ (4) and
sing _______ (5). On Christmas Day _______ (6) comes and leaves _______ (7).
