Grammar (Adjectives: Degrees of Comparison)

SIR ISAAC NEWTON DINES OFF NOTHING

Isaac Newton (1642 – 1727), the greatest scientist, was often so deep in his own thoughts that he would forget to eat his dinner unless reminded to do so.

One day a friend came to dine with him. Dinner was put on the table but Newton did not come out of his study.

His friend, who was used to Newton’s peculiar ways, sat down and waited for him. At last he decided that Newton was so deep in some new theory that he had forgotten the time.

He therefore helped himself to the chicken which was on the table. When he had finished he thought he would play a trick on his friend. He carefully put all the chicken bones back on the dish and covered them with a silver cover. Then he left Newton’s house and went about his business.

Several hours later, Newton came out of his study feeling very hungry. He saw the table set ready for dinner and sat down at his place.

When he lifted the cover and saw the bones and the remains of the chicken, he was quite surprised. He turned and looked at the clock and saw that it was long past his usual time for dinner.

“Well, well,” he said to himself, “I thought I had not yet dined, but I see I am mistaken.”

And getting up from the table, he went back to his study and began to work again, quite satisfied that he had eaten his dinner at the usual hour but had forgotten all about it.

2. Read and translate the text:

Cookery

Cookery is preparation of food for consumption. It is the oldest and most essential of all arts and crafts. Cookery appeared in time of fire making onset during the Neolithic period. Until they learned to make and control fire, humans ate their food raw, mostly wild fruits, nuts, insects, fish, and game. Before the development of pottery some 7,000 to 12,000 years ago, food was cooked by roasting it over open fire, or by wrapping it in leaves or husk and steaming it over embers. The development of pottery made possible such cooking methods as boiling, stewing, braising, frying, and baking. These techniques, in combination with the domestication of animals for their meat and milk and the cultivation of plants, opened way to modern cookery.

Cookery includes a variety of primary techniques (application of dry heat, contact with heated liquids or fats, smoking, etc.) Secondary cookery techniques range from the simplest kitchen chores to the decoration of ceremonies. But one should know not only cooking methods and kitchen utensils to master this art: physical and chemical properties of food are also of great importance. The constituents of any food are protein, fat, carbohydrates, minerals and vitamins. Each of them plays an important role in cooking: protein thickens and binds together other food materials, fats give flavour and richness to food, minerals and vitamins are necessary for people and must be preserved. Heat causes physical and chemical changes in food. It makes the flavour and digestibility of the raw product more acceptable and usually results in the loss of nutrients.

Cookery must be divided into two classes – home cooking and haute cuisine. The distinction is based on the differences between practical cooking skills and refined art.

3. Answer the following questions:

1. What is cookery?

2. What can you say about origin of cookery?

3. How did people cook before pottery was invented?

4. What major techniques of cookery do you know?

8. What techniques are called secondary?

9. What are the main physical and chemical changes caused by heat?

10. What is the difference between home cookery and haute cuisine?

 

4. Give Ukrainian equivalents of the following words and word-combinations:

5. Give English equivalents of the following words and word-combinations and make sentences of your own with them:

 

приємний, складова, білки, жири, вуглеводи, вітаміни, травлення, приємний смак, вишукана кухня, фізичні та хімічні зміни, поживні речовини, домашні обов’язки, спричиняти, дуже важливо

Roasting is the process of cooking (meat, etc.) over an open fire or in an oven.

Frying is the process of cooking in hot fat or oil.

Boiling is the process of cooking meat, fish, vegetables, fruit in water, and, consequently, suits a variety of purposes.

Stewing is a process of cooking meat which should be started in cold water, then the water must be slowly brought up to the boil but it should never boil fast.

Braising is a process of browning (meat) and then simmering slowly (Syn. stewing). Braising is stewing in a more elaborate style of cooking.

2. Read and translate the text: Cooking Techniques

Cookery involves a variety of cooking techniques that include the application of dry heat, immersion in or contact with heated liquids or fats, curing, smoking, and pickling. Cooking encompasses a vast range of methods, tools and combinations of ingredients to improve the flavour and digestibility of food. It generally requires the selection, measurement and combining of ingredients in an ordered procedure in an effort to achieve the desired result. Only a person who is aware of all these methods, loves the process of creating food and has special talents can master the art of cookery.

We differentiate between the following groups of cooking techniques: hot cooking techniques (baking, boiling, frying, microwaving, roasting, smoking and stewing) and cool preparation techniques (brining, drying, grinding, chopping, slicing, grating, marinating, mincing, pickling, salting, and seasoning).

• Boiling is the cooking of foods in a liquid at boiling point. Complex sauces and soups, some meat dishes, boiled eggs are the result of boiling. There are several liquids in which food can be boiled are: water, stock, and blanc (water with lemon and flour mixed in), court bouillon, milk. There are the following types of boiling: blanching, braising, coddling, infusion, poaching, pressure cooking, simmering, steaming, and steeping.

• Frying is the cooking of food with oil as the heat transfer medium. Due to the higher temperature of oil compared with water-based cooking, the cooking time is much shorter. Many common cooking methods involve the use of oil. But as cooks become more health conscious, preparing foods in oil has become less desirable. There are the following types of frying: deep frying, hot salt frying, hot sand frying, pan frying, pressure frying, sautéing, stir frying.

• Roasting is a cooking method that utilizes dry heat, whether an open flame, oven, or other heat source. Roasting usually causes caramelization of the surface of the food, which is considered a flavour enhancement. Meats and most root and bulb vegetables can be roasted. Any piece of meat, especially red meat, which has been cooked in this fashion, is called a roast. Vegetables and poultry prepared in this way are referred to as roasted (e.g. roasted chicken or roasted squash). Barbecuing, grilling, searing are all examples of roasting.

• Baking is the technique of cooking food in an oven by dry heat applied evenly throughout the oven. Breads, desserts, and meat are often baked, and baking is the primary cooking technique used to produce cakes and pastry-based goods such as pies, tarts, and quiches.

Success may be achieved by using the variability of ingredients, conditions, techniques and the skill of the person cooking.

A Good Job

Bill Thompson was a university graduate. That’s probably why he got a job soon after he left university. He was a barman in a private hospital for deaf and dumb. One day, or rather one evening, he wanted to go to a party and asked me to do his work.

- I’m sorry, old chap – I said – but I can’t!

- Why not? – he asked.

- You see, I don’t know the sign language.

- It’s very simple – he said – the moment you open the bar at 6 in the evening a few chaps will come in. They will make a sign to put the glasses on the table. You will take the glasses and put them on the table. Next they will make a sign to pour out whisky into the glasses and take money. If you are still worried you can have my telephone number just in case.

I could not say “no”, so I said “yes”. I opened the bar at 6 and the moment I did so six fellows walked in. They made the sign to put the glasses on the table. Next they made the sign to pour out whisky into the glasses. I did what they wanted. For the next 2 or 3 hours they kept making the sign to pour out whisky and at last they got to their feet, opened their mouths, but I couldn’t understand anything. I rushed to the telephone, dialed Bill’s number and told him about it.

- Set your mind at rest, old chap – he answered roaring with laughter – They have had too many drinks and now they are singing! The situation is perfectly regular!
