雅思考試的一個(gè)目的是測(cè)試考生在英語(yǔ)國(guó)家的生存能力，所以考題中有很大一部分都是生活場(chǎng)景，和人們的衣食住行密不可分，都是我們?cè)诋悋?guó)他鄉(xiāng)的生活中一定會(huì)經(jīng)歷的。所以在口語(yǔ)考試中會(huì)有食物烹飪這個(gè)類別的考題。無(wú)論今后在海外的生活中是要買菜、點(diǎn)餐還是做飯，食物的名稱都是需要了解的。那么我們今天就一起來(lái)盤點(diǎn)一下平時(shí)我們餐桌上的豐盛美味吧。

staple food是我們一日三餐中最重要的，在中國(guó)，南方人喜歡吃rice，而北方人則習(xí)慣吃corn, barley, wheat它們都是grain為我們的身體提供能量。隨著人們?cè)絹?lái)越注重營(yíng)養(yǎng)，中國(guó)人的早餐桌上也開(kāi)始出現(xiàn)cornflake, whole-wheat bread, croissant, toast, doughnut，而不是傳統(tǒng)的porridge。這些都是西方人常吃的，他們還特別鐘愛(ài)pastry。

除了主食之外美味的各色菜肴會(huì)給人們提供各種身體所需的營(yíng)養(yǎng)。其中蔬菜一直是健康食物的首選，人們菜籃子里常見(jiàn)的蔬菜有cabbage, spinach, lettuce, celery, radish, carrot, cauliflower, eggplant, cucumber, mushroom, fungus, tomato, potato, onion。
