Dear Sir/Madam, I and my friend visited your restaurant yesterday to celebrate the beginning of our vacation. Unfortunately, the substandard food served in your restaurant really dampened our spirits. Firstly, I ordered salad, but it was not fresh. Furthermore, the vegetables had not been washed. I found pieces of dirt on the lettuce leaves. Then, I was served a really tasteless steak. It was tough and chewy. I called the waiter to bring me new steak. After waiting, the waiter finally came and gave me a new steak. To my astonishment, it was as bad as the first one. As if that was not bad enough, when I decided to eat my apple pie, I found out that it was stale and dry. Once again, I called waiter, but he claimed that it had been freshly made that morning. As you can imagine, I was extremely upset by the treatment I
source of protein than meat. It is maintained that such foods are low in fat and cholesterol, therefore promoting better health. Finally, by avoiding meat, vegetarians believe they are not eating contaminated food which is often a source of many illnesses. On the other hand, some people feel that being a vegetarian also has disadvantages. For example, such a diet can be boring and tasteless. Moreover, the choice of food available is often limited when eating out. In addition, not eating meat can often lead to deficiency in iron and protein which can result in serious health problems. Finally, humans evolved as meateaters, therefore, by not eating meat they might be affecting their very nature. To sum up, I believe it is a matter of personal opinion whether or not someone eats meat. People are free to decide on their own eating patterns as long as they stay healthy.
Meals and Cooking When we cook, we boil, roast, fry or stew our food. We boil eggs, meat, chicken, fish, milk, water and vegetables. We fry eggs, fish and vegetables. We stew fish, meat, vegetables or fruit. We roast meat or chicken. We put salt, sugar, pepper, vinegar and mustard into our food to make it salted, sweet, sour or simply tasty. Our food may taste good or bad or it may be tasteless. The usual meals in England are breakfast, lunch, tea and dinner or, in simpler houses, breakfast, dinner, tea and supper. For breakfast English people mostly have porridge or cornflakes with milk or cream and sugar, bacon and eggs, marmalade with buttered toast and tea or coffee. For a change they can have a boiled egg, cold ham, or fish. English people generally have lunch about one o'clock. At lunch time in a London restaurant one
Extraction Neon can be obtained from air by fractional distillation(murdosaline destilatsioon). The first step in fractional distillation of air is to change a container of air to a liquid. The liquid air is then allowed to warm up. As the air warms, each element in air changes from a liquid back to a gas at a different temperature. The portion of air that changes back to a gas at -245.92°C is neon. Physical properties(omadused) Neon is a colorless, odorless(lõhnatu), tasteless gas. It changes from a gas to a liquid at -245.92°C and from a liquid to a solid(tahke) at -248.6°C. Chemical properties NEON Neon is chemically inactive. So far, it has been impossible to make neon react with any other element or compound. Uses Neon has relatively few uses. The best known use of neon gas is in neon lights. Today, neon signs of every color, shape, and size exist. A neon light consists of a glass tube filled with neon or some other inert gas
Slide 1 Good morning/afternoon/evening! My name is //////// and my topic is food microstructure and starch digestion. The presentation is approximately 7-10 minutes long and I will be glad to answer your questions at the end. Slide 2 Starch is important carbohydrate in human diet containing in potatoes, maize, rice, cassava. It is produced by most green plants as energy source. Pure starch is a white, tasteless and odorless powder that is insoluble in cold water or alcohol. It consists of two types of molecules: the linear and helical amylose and the branched amylopectin. Depending on the plant, starch generally contains 20 to 25% amylose and 75 to 80% amylopectin by weight. Glycogen, the glucose store of animals, is a more highly branched version of amylopectin. In industry, starch is converted into sugars, for example by malting,
The problems included poor education system for children(teachers uninspired and low paid, children weren't taught reading and writing), physically demanding jobs(breaking rocks and so on; very detrimental to health) and long, 10-hour workdays; women, children and men had different living and working areas in the workhouse, so families were split up. To make things even worse they could be punished if they even tried to speak to one another! The food was tasteless and the same day after day. Children could also find themselves 'hired out' (sold) to work in factories or mines. At the end of 19th century, people started realizing that workhouses are terrible places and they were improved greatly(better healthcare, different rules to working and people who are accomodated) Life of women Women were supposed to stay at home and look after the children and house. Women didn't have many rights that they do nowadays. They couldn't: own property

can't stay in this dark tower much longer." Susanna smiled and bowed her curly red-haired head. She was very happy to join the rest of the castle again. After eating the candy, Misery felt very tired. But instead of heading to the bedroom, she opened her wide white wings and flew out to the royal park. The day was warm and sunny; in the gardens many flowers had started their colourful blooming, decorating tasteless gravy castle walls. Misery landed on the juicy green grass and looked up in the light blue sky and soundless tears fell down her pale cheeks: this was the sky the previous queen and her mother had liked. She thought of them and warm memories just ran into her head, making her cry sound even more heart-breaking. Fortunately, she thought, no one was there to see her. But she miscalculated. The same moment a fine-looking young blonde man came out from the bushes. His eyes

British Cuisine Some people criticize English food. They say it's unimaginable, boring, tasteless, it's chips with everything and totally overcooked vegetables. The basic ingredients, when fresh, are so full of flavour that British haven't had to invent sauces to disguise their natural taste. What can compare with fresh pees or new potatoes just boiled and served with butter? Why drown spring lamb in wine or cream and spices, when with just one or two herbs it is absolutely delicious? If you ask foreigners to name some typically English dishes, they will probably say

on land but many are offshore, deep in the ocean. Once the gas is found, it flows up through the well to the surface of the ground and into large pipelines. Some of the gases that are produced along with methane, such as butane and propane (also known as 'by- products'), are separated and cleaned at a gas processing plant. The by-products, once removed, are used in a number of ways. For example, propane can be used for cooking on gas grills. Because natural gas is colorless, odorless and tasteless, mercaptan (a chemical that has a sulfur like odor) is added before distribution, to give it a distinct unpleasant odor (smells like rotten eggs). This serves as a safety device by allowing it to be detected in the atmosphere, in cases where leaks occur. 56 Most of the natural gas consumed in the United States is produced in the United States. Some is imported from Canada and shipped to the United States in pipelines. Increasingly
Proper names: Direct Reference and the CausalHistorical Theory 59 to the same natural kind in every world in which that kind has membership. And some version of the CausalHistorical Theory characterizes their refer- ring use. This view sharply opposed a long-held Descriptivist theory of naturalkind terms, which associated each such term with a descriptive stereotype. For example, "water" would have been analyzed as meaning something like "a clear, odorless, tasteless potable liquid that falls from the sky as rain and fills lakes and streams," and "tiger" as something like "a ferocious, carnivorous jungle feline, tawny with distinctive black stripes." Kripke and Putnam urged modal arguments against such analyses, similar to objection 3 from the pre- vious chapter and to the rigidity argument that began this one. For example, there could have been water even if there had never been rain, lakes or streams,
