4. a. Work in pairs. Choose and read one of the following texts. What is surprising about the sandwiches?

A. Cucumber sandwiches

Cucumber sandwiches are a summer must in Britain. You need two slices of buttered white bread and thin slices of cucumber, nothing more. To be tasty they have to be done really well. Cucumbers must be peeled. Slice the cucumbers and salt them. Leave them for ten minutes to let salt take out some water from the cucumbers. Layout a few pieces of kitchen paper on the kitchen table, place the cucumber slices on them and pat dry with more paper. If you want, you can sprinkle some lemon juice on cucumber slices. White bread has to be soft – the softer, the better. Neither mayonnaise nor margarine [mɑːdʒərɪn] can be used instead of butter. You don’t need to add more salt but you can use white pepper to season your sandwiches.

B. Baked chicken sandwich

The baked chicken sandwich is a wonderful way to use up leftover cooked chicken. You can eat these sandwiches cold, or wrap them in foil and bake. First, slice some bread or cut buns into two halves. Next, spread mayonnaise on one slice or one half of each bun, and mustard on the other half. Then, slice or chop (cut) chicken and put it on one slice of bread. Add ham, a lot of your favourite cheese, and thickly sliced tomatoes. After that, you can enjoy it but… there is a better option. Wrap each sandwich tightly in foil. Preheat the oven to 180 °C and put your sandwich into the oven for 15 minutes, until the cheese melts. It tastes so much better! After cooking, put the sandwich on a plate. Cut in half with a knife. Serve it with a salad. It may be as simple as chopped cabbage or lettuce and tomatoes or cucumbers as they add freshness to the other ingredients.

Tell each other how to make the sandwich you have read about.

Change your pair. Discuss why you would like or wouldn’t like to make this sandwich.

Что удивительного в этих сэндвичах?

Ответ:

The surprising thing about the cucumber sandwich is its simplicity (just bread, butter, and cucumber) combined with a very specific and careful preparation method, including salting and drying the cucumbers. For the baked chicken sandwich, it is surprising that it is wrapped in foil and baked in an oven, turning it into a hot meal.

Перевод:

Удивительное в огуречном сэндвиче — это его простота (только хлеб, масло и огурец) в сочетании с очень специфичным и тщательным методом приготовления, включающим соление и высушивание огурцов. Что касается запечённого сэндвича с курицей, удивительно то, что его заворачивают в фольгу и запекают в духовке, превращая в горячее блюдо.
