Dirty Beards

1 A hideous, spiteful couple known as the Twits live together in a brick house without windows.

As you know, an ordinary unhairy face like yours or mine simply gets a bit smudgy if it is not washed often enough, and there’s nothing so awful about that.

But a hairy face is a very different matter. Things cling to hairs, especially food. Things like gravy 5 go right in among the hairs and stay there. You and I can wipe our smooth faces with a flannel and we quickly look more or less all right again, but the hairy man cannot do that.

We can also, if we are careful, eat our meals without spreading food all over our faces. But not so the hairy man. Watch carefully next time you see a hairy man eating his lunch and you will notice that even if he opens his mouth very wide, it is impossible for him to get a spoonful of 10 beef-stew or ice-cream and chocolate sauce into it without leaving some of it on the hairs.

Mr. Twit didn’t even bother to open his mouth wide when he ate. As a result (and because he never washed) there were always hundreds of bits of old breakfasts and lunches and suppers sticking to the hairs around his face. They weren’t big bits, mind you, because he used to wipe those off with the back of his hand or on his sleeve while he was eating. But if you looked closely 15 (not that you’d ever want to) you would see tiny little specks of dried-up scrambled eggs tuck to the hairs, and spinach and tomato ketchup and fish fingers and minced chicken livers and all the other disgusting things Mr Twit liked to eat.

If you look closer still (hold your noses, ladies and gentlemen), if you peered deep into the moustachy bristles sticking out over his upper lip, you would probably see much larger objects 20 that had escaped the wipe of his hand, things that had been there for months and months, like a piece of maggoty green cheese or a mouldy old cornflake or even the slimy tail of a tinned sardine. a bristle: short stiff hair gravy: sauce Because of all this, Mr Twit never went really hungry. By hideous: very ugly sticking out his tongue and curling it sideways to explore the hairy jungle around his mouth, he was always able to minced: in very small pieces 25 find a tasty morsel here and there to nibble on. a morsel: a piece mouldy: (here) food that has gone bad What I am trying to tell you is that Mr Twit was a foul and smudgy: a bit dirty smelly old man. spiteful: mean and unpleasant Source: The Twits, Roald Dahl

GRAMMAR

How to count things with and without numbers Countable and uncountable nouns

nouns can be counted using numbers.

They have: – a singular form (can use the indefinite article ‘a’ or ‘an’) e.g. a pear / an apple – a plural form e.g. two pears / two apples nouns cannot be counted with numbers.

– They are used with a singular verb.

– They usually do not have a plural form.

– To make uncountable nouns countable, we use e.g. some sugar • quantifiers.

• containers in which they are sold. e.g. a carton of juice Some nouns can be both countable (C) and uncountable (UC). e.g. ice cream He has already had an ice cream today. (C)

I really love ice cream.

By Kristy McHale

who wins the battle of the breakfast?

The Brits love a fry-up; the Americans are mad for pancakes ... we headed to The Interesting Eating Company on Allerton Road for a transatlantic breakfast battle. UK vs USA ... who will win the Battle of the Breakfasts in National Breakfast Week?

This week is National Breakfast Week, so we’re celebrating the most important meal of the day. In Britain, the breakfast staple is a good oldfashioned fry-up. Across the Atlantic, the Americans are mad for stacks upon stacks of pancakes, drenched in maple syrup. ECHO reporters Amy Browne and Kirsty McHale headed to The Interesting Eating Company on Allerton Road for a transatlantic Battle of the Breakfasts.

In the British corner ... Amy takes on the ‘All the 2s Full English Breakfast’ Marked with the Union Flag, the traditional British breakfast consists of two poached eggs, two sausages, a grilled tomato and mushroom, two rashers of grilled bacon and baked beans, with two slices of thick cut toast, served with tea or coffee. Price £ 9,00.

‘When they say full English, they really mean it here.

What arrived in front of me was enough food to keep me full until gone lunchtime because the portion is HUGE. The two rashers of thick cut bacon were lean, tasty and thankfully not glistening in fat - always off-putting for me.

I’d liked the few – but present – vitamins in the beans, mushrooms and tomatoes. The beans were served in a little pot and the two eggs came perfectly poached. Two slices of toast were a bit too much for me, but I’m sure those with a bigger appetite wouldn’t complain. But the real highlight had to be the sausages. Made by the owner’s dad, a butcher, they were smooth yet meaty in texture, with a delicious savoury after taste.’

In the American corner ... Kirsty enjoys ‘American-style Pancakes’ In the stars and stripes corner, the all-American pancake breakfast – with added bacon and maple syrup. Kirsty gets three American-style pancakes with two strips of crispy bacon, topped with maple syrup.

The price is $ 6,99.

‘First I thought the combination of sweet and savoury would be weird, but it is delicious. The last time I had pancakes this good was in a New York diner. The pancakes were beautifully light and fluffy; a lot of places can make the mistake of making ‘American’ pancakes too dense. But these were cooked to perfection. The bacon was maybe a little TOO crispy, but that’s just my personal taste. The maple syrup complemented the whole meal without overpowering the pancakes. For a minute I thought I was back on 8th Avenue!’

And the winner is ... USA! It was tight, but as unpatriotic as it may be on Britain’s week of celebration, the American-style pancakes were just too good to ignore. The conclusion: although Great Britain is the most important country in the world, the Americans have the best and the tastiest breakfast.

STRATEGY

How to structure a text

If there are several steps in your instructions, you can use specifi c linking words, called sequence markers. You can also use ‘steps’, letters (a, b, c ...) or numbers (1, 2, 3 ...).

e.g. First, boil the water. Then add the pasta and boil until done. Next, drain the pasta.

Finally, enjoy your meal. e.g. Step 1, choose your fruit and vegetables. Step 2, add your liquids. Step 3, add a base.

b Read the recipe for Classic Tomato Spaghetti. While you are reading, highlight the equipment you need.

Classic Tomato Spaghetti

Method

Once you’ve made this a few times you can add other very simple ingredients, such as baby spinach, chopped rocket leaves, or fresh or frozen peas, to your basic tomato sauce to completely transform it.

1

Pick the basil leaves onto a chopping board (reserving a few baby leaves to garnish), then roughly chop the remaining leaves and finely chop the stalks.

2

Peel and finely slice the onion and garlic. If using fresh, cut the tomatoes in half, then carefully open the tins of tomatoes.

3

Put a saucepan on a medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the onion, then cook for around 7 minutes, or until soft and lightly golden.

4 Stir in the garlic and basil stalks for a few minutes, then add the fresh or tinned tomatoes and the vinegar.

5 Season with a tiny pinch of salt and pepper, then continue cooking for around 15 minutes, stirring really occasionally.

6

Stir in the chopped basil leaves, then reduce to low heat. Meanwhile …

7

Carefully fill a large pot three-quarters of the way up with boiling water, add a tiny pinch of salt and bring back to the boil.

8

Add the spaghetti and cook according to packet instructions – you want to cook your pasta until it is al dente. Use the timings on the packet instructions as a guide, but try some just before the time is up to make sure it’s perfectly cooked.

9

Once the pasta is done, ladle out and reserve a cup of the cooking water and keep it to one side, then drain in a colander over the sink and tip the spaghetti back into the pot.

10 Stir the spaghetti into the sauce, adding a splash of the pasta water to loosen, if needed.

11

Serve with the reserved basil leaves sprinkled over the top and use a grater to finely grate the Parmesan cheese, then sprinkle over.

Using adjectives and adverbs READING

Read the text and answer the questions. a What does Mrs Twit do? Why?

b Why couldn’t Mr Twit see what was in his spaghetti?

c How does Mrs Twit react at the end?

The previous night Mr Twit had put a frog in Mrs Twit’s bed. She decided to take her revenge …

sss The Wormy Spaghetti The next day, to pay Mr Twit back for the frog trick, Mrs Twit sneaked out into the garden and dug up some worms. She chose big long ones and put them in a tin and carried the tin back to the house under her apron.

At one o’clock, she cooked spaghetti for lunch and she mixed the worms in with the spaghetti, but only on her husband’s plate. The worms didn’t show because everything was covered with tomato sauce and sprinkled with cheese.

‘Hey, my spaghetti’s moving!’ cried Mr Twit, poking around in it with his fork. ‘It’s a new kind,’ Mrs Twit said, taking a mouthful from her own plate, which of course had no worms. ‘It’s called Squiggly Spaghetti. It’s delicious. Eat it up while it’s nice and hot.’

Mr Twit started eating, twisting the long tomato-covered strings around his fork and shovelling them into his mouth. Soon there was tomato sauce all over his hairy chin.

‘It’s not as good as the ordinary kind,’ he said, talking with his mouth full. ‘It’s too squishy.’

‘I find it very tasty,’ Mrs Twit said. She was watching him from the other end of the table.

It gave her great pleasure to watch him eating worms.

‘I find it rather bitter,’ Mr Twit said. ‘It’s got a distinctly bitter flavour. Buy the other kind next time.’

Mrs Twit waited until Mr Twit had eaten the whole plateful. Then she said, ‘You want to know why your spaghetti was squishy?’ Mr Twit wiped the tomato sauce from his beard with a corner of the tablecloth. ‘Why?’ he said.

‘And why it had a nasty bitter taste?’

‘Why?’ he said.

‘Because they were worms!’ cried Mrs Twit, clapping her hands and stamping her feet on the floor and rocking with horrible laughter. three hundred and thirty-four
