Task 1.Jennifer’s description. Is Jennifer’s hero famous? Although most people have got heroes like Nelson Mandela or Usain Bolt, my hero is my granddad. He was born 80 years ago so he’s very old. When he was a young boy, his parents died so he lived with his aunt, uncle and cousins in Manchester. Life wasn’t easy for them because they never had enough money.When he was 13, my granddad left school and started working. He wanted to be a vet so he studied at night after work as well. He worked really hard and he became a vet when he was 25. It was his dream job.I like him because he’s funny, friendly and kind to everyone, and I admire him because he worked hard to achieve his dream. I would like to be like him when I’m older.

Объяснение:
Англійці зазвичай мають 4-разове харчування: сніданок, обід, чай (5 годин) та вечеря. Сніданок може бути повноцінним «англійським сніданком» із кукурудзяних пластівців з молоком та цукром, або бекону та яєць, тостів та мармеладу, чаю чи кави. Деякі люди мають просто чашку чаю або кави з тостом або чимось подібним. Це зазвичай називають "континентальним сніданком". Англійцям подобається те, що вони називають "хорошою простою їжею". Зазвичай їм подобається стейк, ростбіф, йоркширський пудинг, риба та чіпси. Вечеря - це найсильніша їжа за весь день. Зазвичай його їдять о 7 годині. Першою стравою може бути суп (хоча англійцям це не дуже подобається). Основною стравою часто буде риба або м'ясо, можливо, традиційна запечена яловичина старої Англії та багато овочів. Наступним курсом буде щось солодке і часто запечене, наприклад, фруктовий пиріг. В останню чергу може бути сир, часто з печивом. Загальновідомо, що англійці дуже люблять чай. Вони люблять випивати "гарну чашку чаю" 6 або 8 разів на день, іноді навіть більше. На Різдво на вечерю традиційно готують смажену індичку. За ним зазвичай йде різдвяний пудинг.
