Reading
2 А. Read the first part of the article and answer the questions.
а) How could one tell who was top dog in a tribe?
б) What was once the symbol of powe' at a table? Why?
Part 1
Food has many meanings for us, but when a group of people gather together the process of eating is alwavs more about power than about nourishment. When we lived in tribes everyone may have crowded round the carcass, but you can be sure that it was the warrior man who ate first and took the best bits and thatthe women and children were served last and got leftovers, When tables and chairs first came into use, only those with power sat at the table, and then in a stnct order of importance, with a bawl pf salt showing who was top dog. The bow1 of salt might have disappeared, but the seating order still exists.
GLOSSARY
nourishment - food that is needed to live, grow and slay heatthy
leftovers (n) - food that has not been eaten at the end of a meal (be left over - verb)
top dog - the person in the highest position

B. Read the second part of the article and say how meal times have changed.
. Mention:
1 Attitude towards children,
2 Who was top dog,
3 New rules of behaviour.
4 Children's attitude to family meals.
Part 2
It has never been the tradition in Britain for children to be brought up close to their parents, If children had not been sent away to school or to work they ate in the kitchen or in the nursery. In Victorian times family meals were held on ,special occasions, but these again were occasions where power and Impor-
tance were demonstrated. The father took precedence over all others. Children were not alLowed to speak until spoken to and had to follow a set of rules relating to what was regarded as proper behaviour at the table. Today many parents still impose the rule that a child must ask-perllUSSion.1o leave the table. This rule certainly suggests that children have been forced to come to the table and would really prefer to eat elsewhere.
C. Find words or phrases in the text that mean:
1 be given food
2 food that has not been eaten
3 be arranged
4 have the right to be put before others because of greater importance
5 on different holidays and celebratIons
6 ask if one may do something
7 be made to do something
8 force somebody accept something.
GLOSSARY
nursery - a small child's bedroom in a house
Victorian - referring to the time when Queen Victoria ruled (1837- 1901)
to take precedence over somebody - to be more important than all others
D. Does anything in the texts remind you about your family meal?
. Write 4-5 sentences, which characterise your family meals.
Language Work

rfhn
B. Look at the sentences and translate them into
Russian.
. Answer the questions:
What is the function of may and might in these
sentences?
What time do they refer to?
What do the verb forms have in common?
C. Finish the sentences using may (not) and might (not).

4 Children...
5 Food...
D. Read the answer to a question sent to a newspaper.
. Guess
1 the situation which caused this question and
2 the question.
How nice to nave a child who actually asks such questions. This story remindS me of an old definition of a gentleman, as he who used a butter knife when dining alone at home. For this reason there is no distinction between "formal" and "informal" dining and I would agree with your husband.
E. Write 5 sentences to describe the situation: Example: The lelter might have been wrilten by the girl's mother.
