All right the first question I'm going to answer would be a part one question, these are going
to be more informal questions about things you like to eat maybe what do you eat for breakfast
do you eat the same things now as you did when you were a child,
personal questions maybe about the traditions of your culture and you do want to be a little
more informal-answer as if you're chatting with a friend about what you like to eat so
notice the difference I will then answer a part three question and you want to notice
the difference in vocabulary a little more informal and some slang in this one
And the question is what kind of new food would you like to try?
I am dying to try a food that a Nigerian friend told me about
it is called "gari" and it is made from a tuber cassava which they use to they make it into flour
so you use cassava flour and hot boiling water to make a dough and then they fry it and it looks
so scrumptious I really want to try making it or find a restaurant here somewhere that makes it.
You eat it with a stew that has a very spicy flavorful tomato-based sauce, so it's a red
sauce and you can make it with lamb or beef or chicken and it's just very spicy and tasty and
I can't wait to try it one of these days it looks super yummy and it looks like a very hearty meal.
All right you noticed the idiom "dying to try", it this just means you really want to try it
and it's a great idiom to use for a food that you are dying to eat that you really want to eat
and you notice some of that slaying vocabulary to call something "super
yummy" just means very delicious but is a much more slang informal way of speaking.
All right now for a part three question notice the difference a little more informal
some higher level vocabulary and the question is, what one aspect of a foreign tradition
do you like about their eating habits? Breakfast in many Asian countries I'm
extremely impressed that it's much healthier than what I'm used to here in the states many
of my Asian friends and students have mentioned to me that for breakfast they will eat vegetables
with rice or noodles maybe dumplings but it's quite a hearty breakfast and in comparison
here in the states, I often eat a very decadent breakfast pancakes French toast cinnamon rolls
and I make a French toast that has a smooth and creamy filling a cream cheese filling that's so
it's delicious but very very rich very decadent, I'm definitely indulging when I
eat that for breakfast so I hear about this tradition of much healthier breakfast eating
vegetables for breakfast in many Asian countries and that seems much healthier much more wise
so that is definitely an aspect that I really respect about some foreign traditions.
All right guys these two answers you can really see the difference between them I'm really using
a lot more formal vocabulary for part three less slang trying to get those high-level impressive
words in there like decadent and indulge so practice using this vocabulary and learn the
words for foods traditional foods in your culture meats, vegetables names of different vegetables
and starches learn how to describe traditional meals that you're used to eating because there's
a good chance you'll be asked about food on the IELTS exam and you want to be ready all right
