The international business program

organized the stand of the United

States for the week of languages in
the industrial Seine and Alternative
Energies, in order to provide
apprentices with the opportunity
to learn about culture, typical
foods and other aspects relevant
about this country.

In that order of ideas, for the creation of the Stand, the apprentices
organized three committees to guarantee a successful event; divided as
follows:

Hot dogs were brewed in various
parts of Europe before European
immigrants (especially of German
origin) brought them to the United
States and became a popular street
food among the middle class. In

thanks to the contribution of
several European butchers who
were dedicated to 'replicating' the
sausage in the new continent.
Apparently, the German butcher
Charles Feltman was the first to sell
hot dogs in some carts on the
beaches of Coney Island (near New
York) in 1867. The sales success he

the first time in 1847, when a sailor
named Hanson Gregory, made the
famous hole with the lid of a boat's
pepper shaker, to solve the problem
that the dough does not fry well in
the center. It is generally
considered that the origin of the
donut comes from the Dutch
Christmas candy oliebollen (oil
balls), which they brought to New
Amsterdam (future New York) in
the sixteenth century. In the
following centuries it evolved
towards the donut that is known
today.

2. What do you like the most from that country? Explain why.
ANSWER

Yes! I would like visit U.S.A mainly because I want to learn English with native people. I admire
the architecture of its cities, the cultural diversity, the food, and variety of climates, the thematic
and natural parks, among many other things.

If I had the opportunity to go to the United States, I would love to do it in the fall, to enjoy the
landscapes and the cold ... here it is always hot!
