Reading Comprehension
Slow-Fried French Fries
There are certain foods that are better when not made
at home, like french fries. To achieve golden-brown
perfection, you have to fry them twice: first at a low
temperature, to poach them; then at a high heat, to
crisp them up. Very tasty, very much a pain in the
neck. A few years back, I read about how French chef
Joel Robuchon supposedly does it at his house: He
puts sliced potatoes in a pot of cold oil, turns on the
heat, and lets them go. It sounds too simple to work.
But as the temperature rises, the potatoes cook from
the outer layer in until the fries are wonderfully
crunchy outside and creamy in the center. You'll never
make fries any other way-even if you've never made
them before.
2. Put a  in the right box:
1. The word chef (in line 6) means 2. In the text fry (line 3) means:

a person in charge of a hotel to cook in a pan over heat with use of fat

a person who cooks to cut something into pieces

a person who waits on people to slice something

3. The word twice (in line 3) means: 4. In the text poach (line 4) means:

one time to cook in salty liquid

two times to cook in a boiling liquid

three times to fry

5. French fries are better when cooked 6. The French chef J.R. has his

at home own recipe

in a restaurant doesn’t know how to make French fries

in a factory doesn’t cook French fries at all

7. What does the word crisp mean: 8. What does a pain in the neck mean?

soft to have a problem with one’s neck

crunchy to please someone

flexible to be annoying

3. Read the text below and Write true (t) or false (f)
The first time I took my daughter to the movie theater she was 6 and the movie was “Bambi”.
I’m a movies lover, so I had chosen it carefully and thought a cartoon movie would be an
effective introduction to the Seventh Art World.
Everything was going just fine until Bambi’s mother was shot and killed. My daughter got
anguished and asked to go home in the middle of the movie. Fortunately later choices turned
out OK and she likes movies as much as I do.
My point is: are cartoons really safe for kids? Or do parents need to pay attention to the
type of cartoons kids are watching during their spare time?
Once I sat on the sofa to watch a cartoon with my 8-year-old son and got completely
dumbfounded when I realized a cartoon character was agonizing right in front of us, bleeding
as if it was an action adult movie!
Everybody knows that the cartoon “The Simpsons” doesn’t spread nice manners or behavior,
but what about the “kid stuff” they display in the afternoon for young children?
The next time you take a kid to the movies maybe a cartoon doesn’t make the best choice,
unless you take the time to watch it and analyze its content first. Or you take the risk of
exposing your child to messages she/he isn’t prepared to get yet.
