Food for Thought
" Cooking is love made visible. " That is what my grandmother
always told me. Thanks to her, I love cooking. It's a great way for
me to share my love with others. Every time I sit at the table, after
cooking for my family, we create memories. The smells and the
food's taste, along with our conversations, connect us to each
other. What wonderful memories I have! One of my favourite memories is my grandmother's pumpkin pie. She always
made it in autumn, when the weather got colder. Her friendly kitchen was the perfect place to warm up and enjoy a taste
of the changing seasons. I still remember the days when the smell of cinnamon filled the
room with sweetness. Now, every time I smell cinnamon, I think of my grandmother's
pumpkin pie.
My grandmother told me about her first pumpkin pie. When she was a college student in
the US, she stayed with a host family. One year around Thanksgiving, the hostess taught
her how to make a pumpkin pie. Many years later, she taught me how to make it too.
My grandmother loved learning how to make food from other cultures. " It's my way of
making friends from around the world, she said, Grandmother taught me the secret to cooking: Cook with love.Thanks to
my grandmother, I love to try new food and new recipes from other countries and cultures.

For one group of children aged between ten and fifteen, Saturdays are spent learning the art of serious cooking.
Their weekly lessons in small classes are so popular that there is a waiting list of 30 children who want to do the course.
Parents pay $280 for the course where their children can have fun and learn how to make good food.
Class member Bill, aged ten, says, “I love my mum’s cooking and now I can do it better than her. The teachers make
us laugh, especially when we sit down with them to share the food we’ve made.”
Flora is twelve, and she’s having problems preparing onions. “I love cooking. I did a meal for ten friends which they
really enjoyed. Then my mum suggested I take up a hobby, instead of doing nothing at weekends. I was happy staying at
home, so I wasn’t too active at first. I’m really glad I decided to come, though.”
Their teacher, Philippe, says, “It’s great fun. Children pay attention and remember things better than adults, although
the kitchen isn’t always tidy when they’re cooking! As adults, we’re always learning more about food. If parents interest
their children in cooking while they are young, they’ll have enough skill to make food for themselves when they leave
home.”
（ C ）1．In this article, the writer is trying to ________.
A．warn parents not to expect too much from their children
B．advertise schools to teach children how to cook
C．describe how some children spend their spare time
D．explain why parents want to learn more about cooking
（ D ）2．Why did Flora join the course?

C．They keep the kitchen cleaner than adults do.
D．They teach their parents what they have learnt in class.
（ D ）4．What would one of Philippe’s students say to a friend?
A．We made onion soup yesterday. The course is great, although there are 30 people in my class.
B．I go every Saturday, and now I cook as well as my mum. I’m ten, and I’m the oldest.
C．It’s great. No one’s over 15 and the food looks delicious. I just wish we could eat it together instead of taking it
home.
D．I was on a waiting list for ages, but now I’m on the course. Last week I cut up some onions-it was hard!
