Of course, coffee is also very popular in the UK but coffee culture in Italy is a completely different story. In Italy, when you order a coffee in a cafe or a bar, you are presented with a tiny, bitter espresso（蒸餾咖啡）. This is "normal coffee" for Italians and they are not so interested in the huge coffees that we drink in the UK. In addition, while take-away coffee is extremely popular among Englishmen, it is not very common at all in Italy especially in non-touristy areas. Generally, Italians prefer to drink their tiny coffees while standing at the bar and, for many, this short break is an important part of their day.

Typically, breakfast at a bar in Italy includes a coffee and a pastry（油酥糕點(diǎn)）. I have been spoiled for choice with lovely cafes in the Italian town I'm living in these cafes sell a series of mouth-watering pastries-either plain or filled with cream, chocolate, jam or Nutella-as well as delicious coffee. Cappuccinos are very popular at breakfast time and, for me, a creamy cappuccino and a pastry is the perfect way to start the day. I think it's a nice way to head to bar to buy a coffee and a pastry for breakfast before working and it's relaxing to take more time to enjoy such breakfast at the weekend.

Finally, I have found that coffee in Italy is so much cheaper than coffee in the UK. Of course, this means that in Italy it is possible to go out for coffee regularly without breaking the bank.

【1】Which of the following do Italians like better?

A.Takeaway coffees.B.Huge coffees.

C.Creamy coffees.D.Tiny, bitter coffees

【2】What does the word "they" in Paragraph 2 refer to?

A.Italians.B.Britons.C.Coffees.D.Cafes.

【3】Why can the writer often go out for coffee in Italy?

A.Because coffee is a part of Italian culture.B.Because there are so many cafes or bars.

C.Because Italian pastries are very delicious.D.Because Italian coffee is very cheap.
