　　Passage One

　　Americans eat breakfast and lunch quickly unless it is a social

　　business or family occasion.

　　The evening meal is usually longer and a time for family to gather together.

　　Rushing through daytime meals is part of the fast pace in America.

　　Another reason for rushing through daytime meals is that many people eat in restaurant

　　that are usually crowded with people waiting for a place so that

　　they too can be served and return to work at the proper time.

　　So each one hurries to make room for the next person.

　　As with busy people everywhere

　　there is a real difference with meals

　　that are eaten in a hurry and those that can be enjoyed slowly with friends.

　　11. What time would be the least busy time to eat in a restaurant?

　　12. What is a reason or how many reasons are there for Americans to rush through their daytime meals?

　　13. On which occasion do Americans eat breakfast and lunch quickly?
