| 【题目】 Some people prefer to eat at food stands or restaurants. Other people prefer to prepare and eat food at home. Which do you prefer? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer. 【范文】 Home Cooking My country is famous for its good food. There is a wide variety of delicious food available at food stands and restaurants in every price range. Despite this, although I do enjoy eating out occasionally, I really prefer to cook and eat at home with my family. Although the food we prepare may not be as elegant as that which can be found in a fine restaurant, I like the taste of my mother's cooking because it tastes like home. She is the head chef at our house, but we all help in the kitchen when we can. Preparing food together is fun and brings us closer. We also talk more around the dinner table when we eat together at home because the atmosphere is quieter and more personal. We are all relaxed and can say whatever comes to mind. Lastly, when we are finished we do not have to worry about who will pay the bill. I love to eat, and I love to eat with my family. We all feel comfortableshavingsdinner at home and really enjoy the quiet time that we can spend together. Eating out is great on a special occasion or for a change of pace, but nothing can replace the joy I find in eating at home.
在家做饭 我国以美食闻名，小吃摊和各种不同价位的餐厅都有各式各样好吃的食物可供选择。尽管如此，虽然我确实喜欢偶尔出去吃饭，我还是比较喜欢在家做饭然后和我的家人一起吃饭。 虽然我们所做的饭菜也许不像高级餐厅那么精致，但我喜欢妈妈烹调的口味，因为尝起来有家的味道。妈妈是我们家的主厨，不过只要情况允许，我们也会在厨房帮忙。一起做饭很有趣，而且让我们更加亲密。当我们在家围坐餐桌一起吃饭时，因为气氛比较安静，而且无拘无束，所以会聊得更多。我们可以很轻松地想到什么就说什么。最后，当我们用餐完毕时，并不需要担心谁付账。 我喜欢吃东西，而且喜欢和我的家人一起吃。在家吃晚餐，会让我们每个人都感到很自在，而且也真的很喜欢可以一起共度的安静时光。如果是因为特别的场合，或是为了改变生活步调，外出用餐是很好的选择，但是没有什么可以取代我在家吃饭所获得的乐趣。 【注释】 a variety of各式各样的(=various) available adj.可获得的 food stand小吃摊 range n.范围 eat out外出用餐(=dine out) occasionally adv.偶尔 prepare v.做(饭菜) elegant adj.精致的 head chef主厨 close adj.亲密的 atmosphere n.气氛 relaxed adj.轻松的 sth. comes to one's mind某人突然想到某事 lastly adv.最后 occasion n.
