A) Breakfast of Champions.
We know that eating a good breakfast helps us to learn better and work more 1) efficiently, and it gives us the energy to keep on playing when others go home exhausted. We know all this and yet most of us run out of the house every morning after only a hurried cup of coffee or a rushed glass of milk. Perhaps it's time to make the 2) traditional breakfast a more regular feature of our daily routine.

Take the English breakfast, for example. Eat one of these and you probably won't need anything else until the end of the day. Fried eggs, crispy bacon and sizzling sausages straight from the frying pan take pride of place on the English breakfast table. Add a slice of toast 3) generously topped with fresh butter, jam or marmalade and you have a meal worth waking up for.

Cold climates call for something warm at the 4) beginning of the day and Russia is no exception. The early-morning aroma of home-cooked blini can drag even the deepest sleeper out from under the duvet. The huge 5) variety of toppings means that this is one breakfast dish that will never become boring. If that did happen, you could try kasha instead. This is a type of porridge usually made from buckwheat (like the best blini!) and eaten with whatever you like - meat, fish or fruit.

And what do these feasts have in common? Whether it's from a samovar or a teapot, the perfect partner to these traditional breakfasts is the humble cup of tea - a drink shared by nations and enjoved across 6) distant continents.

В) Something good on the go!
Forget the cheeseburger and fries! The best fast food has been available for decades and you don't have to 1) travel to the centre of town to find a restaurant - it's on the streets in your local neighbourhood.

If you're out and about in Moscow, you must try some delicious pirozhki. These are like pies, but smaller and with soft golden-brown dough that's filled 2) with whatever you like - fruit, cheese, meat or fish. Versions of this popular dish are 3) found all across Eastern Europe and loved by visitors from 4) all over the world.

Visiting London? Why not try the famous fish and chips? With crispy batter on the outside and delicious white fish inside, it's the perfect treat at the end of the day. It's probably best to eat the full meal either at home or in the shop, but you'll see many people wandering 5) around town eating a portion of chips.

There are many local 6) alternatives to fast food, most of them healthier and cheaper. So forget the burger bar for a while and try the wealth of great food that is just around the 7) corner from the place where you live.
