[对应学生用书P405] Ⅰ.阅读理解 A (2022·南充高考适应性考试)Food festivals are a common occurrence in the UK and take place in all sorts of places and at all sorts of times. Whatever your taste, there's a food festival to match it — no matter how special. Meatopia This three­day, London­based festival takes place at the end of August or in early September and is a meat lover's paradise. In addition to a range of legally sourced meat products, from juicy burgers to tender steaks，attendees can listen to live music, watch butchery demonstrations, and attend informal meat­based workshops. The National Honey Show If you have a sweet tooth, then it could be that the National Honey Show, which started in 1923, is the place for you. This three­day event attracts many local participants who showcase their sweet golden honey，some of which is sold globally. The Orange Sauce Festival Have you heard about a festival that is devoted only to orange sauce? Held in Cumbria, this sweet, fragrant festival has been running for many years. What attracts people most is a competition to find the best homemade orange sauce. There are thousands of participants from over 30 different countries across the globe, bringing their local snacks to share here. The Ginger (姜) and Spice Festival If you'd prefer something with a little more kick，then you could attend the Ginger and Spice Festival held in Market Drayton. Unlike other food festivals, it celebrates its town's historic connection to Robert Clive，who returned from India with ginger. Because of this，people here specialize in baking gingerbread, and sell a range of traditional spices from mild ones to hot ones.
