2、t me. I tried it for the first time during my summer vacation in Spain. You see, in the south of Spain, it gets very hot in the summer, up to 40C. So a cold gazpacho is very refreshing. The main ingredients are tomato, cucumber, bell peppers, olive oil and stale bread.M: Stale bread? Surely you mean
3、 bread for dipping into the soup?W: No. Bread is crushed and blended in like everything else. It adds texture and thickness to the soup.M: Mm. And is it healthy?W: Sure. As I said earlier its mostly vegetables. You can also add different things if you like, such as hard-boiled egg or cured ham.M: Cu
4、red ham? Whats that?W: Thats another Spanish delicacy. Have you never heard of it? It is quite famous.M: no, is it good too?W: Oh, yeah, definitely. Its amazing.

8、you like?M: I dont know, sorry. I dont know much about wine.W: Thats no problem at all. Whats the occasion and how much would you like to spend?M: Its for my boss. Its his birthday. I know he likes wine, but I dont know what type. I also do not want anything too expensive, maybe mid-range. How much
9、would you say is a mid-range bottle of wine approximately?W: Well, it varies greatly. Our lowest prices are around $6 a bottle, but those are table wines. They are not very special. And I would not suggest them as a gift. On the other end, our most expensive bottles are over $150. If you are looking
10、 for something priced in the middle, I would say anything between $30 and $60 would make a decent gift. How does that sound?M: Mm, yeah. I guess something in the vicinity of 30 or 40 would be good. Which type would you recommend?W: I would say the safest option is always a red wine. They are general
11、ly more popular than whites, and can usually be paired with food more easily. Our specialty here are Italian wines, and these tend to be fruity with medium acidity. This one here is a Chianti, which is perhaps Italys most famous type of red wine. Alternatively, you may wish to try and surprise your

They were called the NH code talkers. The NH created the codes in their own language. NH was hard to learn and only a few people kn
16、ow it. So it was pretty certain that the enemy would not be able to understand the code talkers. In addition, the talkers used code words. They called a submarine and an iron fish and a small bomb thrown by hand, a potato. If they wanted to spell something, they used code words for letters of the Alphabet.
