简单又美味的三明治

Sandwiches were created (发明) by an English man, John Montagu. He gambled (赌博) all day, so he didn’t have ti me for a meal. He just put some food between two pieces of bread and ate it.

Now, there are many different kinds of sandwiches. People all over the world eat them. In England, many children at school and adults (成年人) at work have sandwiches as “packed lunch” (盒装午餐).
