READ THE PASSAGE VERY CAREFULLY AND CHOOSE THE CORRECT OPTIONS : Despite the popularity of the langouste (or the spiny lobster, as it is often called) all over the world, Indian chefs continue to be embarrassed about putting it on the menu, arguing that it is “only a crayfish and not a real lobster. In the process all of us lose out. The distinctive characteristic of the lobster, for me, has always been that it is a fish that is comfortable with its medium size. I am not a fan of the giant prawns that restaurants in India (and much of the Far East ) like serving because they always seem to have no real taste. They remind me of normal- size prawns that have been zapped with some dangerous gamma ray till they mutate bizarrely and grow to a terrifying size. Given a choice, I will always take small prawns over big. With the lobster, on the other hand, size is not necessarily a disadvantage. While baby lobsters can be delicate and delicious, even the largest lobster can have a sweet and tasty flesh. A bad chef will use the lobster in prawn recipes and thereby gain nothing from the substitution. But a good chef will stick to dishes that show up the sweet flesh of the lobster to best advantage. In classic French cooking, they use butter, cream, mornay sauce, veloute sauce or béchamel. Choose the correct answer: A. Indian chefs are embarrassed at putting the langouste on the menu because a.It is not popular b.It is not tasty c.It is difficult to cook d.They think of it as cray fish, not lobster B. Lobsters are a. Big in size b .Medium sized c. Tiny d. Enormous C.”All of us lose out”. ‘All’ refers to a. The diners b .The chefs c. All of these d .None of these D. The writer is not a fan of large prawns because they are a. Oversized and bizarre b. Delicious c. Tasteless d. Rare E. The writer would rather have a.Small or big prawns b.Small and big prawns c.Small prawns than big ones d. Big prawns than small ones
