Cereal or Cereals? (A2–B1)

Anna usually eats cereal for breakfast because it is quick and healthy. She likes eating cereal with cold milk and fresh fruit.

Every Saturday she goes to a supermarket that sells many different cereals. There are chocolate cereals, honey cereals, and wholegrain cereals on the shelves. Her favourite cereal is crunchy granola with nuts.

Anna's father is a farmer, and he grows several cereals, including wheat, barley, and oats. These cereals are used to make bread, flour, and breakfast food.

Anna has learned that the word cereal can mean breakfast food in general, but cereals can also mean different kinds of breakfast cereals or grain crops. Now she always understands the difference. She thinks English grammar becomes much easier when you learn words in context.
