　　Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.

　　A marinade is a mixture of sauce in which meat or fish is ‘soaked’ to absorb the flavours. Some marinades help make the meat more teacher. When marinating， the meat or fish are turned over to ensure that all sides can absorb the sauces. The longer the meat remains in the marinade， the better it is. The meat must be put in the refrigerator before it is marinated. Marinated meat is excellent for barbecuing， grilling or pan-frying.
