UNIT 5 I like music that I can dance to.
[00:09.02]I only eat food that tastes good.
[00:12.66]Section 1 Before You Read
[00:15.37]GROUPWORK
[00:17.72]Look at the diets of two people.
[00:20.68]Discuss which diet is healthier and why.
[00:24.50]LINDA'S DIET
[00:26.09]She prefers:to drink water
[00:28.95]to eat brown bread and rice
[00:32.56]to eat fruit and fish
[00:36.81]JACK'S DIET
[00:38.23]He prefers:to drink coffee
[00:41.09]to eat white bread and rice
[00:43.06]to eat sweet desserts
[00:45.95]Section 2 While You Read
[00:51.20]Learning strategy:
[00:53.94]KNOWING DIFFERENT STYLES OF ENGLISH
[00:57.26]There are many styles of English:
[00:59.89]To learn to "speak" English,
[01:02.49]read plays and novels that contain spoken
[01:05.45]language.
[01:07.11]And to learn to "write" English,
[01:09.65]read newspaper articles.Notice the difference.
[01:14.50]I only eat food that tastes good.
[01:18.24]How important is keeping healthy to you?
[01:21.24]A group of young people got together to discuss
[01:23.80]this question.
[01:25.26]Here's part of their discussion.
[01:28.12]I'd like to stay healthy,but to be honest,
[01:31.27]I only eat food that tastes good.
[01:34.07]And if food tastes good,it's usually bad for you
[01:36.76]isn't it?
[01:37.98]Cola tastes better than water,for example.
[01:41.34]Well,food that is bad for you can taste good!
[01:44.83]But I prefer not to eat too much food that is
[01:47.69]fried,like,er,French fries.
[01:50.48]Do you eat fast food,Laura?
[01:52.76]Do I eat fast food?Never!
[01:55.97]I love to eat food that is healthy.
[01:58.89]I want to take care of my health,
[02:01.45]so I eat mainly fruit and vegetables.
[02:04.25]Oh,And I stay away from sugar,you do too,
[02:08.08]don't you?
[02:09.91]Hm,yes.And I think most people are in agreement
[02:13.62]that fruit and vegetables are good for health.
[02:16.73]But,um,I would say that fast food itself isn't
[02:20.64]always bad for you,but too much of it is not
[02:23.44]good.
[02:25.06]Actually,did you know that it's been found in
[02:27.75]laboratory testing that some types of oil are
[02:31.21]really bad for us?
[02:33.08]So I don't eat anything that's been cooked in
[02:35.72]oil.
[02:36.91]Also,did you know that some foods might cause
[02:40.14]cancer?Like burnt barbecued meat.
[02:43.91]I've heard eating burnt food like this can
[02:47.25]increase the risk of cancer.
[02:50.02]Really!But I love to eat meat that's well cooked
[02:53.34]even if it is a little burnt.
[02:55.15]It's delicious,and meat isn't really dangerous,
[02:58.17]is it?Oh,Yes,it is!I never eat meat.
[03:03.13]It's not at all good for our health.
[03:05.64]If I were you,I'd eat nuts instead.
[03:09.07]Well,I agree it's good to eat lots of fruit and
[03:11.85]vegetables,but I think it's also fine to eat
[03:14.96]some meat or fish.
[03:16.60]People who eat a balanced diet should be
[03:18.79]healthier than those who only eat biscuits and
[03:21.42]hamburgers,shouldn't they?
[03:23.58]I prefer to only eat food that I like,
[03:26.31]but isn't it important to eat food that's
[03:28.66]healthy,even if you don't like it?
[03:31.50]The main thing is to have a good balance.
[03:35.61]Section 3 After You Read
[03:39.36]3a Go through the conversation and find all the
[03:43.79]language that is only used when speaking.
[03:47.26]Add them to the chart below.
[03:50.59]3b Use the information from the conversation to
[03:55.42]match the statements with each person.
[04:00.55]3c Write each type of food or drink from the
[04:05.66]reading in the correct column.
[04:08.77]Section 4 Go For It!
[04:12.27]Do a class survey to find out your classmates'
[04:15.80]diets.
[04:17.70]Check(√)each person's answer under the YES or
[04:21.43]NO column.
[04:23.24]Discuss the results of the survey.
[04:27.09]If you have time!
[04:29.58]Write a report of what was said in the
[04:32.19]discussion by Laura,Peter and Tony.
[04:36.85]Use words like "agree" and "disagree".
[04:41.18]Peter wants to stay healthy but he thinks food
[04:44.13]that tastes good is bad for you.
[04:46.69]Tony agrees...
