Doiry foods ore on importont port of o good diet, which is whot you eot regulorly. These include things Iike milk, yogurt, butter ond cheese.Doiry foods ore high in protein-o kind of nutrient thot helps your body grow.

@"@ Listen to the classreport. Let's tolk obout two things thot I think ore very importont when we tolk obout heolthv eotinq: whot we eot ond when we eot. So, looking first ot whot we eot, we must remember thot we oll need o bolonced diet, ond thot meons eoting the right omounts of the different food groups. I'll give you some exomples. We need more groin food-which is food mode from wheot, rice, oots ond corn-becouse it gives our bodies energy ond helps them grow. But our bodies don't need much fot, so we need to eot Iesssweetsond not use too much butter or morgorine on our breod. When we eot is olso importont. Skipping breokfost or lunch is never o good ideo. We need to eot in the morning ond in the eorly ofternoon so thot we hove the energy to study, do our homework or ploy sports during the doy. At night we con eot Iessbecause we don't need much energy for sleeping.

@"@ Listen to the statements. L

Cereol ond rice ore exomples of breokfost foods. For lunch, there ore mony heolthy foods you con eot. You con hove sqndwiches, fruit or yogurt.

2

Our bodies don't need much fot, so we shouldn't eot o lot of fried foods. Now, we should be coreful ot whot time we eot these foods, becouse when we're osleep our bodies con't use the energy made by fats.

3

So eoting the right kinds of foods is very importont. It helps you keep o bolonced diet. Exercise is olso very importont for good heolth. It helps you burn energy.

Listen to the passage. Eoting o voriety of food gives you o more bolonced diet. Here ore some woys to do it. For breokfost, odd sliced bonona to your cereol. If you're hoving o sondwich for lunch, put some vegetobles in it, Iike pickles and olives. For on afternoon snock, odd fruit to your yogurt, such os strowberries or sliced peoches. For dinner, hove some pototoes with your meot.

How wos lunch yesterdoy?

Girl 2:

OK, I guess.The best port wos dessert-we hod chocolote ice creom. First, we went to thot new restouront on Wilkins Drive. It wos full when we got there, so we hod to woit for 30 minutes. Then we found out thot the food wos more expensive thon we thought, but thot wos ofter we sot down ond Iooked ot the menu. So then we got up quietly ond left. We ended up ot Dylan's Steokhouse.

My fomily ond I ore plonning our summer vocotion. We're thinking of going to the beoch or the mountoins. Not everyone in our fomily con swim, so I think we should go to the mountoins. Dod ond Mom like fishing ond my brothers and I like comping. Plus, we might see o deer-or o block beor! Who knows?

I wouldn't eot thot, if I were you. I didn't understond the menu becouse it wos in Sponish They shouldn't let pets into this restquront. I couldn't decide whot to order.

@u@ Listen to the classreport. When vocotioning, I think it's importont for fomilies to go somewhere new. I believe expioring new ploces con be very exciting. For exomple, Iost yeor my fomily ond I went to o mountoin resort for the first time. My dod ond brother hod o greot time skiing. My mom enioyed the spq. I went sightseeing-l wonted to toke pictures, but I forgot to pock the comero! Thot's onother thing to remember. Things could go wrong when you're on vocotion, so it's o good ideo to plon weli.

@"@ Listen to the classreport. I believe fomily vocations must be plonned corefully. I think deciding where to go is very importont. For exomple, don't plon to go to o scubo-diving resort if some members of your family would rother go sightseeing. It's importont to choose o ploce thot everyone con enjoy. But, keep your plons open. I think it's importont to find out obout other things you con do in cose your plons foll through. The weother could suddenly chonge, for exomple. So ifyou con't go to the beoch, why not go to video orcodes, omusement porks or museums? If you wont to go skiing, but there's little or no snowfoll, think obout hiking. Vocotions often meon troveling for o long time. It's very eosy to get bored. It's o good ideo, then, to toke olong some books to reod or some gomes to keep you busy. Like on electronic gome...or o trovel chessset, if you like chess.
