6. Pre-reading task.
T: Read the text “The Food People Eat “ and say who of these two people healthier , and who of them eats healthy food.
7. Reading of the text “The Food People Eat”.
“The Food People Eat”.
What about the food the people eat? I know a man who only eats natural food; he takes a lot of vitamins. I’ve never seen anybody who looks so ill.! I like good food and I think most healthy food is really tasteless. For breakfast I usually have toasts and coffee ,and at weekends when I have more time I have bacon and fried eggs .If I get tired in the middle of the morning I have a bar of chocolate , then for lunch a sandwich ( made with white bread ,of course ). After a day’s work in the office, I’m pretty hungry and in the evening I like a big meal of meat and potatoes. My ill-looking friend is horrified by what I eat ; his breakfast is a piece of whole-meal bread with a cup of herbal tea and then for lunch he has rice and in the evening beans and salad .He says it’s a very good for him, but I’m not sure.
There’s nothing wrong with being healthy and keeping fit but with some people it’s about a religion. Nothing can make me jogging. No, thank you, I’d rather sit and have a cup of coffee while the joggers are out running around the streets. I get my exercises walking to the bus stop оn my way to work.

Now you’ll listen to the representatives from Great Britain and Ukraine and learn if there are differences between British and Ukrainian cuisine .Your task for today was to find the information on this topic. So the representatives from Great Britain are welcome.
English meals
P(1) It might be useful to know what sort of meals English people have and how they behave at the table .Inmost English homes four meals are served: breakfast, lunch, tea, dinner.
Breakfast may be served any time from 7 to 9 p.m. It consist of bacon and eggs, fish may be served. Either tea or coffee is drunk at the breakfast.
Lunch comes at about 1 p.m. It generally consist of meat, potatoes, salad made of lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes or carrots. On the table are pepper, salt, mustard. After that there is bread or biscuits and cheese .Most people drink water at lunch, some drink tea.
Afternoon tea, taken between 4 and 5 is the most informal meal of the day. If you are a friend of the family, you may drop in for tea without invitation.
P (2): Dinner is the most substantial meal of the day and is very formal. Many people wear special clothes for dinner .It is usually served at 6.30. The first course is soup. Then comes fish: there is special knife and fork near each person.
The next course is the most important. It consists of meat (it may be chicken or duck. With it are served different vegetables, peas, beans, cabbage, cauliflower. Some sort of pudding is generally the 4th course. It must be imagined that all people eat like this. Most of them have their dinner in the middle of the day.
T: Thank you. The representatives from Ukraine are welcome now.
Ukrainian meals

- Are there foods that are bad for you ?
( Pupils’ own answers )
13. Now, listen to the nutritionist and say how she answers these questions. Write down some notes on the topic in your copybooks. (Student’s book - Move Ahead 2)
Tapescript.
N : Today I’m going to answer the following questions, What do we need when we eat? And where do we get it from? First of all, the main thing to remember is this: eating and drinking should provide your body with the thing you need for a healthy life: proteins, sugars, fats, vitamins and minerals. A balanced diet will include all of these.
Your body will only operate well if you have energy and energy comes from the food you eat. We measure energy in calories .The foods which contain most calories are those which contain large amounts of fats and carbohydrates, which we get from sugar, milk and cheese.
You also need protein. Protein is essential to life. Adults need 60 grams of protein per day, children need more. You get the protein you need from meat, fish, cheese, beans, lentils and rice. If you add fresh fruit and vegetables to this mix, they will provide the rest of the vitamins and minerals you need for a balanced diet.
The other question is : how much should you eat?-Well, it depends on your age and your lifestyle. If you sit behind the desk all day, you need fewer calories than if you spend all day building houses.
The last question is this: are there foods that are bad for us? Take beefburgers or pizzas, for example. If they are made from fresh products, then they are good for you. However if food contains chemical additives, they are possibly bad for you. This is the same for sweets, biscuits, crisps, fizzy drinks and other foods. You need proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins…, you don’t need chemicals which only add colouring and flavouring.
14. Post-listening task.
T : How does the nutritionist answers the following questions :
1) Why do we need to eat different food?
2) Where do we get energy?
3) How much should we eat?
4) Are there foods that are bad for you?
