1. Is food important to you?
Yes, I have a healthy appetite. You know, different types of food can provide enough fibre, vitamins and minerals, and these are essential for our body to work properly and enable us to have the energy to work or study.
是的,我有個不錯的健康的胃口。不同的食物能提供足夠的纖維、維生素和礦物質(zhì),這些能讓我們的身體良好運(yùn)轉(zhuǎn),而且,這些食物還可以使我們充滿能量去學(xué)習(xí)或工作。
2. What foods do you usually eat?
Well, I love to eat fast food, which is timesaving and economical, as I don’t need to wait in a queue and it can cut my budget on food. However, I’ve heard that eating junk food on a daily basis will certainly cause obesity and other chronic disease, so now I’d like to cut down the times on having McDonald’s or stuff like that.
我喜歡吃快餐,又省時又便宜,因為我不用排隊等候而且還能節(jié)省預(yù)算。但我聽說每天都吃垃圾食品會導(dǎo)致肥胖和其他慢性疾病,所以我正在減少吃麥當(dāng)勞等快餐的次數(shù)。
3. What kind of food do you particularly like?
Well, I’m crazy about dessert. I normally go to the coffeehouse to have high teas. Having a cup of refreshing drink and some tea dessert like muffin and croissant is helpful to keep me in good mood in the afternoon. Though these foods contain high calories, I’ve no attempt to resist these dainty foods.
我特別喜歡吃甜食。我一般都去咖啡廳喝下午茶。喝上一杯提神醒腦的飲料再來點(diǎn)像妙芙和羊角面包之類的茶點(diǎn)能讓我一下午都有好心情。雖然這些食物含有高熱量,但我并不打算拒絕這些美味。
4. Is there any food you don’t like?
Yes, I don’t eat meat. I’m a vegetarian and believed that eating meat is brutal to animals and is harmful to our health. Clearly, the overconsumption of red meat may cause high blood glucose levels and lead to diabetes.
我不吃肉。我是個素食主義者并且認(rèn)為吃肉是對動物的殘忍而且對健康不利。很明顯,過度攝入紅肉會導(dǎo)致高血糖并導(dǎo)致肥胖。
5. Do you think it’s good to take children to restaurants?
Well, it’s not appropriate to take children to eat outside on a regular basis, because they may consequently get adapted to it and reluctant to eat home-cooked meals, which is normally prepared under sanitary conditions. Therefore, parents should avoid children’s bad eating habit.
我覺得經(jīng)常帶孩子到外面吃飯不合適,因為他們會因此習(xí)慣于餐廳食品而拒絕家里在衛(wèi)生條件下做的食物。所以,家長們要盡量避免孩子們的不良飲食習(xí)慣。
