Task 5. Make the dialogues using additional vocabulary and task 4.

Task 6. Read the text. Make the list of the words in bold and translate them.

Text: Healthy way of life.

Health is better than wealth. If a person is healthy and strong, he can move mountains. Healthy life includes sport and exercises, fresh air, positive mood and healthy food. There are products rich in vitamins and minerals. For example, we get vitamin A from fish, butter and carrots. Vitamin A is necessary for our eyes. Iron is important for our blood and you can find it in meat, eggs and spinach. Dairy products contain a lot of calcium which promotes growth of healthy bones and teeth. When you have a cold you need products rich in vitamin C. The next vital component of our every day meal is water.

To feel full of energy we ought to have small snacks frequently throughout the day. Besides, do not forget that breakfast is the most important meal of the day.

Lack of exercise is another serious problem. We spend hours in front of our computers and TV-sets. Few of us do morning exercises. We walk less, because we prefer to use cars or public transport. Research shows, that young people who don't take enough exercise often suffer from heart attacks.

It's common knowledge that smoking and drinking can shorten our lives. Cigarette-smoking, for example, kills about 3 million people every year. Many of them die from lung cancer. Some aren't smokers! They are people who live or work with heavy smokers. Yet many people smoke and drink. Why? One answer is that tobacco and drinks companies invest enormous sums of money in advertising their products. For them cigarettes and alcoholic drinks mean money. For us they mean disease and even death.

We all know that the healthier we are, the better we feel. The better we feel, the longer we live. So why not take care of ourselves?

Task 7. Think about the information in the text and say, what else can make you healthy.

Task 8. Do you know if you are really healthy? Answer this questionnaire. Tick “Yes” or “No” and then look at the results.

1. Do you begin your day with morning exercises, do it regularly and with a great pleasure?
2. Do you spend a lot of time out of doors every day?
3. Do you refuse from bad habits (smoking, drinking, snacking between meals)?
4. Do you limit your time you spend in front of the television and the computer?
5. Are you sporty? Do you go in for sport or join a sports club?
6. Do you keep to a healthy balanced diet?
7. Do you have a hobby?

Count your points. One point for each answer “Yes”. 7 points: You are quite healthy. 3–6 points: Not bad, but be attentive to your health. 0–2 points: Oh, dear! Change your lifestyle. You should think about your future!

Task 9. Put the word-combinations into 2 columns:

In order to be healthy …

we must	we must not

Be healthy; smoke; wash hands; clean the house; eat too much; drink the alcohol; eat the snow; breathe in fresh air; go in for sport; eat fruit and vegetables; do morning exercises; eat too many sweets; go to bed late; keep our body clean; be sleepy; sleep eight hours; visit the doctor regularly; clean the teeth; feel fine; feel sick; have headache; have a bad cold; drink very cold water.
