Exercise 3.5

Put the verbs in brackets in the correct form.

Dear Marsha,

I’m not sure what to do. I’m thinking of becoming a vegetarian, but some of my friends say it’s a bad idea. They say that if I (1) … (stop) eating meat, my body (2) … (not get) the things it needs to stay healthy. Are my friends right?

Thanks,

Yuri, age 14

Dear Yuri,

Millions of people are vegetarians and they are perfectly healthy. You have to be careful, though. If you (3) … (give) up eating meat completely and only (4) … (eat) chocolate and crisps, that (5) … (obviously/be) very bad for you. If people (6) … (not eat) properly, they (7) … (get) ill. But if you (8) … (eat) lots of fruit and salad, you (9) … (get) all the things you need to stay healthy. You’re only 14 years old. If you (10) … (live) at home with your parents, and you probably do, you’ll have to ask them what they think too. Do you expect that your mum (11) … (start) cooking special meals for you as soon as you (12) … (tell) her about your decision? I believe that if you (13) … (think) about this carefully, you (14) … (put) off the decision of becoming a vegetarian until you (15) … (be) a bit older. After you (16) … (make) up your mind, you (17) … (have) to take the responsibility for yourself, so think carefully!

Best wishes,

Marsha
