Writing: an essay
A In pairs, answer these questions.
1 What food can you buy at school?
2 Is it good for you? Is it nutritious?
3 Do you think it is important that healthy food is sold at schools? Why?
В Read this notice from a school magazine. Do you agree? Why / Why not?
C Read this essay below. What does the writer think? Do you agree with him / her?
Too many people today eat unhealthy food. The problem usually begins when we are children, which is why some people believe that schools should ban junk food.
B
ittasks well known that junk food contains a lot of fat and sugar. as a result, it can make people overweight and cause even more serious diseases like diabetes, in addition, junk food is like a drug - the more you eat it. the more addicted you become. I am sure, nothing is worse than this.
C
On the other hand, some people say that we should be able to eat what we like. They believe that what we eat at home is more important, and that is why the food sold at school canteens cannot really harm us.
D
But think how much time we spend at school and it becomes obvious that what we eat there is a substantial part of our daily menu, therefore, I am sure that what we eat at the canteen should be both fresh and nutntious. Personally though, l prefers to rely on my lunchbox.
F
To conclude. I think that because we spend so much time at school, the habits we develop there, for example what we eat. are important. I believe schools should make sure that students eat healthily.
