How important is it to keep us healthy ? A group of young people got together to discuss this question. Here’re parts of their discussion.

PETER: I’d like to stay healthy, but to be honest, I only eat food that tastes good. And if food tastes good, it’s usually bad for you, isn’t it? Cola tastes better than water, for example.

TONY: Well, food that is bad for you can taste good! But I prefer not to eat much food that is fried, like, er, French fries. Do you eat fast food, Laura?

LAURA: Do I eat fast food? Never! I love to eat food that is healthy. I want to take care of my health, so I eat mainly fruit and vegetables. Oh! And I stay away from sugar, you do too, don’t you?

TONY: Hm, yes. And I think most people agree that fruit and vegetables are good for health. But, um, I would say that fast food itself isn’t always bad for you, but too much of it is not good.

LAURA: Actually, did you know that it’s been found in laboratory testing that some types of oil are really bad for us? So I don’t eat anything that’s been cooked in oil. Also, did you know that some foods might cause cancer? Like burnt barbecued meat. I’ve heard eating burnt food like this can increase the risk of cancer.

PETER: Really! But I love to eat well-cooked meat, even if it is a little burnt. It’s delicious, and meat isn’t really dangerous, is it?

LAURA: Oh! Yes, it is! I never eat meat. It’s not good for our health at all. If I were you, I’d eat nuts instead.

TONY: Well, I agree it’s good to eat lots of fruit and vegetables, but I think it’s also fine to eat some meat or fish. People who eat a balanced diet should be healthier than those who only eat biscuits and hamburgers, shouldn’t they? I prefer to only eat food that I like, but isn’t it important to eat food that’s healthy, even if you don’t like it? The main thing is to have a good balance.

We need to be responsible(负责任) for our environment. Being a frugal consumer(节俭的消费者) is one way to help. But, what exactly does that mean?

  Use It Up  You can use things up instead of wasting them. Use the last little piece of soap(肥皂). Don't throw away any bits of the biscuit at the bottom of the box.

  Wear It Out You do not always need to have new things. Suppose your trainers have been broken , but they still fit you. Repair them and wear them longer. You don't have the latest iPhone until the old one doesn't work any more. Then you can get a new one. Think twice before replacing (替换)something that still works.

  Make It Do  When something you want is not on hand, look for something else to take its place. Suppose you are packing your lunch for tomorrow and want a butter sandwich, but you have no butter . Have a cheese sandwich instead so that you can use all of the cheese. Learn to fix broken toys instead of just throwing them away. With a little thought, you can make something do, instead of buying something new.

  Do Without  Think about all those things that you would like to buy. Do you really need them? How long will you really play with the new toy you saw on TV? Using up your world's resources(资源). And, getting rid of the things we don't want any more takes up even more resources and space.
