PART I
1 Do you have any unhealthy habits?
Yes, definitely
Because I work until 9pm and won’t be back until 10 pm, I often stay up late, very late Besides, I’m also quite busy so I don’t usually cook I eat ready meals
instead
Vocab:
Ready meal
Junk food >< Nutrition food
Fast food
Healthy food >< Unhealthy food
2 What do you do to stay healthy?
I love working out at the gym I do a lot of squat, plank as well as
weightlifting In addition, I try to have a balanced diet and often have check-ups with our GP Therefore, I’m always as fit as a fiddle
Vocab:
GP: General Practitioner (Family doctor)
Balanced diet = Healthy diet
Go for a check-up= Health check
Trang 23 What are the health benefits of playing a sport?
I think playing sports benefit us both physically and mentally When you play sports, you are giving your body time to build muscles, and to burn fat
Therefore, you will be fitter and stronger Also, you are giving your body time to
relax That’s why I enjoy working out so much
PART II
Describe a time when you were ill You should say:
when this was
what your symptoms were
how long the illness lasted
and say how it affected your life at the time (lồng ý này lên trên)
Well, the last time I was under the weather was last week I was walking back home from work and it suddenly started to rain cats and dogs, so I got wet The next day when I woke up, I was a bit off colour I got a headache, a sore throat, and a runny
nose And finally, my nose is blocked My GP said that I had a heavy cold I had to take a lot of medicines and phone in sick I was taking charge of a project
presentation at that time, and due to the situation, I had no choice but to reschedule the presentation until this week But thank God, I’m on the mend right now, after 5 days
suffering
To be at death’s door
To feel poorly
To make a speedy recovery
PART III
1 Do women pay more attention to their health than men?
I believe so Well, whenever I feel poorly, I will arrange an appointment with my
GP for a check-up But things doesn’t seem to go the same with men For
example, my dad doesn’t think he is sick until he is at death’s door Maybe it’s because we think that women are more vulnerable than men
Trang 32 Could governments do more to promote healthier lifestyle options?
I think there are still a lot of things that governments can do to encourage
healthier lifestyle People should be both physically and mentally healthy
Therefore, both of the aspects should receive attention equally For physical health, governments can raise taxes on junk food and invest more in public
exercise equipment For mental health, I believe most of mental problems result from stress Therefore, governments should come up with ideas to
reduce working hours of employees as well as workload of students Of course,
this reduction must be accompanied by an increase in productivity and
quality
3 Do you think most people worry more about their health as they get older?
Obviously, people will pay more attention to their health problems when they
go grey The reason is that when we are older, our immune system will weaken And as a result, we’ll get sick more easily Besides, the sickness will also affect us more badly
