1.01 Задание 1. Задание на понимание основного содержания прослушанного текста

Speaker A 

In my opinion, teenagers eat too many highly processed snacks these days, and these snacks are nutritionally poor and loaded with artificial colours, flavours and refined sugars. They are also super high in calories. It's high time kids improved and changed that by replacing many of those snack habits with fruit and homemade recipes. Fresh fruit is low in calories. If you eat more fresh fruit, you'll definitely stay away from processed food. - (Fresh fruit may make your eating habits better. — Свежие фрукты могут улучшить ваши пищевые привычки) соответствует высказыванию спикера A: «If you eat more fresh fruit, you'll definitely stay away from processed food.»

Speaker B

I eat five or six portions of fresh fruit every day. I buy only seasonal fruits and veggies as they are less expensive. Fruit is tasty, healthy, and it always lifts my spirits. Apples, bananas, oranges, and kiwis come in bright colors, and it's an excellent way to fight depression. When I see a bowl of oranges on my kitchen table in the morning, I just can't help smiling. Even if you don't like fruit, you should still buy it just to enjoy its bright colors and beauty. - (Fresh fruit can put you in a good mood. — Свежие фрукты могут поднять вам настроение.) соответствует высказыванию спикера B: «Apples, bananas, oranges, and kiwis come in bright colours and it's an excellent way to fight depression.»

Speaker C

As for me, I can't say I particularly like the taste of fruit, but I still eat it on a regular basis because my appearance is very important to me. You may believe it or not, but fruit makes my skin positively glorious. Fruit fights radicals that play a major role in making us age less gracefully. Some fruit is very rich in vitamin C, which is also great for our skin. Instead of buying expensive creams with this vitamin, I'd rather eat oranges and lemons. - (Fresh fruit can make you look good. — Свежие фрукты могут помочь вам хорошо выглядеть) соответствует высказыванию спикера C: «You may believe it or not, but fruit makes my skin positively glorious.»

Speaker D

If you ask me, well, I just don't see the point of buying fresh fruit and veggies. Okay, they might be both tasty and healthy, but they are certainly not the best way to improve your health. Have you seen how much fresh fruit and vegetables cost? I don't think everybody can afford fresh strawberries in winter these days. I buy canned fruit from time to time and I also buy vitamins and food supplements. At least they don't cost a fortune like fruit. -  (Fresh fruit is too expensive for many people. — Свежие фрукты слишком дороги для многих людей.) соответствует высказыванию спикера D: «I don't think everybody can afford fresh strawberries in winter these days.»

Speaker E

Well, I'm a student and I'm about to take my A-levels so my mum says I have to eat a lot of fruit and vegetables to boost my brain power. According to my mum, berries such as blackberries and strawberries are particularly beneficial. She makes me have at least four portions of fresh fruit or vegetables every day. I guess my mother is right because I've noticed that it's easier for me to remember facts and other things and solve math problems or write essays. - (Eating fresh fruit helps you study better. — Употребление свежих фруктов помогает вам лучше учиться.) соответствует высказыванию спикера E: «... so my mum says I have to eat a lot of fruit and vegetables to boost my brain power.»

Speaker F

I have been going in for sports for a long time, and I want to make sport my career. My friends ask me how I manage to be active after such long training sessions as I may spend about five hours in the gym and then still go clubbing and dance the night away. Well, my answer is it's because I eat a lot of fresh fruit. You see, fruit helps stabilize our blood sugar much better than processed sugars. When your blood sugar crashes, it can make you feel exhausted. - (Eating fresh fruit keeps your energy levels high. — Употребление свежих фруктов поддерживает высокий уровень вашей энергии) соответствует высказыванию спикера F: «My friends ask me how I manage to be active... Well, my answer is it's because I eat a lot of fresh fruit.»
