VOCABULARY
Read the text and fill in the blanks with the correct option from the box. There are two words
you DON’T need to use.
angry healthy sports bicycle quick

athletes exercise cook save salad
easy dishes
Poli, our university, received a group of 12 international students last semester and Poli students had
the opportunity to exchange a lot of ideas with them and to compare our culture with different
cultures. At gastronomy, for example, Europeans and Chinese are very good, and they
cook
very well. They prepare delicious dishes
for lunch and dinner. And
French girls usually eat very healthy

food. They prefer salads, fruit and low-fat products.
We discovered that some of the Latinamerican male students are good athletes
. They
enjoy going to the gym, riding bicycle

and playing soccer. Sports and
exercise
are important in their lives.
International students don’t worry about money very much. In contrast, Colombians try to
save
money, and bargain or negotiate prices all the time. In Spanish we call it
“regatear”.
And talking about personality, Colombians and Latinamericans are happy and joyful people. We
celebrate everything. Europeans are different from us. They are usually very serious and sometimes
we think they are angry

because they don’t smile. They can help people with location
and give directions in their cities, if we need that. But we prefer to use Waze or Google Maps. It’s
quick
, practical, easy
and we don’t have to talk to serious people. 😊

GRAMMAR - EXERCISE I
Read what Andy Piscola says about sports and a nice life and choose the correct option in
each case. Use capital letters if necessary.
This is what Andy Piscola, a Sport and Exercise Psychologyst from Brisbane says about sports,
healthy eating and healthy mind:
If you want to be happy in your life you need to do what you love, eat healthy and do
[ Seleccionar ]
exercise. Everything is possible.
Eating healthy is not eating only fruit and vegetables. It is having a balanced diet. There are much
delicious products you can include in a nice meal, but everything has to be moderated:
[ Seleccionar ]
eat or fish (protein), [ Seleccionar ]
potatoes, some
salad, a glass of wine, and a [ Seleccionar ]

dessert! [ Seleccionar ]
sugar is not bad for your health and it can make you [ Seleccionar ]
person in the
world! I also suggest that you cook at home. It is [ Seleccionar ]

going to a restaurant
and you can use the ingredients you want. However, it is not as comfortable
as having a chef in a
restaurant.
Exercise is also very important. Some people think they have to do [ Seleccionar ]
exercise every day and that is not true. 20 minutes of exercise a day is a good quantity. When you
are [ Seleccionar ]
active and better
trained, you can do a few minutes more. You can
start by doing exercise at home, and then you can go to the gym or to a park the nearest
your house.
Hydration is also very important. So, drink [ Seleccionar ]

water while you exercise,
specially if you live in a [ Seleccionar ]

place or if it is a hot and dried season of the
year.

READING
The book You Only Live Twice by Ian Felming

tells us that James Bond was born in Scotland in
1924, and he didn’t have any brothers or sisters.

When he was eleven, his parents died in a
climbing accident in Switzerland, so he went to
live in English with his aunt. When he was twelve,
he went to Eton, a famous private school, but he
didn’t like it there. He left after only one year and
went to Fettes, his father’s old school. James
wasn’t a good student and he didn’t study very
much, but he was very good at sports.
He left school in 1941 and worked as a secret

agent for the British nave in World War 2. After
the war James Bond stayed in the British Secret
Service, but he didn’t get his famous “licence to
kill” number (007, of course) until 1950. He
married Teresa di Vicenzo on New Year’s Day
1962, but they weren’t married for long -his wife
died on their wedding night. And for the rest of
James Bond’s life… well, watch the movies!
Extreme sports involve some degree of danger,

and lots of excitement. Many people choose
these alternative sports over traditional options
like soccer or tennis.
