Junk Food and Health

Junk food includes candy, potato chips, and cookies. Eating this type of
food too much is like eating poison. Today, it is common for kids to weigh too
much and be less fit than children in the past. That is because their diets are
worse than they used to be. This is a serious problem. Evidence shows that
5 bad diets can cause diseases that have no cure now.
What can we do? We can reduce the amount of soda we drink. Soda is
mostly sugar. It does not supply our bodies with anything
necessary. We should also limit snacks like potato
chips. You can eat a bit of junk food sometimes. Just
io do not eat it every day! Schools can help, too. Some US
schools have stopped the sale of soda at lunch. Do
you have any other ideas?

This Year’s Vacation

Dear Mom,
I have made a decision about this year’s vacation. I am going to spend it
in an ancient castle. The castle is in the southern part of England. This area,
which was once part of an empire, has many places to visit. I have rented a
5 room in the castle for a week.
Outside, there is an attractive, giant garden to explore. I will be able to
view all of the incredible flowers and plants there. I prefer visiting gardens
to going to the beach.
My flight will leave in the evening from here.

packing a bit closer to the date I am leaving.
I will write to you from the castle !
All my love,
Susan

The coach also encourages us to beat our own

lot of work, but I am enjoying the challenge!
Love,
Carlos

Every April, we celebrate the earth. But the earth is in trouble. Recently,

produce dirty smoke that goes into the air. We also waste
10 a lot. We throw things away rather than recycle them.
Our task is to protect the earth immediately. We
need to be more responsible, or we will all be in trouble.
