It is very important to have healthy teeth. Good teeth helps us to chew our food. They
also help us to look nice.
How does a tooth go bad? The decay begins in a little crack in the enamel covering of the
toot. This happens after germs and bits of food have collected there. Then the decay slowly
spreads inside to tooth. Eventually, poison goes into the blood, and we may feel quite ill.
How can we keep out teeth healthy? First, we ought to visit our dentist twice a year. He
can fill the small holes in our teeth before they destroy the teeth. He can examine our teeth to
check that they are growing in the right way. Unfortunately, many peole wait until they have
toothache before they see a dentist.
Secondly, we should brush our teeth with a toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste at least
twice a day – once after breakfast and once before we go to bed. We can also use wooden
toothpicks to clean between our teeth after a meal.
Thirdly, we should eat food that is good for our teeth and our body: milk, cheese, fish,
brown bread, potatoes, red rice, raw vegetables, and fresh fruit. Chocolate, sweets, biscuits
and cakes are bad, especially when we eat them between meals. They are harmful because
they stick to our teeth and cause decay.

2. New lesson: I. READING
1. Read the passage and decide whether the sentences are true (T) or false (F).
In the past few decades, the countryside has experienced lots of changes. Because of
population growth, more products are needed. Therefore, more factories have been
constructed, and young people have more choice of jobs apart from becoming farmers. When
big cities have become more and more polluted, the fresher atmosphere in the countryside
attracts more people. Rich people who live in the city for their work often buy a second
home in the countryside to spend their weekend and holiday. As a result, the countryside is
no longer a small community of rural people. In fact, in many parts of the countryside, there
are urban people from nearby cities. Additionally, the introduction of the internet creates
more opportunities for increasing rural people's knowledge. Many farmers have used
machines for tasks that used to be done by hand, which helps them save labour. In the near
future, it is expected that the countryside will gradually become more similar to big cities.

A recent survey conducted by TIRA, a Vietnamese research company, highlights problems
about the lifestyles of Vietnamese teenagers in urban areas. There is an imbalance in their
consumption of time for studying and recreational activities. On average, these teenagers
spend 9.5 hours a day on studies at school and at home. They only have about four hours for
entertainment. Most of this time is spent on watching television and the internet, where they
chat through social networks. The teenagers admit that they use computers to play games and
to chat with friends much more than using it for studying purposes. The survey also shows that
during summer months, despite having much more free time than during school years, these
teenagers still fail to manage their time properly. They stay in bed longer, and then get hooked
on games and TV. The time for computers and TV increases significantly to about five or six
hours a day, while there is almost no time for physical outdoor activities.
