Part 1. Texts

do not need to use. Write your answers on the separate answer sheet.

Tips for Healthy Eating

1 _______
You need to get into a routine with your meal. Plan for them and don’t skip any
of the three meals you need. You may also want to include a snack or two in your
daily eating routine. You really do need to learn how to eat “responsibly”. Make this
a priority and it’ll become automatic, just like taking a shower, going to work, or
brushing your teeth.
2 _______
Instead of deep frying, try grilling, stir frying, microwaving, baking, and even
boiling. You should also try fresh or even dried herbs and spices to add flavour to
your food. Before you eat any type of meat, be sure to trim the fat and skin off it.
3 ________
Drinks that contain sugar are major source of empty energy. What this means,
is that the drink contains a lot of energy that your body may not need, and it doesn’t
contain any vitamins or minerals. If you plan to drink sugary drinks, don’t go
overboard – limit yourself to one a day.
4 ________
Always go with fresh foods as much as possible. They are loaded much more
with the staff that keeps you healthy. “Foods” found in bags or cans have been altered
and highly processed, making them empty of essential nutrients you need.
5 ________
Instead of reaching for a cookie or candy bar, ask yourself what’s eating you.
Are you feeling stressed, pressured, hurt, depressed, anxious, or bored? Try not to
stuff down your feelings. Only use food for what it’s meant to be used for – fuel for
your body and mind and that’s it.

A Stop thinking about diets

B Schedule time to eat
C Avoid excess sweet beverages
D Stop your emotional eating
E Avoid prepackaged foods
F Take snack food with you
G Learn your healthy cooking
H Drink plenty of water

Odd Jobs

When Jane Alkhouri thinks of her summer job two years ago, she can’t help
but laugh. “The place was a Gong Show” Alkhouri says of the job she landed after
graduating from high school. It was in a lab that promised balding people a fresh crop
of hair. “You had to apply these funny-looking solutions on their heads and then
you’d have to put a heat cap on their heads for 15 minutes and repeat the procedure
twice.” The lab drew customers through newspaper advertisements, but didn’t
provide any guarantees on hair growth.
Unlike working at traditional places such as concession stands service stations
or day camps, out-of-the-ordinary jobs such as Alkhouri’s leave a lasting impression.
Although she can make fun of her job now, the experience taught her to start looking
for summer work as early as possible. She’s not alone when it comes to quirky stories
about summer jobs.
When Lyle Baker was 16, he worked as a quarry for the Vancouver police
department’s dog squad. Baker’s job was to hide – in an abandoned building or up a
tree – before police officers let their dog-in-training loose to find him. “I was the
actual prey”, Baker says to the summer job that he got through friends. It lasted part
time for two years while he finished high school.
Heather Brittan landed her job through a technical college, where an inspector
recommended her because of her outgoing personality. As a park naturalist at the
Okanagan Lake Provincial Park in British Columbia, Brittan gave talks on wildlife,
conducted nature walks, caught bats and fed a rattlesnake. She had to keep the snake
food – dead mice and rats – in her home freezer. “ I was living with somebody else
and I had to clearly mark the box, “Dead mice, do not eat”. Brittan also had to ensure
a neighbouring cat didn’t eat the mice she would thaw out on the sidewalk.
An unusual summer job can provide benefits besides being the source of
entertaining stories. Brittan says her job helped her develop new skills, as well as
giving her the chance to work in an environment she loved. “It was an awesome
experience; it got me out there believing that I could actually do something.”

1 Which of the following is TRUE about Jane Alkhouri’s summer job?

A The job Jane found was advertised in the newspaper.
B The clients of the lab were attracted via mass media ads.
C The customers were promised new hair in 15 minutes.
D The laboratory offered a job to graduate hairdressers.

2 What was Jane’s attitude to her summer job?

A She was ashamed of cheating people.
B She found it exciting to treat people.
C She was proud of having an unusual job.
D She thought her job was ridiculous.
 3 What is said about Lyle Baker and his job as a quarry?
A He learned about the job from a police officer.
B He worked as a quarry after leaving school.
C He took care of the police department’s dogs.
D He was supposed to get out of the dogs’ sight.

4 Which of the following is NOT mentioned about Heather Britton?

A She fed a neighbouring cat with mice and rats.
B She was sharing her apartment with a roommate.
C She guided the visitors through the park.
D She got her job thanks to a college teacher.

5 It can be inferred from the text that each of the three jobs.
A seemed quite peculiar
B was rather difficult to get
C meant a lot of entertainment
D gave a wealth of valuable experience
