Topics for talking on page 14. Read and recite the following short passagesTopic 1: Vegetarians are healthier than people who eat meatI don’t agree that vegetarians are healthier than people who eat meat. For example，a diet consisting of chips and bananas is vegetarian，but few people would consider such a diet very healthy. On the other hand，a diet that includes plenty of whole grains，fruits，vegetables and a good source of calcium like low-fat dairy products is healthy. Although vegetarian diets can be healthy，nu tritional awareness is important. It’s reported that vegetarian teens often do not get enough minerals such as calcium，iron and zinc.I see things slightly differently. I agree that vegetarians are healthier than people who eat meat. Most studies show that vegetarians have about a per cent lower risk of death from heart disease than meat-eaters. Fewer vegetarians are overweight. A vegetarian diet represents a major health benefit because fruits and vegetables supply a lot of vitamins and fibre.Topic 2: Staying a teenager forever would be greatI agree that staying a teenager forever would be great. Everybody would like to be young forever.This is a golden period in life. Teenagers are youthful and healthy. Life is easy for them because they don’t have a s many worries as adults do. And life is full of hopes for them because they have the future ahead of them and the opportunity to try anything they like. I’m not sure that’s true. I don’t think staying a teenager forever would be a great thing. Teenagers a re under a lot of pressure because of their studies. They also need financial support from their parents so they can’t do many things or make decisions independently，Life would be more colourful as an adult. If we stayed teenagers forever，how could we experience the happiness of being an adult？Topic 3: Making good friends is more important to me than spending time with family Some people think that spending time with family is more important than making good friends. That’s a good point，but I think making good friends is more important than spending time with my family. I benefit a lot from talking to my friends. Friends are a huge part of our lives. Nobody could live without friends. My friends go through the same experiences as me and because of this；they can give me advice when I have a problem. They always help me when I’m in need. We can talk about everything. We can share our happiness and our sorrow.I take your point，but I don’t think making good friends is more important than spending time with my family. I prefer to spend time with my family rather than make friends with my peers. My parents know more about me than anyone else. They are always the ones who I turn to when I am in trouble. I often spend time with them，talking about my worries and my hopes for the future. They like to share their experiences with me too. Family members are definitely more important to me than friends.Topic 4: If I want to be happy in the future，I must have a good jobSomeone told me that having a good job doesn’t necessarily make you happy. That might be tree，but in my opinion，a good job is necessary if I want to be happy in the future. There are a number of different reasons why I think this. Firstly，a good job can offer us a good salary. Money is not everything but you cannot afford many things you need without it. Secondly，a highly-paid job is always a big challenge. I enjoy being challenged. Furthermore，a good salary may offer you more opportunities to help others and to relax.Perhaps you are mistaken. I don’t agree that I must have a good job if I want to be happy inthe future. Before we discuss this，we need to talk about what true happiness is. The answer to this question lies in the hearts of many people around the world. True happiness is to feel with your heart. And it is also to feel and experience various things during our lives. We have more important things to value in life than a good salary.Topic 5: Good marks indicate how smart you areSome people believe that good marks indicate how smart you are，but I see things differently. School is not everything. Success and happiness cannot be measured by good marks. Students should not be so stressed by their studies. This can often have a bad effect on their health. Even if we don’ t get good marks in our studies，we can be successful in many other things in life.Good marks indicate how smart you are. That’s how I feel. Doing well in exams is the only way to succeed in a highly competitive world. Some people don’t think school is very important，but I think it is extremely important. Good marks show how well you have studied and how capable you are. This is what universities and employers care about.Topic 6: Learning a foreign language is importantI do think that learning a foreign language is important. Language is an important tool for people to communicate with each other，as well as a way to pass on their culture and knowledge，Nowadays，the number of people traveling to other countries is increasing. Mastering a foreign language is becoming a must for them to live in a foreign country or understand other nationalities better.I don’t think that learning a foreign language is important. Take myself for example，I spent some time in Britain on an exchange program. I spent a lot of time learning English before I went abroad. It has been almost two years since I came back and I have forgotten a lot of English because I hardly use it now. Spending too much time on a foreign language is a waste of time. Topic 7: Friendship is an important part of my lifeI think friendship is an important part of my life. It has been said that there is nothing more valuable than a good friend. I truly believe this. Friendship is not only important，but essential. In our daily life，we may encounter many difficulties and experience many ups and downs. Friends are those we can turn to for help. We all need friends. Without friendship，our lives would not bevery meaningful.Topic 8: A good friend must be honest，kind and have a sense of humorIn my point of view，a good friend must be honest，kind and have a sense of burnout. They must also be trustworthy and loyal. These two characteristics go hand-in-hand. When we know someone will be loyal to us，we are on the road to a true friendship. When we know someone is trustworthy and loyal，we will take the risk that friendship requires. How can I expect to share my secrets or relax with a friend who is not loyal to me？Topic 9: One or two good friends are better than 100 acquaintancesI agree that it is better to have one or two good friends than 100 acquaintances. You can share your emotions and feelings with your good friends. Whenever you are in trouble，no matter where you are，they will reach out and help you. However，acquaintances might not be those who you can turn to for help. Ever if you had 100 acquaintances，you would not be close to any of them. You would not exchange ideas or opinions with them. You would not tell them your secrets or ask them for advice. That’s the biggest difference betw een good friends and acquaintances.Skill building 3 Proofreading1.
