Americans, for example, typically eat 1,500 calories shouldn't, have to, mustn't.
more than the 2,200 they really need every day. But do
people from other countries eat better?

People across the world make their meals from basically

the same ingredients. So we all eat meat, poultry, fish,
grains (such as rice) fruit and vegetables, but they
don't make the same type of meals. People in different
countries use the ingredients in different ways. We can
learn from the areas of the world where they have a good
diet and as a result live longer and are healthier.

Take meat, for example. Scientists know it is not good

to eat a lot of meat. They found this studying people in
Asia, where people use meat to add flavour to vegetable
dishes and not as the main ingredient. That way they
get the taste of meat without eating too much. Unlike
the Asians, Argentineans are famous for eating meat,
but they always choose the leanest cuts and in this way
they avoid eating as much fat as the North Americans.
Other countries such as some African countries replace
meat with nuts. The result is they don't have some of
the health problems Northern Europeans and North
Americans have.

But maybe the best advice comes from those French

people who can eat a lot and stay slim. Their secret
- take your time and put your knife and fork down
between each bite. People who eat slowly enjoy the
taste more. They also know when they have eaten too
much!

Example
Americans think that people in their country eat
unhealthily. _X_

Many Americans are fat because they eat the

wrong foods.

People are fat because they don't eat enough

vegetables.

Lucky United Win League
Malcaster United fans everywhere were tired but
happy last night. They were happy because their team
won a third Premier League title after their game
against Borneford. The match was exhausting for most
fans and most of them were too tired to celebrate.

It was the last game of the season and, with a three

point lead over Shellsea, they only needed one point to
win. For Shellsea to take the title, they had to win their
match and hope Malcaster lost theirs. The Malcaster
fans in the stadium spent half their time watching the
game and the other half looking at the Internet on
their mobile phones. They were trying to find out the
score in the Shellsea match. Shellsea were playing
Donchester. They scored a goal very early on and were
three goals in front at half time. At the same time at
Malcaster, everything was going wrong.

Their star player Silvero was playing badly. As usual, his

acting was better than his football. He fell down a lot,
holding his shins. Then the Malcaster goalkeeper broke
his thumb and had to leave the field. A few minutes
later, two Malcaster players were sent off for arguing
with the referee. There were now only nine players, so it
laughing wasn't going to be easy for Malcaster to win.

coughing Then the new Malcaster goalkeeper hurt his shoulder.

He didn't go off, but everyone could see it was painful
blowing and he couldn't move very quickly. Then, just one
ringing minute from the end of the match, A Borneford player
just missed the goal by inches. So the game ended
with no goals being scored. Malcaster were the

ZED champions - thanks to good luck.

Helping animals in Britain

British people are animal lovers. As a result, there are
many famous animal charities which help animals in
trouble.

The biggest and best known of these is the RSPCA

(Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals). It started in the 1820s and now has 33
hospitals and 33 centres in the UK. Its job is to protect
animals. They not only help animals that have been
hurt, but they also teach people how to look after
animals and ask the government to make laws to
protect animals. The RSPCA need money and people
to help them with their work. Volunteers can help with
fundraising, work with animals in animal centres, or
they can visit people's homes to check they know how Сггь release- 6arbon diwide into the- atmosphere.
to look after animals.

The RSPCA looks after all animals. The Wildfowl and

Wetlands Trust ( W W T ) looks after birds and other
animals which live in or near the water. This charity
was started in the 1940s. They have got nine centres
and they give protection to a lot of birds. Changes in
the way we live, the way we farm and pollution (for
example from oil tankers) can cause problems for all
birds. The charity teaches people about birds and
studies the way birds live so people can understand
how to protect them. They also need people to give
