Telling the Whole Food Truth As a teacher of whole-food vegetarian cookery, I do feel a certainsympathy with the ‘Men for Meat’ group There is both confusion and just plain, unappetizing cooking inthis area, when a whole-food/ vegetable diet should and can be highly nutritious and utterly delicious

The words ‘whole-food’ and ‘vegetarian’ are not synonymous: vegetarians do not eat any ‘fish, flesh orfowl’ Most eat dairy products Those who don’t are called vegans I tell students not to turn vegetarian untilthey have become knowledgeable about nutrition, and especially about protein It’s very easy to become asick vegetarian

And a whole-food diet just consists of eating the whole of food, with nothing added, and nothingtaken away For example, you eat whole-wheat flour, not white flour, which has had had bleach added In all,

no refined carbohydrates are eaten and very fatty and additive-laden foods are avoided and the stress is onfresh products of the best quality And that’s all – except you must then find recipes which are both healthyand delicious because you’ll have to cook it all yourself Very few ready-bought meals fulfill bothrequirements

76 ‘Men for Meat’ is a _

A cookery group B group of men C group of vegetarians D group that eat all kinds of

food

77 The writer of this article feels a ‘certain sympathy’ for this group because _

A She is a vegetarian B They don’t know much about vegetarian cooking

C “whole food” and “vegetarian” are not the same D her students do not eat meat

78 A whole food diet _

A has a lot of nutrition B is easy to eat C is added with flour D is often fresh.

79 According to the writer, what is wrong with ready bought meals for vegetarians?

A They can’t be both healthy and delicious C They contain some additives

B They can be cooked easily D They have best quality

80 What is NOT true about the writer?

B She is a vegetarian D She dislikes ready bought meals

The Chinese white Dolphin is an extremely beautiful creature This type of dolphin was first noticed

by Per Osbeck in 1757 He described snow-white dolphins at play in the Pearl River Delta in China Nodolphins, however, have been seen in this area since 1972 The dolphins have, instead, moved to watersnorth of Lantau Island in Hong Kong Chinese White Dolphins are about the same size and shape asbottlenose dolphins (the type that can be seen at Ocean park) Their colouring, however, is very different,ranging from pure white in Chinese waters, to pink and grey elsewhere In fact, Chinese fishermen call them

"white ghosts", and traditionally believe them to be reincarnations of fishermen lost at sea Very little isknown about these animals Scientists are still debating which species the dolphins belong to They are notsure if they are actually part of the same species found in waters around Indonesia and northern Australia, or

if they are completely different subspecies that is found anywhere else in the world Tragically, however,there may not be enough time for scientists to find the answer to this question, because the dolphins are invery great danger or becoming extinct The main threat comes from the largest construction project in HongKong's history - the new airport on Chek Lap Kok Island off Lantau The building work here involvesmassive use of explosives, and huge areas of the sea are being turned into land Obviously, the destruction ofthis area is having a terrible effect on sea life In addition, matters are made worse by the fact that the waters

There are thousands of types of animals on earth, but only few types are popular as pets Peopleusually keep pets for company The most common pets are cats and dogs But why did people choose thesetwo animals and not, for example, pigs, or chickens? The most likely explanation is that dogs and cats havespecial qualities which have always made them more suitable as animal companions Some of these qualitiesare easy to understand For example, dogs and cats do not need to be kept in cages in order to remain close totheir owners They are also both very clean-living animals They are active during the day, the same time thatpeople are usually active The physical size of dogs and cats is another important reason for their success ascompanions They are a good size, since most cats and dogs are not so large that they are dangerous, and not

so small that they are unnoticeable These qualities mean that dogs and cats can live quite comfortably withhuman They do not disturb people's routines or change their way of life But there is another reason whythese two animals are the most popular pets Most people need to feel loved and wanted, and cats and dogsmake people feel wanted Cats and dogs need people as well They show this through the noises they makeand they way they like being touched To someone who doesn't like animals, keeping a pet probably seems

like a lot of trouble They need to be fed regularly and exercised, and they can be noisy and expensive Butfor pet owners, these disadvantages are not important, because of the friendship that pets offer Clearly, catsand dogs will continue to be the most popular pets.
