Hello and welcome to Zenith conference call.
English in today's lesson will be continue on with.
I'll speak in one and in this part of the lesson we will be looking at two different topics for part
one speaking and they are food and sports so we'll look at some vocabulary that will come across during
this lesson.
So the first one is ready made so it's talking about food.
So this is a food that is sold ready or almost ready to be served.
So when you go to a restaurant and you buy a food there is already prepared.
It's called a ready made food the next is take away so take away.
It's a meal or dish but from a shop or restaurant to be eaten outside the restaurant.
Home cooked food is simply food prepared at home the recipe is a set of instructions for preparing a
particular dish or a particle of food including a list of ingredients required desserts desserts the
sweets course eaten at the end of the meal so you have a fossa eater of it into is an item that is hard
to please so he or she is picky like very hard to choose what he or she wants to eat.
So you call them fussy eaters to eat like a horse means to eat a lot.
So someone that it's a lot can be said to it like a horse to work up an appetite to to do physical work
that leads to you becoming hungry processed food are foods treated with chemicals in the food industry.
So when you process a food you treat it with chemicals before you release it to customers dairy or dairy
products.
Products from animals like meal cheese or milk products.
So these are called dairy products.
Intolerance is an inability to eat food or take a drug without adverse effects mandatory is a must.
So you must do something.
It's mandatory source is simply a liquid or a similarly liquid substance served with food so you can
have like ketchup or minus.
This could be like a source or you could have a different cells when served food.
So let's begin the part one speaking on food.
The first question do you like to cook so I'll give you a sample answer and I'll give you time to answer
this same question.
So there are two options I have here.
The first one is not really no.
Most of the time I eat ready meals and takeaways.
That's one of the reasons I love visiting my mom.
You can always guarantee lovely home cooked food and the second option is yes I really like to cook.
And since moving to France I've become a much better cook.
I regularly cook French food from various buys meat dishes and fish to sweets and desserts.
I will start some traditional recipes and methods from my aunt so these two answers are comparing yes
and no.
So you can choose any of them.
And now try to answer the same question using your own answer.
But you can take a vocabulary from this quote from these answers that you have on this queen and try
to answer yours.
So do you like to cook.
Remember make a list two two three sentences
OK so let's go let's go on to the next question.
Is there any food you don't like and why.
So again I have two options.
The first one.
No not really.
I'm not a fussy eater at all.
So remember the meaning of a fussy eater.
So I'm not a fussy Turtle.
Actually I eat like a horse.
I do a lot of sports and work up an appetite and the second option I don't like processed food because
it's really bad for my body after half of that particular diet.
Eating processed food does not agree with my body and can make me feel unwell so unwell means sick.
I always avoid dairy because I have and intolerance.
So these two answers one of them says like I like to eat have nothing else to eat.
And the second one tries to talk about not being able to eat all kinds of food.
So being a fussy so try to answer the same question.
Is there any food you don't like and why.
So again give two to three sentences.
You can pause the video and try to answer that
so let's go on to the next question what kinds of food do you particularly like.
I really enjoy eating fresh fish homegrown vegetables and fruits and on special occasions.
Meat that comes from local farmers.
I also enjoy fresh eggs from neighbors and family members.
Now you don't have to use the same structure but the idea is that you need to mention a variety of food
that you like because what kinds of food do you particularly like so you can say I really enjoy eating
fresh fruit homegrown vegetables homemade foods for example fresh eggs or meat or vegetables that are
grown by farmers by local farmers so two the three sentences a game is ok for part one.
So try this question on your own.
What kinds of food do you particularly like and after you answer that you can continue with this lesson.
So let's move on to the next question.
What kinds of food are most popular in your country.
So this is similar to the previous question.
What kinds of food do you particularly like you can use your knowledge from this question to as to the
next question.
You can say fresh home grown vegetables fruits and meat are part of the staple diet in Greece or in
your country.
It depends on which country your particular dishes such as cooking meat so beef cooked in a red wine
sauce is popular along with other signature dishes or signature here means special dishes special food
of course a Greek salad is mandatory as well as a lot of all these oil as in everything so as well as
a lot of olive oil in everything so in this question.
Be sure to mention one or two of your country's dish for example Spanish step out omelet for Spain so
try to answer the same question using your own vocabulary and try to make two to three sentences complete
sentences.
So what kind of food are most popular in your country.
Let's go on to the next question.
Now you can have a strange question like this.
Do you like chocolate.
But make sure that when you get a question like that you don't just go blank like you like chocolate.
You can say yes or no.
For example yes I do but I can only eat a very dark chocolate or a chocolate that is free from dairy
or gluten so gluten is like what is made up in chocolate or any other sugary product.
So you have like a component called gluten so you can also say no I don't like chocolate.
In fact when I was 6 7 years old my mom always bought me a lot of chocolate.
But I found out that I didn't finish all of it because I was just so used to eating sugary things and
I would give most of them to my friends or to my brothers or to my sisters.
So in that way you're trying to give extra information to back up your first sentence.
And a second question here similar to the first one do you like chocolate as a child.
Sorry.
Did you love chocolate as a child.
So this is a past simple question and you need to use past habits.
You need to use words like would all used to look at a simple answer here of course when I was about
six my mom would always buy me dark chocolates.
I used to keep some of them and share them later on with my friends.
But as I grew I had to cut down on it.
So practiced these questions do you like chocolate.
Did you love chocolate as a child.
Again you can pause the video and answer these questions and continue with the video.
After that
now let's go on to sports.
So we looked at a variety of questions from food and now we are in sports.
You can have a question like this in sport do you like swimming and here's a sample answer.
I really love to go swimming.
Now you can see we are not using easy words like I like or I like I really like.
So we use higher vocabulary like I prefer.
I really love to go swimming especially in the sea or on a hot day.
There are so many great places I was swimming where I live.
So it is easy to go every day in the summer months.
How often do you swim.
I try to go swimming every day or at least three times per week.
This allows me to do some exercise in the water which is good for my overall health.
Overall here means general health so try to answer this question again.
Do you like swimming.
How often do you go to swim or how often do you swim
so let's move on to the next question Do you like to go swimming on holiday will have a simple answer.
I used to before I moved to Australia.
Now it isn't normal behavior to go swimming in the summer months nearly every day.
I prefer to swim in the sea rather than the pool as it as it is cleaner.
There are clear crisp water in beautiful surroundings close to our house which can be easily accessed
by car.
So here we have a word.
We have a phrase rather than so you can use this phrase to compare two things.
For example I prefer to play football rather than going for a walk.
I prefer to play basketball rather than sleeping in the house all day.
So you're comparing two activities and saying that one is better than the other.
Also we have a word assessed to assess is to gain some information or gain some interest into something.
For example you have the beach or you have the sea and you want to go to the sea and there are no barriers.
You can find your way to that beach.
So it's assessable.
You can easily go to the place by car or buy food or in any other means of transport that you're using.
So if we can't easily get to the place you can use the word assessed.
It can be easily assessed because I can easily get to the place without any problem so the next question
should everyone learn swimming and what no such a question.
You can use a link in Linker for example.
Or I think which is what we use to start this answer but I think it is a good skill to have as not only
can it benefit your health and overall fitness levels.
It can also be a safety skill knowing how to swim is important.
In case of accidents and water it could save your life.
Now you're trying to talk about the advantage of learning how to swim.
It could save your life.
In cases of accidents in water people should learn when they are young for enjoyment and for health
and the final question in this slide.
What activities would you do if you were spending some leisure time at a beach or near the ocean now.
In this case you need to use the conditional sentences especially in this question.
You can use the second conditional so you say if I was at the beach I would play volleyball because
it's a conditional sentence.
If I was at a beach I would play volleyball go swimming and perhaps hire a jet a jet ski.
Travelling through the waters on a jet ski is a lot of fun and a good way to explore caves coves and
small bays so you can also use your own example like if I if I was if I were at let's say a stadium
I would play football all day perhaps I would rent I would get my jersey I would get my football kids
and shoes and boots and call my friends and we would play football all day.
Something like that.
OK but you can use your own example try to give two to three sentences to back up your first answer
so please try to answer these questions on your own.
You can use the same structure.
So the first question do you like to go swimming in holiday
should everyone learn swimming.
And why and what activities would you do if you were spending some leisure time at a beach or near the
ocean.
Once you've done that you can go on with the video to the next questions.
So we have another question here.
Do you think the government should invest money in developing facilities for what is sports.
So this question has to do with your opinion what you think.
So you can use phrases like in my opinion like we have in the simple answer.
In my opinion the government should put more funding into health care and education first before committing
expenses committing expenses means investing.
It's another way of saying before investing into what is sports on the other hand.
So on the other hand we use useful comparing two things you can say on one end this happened and on
the other hand I think this should happen.
So on the other hand programs could be implemented to develop areas for what is sports which could involve
the community and provide new experiences.
Next question What sports do you like and why.
I used to enjoy classes like Zumba and Buddy combat but now I really enjoy swimming and running swimming
and running are great ways to stay fit as they allow me to experience nature as well as exercise so
in this answer we first of all looked at the past.
I used to do that but now I really enjoy doing this.
So in that way we extended our answer what sports are most popular in your country so it's something
that we have here in the country.
I currently live in football and volleyball are really popular.
There are many local football teams and volleyball tournaments I held once a month in the summer season
trying to us at these questions again.
Do you think the government should invest money in developing facilities for what is sports.
What sports do you like and why.
What sports are most popular in your country.
No let's move on to the next set of questions.
Do you like daily do you like to do a daily exercise.
Why or why not I exercise every day for at least 30 minutes.
This includes walking swimming or running in my view.
It is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle by exercising and moving the body as much as possible.
This can help you to clear your mind and stay positive.
Boys and girls at the same sports are boys and girls good at the same sports I think boys seem more
passionate about certain sports like football and rugby.
But that doesn't necessarily mean that they are better than girls.
If a person is dedicated to a sport and has the skills needed to be a success I don't think it matters
if they are a boy or girl please take time to look at the structure of these answers and you can apply
them in answering your own questions one good thing about having a structure for answers is that it
can help you in answer and even other questions that doesn't have to do with this same topic.
If you ask questions about food or if you ask questions about advertising or hobbies you can use the
same structure.
For example you can be asked do boys and girls like the same food.
This is similar to the question of boys and girls good at the same sports so you can use the same structure
but just add vocabulary to it has to do with food.
So I believe that you've been able to see a range of questions that have to do with food and sports.
And please go back to this questions try to answer them.
Go for them again and again and record yourself.
Listen to yourself and see if you were able to make two or three sentences successfully but I know that
if you're able to master these structured answers you will be able to tackle any question that has to
do with food or sports.
This next lessons the subsequent lessons will be looking at different topics and also talking about
the part two of the island speaking which is much more difficult but we are going to make it very easy
for you to understand and show you some tips and some skills you can use in answering these questions.
But for now do enjoy your time and see you at the next video.
