1) Which do you prefer to eat, lunch or dinner? Why?
I prefer to eat lunch. I usually have a good appetite during lunchtime. I will have a varietyof foods for lunch, which can provide different nutrients to my body. Besides, I don’t have toworry too much about getting fat if I eat some food of high calorie because I often do someexercises in the afternoon. According to some science research, one should not eat muchduring the dinner; otherwise, one will put on weight or have some problems with his stomach.So I often eat some vegetables and fruits at dinner.
2) Do you think there are any benefits from eating breakfast?
Sure, there are lots of benefits. Eating breakfast will provide your body with enough energyso that you can study or work more efficiently in the morning. I would say, eating breakfast isa must for a healthy diet. People who do not eat breakfast will be haunted by many kinds ofdiseases in their later years. Some people often skip breakfast in an effort to lose weight, butthat's not a good idea. Skipping meals, especially breakfast, can actually make weight controlmore difficult. Breakfast skippers tend to eat more food than usual at the next meal, or nibbleon high-calorie snacks to release hunger. There are some studies suggesting that peopletend to add more body fat when they eat fewer, larger meals than when they eat the samenumber of calories in smaller and regular meals.
3) Are you willing to try some new food?
Yes. I always like trying new food. Nowadays, food is far more than something that fills ourstomachs. Different kinds of food stand for different cultures. For example, the popular TVprogram named A Bite of China represents our marvellous Chinese food culture. I believe newfood stands for a new culture. New food also means a new life. I like experiencing new life, justas I like tasting new food. As a southerner, I felt very excited to try many kinds of northernfood when I first went to Beijing. Since then I fell in love with many delicious foods there.
Or: When I came to Suzhou for the first time, I went to try some local snacks. They werevery delicious, so I would suggest you going ……
4) Which do you prefer—to eat one big meal or to eat several small snacks?
I would prefer to eat several small snacks. Big meals are usually the same except slightdifferences. But snacks are of different features and tastes. It is a special experience to tastedifferent small snacks without getting too full. Especially when I arrived at a new place, I wouldlike to try some local snacks. That was amazing.
5) What do you consider to be a healthy diet?
I would think a healthy diet should first include adequate nutrition that the body needs.We usually consider such nutrients as protein, fat, vitamin, minerals, and fibre when we talkabout nutrition. A healthy diet should include some food that can give the body enough energyand other kinds of food that can provide sufficient fibre. Some people would say that a healthydiet should exclude those foods of high calorie. Actually, as long as the calorie you take fromfood provides adequate energy to your body, the diet is healthy. The pre-requisite is that youshould keep a balanced diet.
6) Do you know how to make (prepare) a meal?
Yes, I often cook delicious food. Making meals for my family is really a great pleasure. Forexample, in Spring Festival, my family will prepare a feast for the big family, including mygrandparents, my uncles, aunts and their children. I will cook some dishes and as well as helpmy parents to do the cooking. Knowing that my family enjoy the food makes me extremelyhappy.
