Simon: What is a balanced diet?

Simon: 4_______?
Tom: Absolutely. By eating enough dairy foods and meat alternates, people can get essential proteins.
Simon: What about the nutritional value of canned vegetables that we buy at the supermarket?
Tom: The nutritional difference depends more on how vegetables are prepared than on whether they are bought fresh or canned.
Simon: I wonder how knowledgeable you are. You could become a professional dietitian.
Tom: It’s just my hobby to read about food and health.
Simon: I was told to avoid such foods as bread or potatoes. What’s your view?

Teacher: Now, if I remember correctly, last class we spoke about gardening and how to get the best nutritional value out of it. You all gave me excellent suggestions in your journals, and I have made comments in them, too.
Pupil: And when will you give us our journals back?
Teacher: I will give your journals back to you at the end of class today.
Pupil: OK.
Teacher: In your journals, you mentioned how the design of the garden and 1_______ are very important. Today let’s look more closely at the vegetables that we are going to plant in the garden. For example, green snap beans are known to contain twice as much Vitamin A as does the yellow variety.
Pupil: 2_______?
Teacher: Actually, soybeans, which I know that some of you have already indicated a distaste for, are far better for you than both green and yellow beans.
Pupil: Why are soybeans so important?
Teacher: Soybeans are a very rich source of Vitamin A, and they contain 10 percent vegetable protein as well.
Pupil: And what do you recommend for those 3_______?
Teacher: For those who are not bean lovers, there is still hope. I would suggest cauliflower, broccoli, and cabbage to you. Broccoli is better than cauliflower in that it contains forty times more Vitamin A and has more Vitamin B and C, too.
Pupil: And what about cabbage?
Teacher: Small 4_______ are rich in precious Vitamin C. Vitamin C, by the way, is a great agent against disease and stress. I know that you are all preparing for final exams and stress is a factor for you these days, so I thought that I might mention that.

Engineer: Today you are 1_______ where clothing materials, such as manmade fibers, are made.
Pupil: For how long have manmade fibers been used for clothing?
Engineer: 2_______ have been used to make clothing for only a little over a century, but their use is quite widespread nowadays. Rayon, the first manmade fiber commercially produced in the United States, appeared in 1910. In 1939, nylon, the first chemically synthesized fiber, was first produced in this country on a commercial basis. Since that time, the number of manmade fibers has expanded to include more than twenty types.
Pupil: Why does your factory continue to produce rayon?
Engineer: Although the list of manmade clothing fiber is long, 3_______ remains one of the most popular of all time, and that is why we continue to produce it in such great quantities here.
Pupil: And what is rayon made of?
Engineer: Rayon is made of cellulose, a naturally occurring substance found in cotton and in certain vegetables, like celery, of all things. The cellulose in rayon has been recycle and treated to make it a usable fiber for clothing.
Pupil: 4_______, isn’t it?
Engineer: Yes, it is. One of the reasons rayon is so popular for clothing is that it is soft and comfortable to wear. Most rayon washes well, too, although it does shrink when it is washed in hot water.
Pupil: Is there any problem with rayon?
Engineer: The biggest problem with rayon is that it tends to fade in sunlight. It wouldn’t be a good idea to leave a red rayon dress to dry in a sunny window. If you did that for very long, you might come back to a pink dress. And now I’d like to show you our rayon production room.

Monica: Hi, Jim. 1_______?
Jim: Oh yes, there is lots. The grass is quite high and I really have to cut it. The weeding must be done in the two flower-beds over there. The round one and the big square one. And later on I want to cut down a tree.
Monica: I’m not particularly keen on 2_______ but I’d like to mow the lawn and help to cut down the tree.
Jim: Great, Robin can rake the grass together, and we can throw that onto 3_______.
Monica: Where is the lawn mower?
Jim: It’s in the garage. 4_______. And you can plug it in right below the lamp-switch, there is a socket there. Well, it’s very kind of you to help me.
Мonica: No problem.

Question: Now that the former United Nations Oil-for-Food programme has been turned over to the Ministry of Trade (MoT), how does that affect your ministry and food production?
Answer: The public distribution system (PDS) [in which most Iraqi families receive enough free food to feed a family of four once a month] has not changed. Whoever is importing the goods, it’s still the same. When it comes to trade, they should think more about the farmers. The MoT should count what we produce instead of 1_______, for example, and then refusing our wheat. They put very strict restrictions on our crops.
Question: How important is agriculture to the Iraqi economy?
Answer: 2_______ is the main sector to provide jobs to young people instead of leaving them in the hands of terrorists. It creates jobs and 3_______. We used to produce 60 percent of our needs in wheat, except in 2003 because farmers weren’t sure if they should grow wheat when they felt war was coming. The farmers weren’t sure if they would make a profit. This year, we are ready for the winter season in wheat and barley, so we should have a good harvest.
Question: So if Iraq grows so much of its own food, is the PDS still needed?
Answer: We have had many discussions about this. It is important to keep the PDS going for poor families. If you do something different, it will make the situation unstable, so we have to make changes slowly. We talked about giving money instead of food, or making it be just for the poor. For the farmers, it would be good to end the PDS. Production would go up, especially with milk. For example, now 4_______ are losing money because the price of milk is cheaper than the price of mineral water on the market. There is no subsidy for milk and we are importing powdered milk. We used to have 14 daily cattle stations, now we have only four. The rest were sold in 1997, so this shows how the PDS affects all production.
