Nowadays it is very popular to keep a healthy lifestyle. I think that it is the very good fashion to be healthy. Many people all over the world spend many hours in the gym. However a healthy lifestyle includes not only some physical exercises or keeping regular hours but also healthy food.
В наше время очень популярно вести здоровый образ жизни. Я думаю, что мода на здоровый образ жизни – это очень хорошо. Многие люди во всем мире проводят много часов в спортзале. Однако здоровый образ жизни включает в себя не только физические упражнения или соблюдение режима дня, но и здоровую пищу.
It is very difficult for modern people to eat only healthy food because they are very busy and it is easier to have a bite or eat fast food. Moreover, some people think that healthy food is expensive. Of course, these statements are partially true. However, they are also the parts of the stereotypes.
Современным людям очень трудно употреблять только здоровую пищу, потому что они очень заняты, и намного легче просто перекусить или употребить в пищу фаст-фуд. Более того, некоторые люди считают, что здоровая пища – это дорого. Конечно, эти утверждения отчасти верны. Тем не менее, они также являются частью стереотипов.
Healthy food is also can be cooked fast. For example, it takes about fifteen minutes to cook buckwheat with fresh vegetables. You spend so little time to cook it but your organism gets so many vitamins. You also can cook a healthy sandwich using vegetables and whole-wheat bread.
Здоровую пищу также можно быстро приготовить. Например, на приготовление гречки со свежими овощами уходит около пятнадцати минут. Тратится так мало времени на приготовление, но организм получает так много витаминов. Также можно приготовить здоровый бутерброд, используя для его приготовления овощи и цельнозерновой хлеб.
I can agree that cooking healthy food may require much money, for example, in respect to seafood or nuts. However, people spend more money buying potato crisps or other kinds of fast food. Some time ago my family began to eat only healthy food, so I can say that our expenses have not increased.
Я могу согласиться, что приготовление здоровой пищи может потребовать много денег, например, если речь идет о морепродуктах или орехах. Однако люди тратят больше денег на покупку картофельных чипсов или других видов фаст-фуда. Некоторое время назад моя семья начала употреблять только здоровую пищу, и я могу сказать, что наши расходы не увеличились.
Healthy food is not only fruits and vegetables. Seafood, dairy products, nuts and even meat are also can be healthy food if it is cooked in a right way. Healthy food can be not only healthy but also delicious.
Здоровое питание — это не только фрукты и овощи. Морепродукты, молочные продукты, орехи и даже мясо также могут относиться к здоровой пище, если их правильно приготовить. Здоровая пища может быть не только полезной, но и вкусной.
Эссе / сочинение 1
Fast food is very popular and saves time for busy working people. However, many experts say that it is not completely healthy. Do you know a person who has never been to McDonald’s? McDonald’s is
the leading global foodservice retailer serving millions of people in
more than 100 countries each day. McDonald’s restaurants sell what is
called “fast” or “junk” food — hamburgers, chips and so on. Such food is
very popular, especially with children and teenagers.
Personally, I adore hamburgers, cheeseburgers, apple pies, muffins
and fruit cocktails. This food is tasty, cheap and ubiquitous. What is
more, going to McDonald’s saves much time and effort. I don’t have to go
to a supermarket, prepare meals and wash the dishes when I eat out.
Besides, I like the holiday atmosphere of McDonald’s. There I can relax,
enjoy the food and celebrate some event with my friends and relatives.
But experts say that fast food makes people overweight and even obese
and elevates the risk of diabetes and cancer. If your food includes
hamburgers, chips, hot dogs, pizzas and fizzy drinks like Coke, Pepsi,
Sprite and others, you are facing a serious problem threatening your
health. Such food is full of chemical additives. For example, a can of
Coke contains about eight teaspoons of sugar and artificial sweeteners.
Moreover, there is a risk of food poisoning.
To sum it up, we should think more about our health. We should try to
avoid fast food and eat more fruit and vegetables. Those people who
don’t care about what they eat may face serious problems. So let’s
remember about our health and make the right choice. Эссе / сочинение 2
Some people say that genetically modified (GM) food is dangerous to
their health. Others believe that it is absolutely harmless and has a
number of advantages. Nowadays people are getting more and more concerned about the food
they eat as it is closely connected with the way they look and feel.
That is why there are so many arguments about the safety of genetically
modified food.
Genetically modified crops have been developed by changing the
plant’s genetic structure in order to help the plant resist against
different diseases or produce larger crops. Personally, I try not to buy
GM food as there is no scientific conclusion so far to prove its safety
for human consumption. We don’t know what unforeseen consequences there
might be. I prefer not to risk my health because scientists are not
sure if GM food is absolutely harmless or not.
However, a lot of people are not worried about the negative influence
of GM food on their health. Besides, producers of this food say that it
has a number of advantages in terms of price, durability and
nutritional value. They also say there is no risk to human health,
although possible side effects connected with the use of GM products
have not been studied.
Can we trust producers of GM food? I don’t think so. Unfortunately,
in Russia the law does not prohibit the use of GM products. I believe
that it’s up to you to decide whether to buy GM food or not. Anyway,
producers of this food must mark their products if they contain GM
ingredients. Эссе / сочинение 3
Some people say that food is our friend, while others think that it may become an enemy. Can we live without food? The answer is definitely “no”. Food is
essential to our body which is continually wasting and requires new
energy. Experts say that food has some special powers that can control
our lives, for better or for worse.
To my mind, food is our friend if it is healthy and taken with due
regard to the exercise and waste of the body. I believe that if you eat
the right food, you can manage your mood and boost your brainpower. For
example, when I feel blue, I treat myself to a bar of chocolate or an
ice-cream and become more cheerful and energetic. When I am to take a
test, I eat a handful of nuts or a banana because such food helps me
concentrate.
However, sometimes food may become a real enemy. Unfortunately, some
people don’t pay attention to what they eat. If their diet includes fast
food and fizzy drinks, they can do much harm to their health. People
who are fond of hamburgers and Coca-Cola often suffer from diabetes,
cancer and tooth decay. Moreover, they may become overweight and even
obese.
To sum up, food that contains vitamins gives you a psychological lift
and helps you improve your health. But food that has a hefty amount of
chemical additives, fat, sugar or caffeine makes you fat and draws
energy away from your brain. I strongly feel that if you take control of
your food, you will be able to take control of your life. Эссе / сочинение 4
Nowadays more and more people become vegetarians. Others say they can’t do without meat or fish. Being a vegetarian is rather popular nowadays. Some people say they
don’t eat meat and fish because it is healthy. Others follow the example
of their favourite actor or musician. Is it worth becoming a
vegetarian?
Personally, I think that people should eat both meat and fish. Our
ancestors would not have survived if they hadn’t hunted and fished. Meat
and fish are nourishing and they contain vitamins that make us
stronger. Besides, fish is good for our brains.
However, quite a lot of people say it is cruel to eat animals. They
feel sorry for pigs, chickens or rabbits that are kept in cages.
Vegetarians are convinced that killing animals is a crime. So their food
consists of vegetables, fruit and nuts. They say that such a diet does
much good to their health and contains all the vitamins, minerals and
protein they need. But I think that if all people eat only plants, there
will not be enough food for everybody. What is more, most fruit and
vegetables are harmful because they are full of pesticides.
So it is up to you to decide whether to become vegetarian or not.
Personally, I believe that we should eat different food but at the same
time we should know where to stop.
Рекомендации при написании эссе (сочинения с элементами рассуждения)На
первый взгляд может показаться, что написать эссе (сочинение) на
английском языке – это чрезвычайно сложно. Но если знать и соблюдать
некоторые правила, то написание эссе (сочинения) будет не таким уж и
страшным делом.
Итак, при написании эссе (сочинения) учитывайте следующие моменты:
Придерживайтесь
формального стиля письма. Помните, что сокращения типа don’t, can’t,
I’m, it’s – это не формальный стиль. Также избегайте восклицательных
знаков, что тоже не соответствует нейтральности формального стиля.
Следите за лексикой и не используйте таких фраз, как: well, to tell the
truth и др. Эти фразы не соответствуют формальному стилю.
Разделите
ваше эссе (сочинение) на несколько логических частей (абзацев). В
первом абзаце представьте проблему, которую будете рассматривать в эссе.
Чтобы правильно это сделать, переформулируйте тему. Не повторяйте тему,
а переформулируйте ее!
Далее
рассмотрите проблему с двух сторон – найдите два-три аргумента,
поддерживающих одну точку зрения и столько же – в пользу другой. Не надо
писать все аргументы, которые приходят в голову. Выберите два-три самых
весомых и изложите их.
Выскажите
свое отношение к проблеме. В двух-трех предложениях объясните, почему
вы так думаете. Не повторяйте дословно уже приведенную аргументацию.
Используйте перефразирование.
В последнем абзаце сделайте вывод по проблеме.
Следите
за объемом эссе (сочинения). Принцип “чем больше, тем лучше” здесь
неприменим. Эксперт, проверяющий вашу работу жестко отсчитывает нужное
количество слов и проверяет только тот объем, который укладывается в
норму. Эссе (сочинение) менее установленного объема вообще не
проверяется и никак не оценивается.
Our health depends on our eating. Food provides us with the energy that we spend with physical exertion. Update and development of the organism at the cellular level directly depends on the products that we use. The body needs to receive a sufficient number of nutrients every day: proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals, trace elements.
Proper nutrition is a mandatory point of a healthy lifestyle and a guarantee of stable functioning of the body as a whole.
Everyday diet should be diverse and full. Freshness of products is very important. It is necessary to monitor the volume of food intake. Each person’s portion varies, depending on age, health status, gender, and equipment. Cereals, fruits and vegetables, fish, meat, eggs, dairy products, nuts, salt, sugar, fat, should be present in the diet. A balanced diet should become a way of life. You should refuse to give up snacks and fast food. Thoroughly chew food, do not swallow large chunks. It is strictly forbidden to drink food with water. You can eat everything, but in moderation. Overeating and incompatibility of products leads to a disruption of metabolism, diabetes and obesity. It is very appropriate to say Socrates: “We do not live in order to eat, but eat in order to live.”
Перевод
От того как мы питаемся зависит наше здоровье. Пища обеспечивает нас энергией которую мы тратим при физических нагрузках. Обновление и развитие организма на клеточном уровне напрямую зависит от продуктов которые мы употребляем. Организму необходимо каждый день получать достаточное количество питательных веществ: белки, углеводы, жиры, витамины, минералы, микроэлементы.
Правильное питание – это обязательный пункт здорового образа жизни и залог стабильного функционирования организма в целом.
Каждодневный рацион должен отличаться разнообразием и быть полноценным. Важна свежесть продуктов. Следует следить за объёмом порций принимаемой пищи. У каждого человека порция разная, зависит от возраста, состояния здоровья, пола, комплектации. В рационе должны присутствовать зерновые культуры, фрукты и овощи, рыба, мясо, яйца, молочные изделия, орехи, солью сахар, жир. Сбалансированное питание должно стать образом жизни. Следует отказаться отказаться от перекусов и фаст-фуда. Тщательно пережевывать пищу, не глотать большими кусками. Категорически запрещено запивать еду водой. Кушать можно все, но в умеренном количестве. Переедание и несовместимость продуктов приводит к нарушению обмена веществ, сахарному диабета и ожирению. Здесь очень уместно высказывание Сократа: “Мы живем не для того, чтобы есть, а едим для того, чтобы жить”.
The connection between what we eat and our health is known for everyone since ancient times, and most of people today realize that their food one way or another influences the body. Good nutrition and pleasure that we get from food play big role in health maintaining. However, most of us used to eat such eat that more likely can harm our health than to contribute to its strengthening. What do you eat? What do you think, do you eat healthy food? This healthy food essay will help you to find answers to these and other questions. Also we are going to discuss genetic engineering and its achievements in the field of food production, so partially this is genetically modified food essay as well. So read and enjoy.

Correct nutrition plays basic role in stress overcoming, diseases prevention and strengthening of health and well-being feeling.
Some people should pay special attention to what they eat, because their need in minerals and vitamins can be higher than of other people.
The style of eating in many West countries can not be called healthy. In general there is a tendency to excessive eating of certain kinds of food that contain much fat, sugar and salt. This fact causes many problems. In United Kingdom, for example, 36% of population suffer from obesity. Healthy food instead of a diet
There are many diets that lead to successful weight loss, if you follow strictly all the rules. However, diets that cause weight loss can not be considered equal to healthy eating. Diet is a strict limitation, due to which you have to change your style of eating or eating habits.
Instead of wasting time choosing one of such diets, think about your health and style of life. First of all let’s figure out what foods and products are useful for our health. Eat healthy food
The close product is to its natural condition, the more use t will bring you. Fresh fruits and berries are very useful, besides they can satisfy you need in something sweet. Vegetables are the best suppliers of vitamins and minerals that increase the body ability to assimilate useful substances. Steam processing of vegetables will keep their nourishing value better.
pasta and bakery products should be made of whole grain. Avoid pastry and cookies. Do you like something baked? Eat apple pie, it will be really useful for you.
Buy lean meal and do not forget about fish. Omega-3 fatty acids are very useful for our health, they reduce the cholesterol level. They are contained in ocean kinds of fish, so eat seafood twice or three times per week, it will help you to protect from stress situations and will easy the depressive state. Remember that fried fish and chicken are healthier food than fried beef.
Eat as much various foods as possible to get all the vitamins and minerals. Drink water, milk and 100% natural juices as the main drinks. Reduce the consumption of sweet non-alcohol drinks. If water seems tasteless to you, add a slice of lemon or lime to make it more aromatic. Water helps in losing weight if you drink it correctly. Complete hydration is very important for the weight loss, because water is needed to take out the body the products of metabolism. Unhealthy food
Fried in much fat foods
Sweet drinks
Lollipops
Salty snacks
Sausages
Fat snacks
White bread and pasta
Most canned food
Grain breakfasts with sugar
Frozen fried chicken
Fish fingers and crab sticks. Healthy food
Green and brightly coloured vegetables
Greenery and salads
Seaweed
Spinach
Fresh fruits and berries
Turkey and chicken meat
Eggs
Nuts and dried fruits
Wheat bread and pasta made of whole grain
Sunflower oil, olive oil
Ocean fish, seafood
Skimmed milk or soy milk drinks
Nuts, sunflower seeds and beans. Healthy food for snack lovers
If you are an “emotional eater”, i.e. you eat when you are bored, happy or upset, do not keep chips, ice-cream and sweets in your house. Buy healthy snacks, such as dried fruits, grain, nuts or vegetable bars, which are rich with vitamins and mineral supplements, fresh fruits. When you just need some “treatment” from emotions in form of unhealthy food, buy small chocolate bar of high quality and eat it, but do not buy sweets to store them.
The same tips are useful for those who prefer to eat in front of the TV-set. If you do not want to miss the meal and to watch what is going on in your favourite TV show, then eat low calorie foods. In a state of deep interest you can eat too much. Remember that carrot, tomatoes, cucumbers are great alternative to chips and other similar snacks. Do not miss meals
If you miss breakfast, you will definitely want to eat something in an hour or two. That is why instead of refusing from breakfast, divide it into several parts, for example: an egg, porridge and fruits. Eat in small portions. When you feel hunger, you can east some almonds or raisins. Such divided breakfast is much more acceptable decision, than coffee-breaks with sweets and biscuits. Portion control
Our stomachs are not that big. In average, not stretched stomach may contain about two cups of food, and it is better not stretch it, because you will need more food to fill it, and it will bring more excessive calories.
When you eat at home, serve meals on separate plates. In such a way you will reduce your chances to eat too large portion. In restaurant you may ask food container and take half of your portion with you. Avoid buffets if you are not very disciplined. Buffet is too much tempting event, where you can easily eat 3 or 4 portions plus dessert. Taming of a sweet-tooth
Try to tame you passion for sweets and avoid sweet snacks. There can be many calories and harmful fats. Instead of sweets eat berries and fruits. If they are not sweet enough for you, add some sugar. Avoid sweet aerated drinks, you would better try cold herbal teas with a slice of lemon or lime, the taste is amazing. Foods you can not resist
Definitely there are foods you can not resist, in such a case, enjoy your favourite products in small amounts. Any dish that does not belong to “healthy food” you can eat once a month, and the best thing you can do is to find an equivalent to this unhealthy dish among foods that are healthy. Things do not happen at once
If you can not start leading healthy lifestyle at once, do not despair. Most of people can not. Implement your ideas gradually, step by step. Even a small change in your style of eating in favor of healthy food will be a new step in the right direction. The way in a thousand miles begins with the first step. Genetically modified food
Also we would like to tell you some words about genetically modified food.
Genetically modified food is the products got from genetically modified organisms (GMO), such as plants, animals or microorganisms. Products got with the help of genetically modified organisms or in composition of which there is at least one component got from the products that contain GMO, may also be considered genetically modified food. For and against
Before denying or supporting any new innovation, let’s consider that every medal has two sides. So we need to study all the positive and negative sides of the innovation.
Genetically modified organism are able not only grow, but survive in the places where ordinary plants die because of different weather conditions. Many of them are not afraid of frosts, floods or droughts. Some plants have such a strong root system that allows them to keep maximum of moisture. Also there were created fast growing sort of cereals.
Genetic modifies are made to give to a plant useful qualities:
Insect and cold resistance, crop capacity and so on;
The population on the Earth grows annually and genetically modified food should save the humanity from hunger;
Genetically modified food can protect itself from pests and weed;
Having great crop capacity such food is cheaper;
Pest resistance allows to use less pesticides;
There are such vegetables and fruits that can resist viruses, bacteria and fungus;
Scientists work on creation of new sorts of tomatoes and potato that for the Third World countries where they will be cultivated and stored without any special methods;
Some kinds of trees are created specially for fighting the pollution.
And the other side of the medal… Why are many people against GM products?
Most countries do not have special laws that regulate production and consumption of GM products.
Consumers do not know what they buy and do not know how it reflects on their health. Some genetically modified foods influence negatively the immune system, kidneys, liver and brain.
There is no information on the goods about the substances they contain and their amount.
Ecologists are afraid of potential ecological catastrophe, if genetically modified forms start growing in wild nature.
Except ecological risk, there is also food risk. Some products can cause allergy reaction. An ordinary product, for example tomato, which contains not visible for human eye fish gene, may cause allergy reaction at a person who has allergy on fish. GM products on our markets
Most of registered genetically modified products belong to soy. Soybean is one of the components of such products as butter, baking fats, mayonnaise and other salad sauces, sausages, cornflakes, pasta products and even baby food if milk is replaced by soy milk.
Also there are many GM modified products that contain corn, for example popcorn. Beautiful shiny big, without any disadvantage tomatoes, pepper, strawberry and other imported vegetables and fruits are likely genetically modified. In the process of ripening vegetables and fruits emit ethylene that makes them wither more quickly. Genetically modified products have such a gene that is resistant to ethylene and keeps vegetables and fruits fresh for a long time.
Almost all genetically modified products on our markets are imported. Unfortunately often there is no sign which are natural and which are not. Meanwhile on the West markets all the genetically modified goods have special marks, and consumers know what they buy.
Now you know more about healthy eating, healthy food and genetically modified products. I hope this essay on food helped you to figure out what food is healthy and what is not, and what food habit you should develop or vise versa quit.
Fast food
Фаст фуд
Modern people are very busy. They spend much time at work, at school or at university. Often they do not have free time to cook something. Ones of them eat at the restaurants or in the canteen. Another people prefer to eat fast food, just because they need not cook it.
Современные люди очень заняты. Они проводят много времени на работе, в школе или в университете. Часто у них нет свободного времени, чтобы приготовить что-нибудь. Одни из них кушают в ресторанах или в столовых. Другие люди предпочитают употреблять фаст-фуд, просто потому что им не нужно готовить его.
Fast food is the food that is ready to be eaten. We all know that fast food is not healthy. It has a negative effect on our bodies. First of all, fast food contains a lot of lipids and carbs. If you eat a lot of fast food, you can gain weight. Also problems with digestive system may be caused by eating it. Fast food can also be the cause of problems with skin health.
Фаст-фуд – это еда, которая готова к употреблению. Мы все знаем, что фаст-фуд вреден. Его употребление отрицательно влияет на наши организмы. Прежде всего, фаст-фуд содержит много жиров и углеводов. Если вы употребляете в пищу много фаст-фуда, вы можете набрать вес. Также проблемы с пищеварительной системой могут быть вызваны его употреблением. Фаст-фуд также может быть причиной проблем со здоровьем кожи.
What are the examples of fast food? They are sandwiches, pizza, hamburgers, potato crisps and so on. Nowadays it is popular to keep a healthy lifestyle. So people try to make even fast food healthier. For example, many people like cooking and eating vegetable pizza.
Что можно назвать в качестве примеров фаст-фуда? Это сэндвичи, пицца, гамбургеры, картофельные чипсы и т. д. В наше время популярно вести здоровый образ жизни. Поэтому люди стараются сделать даже фаст-фуд более здоровым. Например, многие люди любят готовить и кушать овощную пиццу.
I do not like fast food. Some people cannot refuse fast food. I do not understand it. Of course, this kind of food is quite delicious but it makes no differ. Healthy food may also be delicious. I do not want to say that fast food is something you should refuse completely. Sometimes my friends arrange parties and fast food is very good for it. But it should not be eaten every day.
Я не люблю фаст-фуд. Некоторые люди не могут отказаться от фаст-фуда. Я не понимаю этого. Конечно, этот вид еды довольно вкусный, но это ничего не меняет. Здоровая пища также может быть очень вкусной. Я не хочу сказать, что фаст-фуд – это то, от чего вы должны отказаться полностью. Иногда мои друзья устраивают вечеринки, и фаст-фуд очень хорошо подходит для этого. Но его нельзя употреблять в пищу каждый день.

Why do people prefer fast food? Firstly, it is a good chance to have a snack when you do not have enough time. This food is cooked very fast and you don`t need to wait for a long time being hungry. Secondly, fast food is not expensive and you can buy it almost everywhere. If you want to eat you don`t have to pay a lot of money for it. Thirdly, fast food is tasty and nourishing.

Перевод:
Ты, то что ты ешь! Можем мы ли мы питаться правильно? Мы можем встретить кафе и рестораны на каждом углу. Поэтому, фаст фуд так популярна среди взрослых людей, но в большинстве случаев, среди детей. Но как эта еда влияет на здоровье?
Почему люди предпочитают фаст фуд? Во-первых, это хорошая возможность перекусить, когда у тебя нет достаточно времени. Эта еда готовится очень быстро и вам не нужно ждать долго и быть голодными. Во-вторых, фаст фуд не дорогая еда и вы можете купить ее везде. Если ты хочешь кушать, тебе не надо платить много денег. В-третьих, фаст фуд вкусна и питательна.
Но некоторые люди не едят фаст фуд. Они думают, что это нездоровая пища и вредна для здоровья. Эта еда состоит из холестерина, из-за этого люди, которые часто едят ее, страдают ожирением и склонны к сердечным болезням, болезням желудка и некоторым другим проблемам.
Мы должны понять, что еда – это важная часть нашей жизни. Нам следует выбирать здоровую пищу, которая не вредна для нас. Я против фаст фуда, но иногда я могу позволить себе перекусить, когда я ужасно голодна и не располагаю средствами, чтобы покушать правильно. Пища должна быть полезной, а фаст фуд разрушает наше здоровье, а мы знаем что “здоровье это величайшее богатство”.

Fast FoodФаст фудModern life runs so quickly that people often don’t have enough time to eat. And most certainly they get little time for cooking. Lots of people think that fast food is the best solution in this situation. That’s why fast-food chains have become so popular. They provide simple menus, which usually contain French fries, hamburgers, sandwiches, salads, milk cocktails, brownies and else. Perhaps the most famous fast-food chain is McDonalds. This place is rather popular among children and grown-ups. People like having food which is cooked beforehand and served quickly. However, doctors all over the world find fast food rather unhealthy. They say that fast food contains many calories, lots of fat and just a few vitamins. They also say that eating fast food every day leads to overweight and stomach problems. Luckily, people today are more health-conscious than before and they realize that eating lots of fast food can be dangerous. The question about fast food always brings up many opinions. Some people state that it’s not bad at all. Usually those people have lots of work to do during weekdays and fast food is a good idea for lunch. Children are also among those who like fast-food chains. They especially like getting toys with their meal. McDonalds was the first restaurant to use this strategy. Others avoid eating fast food because it can lead to the following health problems: high blood pressure, heart diseases and obesity. In conclusion, I’d like to say that everyone has a choice. I choose fresh fruit and vegetables. That’s why when I’m at a fast-food restaurant I order a salad and an orange juice.Современная жизнь протекает так быстро, что людям часто не хватает времени, чтобы поесть. И, безусловно, у них мало времени для приготовления пищи. Многие люди думают, что фаст фуд является лучшим решением в такой ситуации. Вот почему сети быстрого питания стали столь популярны. Они предоставляют простое меню, которое обычно содержит картофель фри, гамбургеры, бутерброды, салаты, молочные коктейли, пирожные и т.д. Пожалуй, самой известной сетью ресторанов быстрого питания является Макдоналдс. Это место довольно популярно как среди детей, так и среди взрослых. Людям нравится еда, которая готовится заранее и подается быстро. Тем не менее, врачи во всем мире считают фаст фуд нездоровой пищей. Они говорят, что фаст фуд содержит много калорий, много жира и очень мало витаминов. Они также говорят, что ежедневное употребление фаст фуда приводит к избыточному весу и проблемам с желудком. К счастью, люди сегодня больше заботятся о своем здоровье, чем раньше, и они понимают, что употребление фаст фуда в больших количествах может быть опасным. На вопрос о фаст фуде всегда возникает множество мнений. Некоторые люди заявляют, что это вообще неплохо. Обычно у этих людей много работы в будние дни и фаст фуд является хорошей идеей для обеда. Дети также относятся к тем, кто любит фаст-фуд сети. Им особенно нравится получать игрушки вместе с едой. Макдоналдс был первым рестораном, который использовал эту стратегию. Другие избегают фаст фуд, потому что это может привести к следующим проблемам со здоровьем: высокому кровяному давлению, заболеваниям сердца и ожирению. В заключение я хотела бы сказать, что у каждого есть выбор. Я выбираю свежие фрукты и овощи. Вот почему, когда я бываю в ресторане быстрого питания, я заказываю салат и апельсиновый сок.
What does the word “food” mean to you? Is it a pleasure or just a fuel? This question has been disputable for a long time and everybody has his personal opinion about it. The majority of people would agree that we eat in order to have enough energy to complete our routine tasks. Nevertheless, nobody would agree to eat the same set of products from day to day. Moreover, food is certainly more than just a number of proteins, fats and carbohydrates. It’s the way to get some satisfaction after a long working day for the vast majority of people.
As for me, I can’t say that food is just a fuel but it’s surely not a religion in my house. I suppose I have traditional meals such as breakfast, lunch and dinner, but I can have several snacks between my meals as well if I get hungry. I’m trying to keep a healthy diet, so my breakfast usually includes cereals with yogurt or oatmeal with eggs. Also, I can add some fruit to my breakfast, but I always drink a cup of coffee in the morning. It helps me to wake up and be ready for the day. I usually have lunch in the canteen at school, so it depends on what they offer there.
Dinner is a family meal. We usually get together in the evening when my parents come back from work. My mother is an excellent cook and I really like all the dishes she makes. We usually eat some fish or meat with vegetables or porridge for dinner. I can’t cook that well, but I have a number of specialties that I usually make for holidays. They are some salads and cakes.
At weekends my friends and I go to the cafe or pizzeria to eat out. It’s a good way to enjoy delicious food and communicate with the people I care about at the same time. We prefer to order some salads and pizza, drink different kinds of non-alcoholic cocktails.
Thus, I’m sure that food can bring us some kind of pleasure, but I don’t consider it the sense of our life. So we should eat to live but not live to eat.
Сочинение на тему О еде
Что для вас значит слово «еда»? Это удовольствие или просто топливо? Этот вопрос обсуждается уже давно, и у каждого есть свое личное мнение по этому поводу.
Большинство людей согласится, что мы едим для того, чтобы получать достаточно энергии для выполнения наших ежедневных задач. Тем не менее, никто не согласится употреблять одну и ту же пищу изо дня в день. Более того, еда — это, конечно, более чем просто набор белков, жиров и углеводов. Это способ получить удовольствие после длинного рабочего дня для преимущественного большинства людей.
Что касается меня, то я не могу сказать, что еда — это только топливо, но я и не делаю культа из нее. Я думаю, у меня достаточно традиционные приемы пищи, такие как завтрак, обед и ужин, но я могу пару раз перекусить между приемами пищи, если проголодаюсь. Я стараюсь придерживаться здорового питания, поэтому мой завтрак обычно включает хлопья с йогуртом или овсянку с яйцами. Также я могу добавить фрукты к моему завтраку, и я всегда пью чашку кофе утром. Это помогает мне проснуться и подготовиться ко дню. Обедаю я обычно в столовой в школе, поэтому мой обед зависит от того, что они предлагают там.
Ужин — это прием пищи в кругу семьи. Мы обычно собираемся вместе вечером, когда мои родители возвращаются с работы. Моя мама — отличный повар, мне нравятся все блюда, которые она готовит. Мы обычно кушаем рыбу или мясо с овощами или кашей на ужин. Я не умею готовить так хорошо, но у меня есть несколько особых блюд, которые я готовлю на праздники. Это салаты и торты.
По выходным я хожу с друзьями в кафе или пиццерию, чтобы поесть вне дома. Таким образом, я одновременно наслаждаюсь вкусной едой и общением с близкими людьми. Мы предпочитаем заказывать салаты и пиццу, а также разные безалкогольные коктейли.
Итак, я уверенна, что еда может доставить нам своего рода удовольствие, но я не считаю ее смыслом жизни. Нам следует есть, чтобы жить, а не жить, чтобы есть. Похожие сочинения

Healthy food
Здоровая пища
Nowadays it is very popular to keep a healthy lifestyle. I think that it is the very good fashion to be healthy. Many people all over the world spend many hours in the gym. However a healthy lifestyle includes not only some physical exercises or keeping regular hours but also healthy food.
В наше время очень популярно вести здоровый образ жизни. Я думаю, что мода на здоровый образ жизни – это очень хорошо. Многие люди во всем мире проводят много часов в спортзале. Однако здоровый образ жизни включает в себя не только физические упражнения или соблюдение режима дня, но и здоровую пищу.
It is very difficult for modern people to eat only healthy food because they are very busy and it is easier to have a bite or eat fast food. Moreover, some people think that healthy food is expensive. Of course, these statements are partially true. However, they are also the parts of the stereotypes.
Современным людям очень трудно употреблять только здоровую пищу, потому что они очень заняты, и намного легче просто перекусить или употребить в пищу фаст-фуд. Более того, некоторые люди считают, что здоровая пища – это дорого. Конечно, эти утверждения отчасти верны. Тем не менее, они также являются частью стереотипов.
Healthy food is also can be cooked fast. For example, it takes about fifteen minutes to cook buckwheat with fresh vegetables. You spend so little time to cook it but your organism gets so many vitamins. You also can cook a healthy sandwich using vegetables and whole-wheat bread.
Здоровую пищу также можно быстро приготовить. Например, на приготовление гречки со свежими овощами уходит около пятнадцати минут. Тратится так мало времени на приготовление, но организм получает так много витаминов. Также можно приготовить здоровый бутерброд, используя для его приготовления овощи и цельнозерновой хлеб.
I can agree that cooking healthy food may require much money, for example, in respect to seafood or nuts. However, people spend more money buying potato crisps or other kinds of fast food. Some time ago my family began to eat only healthy food, so I can say that our expenses have not increased.
Я могу согласиться, что приготовление здоровой пищи может потребовать много денег, например, если речь идет о морепродуктах или орехах. Однако люди тратят больше денег на покупку картофельных чипсов или других видов фаст-фуда. Некоторое время назад моя семья начала употреблять только здоровую пищу, и я могу сказать, что наши расходы не увеличились.
Healthy food is not only fruits and vegetables. Seafood, dairy products, nuts and even meat are also can be healthy food if it is cooked in a right way. Healthy food can be not only healthy but also delicious.
Здоровое питание — это не только фрукты и овощи. Морепродукты, молочные продукты, орехи и даже мясо также могут относиться к здоровой пище, если их правильно приготовить. Здоровая пища может быть не только полезной, но и вкусной.
Эссе / сочинение 1
Fast food is very popular and saves time for busy working people. However, many experts say that it is not completely healthy. Do you know a person who has never been to McDonald’s? McDonald’s is
the leading global foodservice retailer serving millions of people in
more than 100 countries each day. McDonald’s restaurants sell what is
called “fast” or “junk” food — hamburgers, chips and so on. Such food is
very popular, especially with children and teenagers.
Personally, I adore hamburgers, cheeseburgers, apple pies, muffins
and fruit cocktails. This food is tasty, cheap and ubiquitous. What is
more, going to McDonald’s saves much time and effort. I don’t have to go
to a supermarket, prepare meals and wash the dishes when I eat out.
Besides, I like the holiday atmosphere of McDonald’s. There I can relax,
enjoy the food and celebrate some event with my friends and relatives.
But experts say that fast food makes people overweight and even obese
and elevates the risk of diabetes and cancer. If your food includes
hamburgers, chips, hot dogs, pizzas and fizzy drinks like Coke, Pepsi,
Sprite and others, you are facing a serious problem threatening your
health. Such food is full of chemical additives. For example, a can of
Coke contains about eight teaspoons of sugar and artificial sweeteners.
Moreover, there is a risk of food poisoning.
To sum it up, we should think more about our health. We should try to
avoid fast food and eat more fruit and vegetables. Those people who
don’t care about what they eat may face serious problems. So let’s
remember about our health and make the right choice.
Эссе / сочинение 2
Some people say that genetically modified (GM) food is dangerous to
their health. Others believe that it is absolutely harmless and has a
number of advantages. Nowadays people are getting more and more concerned about the food
they eat as it is closely connected with the way they look and feel.
That is why there are so many arguments about the safety of genetically
modified food.
Genetically modified crops have been developed by changing the
plant’s genetic structure in order to help the plant resist against
different diseases or produce larger crops. Personally, I try not to buy
GM food as there is no scientific conclusion so far to prove its safety
for human consumption. We don’t know what unforeseen consequences there
might be. I prefer not to risk my health because scientists are not
sure if GM food is absolutely harmless or not.
However, a lot of people are not worried about the negative influence
of GM food on their health. Besides, producers of this food say that it
has a number of advantages in terms of price, durability and
nutritional value. They also say there is no risk to human health,
although possible side effects connected with the use of GM products
have not been studied.
Can we trust producers of GM food? I don’t think so. Unfortunately,
in Russia the law does not prohibit the use of GM products. I believe
that it’s up to you to decide whether to buy GM food or not. Anyway,
producers of this food must mark their products if they contain GM
ingredients.

Some people say that food is our friend, while others think that it may become an enemy. Can we live without food? The answer is definitely “no”. Food is
essential to our body which is continually wasting and requires new
energy. Experts say that food has some special powers that can control
our lives, for better or for worse.
To my mind, food is our friend if it is healthy and taken with due
regard to the exercise and waste of the body. I believe that if you eat
the right food, you can manage your mood and boost your brainpower. For
example, when I feel blue, I treat myself to a bar of chocolate or an
ice-cream and become more cheerful and energetic. When I am to take a
test, I eat a handful of nuts or a banana because such food helps me
concentrate.
However, sometimes food may become a real enemy. Unfortunately, some
people don’t pay attention to what they eat. If their diet includes fast
food and fizzy drinks, they can do much harm to their health. People
who are fond of hamburgers and Coca-Cola often suffer from diabetes,
cancer and tooth decay. Moreover, they may become overweight and even
obese.
To sum up, food that contains vitamins gives you a psychological lift
and helps you improve your health. But food that has a hefty amount of
chemical additives, fat, sugar or caffeine makes you fat and draws
energy away from your brain. I strongly feel that if you take control of
your food, you will be able to take control of your life.

Nowadays more and more people become vegetarians. Others say they can’t do without meat or fish. Being a vegetarian is rather popular nowadays. Some people say they
don’t eat meat and fish because it is healthy. Others follow the example
of their favourite actor or musician. Is it worth becoming a
vegetarian?
Personally, I think that people should eat both meat and fish. Our
ancestors would not have survived if they hadn’t hunted and fished. Meat
and fish are nourishing and they contain vitamins that make us
stronger. Besides, fish is good for our brains.
However, quite a lot of people say it is cruel to eat animals. They
feel sorry for pigs, chickens or rabbits that are kept in cages.
Vegetarians are convinced that killing animals is a crime. So their food
consists of vegetables, fruit and nuts. They say that such a diet does
much good to their health and contains all the vitamins, minerals and
protein they need. But I think that if all people eat only plants, there
will not be enough food for everybody. What is more, most fruit and
vegetables are harmful because they are full of pesticides.
So it is up to you to decide whether to become vegetarian or not.
Personally, I believe that we should eat different food but at the same
time we should know where to stop.
Рекомендации при написании эссе (сочинения с элементами рассуждения)На
первый взгляд может показаться, что написать эссе (сочинение) на
английском языке – это чрезвычайно сложно. Но если знать и соблюдать
некоторые правила, то написание эссе (сочинения) будет не таким уж и
страшным делом.
Итак, при написании эссе (сочинения) учитывайте следующие моменты:
Придерживайтесь
формального стиля письма. Помните, что сокращения типа don’t, can’t,
I’m, it’s – это не формальный стиль. Также избегайте восклицательных
знаков, что тоже не соответствует нейтральности формального стиля.
Следите за лексикой и не используйте таких фраз, как: well, to tell the
truth и др. Эти фразы не соответствуют формальному стилю.
Разделите
ваше эссе (сочинение) на несколько логических частей (абзацев). В
первом абзаце представьте проблему, которую будете рассматривать в эссе.
Чтобы правильно это сделать, переформулируйте тему. Не повторяйте тему,
а переформулируйте ее!
Далее
рассмотрите проблему с двух сторон – найдите два-три аргумента,
поддерживающих одну точку зрения и столько же – в пользу другой. Не надо
писать все аргументы, которые приходят в голову. Выберите два-три самых
весомых и изложите их.
Выскажите
свое отношение к проблеме. В двух-трех предложениях объясните, почему
вы так думаете. Не повторяйте дословно уже приведенную аргументацию.
Используйте перефразирование.
В последнем абзаце сделайте вывод по проблеме.
Следите
за объемом эссе (сочинения). Принцип “чем больше, тем лучше” здесь
неприменим. Эксперт, проверяющий вашу работу жестко отсчитывает нужное
количество слов и проверяет только тот объем, который укладывается в
норму. Эссе (сочинение) менее установленного объема вообще не
проверяется и никак не оценивается.
Our health depends on our eating. Food provides us with the energy that we spend with physical exertion. Update and development of the organism at the cellular level directly depends on the products that we use. The body needs to receive a sufficient number of nutrients every day: proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals, trace elements.
Proper nutrition is a mandatory point of a healthy lifestyle and a guarantee of stable functioning of the body as a whole.
Everyday diet should be diverse and full. Freshness of products is very important. It is necessary to monitor the volume of food intake. Each person’s portion varies, depending on age, health status, gender, and equipment. Cereals, fruits and vegetables, fish, meat, eggs, dairy products, nuts, salt, sugar, fat, should be present in the diet. A balanced diet should become a way of life. You should refuse to give up snacks and fast food. Thoroughly chew food, do not swallow large chunks. It is strictly forbidden to drink food with water. You can eat everything, but in moderation. Overeating and incompatibility of products leads to a disruption of metabolism, diabetes and obesity. It is very appropriate to say Socrates: “We do not live in order to eat, but eat in order to live.”
Перевод
От того как мы питаемся зависит наше здоровье. Пища обеспечивает нас энергией которую мы тратим при физических нагрузках. Обновление и развитие организма на клеточном уровне напрямую зависит от продуктов которые мы употребляем. Организму необходимо каждый день получать достаточное количество питательных веществ: белки, углеводы, жиры, витамины, минералы, микроэлементы.
Правильное питание – это обязательный пункт здорового образа жизни и залог стабильного функционирования организма в целом.
Каждодневный рацион должен отличаться разнообразием и быть полноценным. Важна свежесть продуктов. Следует следить за объёмом порций принимаемой пищи. У каждого человека порция разная, зависит от возраста, состояния здоровья, пола, комплектации. В рационе должны присутствовать зерновые культуры, фрукты и овощи, рыба, мясо, яйца, молочные изделия, орехи, солью сахар, жир. Сбалансированное питание должно стать образом жизни. Следует отказаться отказаться от перекусов и фаст-фуда. Тщательно пережевывать пищу, не глотать большими кусками. Категорически запрещено запивать еду водой. Кушать можно все, но в умеренном количестве. Переедание и несовместимость продуктов приводит к нарушению обмена веществ, сахарному диабета и ожирению. Здесь очень уместно высказывание Сократа: “Мы живем не для того, чтобы есть, а едим для того, чтобы жить”.
The connection between what we eat and our health is known for everyone since ancient times, and most of people today realize that their food one way or another influences the body. Good nutrition and pleasure that we get from food play big role in health maintaining. However, most of us used to eat such eat that more likely can harm our health than to contribute to its strengthening. What do you eat? What do you think, do you eat healthy food? This healthy food essay will help you to find answers to these and other questions. Also we are going to discuss genetic engineering and its achievements in the field of food production, so partially this is genetically modified food essay as well. So read and enjoy.

Correct nutrition plays basic role in stress overcoming, diseases prevention and strengthening of health and well-being feeling.
Some people should pay special attention to what they eat, because their need in minerals and vitamins can be higher than of other people.
The style of eating in many West countries can not be called healthy. In general there is a tendency to excessive eating of certain kinds of food that contain much fat, sugar and salt. This fact causes many problems. In United Kingdom, for example, 36% of population suffer from obesity.
Healthy food instead of a diet
There are many diets that lead to successful weight loss, if you follow strictly all the rules. However, diets that cause weight loss can not be considered equal to healthy eating. Diet is a strict limitation, due to which you have to change your style of eating or eating habits.
Instead of wasting time choosing one of such diets, think about your health and style of life. First of all let’s figure out what foods and products are useful for our health.
Eat healthy food
The close product is to its natural condition, the more use t will bring you. Fresh fruits and berries are very useful, besides they can satisfy you need in something sweet. Vegetables are the best suppliers of vitamins and minerals that increase the body ability to assimilate useful substances. Steam processing of vegetables will keep their nourishing value better.
pasta and bakery products should be made of whole grain. Avoid pastry and cookies. Do you like something baked? Eat apple pie, it will be really useful for you.
Buy lean meal and do not forget about fish. Omega-3 fatty acids are very useful for our health, they reduce the cholesterol level. They are contained in ocean kinds of fish, so eat seafood twice or three times per week, it will help you to protect from stress situations and will easy the depressive state. Remember that fried fish and chicken are healthier food than fried beef.
Eat as much various foods as possible to get all the vitamins and minerals. Drink water, milk and 100% natural juices as the main drinks. Reduce the consumption of sweet non-alcohol drinks. If water seems tasteless to you, add a slice of lemon or lime to make it more aromatic. Water helps in losing weight if you drink it correctly. Complete hydration is very important for the weight loss, because water is needed to take out the body the products of metabolism.

Healthy food for snack lovers
If you are an “emotional eater”, i.e. you eat when you are bored, happy or upset, do not keep chips, ice-cream and sweets in your house. Buy healthy snacks, such as dried fruits, grain, nuts or vegetable bars, which are rich with vitamins and mineral supplements, fresh fruits. When you just need some “treatment” from emotions in form of unhealthy food, buy small chocolate bar of high quality and eat it, but do not buy sweets to store them.
The same tips are useful for those who prefer to eat in front of the TV-set. If you do not want to miss the meal and to watch what is going on in your favourite TV show, then eat low calorie foods. In a state of deep interest you can eat too much. Remember that carrot, tomatoes, cucumbers are great alternative to chips and other similar snacks.
Do not miss meals
If you miss breakfast, you will definitely want to eat something in an hour or two. That is why instead of refusing from breakfast, divide it into several parts, for example: an egg, porridge and fruits. Eat in small portions. When you feel hunger, you can east some almonds or raisins. Such divided breakfast is much more acceptable decision, than coffee-breaks with sweets and biscuits.
Portion control
Our stomachs are not that big. In average, not stretched stomach may contain about two cups of food, and it is better not stretch it, because you will need more food to fill it, and it will bring more excessive calories.
When you eat at home, serve meals on separate plates. In such a way you will reduce your chances to eat too large portion. In restaurant you may ask food container and take half of your portion with you. Avoid buffets if you are not very disciplined. Buffet is too much tempting event, where you can easily eat 3 or 4 portions plus dessert.
Taming of a sweet-tooth
Try to tame you passion for sweets and avoid sweet snacks. There can be many calories and harmful fats. Instead of sweets eat berries and fruits. If they are not sweet enough for you, add some sugar. Avoid sweet aerated drinks, you would better try cold herbal teas with a slice of lemon or lime, the taste is amazing.
Foods you can not resist
Definitely there are foods you can not resist, in such a case, enjoy your favourite products in small amounts. Any dish that does not belong to “healthy food” you can eat once a month, and the best thing you can do is to find an equivalent to this unhealthy dish among foods that are healthy.
Things do not happen at once
If you can not start leading healthy lifestyle at once, do not despair. Most of people can not. Implement your ideas gradually, step by step. Even a small change in your style of eating in favor of healthy food will be a new step in the right direction. The way in a thousand miles begins with the first step.
Genetically modified food
Also we would like to tell you some words about genetically modified food.
Genetically modified food is the products got from genetically modified organisms (GMO), such as plants, animals or microorganisms. Products got with the help of genetically modified organisms or in composition of which there is at least one component got from the products that contain GMO, may also be considered genetically modified food.
For and against
Before denying or supporting any new innovation, let’s consider that every medal has two sides. So we need to study all the positive and negative sides of the innovation.
Genetically modified organism are able not only grow, but survive in the places where ordinary plants die because of different weather conditions. Many of them are not afraid of frosts, floods or droughts. Some plants have such a strong root system that allows them to keep maximum of moisture. Also there were created fast growing sort of cereals.
Genetic modifies are made to give to a plant useful qualities:
Insect and cold resistance, crop capacity and so on;
The population on the Earth grows annually and genetically modified food should save the humanity from hunger;
Genetically modified food can protect itself from pests and weed;
Having great crop capacity such food is cheaper;
Pest resistance allows to use less pesticides;
There are such vegetables and fruits that can resist viruses, bacteria and fungus;
Scientists work on creation of new sorts of tomatoes and potato that for the Third World countries where they will be cultivated and stored without any special methods;
Some kinds of trees are created specially for fighting the pollution.
And the other side of the medal… Why are many people against GM products?
Most countries do not have special laws that regulate production and consumption of GM products.
Consumers do not know what they buy and do not know how it reflects on their health. Some genetically modified foods influence negatively the immune system, kidneys, liver and brain.
There is no information on the goods about the substances they contain and their amount.
Ecologists are afraid of potential ecological catastrophe, if genetically modified forms start growing in wild nature.
Except ecological risk, there is also food risk. Some products can cause allergy reaction. An ordinary product, for example tomato, which contains not visible for human eye fish gene, may cause allergy reaction at a person who has allergy on fish.
GM products on our markets
Most of registered genetically modified products belong to soy. Soybean is one of the components of such products as butter, baking fats, mayonnaise and other salad sauces, sausages, cornflakes, pasta products and even baby food if milk is replaced by soy milk.
Also there are many GM modified products that contain corn, for example popcorn. Beautiful shiny big, without any disadvantage tomatoes, pepper, strawberry and other imported vegetables and fruits are likely genetically modified. In the process of ripening vegetables and fruits emit ethylene that makes them wither more quickly. Genetically modified products have such a gene that is resistant to ethylene and keeps vegetables and fruits fresh for a long time.
Almost all genetically modified products on our markets are imported. Unfortunately often there is no sign which are natural and which are not. Meanwhile on the West markets all the genetically modified goods have special marks, and consumers know what they buy.
Now you know more about healthy eating, healthy food and genetically modified products. I hope this essay on food helped you to figure out what food is healthy and what is not, and what food habit you should develop or vise versa quit.
Fast food
Фаст фуд
Modern people are very busy. They spend much time at work, at school or at university. Often they do not have free time to cook something. Ones of them eat at the restaurants or in the canteen. Another people prefer to eat fast food, just because they need not cook it.
Современные люди очень заняты. Они проводят много времени на работе, в школе или в университете. Часто у них нет свободного времени, чтобы приготовить что-нибудь. Одни из них кушают в ресторанах или в столовых. Другие люди предпочитают употреблять фаст-фуд, просто потому что им не нужно готовить его.
Fast food is the food that is ready to be eaten. We all know that fast food is not healthy. It has a negative effect on our bodies. First of all, fast food contains a lot of lipids and carbs. If you eat a lot of fast food, you can gain weight. Also problems with digestive system may be caused by eating it. Fast food can also be the cause of problems with skin health.
Фаст-фуд – это еда, которая готова к употреблению. Мы все знаем, что фаст-фуд вреден. Его употребление отрицательно влияет на наши организмы. Прежде всего, фаст-фуд содержит много жиров и углеводов. Если вы употребляете в пищу много фаст-фуда, вы можете набрать вес. Также проблемы с пищеварительной системой могут быть вызваны его употреблением. Фаст-фуд также может быть причиной проблем со здоровьем кожи.
What are the examples of fast food? They are sandwiches, pizza, hamburgers, potato crisps and so on. Nowadays it is popular to keep a healthy lifestyle. So people try to make even fast food healthier. For example, many people like cooking and eating vegetable pizza.
Что можно назвать в качестве примеров фаст-фуда? Это сэндвичи, пицца, гамбургеры, картофельные чипсы и т. д. В наше время популярно вести здоровый образ жизни. Поэтому люди стараются сделать даже фаст-фуд более здоровым. Например, многие люди любят готовить и кушать овощную пиццу.
I do not like fast food. Some people cannot refuse fast food. I do not understand it. Of course, this kind of food is quite delicious but it makes no differ. Healthy food may also be delicious. I do not want to say that fast food is something you should refuse completely. Sometimes my friends arrange parties and fast food is very good for it. But it should not be eaten every day.
Я не люблю фаст-фуд. Некоторые люди не могут отказаться от фаст-фуда. Я не понимаю этого. Конечно, этот вид еды довольно вкусный, но это ничего не меняет. Здоровая пища также может быть очень вкусной. Я не хочу сказать, что фаст-фуд – это то, от чего вы должны отказаться полностью. Иногда мои друзья устраивают вечеринки, и фаст-фуд очень хорошо подходит для этого. Но его нельзя употреблять в пищу каждый день.

Перевод:
Ты, то что ты ешь! Можем мы ли мы питаться правильно? Мы можем встретить кафе и рестораны на каждом углу. Поэтому, фаст фуд так популярна среди взрослых людей, но в большинстве случаев, среди детей. Но как эта еда влияет на здоровье?
Почему люди предпочитают фаст фуд? Во-первых, это хорошая возможность перекусить, когда у тебя нет достаточно времени. Эта еда готовится очень быстро и вам не нужно ждать долго и быть голодными. Во-вторых, фаст фуд не дорогая еда и вы можете купить ее везде. Если ты хочешь кушать, тебе не надо платить много денег. В-третьих, фаст фуд вкусна и питательна.
Но некоторые люди не едят фаст фуд. Они думают, что это нездоровая пища и вредна для здоровья. Эта еда состоит из холестерина, из-за этого люди, которые часто едят ее, страдают ожирением и склонны к сердечным болезням, болезням желудка и некоторым другим проблемам.
Мы должны понять, что еда – это важная часть нашей жизни. Нам следует выбирать здоровую пищу, которая не вредна для нас. Я против фаст фуда, но иногда я могу позволить себе перекусить, когда я ужасно голодна и не располагаю средствами, чтобы покушать правильно. Пища должна быть полезной, а фаст фуд разрушает наше здоровье, а мы знаем что “здоровье это величайшее богатство”.

Fast FoodФаст фудModern life runs so quickly that people often don’t have enough time to eat. And most certainly they get little time for cooking. Lots of people think that fast food is the best solution in this situation. That’s why fast-food chains have become so popular. They provide simple menus, which usually contain French fries, hamburgers, sandwiches, salads, milk cocktails, brownies and else. Perhaps the most famous fast-food chain is McDonalds. This place is rather popular among children and grown-ups. People like having food which is cooked beforehand and served quickly. However, doctors all over the world find fast food rather unhealthy. They say that fast food contains many calories, lots of fat and just a few vitamins. They also say that eating fast food every day leads to overweight and stomach problems. Luckily, people today are more health-conscious than before and they realize that eating lots of fast food can be dangerous. The question about fast food always brings up many opinions. Some people state that it’s not bad at all. Usually those people have lots of work to do during weekdays and fast food is a good idea for lunch. Children are also among those who like fast-food chains. They especially like getting toys with their meal. McDonalds was the first restaurant to use this strategy. Others avoid eating fast food because it can lead to the following health problems: high blood pressure, heart diseases and obesity. In conclusion, I’d like to say that everyone has a choice. I choose fresh fruit and vegetables. That’s why when I’m at a fast-food restaurant I order a salad and an orange juice.Современная жизнь протекает так быстро, что людям часто не хватает времени, чтобы поесть. И, безусловно, у них мало времени для приготовления пищи. Многие люди думают, что фаст фуд является лучшим решением в такой ситуации. Вот почему сети быстрого питания стали столь популярны. Они предоставляют простое меню, которое обычно содержит картофель фри, гамбургеры, бутерброды, салаты, молочные коктейли, пирожные и т.д. Пожалуй, самой известной сетью ресторанов быстрого питания является Макдоналдс. Это место довольно популярно как среди детей, так и среди взрослых. Людям нравится еда, которая готовится заранее и подается быстро. Тем не менее, врачи во всем мире считают фаст фуд нездоровой пищей. Они говорят, что фаст фуд содержит много калорий, много жира и очень мало витаминов. Они также говорят, что ежедневное употребление фаст фуда приводит к избыточному весу и проблемам с желудком. К счастью, люди сегодня больше заботятся о своем здоровье, чем раньше, и они понимают, что употребление фаст фуда в больших количествах может быть опасным. На вопрос о фаст фуде всегда возникает множество мнений. Некоторые люди заявляют, что это вообще неплохо. Обычно у этих людей много работы в будние дни и фаст фуд является хорошей идеей для обеда. Дети также относятся к тем, кто любит фаст-фуд сети. Им особенно нравится получать игрушки вместе с едой. Макдоналдс был первым рестораном, который использовал эту стратегию. Другие избегают фаст фуд, потому что это может привести к следующим проблемам со здоровьем: высокому кровяному давлению, заболеваниям сердца и ожирению. В заключение я хотела бы сказать, что у каждого есть выбор. Я выбираю свежие фрукты и овощи. Вот почему, когда я бываю в ресторане быстрого питания, я заказываю салат и апельсиновый сок.
What does the word “food” mean to you? Is it a pleasure or just a fuel? This question has been disputable for a long time and everybody has his personal opinion about it. The majority of people would agree that we eat in order to have enough energy to complete our routine tasks. Nevertheless, nobody would agree to eat the same set of products from day to day. Moreover, food is certainly more than just a number of proteins, fats and carbohydrates. It’s the way to get some satisfaction after a long working day for the vast majority of people.
As for me, I can’t say that food is just a fuel but it’s surely not a religion in my house. I suppose I have traditional meals such as breakfast, lunch and dinner, but I can have several snacks between my meals as well if I get hungry. I’m trying to keep a healthy diet, so my breakfast usually includes cereals with yogurt or oatmeal with eggs. Also, I can add some fruit to my breakfast, but I always drink a cup of coffee in the morning. It helps me to wake up and be ready for the day. I usually have lunch in the canteen at school, so it depends on what they offer there.
Dinner is a family meal. We usually get together in the evening when my parents come back from work. My mother is an excellent cook and I really like all the dishes she makes. We usually eat some fish or meat with vegetables or porridge for dinner. I can’t cook that well, but I have a number of specialties that I usually make for holidays. They are some salads and cakes.
At weekends my friends and I go to the cafe or pizzeria to eat out. It’s a good way to enjoy delicious food and communicate with the people I care about at the same time. We prefer to order some salads and pizza, drink different kinds of non-alcoholic cocktails.
Thus, I’m sure that food can bring us some kind of pleasure, but I don’t consider it the sense of our life. So we should eat to live but not live to eat.
Сочинение на тему О еде
Что для вас значит слово «еда»? Это удовольствие или просто топливо? Этот вопрос обсуждается уже давно, и у каждого есть свое личное мнение по этому поводу.
Большинство людей согласится, что мы едим для того, чтобы получать достаточно энергии для выполнения наших ежедневных задач. Тем не менее, никто не согласится употреблять одну и ту же пищу изо дня в день. Более того, еда — это, конечно, более чем просто набор белков, жиров и углеводов. Это способ получить удовольствие после длинного рабочего дня для преимущественного большинства людей.
Что касается меня, то я не могу сказать, что еда — это только топливо, но я и не делаю культа из нее. Я думаю, у меня достаточно традиционные приемы пищи, такие как завтрак, обед и ужин, но я могу пару раз перекусить между приемами пищи, если проголодаюсь. Я стараюсь придерживаться здорового питания, поэтому мой завтрак обычно включает хлопья с йогуртом или овсянку с яйцами. Также я могу добавить фрукты к моему завтраку, и я всегда пью чашку кофе утром. Это помогает мне проснуться и подготовиться ко дню. Обедаю я обычно в столовой в школе, поэтому мой обед зависит от того, что они предлагают там.
Ужин — это прием пищи в кругу семьи. Мы обычно собираемся вместе вечером, когда мои родители возвращаются с работы. Моя мама — отличный повар, мне нравятся все блюда, которые она готовит. Мы обычно кушаем рыбу или мясо с овощами или кашей на ужин. Я не умею готовить так хорошо, но у меня есть несколько особых блюд, которые я готовлю на праздники. Это салаты и торты.
По выходным я хожу с друзьями в кафе или пиццерию, чтобы поесть вне дома. Таким образом, я одновременно наслаждаюсь вкусной едой и общением с близкими людьми. Мы предпочитаем заказывать салаты и пиццу, а также разные безалкогольные коктейли.
Итак, я уверенна, что еда может доставить нам своего рода удовольствие, но я не считаю ее смыслом жизни. Нам следует есть, чтобы жить, а не жить, чтобы есть.

People in developed countries suffer from illnesses resulting from junk food. And doctors say the problem is only going to get worse. As many women work nowadays, parents in general have less time to spend on preparing food.
That`s not just the cooking, but also planning what to eat, doing the shopping and buying fresh food. Families, therefore, increasingly rely on ready made meal, which is high in fat and contain a lot of additives and sugar. It is said that people today have unhealthy diets because of fast food restaurants. Most people only go to a fast food restaurant for a special treat. There is no problem eating fast food if you only do this occasionally.
For many families, they only go to fast food restaurants for children`s parties or special occasions so fast food restaurants cannot be held responsible for unhealthy diets. In fact they are excellent places for families to go to. It is clear that fast food restaurants are having a terrible effect on our cities and towns. It is impossible to go info the city centre without seeing rubbish from fast food restaurants everywhere. The main problem is that they use too much packaging and people just throw this in the streets.
There is some truth in the statement that fast food restaurants are bad for society. If people only go to fast food restaurants, then traditional restaurants might close. This is because they have more expensive prices and because people prefer fast food. It is important that people eat in both fast food restaurants and restaurants which serve their national cuisine. It depends on what is meant by society.
Fast food restaurants are very important for young people. There are not many places where they can go out with their friends. It seems to me that fast food restaurants are having a negative effect on society. When people start eating fast food, they get used to eating lots of sugar and salt. This results in people changing their diets and eating with more salt and sugar at home; which is very unhealthy.
Люди в развитых странах страдают от различных заболеваний в результате приема нездоровой пищи. И врачи делают вывод, что проблема будет только усугубляться. Поскольку большинство женщин в наши дни работают, мы видим, что родители в целом имеют намного меньше времени для приготовления пищи ребёнку.
Меньше времени не только на готовку, но также на покупку свежих продуктов. Многие семьи все больше полагаются на полуфабрикаты, в которых высокое содержание жира, много добавок и сахара. Считается, что люди в наше время имеют нездоровый рацион питания, потому что часто обедают в ресторанах быстрого питания, но далеко не факт, что дело именно в этом. Большинство людей только иногда посещают рестораны быстрого питания. И нет проблемы, если вы употребляете такую пищу нерегулярно.
Для многих семей кафе быстрого питания – это место для проведения детских праздников, так что рестораны быстрого питания не могут быть ответственными за ваш рацион питания. На самом деле они являются отличными местами для посещения всей семьей. Хотя очевидно, что такие места оказывают страшное влияние на наши города. Кажется, где бы вы ни оказались в своем городе, повсюду можно увидеть выброшенные упаковки из-под еды быстрого питания. Основная проблема заключается в том, что используется слишком много упаковочного материала и люди просто выбрасывают это на улицах.
Существует доля правды в утверждении, что рестораны быстрого питания вредны для общества. Если люди и дальше будут так активно посещать кафе быстрого питания, то обычные рестораны с хорошей едой просто потеряют смысл своего существования. А всё потому, что “быстрая еда” намного дешевле, хорошо разрекламирована и вкусна. Это важно, чтобы люди выбирали в качестве места, где можно поесть, традиционные рестораны и национальную кухню. Это зависит от того, что собой представляет определённое общество.
Рестораны быстрого питания очень важны для молодых людей и подростков, так как такие места весьма доступны для них и являются местом встречи с друзьями. Но в целом, мне кажется, что рестораны быстрого питания оказывают негативное влияние на общество. Когда люди начинают есть еду быстрого питания, они привыкают к этим вкусовым ощущениям, и потребляют избыточное количество соли и сахара. В результате люди меняют свой рацион питания и принимают с пищей большое количество соли и сахара даже в домашних условиях, что очень вредно для здоровья.
