For a starter I'd like the cucumber and tomato salad. Yes, of course. And for your main course? Ummm. . . . I'd like roast lamb, please. Does that come with vegetables? Yes, it does. It comes with broccoli and potatoes. Lovely. And for dessert, I'd like the strawberries and cream please. Great. So that's the cucumber and tomato salad for the starter, then the roast lamb and strawberries and cream to finish with. That's right. Thanks! 2 Hi there. Could I order, please? Yes, just a moment, let me find my pen . . . What would you like? The curry and rice, please. Would you like the chicken or vegetable curry? Chicken please. And any starters or desserts for you? No starter thanks, but could I have a piece of the coconut cake, please. Yeah, no worries. Thanks! 3 Hi there. Hiya! What can I get you? Can I have a baked potato with tuna, please. Would you like cheese, too? No thanks, just the tuna. But could I have the spinach and egg salad with it please? Yep! And for dessert, could I have the pear with chocolate sauce? Great choice! That's my favourite. So that's the baked potato with tuna, a spinach and egg salad and the pear and chocolate. Thank you!

Pupil's Book, Unit 8 page 94 1 Listen to the podcast. Who says that they love salads? Hey everyone. Did you know that there are more than 7, 500 kinds of apple in the world? That's right! 7, 500! And would you like to know another interesting fact about apples? Well . . . they're my favourite fruit. And today I'm asking my classmates about the foods they like. Let's find out what they said! Hi! I’m doing interviews for the school podcast. Could I ask you some questions, please? OK. Why not? What's your name and age, please? I'm Daniela, and I'm eleven. How often do you go to restaurants? Not often. I only go to them when it's my grandpa's birthday. What did you have last time you were at one? Well, I had a hamburger for my main course and ice cream for dessert. The hamburger was brilliant - it came with cheese and an egg on it - and chips. Awesome! Yeah -we really enjoyed ourselves! My name's Rob and I'm twelve. And what's your favourite food, Rob? That's easy. It's pizza. But not just any pizza. It has to have the right toppings. And what are those? Ham and pineapple? No, no. It's got to have tomato sauce and cheese, of course. Then it has to have spinach and an egg on top of that! Really? Spinach and egg? Yeah, it's amazing. You can't get pizzas like that in the supermarket - my mum makes them herself. You should come over and try it sometime. Well . . . OK. My name's Mike and I'm ten. Do you often cook? No, I hardly ever cook for myself. I often eat at home but my brother makes our meals And what's your favourite food? Erm. . . My favourite. . . I'm not sure. What's a food you like then? I had a sandwich at my friends' 11th birthday party yesterday. That was amazing. The sandwich was cut to look like a dinosaur. . . Because my friend loves dinosaurs. . . And what was in the sandwich? Dinosaur meat. What! Really? No, tuna. Hi Laura! Could you answer a few questions for the school podcast, please? Yeah, sure. It's about food - could you tell me about the kind of food you like? Well . . . that's hard for me - there are just so many foods I love. I like things that I can make myself! So I love salads - spinach, cucumber and tomato together are amazing. IYeah, that's nice. But my favourite food, that's green curry, with rice. Yeah? Yeah, It's served in this amazing sauce that's made from coconut milk. It's yummy! 2 Listen again.

Pupil's Book, Unit 8 page 98 The girl who turned blue Cast Lisa A young girl from Earth. Tilly Lisa's best friend. She is from the planet Q01. Pop Lisa's grandpa. He is old and wise. Nurse Nurse at Lisa's school. She is kind and friendly. She is a Martian. Temoc He is Lisa's classmate and the school's genius. He's from the planet B162. Scene 1 The year is 2099. Lisa and Tilly are at space school. They are looking at the bulletin board. Oh no! I got an eight in physics. That's OK, isn't it? No, no, it isn't. They'll send me back to Earth. It was difficult to get a place here. I'll help you study. Don't worry! I don't want to go back to Earth. I love it here. Oh no, here comes Temoc. Better luck next time Lisa. Scene 2 Lisa is chatting with her grandpa (Pop) via satellite. Hi, Pop, you've got to help me. I need to improve my brain power. Well, when I was a boy, about 100 years ago, they said that eating bright blue fruit and vegetables helped. Really! Yes, you know, things like blueberries, purple sweet potatoes, blue carrots, and blackberries are blue too. Hmm. I don't know enough about foods to say if that would work. Do you think it's true? I don't know, but what is there to lose? OK. Thanks, Pops. Scene 3 One week later. Lisa is walking into the classroom. Everyone is looking at her. What is everyone looking at? Your face, your hands! What do you mean? You're blue . . . bright blue! Oh no! What's up Lisa? You look a bit ill! Let's go to the nurse now! Scene 4 Lisa and Tilly are with the nurse. She is asking Lisa questions. Have you been eating anything different lately? Err. . . Well, yes. What have you been eating? Blue carrots in my salad (they're awful), lots of blueberries (tasty), purple potatoes and lots of Blue Moon ice cream. Delicious. Yes! It's my favourite. Girls! Didn't you know that if you eat lots of blue food your skin turns blue too? No, I didn't! Why are you eating so many blue vegetables and fruit anyway? I thought it would improve my brain power. Oh! I see. Well, they are good for you but they won't turn you into a genius. You need to do that yourself with hard work. But don't worry, when you stop eating so much blue food, your normal colour will come back. Scene 5 It's the end of the term. Lisa and Tilly are in their classroom. Hi Lisa. Congratulations. Thanks. I have studied really hard this term, every weekend and every night. Wow! Very impressive. How did you get a ten? No secret. Just simple hard work. And maybe a little help from blue food!

Pupil's Book, Unit 8 page 100 2 Listen and read the text. Check your answer to Activity 1. Food labels Eating a healthy diet is important and that means choosing foods with different nutrients. lt's not good for you to eat a lot of food that is high in fat, sugar or salt because it can cause weight problems, bad teeth and even heart disease. But how can you check what is too high in sugar to eat or what has a lot of salt? Food labels are usually on the outside of food and they have got lots of useful nutritional information. Most nutrients are measured in grams (g) or milligrams (mg). Milligrams are very tiny - there are 1, 000 milligrams in a gram. You can use this information to compare foods. Things you can look for are how much fat, salt and carbohydrate there is and how many calories the food's got. Sometimes, these are in different colours to help you, too: Each doughnut contains: CALORIES 225 FAT 10g LOW SUGARS 36g HIGH SALT 0. 4g MED Each slice of cake contains: CALORIES 371 FAT 15g MED SUGARS 53g HIGH SALT 31g HIGH The green colour shows that the doughnut is low in fat, but the red colour is a warning to show it's high in sugar. It has a medium amount of salt, so this is orange. Look at the cake - how is it different? Pupil's Book, Unit 8 page 101 5 Look at the notes for gaps 1-4. Do you agree? Listen and check. Correct any incorrect answers. Now turn to part 3. Questions 1 to 6. You have 20 seconds to look at part 3. You will hear a woman called Yolanda telling a group of school students about her work on a farm. Hello, it's lovely to have you here at Greentree Farm. I've been working here since I was sixteen. I was the shop assistant for two months. However, I enjoyed it so much I stayed! I'm the general manager now and my day starts at seven o'clock. When I arrive, I check the fresh herb deliveries for the local markets. Then I taste some of the vegetables like cucumber to make sure they aren't too bitter to eat. Nowadays more people are vegetarian, so we're busier than we used to be. After that I have a meeting with my boss and we sometimes do that in one of the fields instead of the office. We all carry small radios so we can keep in touch with each other wherever we are. After the meeting, I spend about an hour checking emails and phoning people. There's a small café at the farm so it's also a good time to look for original recipes. Last week the chef cooked a spicy starter with coconut cream and mango. It was full of flavour and healthy too. Dealing with complaints isn't as amusing though. Yesterday, one customer said her curry wasn't hot enough to eat and last week a supermarket said that a box of pears was too sour to sell. Usually, we offer a refund and everyone's happy. What's my favourite job? Well, I must admit I love preparing the ground for planting. We do that every season. It's fantastic when you see something like wild garlic starting to grow. As a young teenager, I wanted to work in a big city. Now, I'm glad that I'm still here in the countryside! Next month we're getting some goats so we can sell fresh milk too. So, have you . . . ? 6 Listen again and write the correct answers for numbers 5 and 6. Now turn to part 3. Questions 1 to 6.

Pupil's Book, Unit 8 page 102 2 Read and listen to Olga and Hassan answering the examiner's questions. Which candidate gives a better answer? Thank you. Can I have the booklet, please? Do you prefer to eat at home or in a restaurant, Olga? Well, because my dad isn't a very good cook, I prefer to go to restaurants. I don't agree. And Hassan, do you like to order lots of food when you go out? I only have one dish. One?! I always ask to see the dessert menu! I love anything sweet with chocolate.
