question. Here"s part of their discussion.
PETER: I"d like to stay healthy, but to be honest, I only eat food that tastes good. And if food tastes
good, it"s usually bad for you, isn"t it? Cola tastes better than water, for example.
TONY: Well, food that is bad for you can taste good! But I prefer not to eat much food that is fried,
like, er, French fries. Do you eat fast food, Laura?
LAURA: Do I eat fast food? Never! I love to eat food that is healthy. I want to take care of my health,
so I eat mainly fruit and vegetables. Oh! And I stay away from sugar, you do too, don"t you?
TONY: Hm, yes. And I think most people are in agreement that fruit and vegetables are good for health.
But, um, I would say that fast food itself isn"t always bad for you, but too much of it is not good.
LAURA: Actually, did you know that it"s been found in laboratory testing that some types of oil are really
bad for us? So I don"t eat anything that"s been cooked in oil. Also, did you know that some foods might
cause cancer? Like burnt barbecued meat. I"ve heard eating burnt food like this can increase (增加)the
risk of cancer.
PETER: Really! But I love to eat meat that"s well cooked, even if it is a little burnt. It"s delicious, and
meat isn"t really dangerous, is it?
LAURA: Oh! Yes, it is! I never eat meat. It"s not at all good for our health. If I were you, I"d eat nuts
instead.
TONY: Well, I agree it"s good to eat lots of fruit and vegetables, but I think it"s also fine to eat some
meat or fish. People who eat a balanced diet should be healthier than those who only eat biscuits and
hamburgers, shouldn"t they? I prefer to only eat food that I like, but isn"t it important to eat food that"s
healthy, even if you don"t like it? The main thing is to have a good balance.

It will tell you a lot about the word: the pronunciation, the Chinese meaning and how to use the word. But how can you know where the word is thousands of English words? How to find it in the dictionary both quickly and correctly?First, all the English words are arranged(安排) in the letter order. In the dictionary you can first see the words beginning with letter A, then B, C, D…. That means, if there are two words “desert” and “pull”, “desert” will be certainly before “ pull”. Then if there are two words both beginning with the same letter, you may look at the second letter. Then the third, the fourth…For example, “pardon” is before “plough”, “judge” before “just”, etc. For example, “pardon” is before “plough”, “judge” before “just”, etc.Do you understand how to look up in the dictionary?The dictionary will be your good friend. I hope you’ll use it as often as possible in your English study.Do you understand how to look up in the dictionary?
