Research on eating habits

Dear Dr. S. D. Allan,

I'm writting in order to take part in the experiment on eating habits, which I saw on a magazine and got interested inmediatlly.

First of all I am going to tell you my present eating habits, as you asked. I usually eat 3 meals: lunch, tea and dinner. I skip breakfast because I am used to get up too late. In general I do not eat unhealthy food, like fried food or with lots of fats.

Between those meals I eat lots of things: cookies, cake, waffles, chocolate, etc.

I was wondering if in the exepriment we can choose the food or if they're just fixed meals, and also if the food is free or I have to pay for it.

When would this start? Between Saturday and Thursday, any day is okay for me, so just tell me those three days I could go.

You also mentioned a fee, could you tell me of how much is it?

I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours sincerely,

Belén Alejo.

The sea Hotel.
The sea hotel is a large building on the sea, near an island close to Hawaii.
From the outside it looks really dangerous, obviously, if you see a hotel floating on the sea, the first thing you say it may be 'oh my god that's gonna sink'. But it is not like that, the building is really safe, and it has an aquatic look, very original.

The hotel is very large, it has got 100 rooms and the aquarium, all of which have bathrooms and fridge.
The one I stayed was really clean, it was very big and confortable.
It had a big TV and a big bed, it was really warm, beacause it had air conditionin.
For the people that can afford, there are rooms much bigger and with 2 bathrooms and a computer with internet.
The aquarium is enormus, it has lots of fish, 5 sharks, seastars, sea horses and lots of other aquatic animals.

The level of service was ok. The TV broked, and on the 5 minutes they where reparing it.
For eating, you have to call to ask for it, and in 15 minutes it will be in your room. Even if it is three in the morning!

In conclusion, the Sea Hotel is an excelent hotel, exotic and confortable, perfect for those who

TECHNOLOGY AT HOME

Hi Jo!

How are you? I'm fine, well, I'm going to tell you how we use technology in my family.
We use technology always, because it's a good way of communication, for example, the cellphones, we don't leave home without our cellphone.
Then, well, our house is full of technology for entertainment or ways of communication.
My parents use technology for their job, their job is certainly based on the use of technology, but I use technology only for entertainment and communication,
but I think it probably could help me in the future to work, although, in fact, nowadays technology helps me at school, or for learning
for example, if I want to know something, y just search "something" on the internet in tead of asking someone.
In conclusion, in my family we use a lot of technology for diverse reasons.
That's all!
see you n_n.

DO YOU WANT TO KEEP FIT

Do you want to keep fit? And meet new friends? Did you know that doing sports is good for our body, self-esteem and health? Yes, it’s really good for ourselves, so, why don’t you start doing some sport? Why aren’t you on the athletics club?

‘This club really helped me, because I hadn’t had any friends who like sports like me, so I joined to the club and now I have lots of friends who like the same as me! And of course, now I’m on fit!’ said Robbie Collinson, one of the first members of the club. ‘There are lots of things to do in this club, well… everything, all sports are practised here, and the trainers are excellent!’ said another member, I agree with him!

The members meet on Tuesdays and Fridays at 6-8PM, so, what are you waiting for? ‘Most teenagers think doing athletics is boring, but, that’s not true! Here we have a lot of fun, it’s not everything about running, no, for example, once a month we have a little break of half an hour and we have a picnic! Sometimes we are visited by important sports people and we talk with them!’ said Alice Cobbins, the trainer.

Try it! If you want more information contact Mrs West (who runs the club).

TV

Do children nowadays watch too much TV?

Nowadays children watch TV to relax, for entertainment or in a few cases for learning.
Specially, when they are one vacation, they watch more TV than they usually do, which sometimes is not very good but, I think they don't watch it redundantly.


First of all, I have to say that this is something depends on each child, some of them think TV is boring, others just don't have TV
and others are not allowed to watch TV.
I really do not know any child that spends all day watching TV, I think it would be boring and monotonous for them.

Secondly, nowadays TV is losing spectators, because it is getting "old", now there are lots of advanced things that make TV look a lot less entertaining,
for example computers, I think children spend more time playing computer games than watching TV, certainly TV is healthier than computer games because,
for example, you can get "ill" if you play computer games too much, but not if you watch too much TV, besides, there are computer games that
make psychological problems on people, like 'polybius'

In conclusion, I think children do not watch too much TV, and, if they did it, it would not be something bad, because if they don't watch TV
they play computer games, which can be sometimes dangerous and always addictive.
