Приведем выдержку из задания из учебника Комарова, Ларионова 10 класс, Русское слово: Writing: an essay
A In pairs, answer these questions.
1 What food can you buy at school?
2 Is it good for you? Is it nutritious?
3 Do you think it is important that healthy food is sold at schools? Why?
В Read this notice from a school magazine. Do you agree? Why / Why not?
C Read this essay below. What does the writer think? Do you agree with him / her?
Too many people today eat unhealthy food. The problem usually begins when we are children, which is why some people believe that schools should ban junk food.
B
it’s well known that junk food contains a lot of fat and sugar. as a result, it can make people overweight and cause even more serious diseases like diabetes, in addition, junk food is like a drug — the more you eat it. the more addicted you become. I am sure, nothing is worse than this.
C
On the other hand, some people say that we should be able to eat what we like. They believe that what we eat at home is more important, and that is why the food sold at school canteens cannot really harm us.
D
But think how much time we spend at school and it becomes obvious that what we eat there is a substantial part of our daily menu, therefore, I am sure that what we eat at the canteen should be both fresh and nutntious. Personally though, l prefers to rely on my lunchbox.
F
To conclude. I think that because we spend so much time at school, the habits we develop there, for example what we eat. are important. I believe schools should make sure that students eat healthily.

We should give up eating junk food.
Nowadays, many people eat too much unhealthy food, and this has become a serious problem. Some people believe that we should stop eating junk food completely.
In my opinion, junk food should be avoided as much as possible. First of all, it contains a lot of fat, sugar and salt, so it can make people overweight and cause health problems. Secondly, healthy food such as fruit and vegetables contains many vitamins and helps us stay fit. Finally, if we get used to eating nutritious food, we will have more energy and feel better every day.
However, some people think that junk food is convenient because it is cheap, tasty and easy to buy. They also say that busy people do not always have time to cook healthy meals.
I do not agree with this opinion. Although junk food may be convenient, it is not good for our health. We can choose healthier food instead, even if it takes a little more time.
To conclude, I believe that we should give up eating junk food and choose healthier products whenever possible.
