Упр.4a Модуль 6a ГДЗ Spotlight 10 класс

Приведем выдержку из задания из учебника Юлия Ваулина, Джунни Дули 10 класс, Просвещение: 4a. List which colour foods you ate yesterday. How do you think colour is related to food? Listen to and read the text on p. 103 to find out. A Colour is important to almost everybody. It makes life interesting. We all have opinions about we like to wear, and the colours we like to have around us. What did you know that colour also affects our health and our bodies in a lot of different ways? B Warm colours like red and yellow can make us feel like eating. Just seeing something red can make our heart bat faster and increase our blood pressure as well as our appetite. This may actually be genetic, because our ancient ancestors had to be able to tell when fruit was ripe, so it was very helpful for them to be attracted to red and yellow. C Other colours can make us lose our appetite. Give somebody a blue cupcake, and they might not want to eat it. Blue consistenly wins the prize fo the least apperitizing colour. This may also be in our genes because, for our ancient ancestors, blue and purple could have been colour wearing signs for foods that were spoiled or poisonous. D These natural reactions we have to colour can be put to good use. Did you ever notice that restaurants are often painted in warm colours? This helps diners enjoy their meals, and eat more, too. Also, it might not be a good idea to paint your kitchen blue, unless you want to lose weight. This brings us to a dieting trick; if you want to eat less, try using a blue plate! E Even more amazingly, the actual flavours we taste depend on colour. To prove this, people were given coloured drinks to taste and they could all recognise the flavours, cherry, grape and lemon-lime. However, when the couldn’t see the colours of the drinks, the same people could not recognize the flavours very well. For example, only 30 percent of the people could recognize the cherry drink. Most people thought it was lemon-lime. F Finally, foods are the colours they are because of the nutrients and vitamins they contain. Red and purple foods contain chemicals called antioxidants that help to keep u from ageing. Green vegetables contain iron which the body needs to make new red blood cells, and Vitamin K which keeps the blood moving easily around the body. Orange and yellow foods contain carotenes, which the body uses to make Vitamin A, which is very important for good eyesight. This means that it is important to eat a rainbow of food, every day! Rainbow of food A Red foods get you moving. They give you that extra boost when you really need it the most. What’s more, eating foods in this group will protea you from many serious illnesses and can keep older people active for longer. So, have you got a big game tonight? Is it your turn to do the gardening? Then go ahead and treat yourself to one or even two of your favourite red foods. B Orange foods are brain food. They help you keep your mind on things and really improve your powers of concentration. On the physical side, foods like mangoes, oranges and peaches have lots of vitamin C. This is important because that’s the vitamin that helps your body fight off infections. As everyone knows, carrots are also fantastic for your eyesight. After all, you’ve never seen a rabbit wearing glasses, have you? C Yellow foods are nature’s way of helping us to stay happy. They make you more optimistic. Imagine that you’re feeling a bit down in the dumps. Eat a banana and you’ll feel a bit better. Eat a couple of slices of pineapple and you’ll feel a smile coming on and by the time you finish your tall glass of lemonade, you’ll be grinning from ear to ear! What could be easier? Enjoying yellow foods is better for you, emotionally, than hearing the best jokes in the world. D Broccoli, lettuce and cucumbers are all green foods. These foods are great when you want to relax, calm yourself down or keep your emotions under control. Green foods are good for you because they contain vitamins and minerals that keep your teeth and bones strong and healthy, so next time your mum tells you to eat all your peas don’t complain, just do it. Remember, mums always know what’s best for you, no matter how old you are! E You’ve had a hard day and now you just want to flop in front of the TV for a bit before you go to bed. When your tummy starts rumbling you go in search of a quick snack — but what should you eat? The best thing at this time of the day is something blue Blue foods are soothing, both emotionally and physically, and prepare you for a good night’s rest. Say goodnight with a delicious bowl of blueberries or a handful of tasty raisins. F Shakespeare, Da Vinci and Picasso must have all been fans of purple foods. This is because fruits and vegetables like figs, prunes and beetroot make people more creative. If that isn’t a good enough reason to eat them, then think about this … purple foods can keep you looking young! Imagine being eighty years old, but looking as if you’re forty and just about to finish writing your second best-selling novel. Bring on the purple foods! *Цитирирование части задания со ссылкой на учебник производится исключительно в учебных целях для лучшего понимания разбора решения задания.

В тексте говорится о том, что цвет продуктов связан не только с их внешним видом, но и с тем, как они влияют на наше здоровье, настроение и даже вкус. Например, красные и жёлтые продукты возбуждают аппетит, синие помогают есть меньше, а разные цвета фруктов и овощей содержат полезные вещества и витамины.

Ответ: colour is related to food because different colours affect our appetite, mood, taste and health, and each colour group contains useful nutrients.
