  2. Agree or disagree? • We should teach receptive skills before productive skills. • Reading and listening are passive activities. • We check understanding with comprehension questions. • The difficulty of the text is very important. • We can’t use authentic texts with low level learners. • We should try to integrate receptive and productive skills.

  6. Dealing with long texts Vegetarian UK? • One of the rising trends in UK food culture is vegetarianism. How far this has been influenced by recent food safety scares is impossible to say. What is certain, however, is that more people are cutting out meat and animal products from their diet. • In 1989 a MORI poll indicated that 3% of the UK’s population was vegetarian, while the results of a similar poll conducted in 2001 estimated that 5.7% of the population were vegetarian. In numbers this means there are over 3 million vegetarians in the UK today and vegetarianism (where you don’t eat meats), and veganism (where you don’t consume any animal products) are becoming more and more mainstream in UK culture. Part of this is down to food scares, but social changes, and the fact that the range of vegetarian food available is so wide, have also played a part. • Why we are healthier eatersMany vegetarians and vegans choose not to eat meat or animal products for ethical reasons regarding the treatment and slaughter of animals for food and the effects of meat and fish production on the environment. Recent food safety scares such as BSE (or ‘mad cow disease’ as it is commonly known) and salmonella have also led many to stop eating meat. Others choose to change their diet in this way for reasons of health. According to the UK’s leading body, the Vegetarian Society, a vegetarian diet could help reduce the risk from certain cancers and the possibility of heart disease as well as various other health problems such as obesity and high blood pressure..........
