Fast Food
Doctors in Britain are worried because British teenagers eat lots of crisps, sweets and fat food. Most teens don’t have enough fruit or vegetables and more than one million British schoolchildren are overweight. Some teenagers say that they don’t have time to eat good food, children who have a poor diet often have health problems.
Fast food is typical of Americans’ diet, it was born there. American fast food is now part of life all over the world. McDonald’s, Pizza Hunt, Burger King have restaurants in many countries on all the continents. The only good thing about fast food is its low price. A steady diet of burgers, fries and cola doesn’t give your body vitamins and minerals you need to stay healthy. Fast food is rich in calories but it doesn’t have many important nutrients (питательные вещества).

Leonardo da Vinci – A Great Artist and Scientist
The person I admire the most is Leonardo da Vinci. He was born on the 15th of April in the town of Vinci. His full name was di ser Piero da Vinci, which means Leonardo, son of Piero from Vinci. He was not only one of the greatest painters of all time, but he was also an architect, sculptor, inventor, mathematician and musician.
Leonardo da Vinci was a very intelligent and imaginative man. He created many different designs. Some of them were a bicycle, a helicopter, a parachute and even an airplane! He also liked to study everything in nature. You can find some of his notebooks in museums today. In them you can see drawings of plants and animals as well as detailed sketches of the human body!
Leonardo da Vinci paid a lot of attention to details and his paintings are very realistic. The Mona Lisa, for example, is one of the best known works of art. It is a painting of a woman whose face often makes people wonder if she is smiling or not.
His father’s name was Paolo.
