Q1.Avantika, a nutrition expert, has
been asked to write an article for a magazine. Write the article on her behalf
on the topic “Food and Emotions”.
Answer:
Food does much more than to just fill our stomachs and physical hunger. It satisfies our emotions and our feelings. Our mood swings throughout the day. In the morning, we are generally active and a good hearty breakfast can pep up our mood in minutes. The afternoon meal generally makes one feel the need for some rest. While a cup of a coffee can put one back to work. Similarly, a fatty meal can make one feel soporific. The experts have used the term ‘emotional eating’ for this.
An emotional hunger comes on suddenly and needs to be satisfied instantly with the food that you crave for. Foods like ice creams and chocolates work wonders to uplift one’s mood. There are many more such examples that make one to believe in the connection between foods and emotions.
Q2.Given below is a picture. Using the ideas from the picture as well your own ideas, prepare an article to be published in your school magazine on the topic ‘Say No to Smoking’ in 120-150 words. You are Deepak/Deepika.
A cigarette contains thousands of chemical compounds and toxic substances. Research shows that cigarette smoking reduces life expectancy by a number of years. People who smoke are more likely to get affected by cancer and cardio-vascular diseases than the non-smokers.
Nicotine, a highly addictive drug, is an important component of cigarettes. Regular smokers are led to addiction due to this drug. Such people are possessed with an uncontrollable desire to smoke, which can be noticed through their strong emotional, mental, or physical reactions.
However, being addicted does not mean that we cannot stop. One must realize that smoking, merely, stains our teeth and deteriorates our health. Therefore, one must spread awareness about the ill-effects of smoking and say no to smoking.
