Will people's eating habits change?

Liệu thói quen ăn uống của mọi người có thay đổi?

[POINT]Point

People's eating habits will probably continue to change as lifestyles, prices and health awareness develop.

[EXPLAIN]Explain

Future diets may include more convenient but nutritionally balanced foods and more plant-based options.

[EXAMPLE]Example

Busy workers may choose ready meals that are healthier than traditional fast food.

[EXTEND]Extend

Cultural preferences will remain important, so change is likely to be gradual rather than everyone adopting the same diet.

Part 3Topic 8 - Food & DrinkEasy-Intermediate

Will some people never eat meat?

Liệu sẽ có một số người không bao giờ ăn thịt?

[POINT]Point

Yes, some people will probably never eat meat because their reasons are deeply connected with beliefs or identity.

[EXPLAIN]Explain

A meat-free diet may reflect ethical, religious or health choices rather than a temporary trend.

[EXAMPLE]Example

Someone who has avoided meat for many years may feel comfortable with plant-based choices and see no reason to change.

[EXTEND]Extend

If the belief is strong, people often stick to their guns even when others prefer different diets.

Part 3Topic 8 - Food & DrinkEasy-Intermediate

Why do many of them not eat meat?

Tại sao nhiều người trong số họ không ăn thịt?

[POINT]Point

Many people do not eat meat because of animal welfare, health concerns or religious beliefs.

[EXPLAIN]Explain

Some choose to give up meat after learning more about farming practices or after receiving health advice.

[EXAMPLE]Example

Others belong to religions or families where meat is restricted or avoided.

[EXTEND]Extend

The reasons are highly personal, so it is better to understand the individual's motivation rather than assume every vegetarian thinks the same way.

Part 3Topic 8 - Food & DrinkEasy-Intermediate

What would happen if there was more meat in Vietnamese food?

Điều gì sẽ xảy ra nếu trong ẩm thực Việt Nam có nhiều thịt hơn?

[POINT]Point

If Vietnamese food contained much more meat, diets could become less balanced unless vegetables and other foods remained equally important.

[EXPLAIN]Explain

Higher meat consumption might increase protein intake, but it could also raise food costs and create health concerns if portions became excessive.

[EXAMPLE]Example

Traditional meals often balance meat with vegetables, rice and soup.

[EXTEND]Extend

The health impact would therefore depend more on overall balance and cooking methods than on meat alone.

Part 3Topic 8 - Food & DrinkEasy-Intermediate

What is the food of your country cooked at home?

Món ăn truyền thống của đất nước bạn thường được nấu ở nhà là gì?

[POINT]Point

In Vietnam, home-style cooking commonly includes rice, vegetables, soup and a simple meat or fish dish.

[EXPLAIN]Explain

These staple dishes use familiar local ingredients and are usually less elaborate than restaurant food.

[EXAMPLE]Example

A family recipe might be braised fish, stir-fried vegetables or a light soup served with rice.

[EXTEND]Extend

Home-style cooking varies by region, but the main idea is a balanced, practical meal that suits everyday family life.
