W: Welcome back. I'm here talking to James Olive.
M: Hello.
W: Please tell everyone what you do, James.
M: Sure. I go to schools around the country and ask principals to sell healthier food in their cafeterias.
W: Why?
M: Well, lots of schools only sell food and drinks like pizza, burgers, and soda. These are not healthy and
really don't help students learn and feel healthy. Fast food and soda have a lot of sugar and salt in them.
In just a few hours after eating lunch, they will feel tired and it will be harder to listen in class.
W: I see.
M: Instead, cafeterias should sell "brain food" like fruits and nuts. These foods help you study better and 
feel much healthier. So, if your school only sells unhealthy food, you should write a letter to your principal
and ask for healthy options. 
W: Thanks, James.

Dear Mrs. Clancy,
My name is Tony and I am in Class 7D. I am writing to ask you to provide us with healthier food in
the cafeteria.
At the moment, it only sells things like soda and fast food. It really isn't good for students. It makes
us feel tired after eating lunch. My classmate even fell asleep at his desk in math class and got in
lots of trouble. It makes it so difficult for us
to study.

4. What does Tony want the cafeteria to sell?
a. fruit juice b. fast food
c. fresh fruit
I think the cafeteria should sell things like fruit juice and salads. They are so
much better for us and will help us study better and feel healthier. I also
think it should sell less fast food and soda.
Please help make the cafeteria healthier.
Sincerely,
Tony Jones
