Part 1
Read the texts. Match the texts (A-C) to the sentences (1-6). You can use each letter more than once.
There is one example.
When you are a student,
you use your brain a lot.
For your brain to work
well, it needs ...
A- Good Breakfast
Experts say that breakfast is much more important than any other meal. Your brain works better when you have eaten. So don’t miss breakfast – especially before an exam! But you need to eat a good breakfast – junk food won’t work.
B- A REGULAR SUPPLY OF ENERGY
Your brain needs a steady supply of energy, so you need to eat carbohydrates. They’re found in bread, pasta, rice and pulses. Chocolate, biscuits and sweets are not good for your brain. They work more quickly than bread and rice, so they give you a short burst of energy, but afterwards you feel more tired.
C- A CONSTANT SUPPLY OF OXYGEN
Your brain needs oxygen, which it gets from exercise. Exercise improves your memory too. You also need a good supply of iron because iron helps your blood to carry oxygen round your body.
D- WATER
Water is much better than sweet fizzy drinks. You need water because dehydration will stop your brain from working well. And remember, water isn’t as expensive as fizzy drinks!
E- A GOOD NIGHT’S SLEEP
Your brain needs several hours’ sleep, so it can ‘update’ itself, just like a computer. Experts say that when you revise for a test or an exam, you should get some sleep as quickly as possible after you’ve done your revision. This helps you to remember what you’ve learned.
Example: To improve your memory you need to exercise .
1. Food that supply energy in a short time is not good for your health
2. Morning meal is the most essential one .
3. An advice that helps you to do well in school.
4. The best and the healthiest fluid for your body ..
5. A gas that you need continuously,
