Living a Long Life

It is often said that Japanese people, on average, live much longer than Europeans. To a large extend this must be due to the food most Japanese people eat since from the point of view of the life-style, life in modern Japan is no less stressful than ours in the west. The Japanese live on a diet largely made up of fish and rice. At lunch-time a typical Japanese family will consume at least twice as many vegetables as we do in Europe. In comparison with Europeans, the Japanese eat far less meat and fewer potatoes; at the same time, they eat seven times more fresh fish than we do which make their diet much healthier by far. It would be fair to say that, in general, the Japanese consume far less sugar than Europeans, though the modern Japanese — frequent visitors to Europe on business or for pleasure — are discovering the pleasures and dangers of western-style eating habits.

1.  The Japanese live as long as people in western countries.

2.  From the point of view of life-style, life in modern Japan is less stressful than in Europe.

3.  The Japanese eat much more vegetables than Europeans.

4.  When in Europe on business, the Japanese try to eat only their national food.

5.  They consume more sugar than we do.

The Treasure (Сокровище)

              Simon Dalton sat unhappily at the kitchen table with his parents. It was the middle of August and it was very hot. They all wanted to go on holiday but they just didn’t have enough money.

        Simon finished his breakfast and went into the garden. Buster, his huge dog, followed him joyfully. Simon lay on the grass. He felt bored. He looked around the garden looking for something to do. Suddenly, he had an idea. “Come on, Buster! Let’s plant some trees!” Simon took a spade (лопата) and started digging.

        Suddenly, his spade hit something hard. It was the top of a small wooden box. He kept digging until he could pull the box out. It took him a long time. He tried to open it but it was locked, so he broke it with his spade. When he opened the box he could not believe his eyes. The chest was full of ancient coins. “Mum! Dad!” he shouted loudly. “Come and see! It looks like treasure!” “It is,” his dad said. “It’s gold!”

        The Daltons took the treasure to the local museum and they were delighted to receive a reward (вознаграждение). Simon was in all the newspapers and they even interviewed him on TV.

        A week later, Simon was on a beautiful beach in Florida, one of the warmest states of their country. He enjoyed swimming and basking in the sun. His idea of planting trees wasn’t such a bad one, after all! He looked at his parents and smiled happily. This was going to be a great holiday.
