Imagine that someone in authority (for example your boss) instructed you to do the “health” plan you developed in class. After 1 or 2 weeks you decided to quit because it was very unhealthy.

Homework: write a formal letter to this person to explain why you quit the diet and to request a meeting to discuss it further (use vocabulary for consequences in your letter).
---
p. 80 part 1 - choose the correct options to complete the sentences (sometimes both are correct)
1 will show (offer = “will”)
2 Can
3 don’t have to
4 is (no future tense in time clauses)
5 must / have to
6 absorbs
7 Should (asking for advice, not permission)
8 sticks
9 Should I / Do I have to
10 don’t have to
11 has to
12 eat
13 Am I allowed to (The answer ends with “are”, so the question must use the verb “be” as well.)
---
“Must I use this pan?” = You’ve given me this pan, but I would rather use a different one.
(“must” in yes/no questions usually sounds like complaining)
---
part 3 - as a class, make a “chain” of consequences like this example:
I think I’ll go on a diet.
If you go on a diet, you’ll get good health.
If you get good health, you can take a vacation.
If you take a vacation, you might sell your car.
If you sell your car, you can open a restaurant.
If you open a restaurant, you will earn money.
If you earn money, you can buy another car.
---
part 4 - Which words have similar meanings?
cut down on / reduce
cut out / give up
learn / take up
(Remember that they are similar, but not the same.)
You can learn English (or information), but you usually don’t take it up.
You can take up running, but you don’t need to learn how to run.
p. 73 part 9 - Do you remember what all the rest of these words mean?
---
Grammar of transitive phrasal verbs:
I’m going to cut out fatty food. = I’m going to cut fatty food out. (This is separable, because you can put the object in the middle of the verb.)
I’m going to cut it out. (NOT: I’m going to cut out it.) (Pronoun objects must go in the middle of separable phrasal verbs.)

I’m going to cut down on fatty food.
I’m going to cut down on it.
(Three-word phrasal verbs and some two-word phrasal verbs are inseparable, so no object can go in the middle of the verb.)
---
p. 80 part 6 - Tell your partner how often you do these things when you go to a restaurant.
