Read the text and choose an appropriate title. Then complete the gaps.

Read and match the headings and the paragraphs. There is ONE EXTRA heading you don’t need to use. 1) Don’t let pets in the kitchen. Always wash your hands well before you touch any food. Clean the work surfaces well to keep bacteria away. Mop the kitchen floor carefully too. 2) Wash fruit and vegetables well. Never chop raw meat and then use the same knife for other food – to cut your bread for example. There are lots of dangerous bacteria on raw meat. Use sharp knives and chop very carefully. 3) Bacteria can’t live in the cold, but they love warm kitchens! Always keep raw meat, cooked food and dairy products like milk, cheese and yoghurt in the fridge. Don’t put other food next to raw meat!

I usually spend it on my mobile phone, CDs and the cinema. Sometimes I spend it on books or magazines. My mum gives me some more if I do a lot of work in the garden. 3. I like my life at the moment. Although I have to work hard at school, but I have a good time as well. It’s nice being a teenager. You don’t have so many troubles as grown ups have. 4. It starts at 8.30 and finishes at 3.15. It’s quite a short day, but we have lots of homework as well. 5. I love computers! I surf the Net at night or I play on my Playstation. I listen to music a lot. My favourites are McFly, Avril Lavigne, Beyonce and Mis-teeq. I also watch a lot of television. Eastenders is the best soap opera. It’s on four times a week.

All people have habits. They are of different kinds. Drinking water, having breakfast, lunch and dinner and sleeping at night are habits based on instinct. A person has no control over thirst, hunger and sleep. They are therefore inborn habits. There are other habits acquired like brushing your teeth, taking a bath, wearing clothes, combing your hair etc., which help a man to look neat and healthy. A walk in the morning is a good habit for people. The needs of society develop in people some good habits. A person is a social “animal” and one can't live in isolation. Respecting elders, wishing “Good morning”, “Good evening” and “Good night” are good habits. Serving the cause of the poor and needy, and respecting the social laws like observing a queue are good habits. Listening to music and reading books are good habits, which help a person to spend a peaceful life. Going to a temple or offering daily prayers are habits, which serve the needs of the soul. Education is based on the principle of habit formation. Repetition makes learning easy. Learning a language, i.e. speaking, reading and writing, is based on habit. Similarly, education helps in the development of good habits like punctuality, attention, concentration, cooperation, discipline, etc. Good habits lead to good manners. Good manners give us good friends; good friends make good environment; good environment leads to a happy and peaceful life. As there are good habits, there are bad habits too. We acquire them both from our friends and from the society in which we live. Smoking, drinking alcohol, drugging, telling lies, teasing the weak may all be considered as bad habits. Habits are easy to acquire but difficult to give up. So it is better not to acquire a bad habit than to try to get rid of it later. If you make time for healthy habits, you’ll find yourself with extra reserves of energy that will lower your stress and help you to get through life’s challenges. Drink water throughout the day. It’s great for your skin, your digestive system, and weight loss. Cut back on the amount of soda and coffee you drink. Sugar and caffeine dehydrate you and create energy rushes followed by crashes which are ultimately energy-depleting. Physical activities are the most important. Physical activities add joy and activeness to your day-to-day life.

Lack of sleep can affect everything from our emotions to how well we focus on tasks, driving for example. It can affect sports performance, increase (увеличить) our chances of getting sick or overweight. How can we get the sleep we need? Here are some ideas: 1. Be active during the day. You’ve probably noticed how much running around little kids do – and how well they sleep. Follow their example and get at least 60 minutes of exercise a day. Physical activity can make you feel less stressed and more relaxed. Just don’t work too close to bedtime because exercise can wake you up. 2. Say goodnight to electronics. Experts recommend using the bedroom for sleep only. If you can’t make your bedroom a tech-free zone, at least turn everything off for an hour or more before you go to bed. 3. Keep a sleep routine. Going to bed at the same time every night helps the body expect sleep. Creating a set bedtime routine can make this relaxation effect. So finish your day by reading, listening to music, spending time with a pet, writing in a journal, playing Sudoku, or doing anything else that relaxes you. 4. Expect a goodnight’s sleep. Stress can lead to insomnia, the more you worry about sleeping, the greater the risk you’ll lie awake staring at the ceiling. Say, “Tonight, I will sleep well” several times during the day. It can also help to practise breathing exercises before bed. Everyone has a sleepless night once in a while. But if you regularly have trouble sleeping and you think it’s affecting your mood or performance, talk to your doctor.
