She has many spots on her face, and she’s a little overweight too.
3. Why can't she stop eating chocolate?
They sell chocolate everywhere: at the station - bus, train, underground. Sometimes she tries to stop but if she doesn't have any, she gets very bad headaches. However, as soon as she has some chocolate she feels better and happier too.
Script: I know that I have a big problem. I can't stop eating chocolate! I started eating chocolate as a child. My sisters and I all ate a lot of different kinds of chocolate. However, my sisters and I are adults now and I'm the only one who still eats it a lot. So, how much do I eat? Well, I have about 10 bars of chocolate a day. At Christmas we got a giant family-sized bag of chocolate sweets, I ate the whole bag on my own in two days! I know eating a lot of chocolate is bad for my health. There's a lot of sugar in all types of chocolate. There's also a lot of fat. I think that's why I have many spots on my face, and I'm a little overweight too. I know that it's also very bad to take and eat chocolate that's not mine but I can't stop myself. What can I do? At the supermarket there's always chocolate for sale while I wait to pay for my shopping. At the station - bus, train, underground — there's always chocolate for sale in machines. Sometimes I try to stop but if I don't have any, I get very bad headaches. However, as soon as I have some chocolate I feel better and happier too. I try to speak to my family but nobody understands. They all like chocolate but nobody wants to eat 10 bars a day, and nobody understands why I do. I need help! Please tell me what I can do to stop eating chocolate!

1. How old is Mr Cansler?
He is 99.
2. What kind of life did he have when he was young?
He was one of ten children in his family. He had no idea what a healthy diet was. He was happy if he had enough to eat. There was no need to take any exercise, the work on the farm was hard, and he spent all days outdoors.
3. What does he recommend listeners to do?
He recommended them to be as active as possible and have a positive attitude.
Journalist: Mr Cansler, how does it feel to be one hundred?
Mr Cansler: Well, actually, I'm not one hundred yet. My birthday's in two weeks' time.
Journalist: You're in perfect shape, what do you do to keep fit?
Mr Cansler: Nowadays, people seem to be crazy about having a healthy lifestyle. When I was young, nobody thought about such things. I was one of ten children in my family. We had no idea what a healthy diet was. We were happy if we had enough to eat. There was no need to take any exercise, the work on the farm was hard, and we spent all days outdoors. You had to be strong; I lost one brother and one sister quite early, but those that survived lived into an old age. We all probably took after my father, who died at the age of ninety-four.

Journalist: Have you ever smoked?
Mr Cansler: Well, I haven't tried cigarettes, no. But once I thought I'd look interesting with a pipe* so I tried that. But my wife couldn't stand it, so after a week or so I threw the pipe away.
Journalist: What can you advise our listeners?
Mr Cansler: I don't think you can do anything to guarantee a long life. You can't avoid hardships, even tragedies. What you can do is be as active as possible and have a positive attitude.
Journalist: Thank you, Mr Cansler.

Nancy: We don't have to clean up our rooms at college, Mother.
Mum: That's very nice, and I'm happy you're going to such a free-willing* [.frh'wiliq] ^ institution. But while you are here in the house I would like you to clean up your room.
Nancy: What difference does it make? It's my room.
Mum: I know, dear. But your father is very much afraid of the plague*. He said this morning if it's going to start anywhere in this country, it's going to start in your room.
Nancy: Mother, you, people, aren't interested in anything really important. Do you realise how big corporations are polluting our environment?
Mum: Your father and I are very much worried about it. But now we are more concerned about the pollution in your bedroom.

Nancy: I never do it at the college.
Mum: Of course you don't, and I'm sure the time you save goes towards your education, doesn't it? But we still have that old-fashioned idea about making beds in the morning. And since you are at home, why don't you do it to please us?
Nancy: All right, all right. I'll clean up my room if it means that much to you. But I want you to know you've ruined my vacation.
