Sam:A what?

Cathy:A vegan. I don't eat or use any animal based products.I don't wear any leathers,eat eggs,drink milk or anything that comes from an animal.I used to be a pescetarian before,which basically means you don't eat meat,but still have fish and seafood.

Sam:Wow!How interesting!It must be tough!

Cathy:It's a bit difficult to find vegetarian friendly restaurants sometimes,but since more and more people are vegetarians or vegans nowadays,it's getting better.

凯西:我是不吃肉的。不过没关系。我们去的地方肯定有很多种选择。

萨姆:你是素食主义者呀?我还不知道呢。

凯西:不,我是一个严格素食主义者。

萨姆:那是什么意思?

凯西:意思就是我不食用任何来自动物身上的东西。不穿皮草,不食用蛋类、奶制品或其它任何来自动物的食品。我以前是鱼素者,就是不吃肉但是可以吃鱼类和海产。

萨姆:哇!真有意思!肯定挺难的吧。

凯西:有时候确实很难找到一家支持素食主义的餐馆。不过现在越来越多的人成为了素食主义者或是严格素食主义者,情况也就好多了。

Conversation 1

Sarah:Did you have breakfast this morning?

Kate:No. I'm on a diet.I would like to shed a few pounds of weights.

Sarah:I don't think skipping meals is the best way to go if you want to lose weight.

Kate:How can I lose weight if I don't eat less?

Sarah:Well,without normal meals,your body will try to store more fat and calories than usual because skipping meal lowers your metabolism. You will eat a lot more for lunch if you don't have enough to eat in the morning.

Kate:I'm always wondering how you can stay in such a good shape. You don't even go to the gym,and your diet is normal.What's your secret?

Sarah:Well,a balanced diet is the key. I try to make sure I always have enough protein and vegetables and less fat and sugar for each meal.

Kate:All these rules sound very easy. I should give it a shot.Thank for the tips.
