STRANGE CELEBRITY DIETS

Here's my list of today's top four strangest celebrity diets.

#1 - MY FAVOURITE! Christina Aguilera does the seven-day colour diet, eating food of a different colour every day for a week. Day one is white, but that means white fruit and vegetables, not white bread or white rice! This is followed by red, green, orange, purple, yellow and on the seventh day, all of the colours. This diet might encourage you to try new things, like ripe avocado and you'd get plenty of vitamins. I think this is the only one I would actually try.

#2 Katy Perry keeps in shape with the mushroom diet, but instead of enjoying a bowl of delicious mushroom soup, she swaps one meal a day with raw mushrooms for fourteen days at a time.

#3 Gwyneth Paltrow, Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon choose the baby food diet which involves eating fourteen jars of baby food a day, and one low-calorie meal of lean meat or fish and green salad.

#4 Once, when Beyoncé was preparing for a video shoot, she went on a detox. This involved living on lemon juice, sweetened with maple syrup and made a little less bland with cayenne pepper.

The Real Junk Food Project

1___________

Adam Smith is the founder of THE REAL JUNK FOOD PROJECT. He is passionate about collecting food that has been discarded by supermarkets, and transforming this wasted food into healthy nutritious meals.

Smith worked as a head chef for ten years and thought of the idea for The Real Junk Food Project when he was travelling in Australia and witnessed the scale of food waste in the agricultural sector and catering industry. The global statistics are shocking: roughly one third of food produced in the world for human consumption every year gets lost or wasted. Smith founded The Real Junk Project to fill the gap between hunger and excess food, and to raise awareness about how much food goes to waste.

“Over 800 million people in the world (that's one in every nine people on Earth) do not have enough food…’’

2___________

Smith started the project and opened the first Real Junk Food café in his hometown Leeds in 2013. Since then, the concept has been exported as far away as Los Angeles and Brazil, Warsaw and Zurich. The idea is simple: volunteers go out and collect food from various sources: farms, restaurants, factories and supermarkets. Meals are produced and sold in cafés on a 'pay-as-you- feel' (PAYF) basis so that nobody is excluded. The cafés are for the community in general, not only for the poor. Those who can afford it pay what they think the meal is worth, while those who can't afford to buy meals from the café can earn their meals by volunteering for instance, they can help with the washing up.

THINK LIKE A WINNER

I'm a sports psychologist. I work with top athletes and I encourage them to prepare for important competitions. Of course, they need to prepare physically: they should get plenty of sleep, remember to drink lots of fluids and avoid drinking alcohol. That's the easy part!

That was the first time I went to a restaurant like Le Ponce before. It was so elegant. I was there to celebrate Emma's engagement. We had shared a flat as university students, and now she was going to marry a very wealthy businessman. Lucky girl! A waiter pulled out my chair for me. As I settled into my seat, I noticed all the different knives, forks and spoons for each guest. There was an unusual one. That's when I started to panic. 'What's it for? When do I use it? What if I embarrass myself?' I wondered. And at that moment, oh dear, the first course arrived…

1. The author of the text

A thought she wouldn't like the first course.

B wasn't used to the situation.

C didn't know which knife was hers.

THE BIG FISH

If good service is important to you when you eat out, you'll love The Big Fish. From the moment you walk in and sit at your table, the staff make you feel welcome. My waiter patiently explained the menu and recommended the salmon pie with spinach, which I ordered. I was greatly impressed by the presentation. It resembled a work of art on the plate and I didn't know whether to eat it or look at it! Unfortunately, it didn't smell good as it lacked flavour.

3. What is the author's intention in writing the text?

A to express an opinion

B to give instructions.

C to advertise a place

Chef Sam Stern, who has been writing about cooking since he was just fourteen, shares his cooking tips for students who are leaving their families soon and heading off to university.

1 Try and learn the basics before you leave home: you will know what recipes work for you and what equipment to take. There probably won't be much storage space in your student kitchen, so only take the essentials.

2 Get someone to cook with you if you haven't cooked before. ^A ___

3 Don't get stressed out if things go wrong; you will learn from it. ^B ___ The skill of a good cook is learning how to correct these mistakes.

4 Look out for good places to shop - butchers' and greengrocers' can often offer better value and taste than supermarkets. They can also give you some great advice for what to do with the cheaper cuts of meat or more unusual vegetables.

5 Put your money together with your housemates to create your kitchen store cupboard - herbs, spices, etc. ^C ____ They make a world of difference to the flavour of your meals, so are well worth the investment.

6 Great eating starts with wise shopping. If you make a plan before you head to the supermarket, you'll avoid making impulse buys. ^D ____ Shop at the end of the day as you will find the reduced section full, which means great bargains.

7 Plan food that will last for more than one meal if you can. ^E ____  A curry or a stew can last for days and is often cheap to make. The freezer is your friend!

8 Cooking with your friends and housemates is not only a great social event but also lets you split the cost. I'm a student and every Tuesday night we have a dinner party for ten to fifteen people, with each person paying a few quid. As a result, we have wonderful huge roast dinners and lots and lots of laughs.

Tạm dịch

Đầu bếp Sam Stern, người đã viết về nấu ăn từ khi mới mười bốn tuổi, chia sẻ những mẹo nấu ăn của mình cho những sinh viên sắp rời gia đình và lên đường đến trường đại học.

1 Hãy thử và tìm hiểu những điều cơ bản trước khi bạn rời khỏi nhà: bạn sẽ biết công thức nấu ăn nào phù hợp với mình và thiết bị nào cần mang theo. Có thể sẽ không có nhiều không gian lưu trữ trong nhà bếp sinh viên của bạn, vì vậy chỉ lấy những thứ cần thiết.

2 Nhờ ai đó nấu ăn cùng nếu bạn chưa từng nấu ăn trước đó. A ____

3 Đừng căng thẳng nếu mọi thứ không như ý muốn; bạn sẽ học được từ nó. B ____ Kỹ năng của một đầu bếp giỏi là học cách sửa những sai lầm này.

4 Hãy tìm những địa điểm tốt để mua sắm - những người bán thịt và người bán rau quả thường có thể mang lại giá trị và hương vị tốt hơn so với siêu thị. Họ cũng có thể cho bạn một số lời khuyên hữu ích về những việc cần làm với những miếng thịt rẻ hơn hoặc những loại rau khác thường hơn.

5 Bỏ tiền của bạn cùng với những người bạn cùng nhà để tạo ra tủ đựng đồ trong nhà bếp của bạn - thảo mộc, gia vị, v.v.  C ____ Chúng tạo ra một thế giới khác biệt cho hương vị bữa ăn của bạn, vì vậy rất đáng để đầu tư.

6 Bữa ăn tuyệt vời bắt đầu từ việc mua sắm khôn ngoan. Nếu lập kế hoạch trước khi đi siêu thị, bạn sẽ tránh được việc mua sắm bốc đồng. D ____ Hãy mua sắm vào cuối ngày vì bạn sẽ thấy phần giảm giá đã đầy, nghĩa là những món hời lớn.

7 Nếu có thể, hãy lên kế hoạch cho thức ăn có thể kéo dài nhiều hơn một bữa. E ____ Món cà ri hoặc món hầm có thể để được trong nhiều ngày và thường rẻ tiền. Tủ đông là bạn của bạn!

8 Nấu ăn với bạn bè và bạn cùng nhà không chỉ là một sự kiện xã hội tuyệt vời mà còn giúp bạn chia đôi chi phí. Tôi là sinh viên và mỗi tối thứ Ba chúng tôi tổ chức tiệc tối cho mười đến mười lăm người, mỗi người trả vài bảng. Kết quả là, chúng tôi có những bữa tối nướng thịnh soạn tuyệt vời và rất nhiều tiếng cười.
