LESSON B WHAT I WANT TO DO

1. READ THE TEXT AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS BELOW.

My sister Yumiko

Yumiko is a very unhealthy person. She is overweight and she never


exercises. Recently, her doctor told her that she needs to stop
eating junk food or she will have a heart attack. The problem is that
Yumiko loves sweet food and she wants to eat it all day! She
promised to eat healthily, but she always ends up eating pastries or
candy. The other day she didn’t want to eat some donuts our sister
Mina forgot to take home, but she didn’t resist and chose to eat all
of them. A few hours later, she regretted eating the whole box of
donuts. I told Yumiko to try eating sugar free food or fruit, she
promised to do it, but I believe she will go on doing the same,
eating candy. I don’t mean to be pessimistic, but I know her very
well. After all, she is my sister. I remember seeing her eating a
whole cake when we were little. I hope to see her eating better and
that she realizes how much we love her and that she starts doing
something about this situation.
