Vocabulary
Choose the correct words to complete the text. 
We've just stayed in the worst hotel ever! The rooms were dirty and the food wasn't good either - in fact it was 1 disgusting / detested We ordered scrambled eggs for breakfast and when they arrived, they were so 2 smoky / runny, they must have been almost 3 ripe / raw . I couldn't eat either the eggs or the bread that accompanied them, which was 4 stale / tasty. I thought that perhaps lunch would be better, so I ordered a three-course meal in the hotel restaurant, but that was a huge mistake. The soup could have been anything, it was absolutely 5 tasteless / mouth-watering. I ordered steak and chips as a main course, hoping that I would get a nice piece of 6 tender / bland meat with fresh chips. Instead, I got a dry, 7 strong / chewy steak with 8 greasy / creamy chips. Honestly, the oil was almost pouring out of them! The dessert, which was chocolate cake with custard, was no better. It was heavy, 9 smooth / stodgy and far too sweet! And what was worse, the waiter was so rude! I know he's probably paid 10 beans / peanuts but still, why be so unpleasant? I'll never stay there again.

Reading
Read the texts. Match the sentences with the correct person A–D. There is one person you need to use twice.
A
There are many people who are pro-GM food, mainly because producing it has so many advantages, such as disease resistance, cold tolerance and higher nutrition than non-GM foods. But I have my reservations and concerns, and I am not the only one. If you research GM food, you will find that there are thousands of environmental activists, religious groups, scientists and even government officials who criticise it. I think we all believe in changing a situation where private companies want to make as much profit as possible and do not care enough about the potential dangers of GM food. Very few conclusive studies have been done on the possible side effects of GM food on human health – they simply haven’t been around long enough to be sure. That is the main reason why I try to buy as little GM food as possible. 
B
When I go shopping, I try to buy mostly organic food, and I regularly buy food directly from farmers, such as fruit and vegetables and free-range eggs and milk. I am on a low carb diet, so I have to eat a wide range of fresh fruit and vegetables. I never buy white bread, I only eat wholemeal bread and pasta. I always try to avoid dishes which are too sugary or salty. I believe I eat the right amount of calories per day, which is easier when I leave out greasy foods like burgers and chips, or drinks that contain vast amounts of sugar, such as coke or lemonade. So overall, I think I eat a healthy, balanced diet. My cholesterol levels are certainly what they should be, if that is a reliable indication of my state of health.
C
When the weather gets cold, I start craving more stodgy food than in the summer months. So I start buying more of it and eating more of it, and then I start putting on weight. I'm not sure how to change this, as my cravings for stodgy food are just uncontrollable. I wonder if it is natural for everyone during winter. Perhaps I need to see a food specialist to recommend me a diet that would help overcome my cravings, otherwise my weight gain will become a serious health problem.
D
In my family, we've never bought anything but organic food. We do so due to our belief that organic food is more sustainable, natural and shows more concern for the welfare of animals. I personally couldn't eat any meat, poultry, eggs or dairy foods that came from animals that were fed with antibiotics or any other unnatural additives. I also try to buy food from local farm shops which are government certified. One of the most important aspects of organic food is the fact that the farmers producing organic food must use sustainable farming methods which helps conserve soil and water for the next generations. Not only do I strongly dislike the taste of cheap foods, but I also buy organic food for ethical reasons. 
1 _______ doesn't eat fast food as it is too fatty and sugary.
2 _______ eats heavy food because he or she has a strong desire for it .
3 _______ chooses not to consume food that contains added artificial substances.
4 ______ does not buy certain foods due to lack of reliable research on how they might negatively affect us. 
5 _______ is on a special diet that requires them to eat plenty of fresh produce.
