Here “green” means “unpolluted, unharmful and good for people’s health”. There are some other words used in the same way, such as nutrients, carbohydrates, energy.
Question 2. The text gives examples of how people make choices about what they eat. List the examples and the reasons why people eat or don’t eat certain kinds of food.
Answers: Many people today make choices about their eating habits based on what they believe. Some people are vegetarians, because they believe it is healthier not to eat meat or because they do not think we should kill animals for food. Some people are vegans, because they will not eat any animal products at all, not even milk or eggs. Others make choices based on how the products are grown or made. For example, they would like to eat eco-foods which are made by using green and clean ways or organic vegetables which are grown without chemicals.
Question 3. How have our eating habits changed? Why? Try to think of as many examples and reasons as possible.
Answers: our eating habits have changed a lot in the past several decades. People have experienced the process from having no enough food to having enough food, and later from having enough food to having better food. Now people buy and eat something, we not only think about if the food will give us the nutrients we need, but also if the food belongs to eco-foods.
Question 4. why do people go to fast food restaurants?
Answer: because it is very convenient for people to go to fast food restaurants. So it can save time for people to work.
Question 5. why is it not good for you to eat too much sugar and fat?
