AN ORANGE A DAY KEEPS THE DOCTOR AWAY
Most people today know how important it is to have a careful diet. If for some reason this is not possible we have available to us a wide (2) of dietary supplements including vitamins and minerals. One of the earliest researchers to recognize the role dietary deficiencies play in disease was the Scottish surgeon, James Lind. Lind analysed the diets of thousands of British sailors who had taken long sea voyages and discovered that they ate (4). or no fresh fruit such as lemons or oranges. He came to the conclusion that a lack of these fruits led to the disease (6) as “scurvy”. Scurvy had occurred throughout human history during times of warfare and famine when people could not get fresh foods like fruit, vegetables and meat. However, when Europeans began to make long voyages of exploration in the fifteen and sixteen centuries the problem (8) more acute. By the eighteenth century, more sailors were dying of scurvy on British ships than as a result of warfare. Lind proved his theory by (9) .the crew of one ship with a supply of fresh lemon juice and comparing the health of the sailors at the end of a long voyage with a second crew that had had only conventional meals. Many of this second group of sailors developed scurvy while the crew who had had saccess to the lemon juice were healthy.

Read the passage and do the tasks that follow (2 points)
I remember the feeling of the first time I left home that I would never be able to feel at home anywhere but in my home. No other place would have my mum, my dad, my annoying little brother and my cat, Tilly. Nowhere would smell like my home-my mum’s roast chicken in the oven and the salty, seaweeds smell that drifted in from nearby beach. The sound of the seagulls squawking was the sound of home. Nowhere else would I feel comfortable enough to put my feet up under me and gaze into the log fire dreaming of the future. 
I was 15 when I first went away from home on a school trip to Germany. My friend was going too, but we would all stay with different families. I was nervous about this. I knew the home I was going to would not be as comfortable as mine, the family would not be as kind, and who knew what the German food would be like? I knew I would spend three weeks, homesick and sad, missing my family back home. We arrived in Germany late at night after a long journey by coach and boat. I was tired and hungry. I went into school hall, where my host families were waiting to meet us. I wondered which one would be mine. Would they give me dinner at this time and would I be able to eat the unfamiliar food? Suddenly I heard my name called and the name of my exchange partner, Brigitte Schmitt. A pretty blond girl stepped forward, smiling widely. Behind her stood her parents, a pleasant-looking couple who were also smiling. They held out their hands and said: “ Wilkommen in Deutschland. Welcome to Germany.”
I spent three happy weeks with the Schmitt family. Brigitte had an elder brother, Hendrik, and a younger sister, Lisa. They had two cats: Ping and Pong, who sat on my lap as I looked into the fire in the evenings. The whole family were kind and welcoming. My room was cosy and warn and looked out onto a forest. The fresh clean smell of the trees and of apples baking in the oven became familiar and comforting, like the smells of home. I learned in those three weeks that you can feel at home anywhere that people kind to you.
Later that year, Brigitte came to stay with me in the UK. I gave her my room and move in with my brother. I cleared space for her clothes and put fresh flowers in a vase by the bed. I asked my mum to make her famous roast chicken and an apple pie to make our guest feel at home. We made a welcome banner and put it up on the front door. I did everything I could to help Brigitte feel at home with us. I now understood the importance of a warm welcome.
