Recently, my english teacher give us subjects to read newspaper, and then we make summary and write our own opinion.
A few days ago, she gave us this news as a subject:
Chile Bans Marketing of Toys in Children’s Food | World | TIME.com :
http://world.time.com/2012/08/01/chile-bans-marketing-of-toys-in-childrens-food/
(Actually she made this shorten for us to read easily)
I made summary and my opinion.
Summary:
Chile bans using toys for children's food to draw in children not to increase childhood obesity.
Fast-food companies still use toys for their marketing, but a senator filed a formal complaint with the health ministry.
If health ministry upholds it, the companies will have to quit the way or to be fined.
My Opinion is:
Recently, I watched the movie about the harm of fast-food, "Super Size Me". Scary!
I think that fast-food makes people fat with unnatural fat and sugar, and its calorie is harmfully high. It is seriously problem, especially for children. Because they surely don't have knowledge what they should eat for their health, and easily give away to temptation of fast-food, sweets or toys...
I agree with the movement like what the senator has done.

最近英語の先生は新聞を読むという課題を出し、私たちは要約を作り自分の意見を述べる。
何日か前に、先生は以下のニュースを課題として出した。
『チリ、児童用の食事に玩具を利用するマーケティングを禁止』 :
http://world.time.com/2012/08/01/chile-bans-marketing-of-toys-in-childrens-food/
(実際は彼女は私たちが簡単に読めるように短くしてくれる)
私は要約と自分の意見を作った。
要約:
チリは子供の肥満増加を防ぐため、子供を引き込むために子供用の食べ物に玩具を利用する事を禁止した。
ファストフード会社はまだマーケティングに玩具を利用しているが、上院議員は厚生省に公式な抗議の声明を出した。
もし厚生省がそれを指示すれば、ファストフード会社はその方法をやめるか罰金を払う事になるだろう。
私の意見:
最近、私は「スーパーサイズ・ミー(自分を超特大にしよう)」という映画を見た。恐ろしい!
ファストフードは不自然な脂質と砂糖で人々を太らせ、そのカロリーは有害になるほど高い。特に子どもにとっては深刻な問題だ。彼らは多分健康のために何を食べたらよいかという知識を持っていないし、ファストフードやお菓子、玩具の誘惑に簡単に負けてしまう…
私はこの議員が起こしたような行動に賛成だ。

Recently, our English teacher gave us a newspaper article to read, and then we made a summary and wrote our own opinion.
(Actually, she shortened it so we could read it easily)
I made a summary and gave my opinion.
Chile has banned the usage of toys to draw in children to unhealthy food, in an attempt to decrease childhood obesity.
If the health ministry upholds it, the companies will have to stop doing it or be fined.
I think that fast-food makes people fat with unnatural fat and sugar, and its calorie count is harmfully high.
Just as a note, I've seen fast-food spelled with or without the dash. I'm not sure which is 'correct,' but I doubt anyone really minds one way or another.
It is a serious problem, especially for children.
Alternatively: "It is seriously problematic, especially for children." This one is a little more formal, or at least old-fashioned.
They don't know that they should eat healthy food, and easily give in to the temptation of fast-food, sweets, and toys.
If you wanted to, you could combine these two sentences. "It is a serious problem, especially for children because they don't know that they should eat healthy food, and easily give in to the temptation of fast-food, sweets, and toys." However, that is getting close to being a run-on sentence, so I think it actually works better as two.
I agree with movements like what the senator has done.
I have also seen Super Size Me. Pretty freaky stuff.
I was really surprised to see too fat people in that movie.
Recently, I watched a movie about the harmful effects of fast-food, "Super Size Me".
Can I ask you, I thought "Super Size Me" is particular movie so I used "the", but in this situation is "a" correct?
I could understand well, thank you!
