A
I am Lily. Today is our family day and we have a family dinner this evening. My mother Jane is the cook today and she asks us about what we want to have.
Lily’s grandparents Jack and Sarah: We’d like to have some purple sweet potatoes and black beans from our farm. We are both 64 years old now. The food in those colours can help us keep young.
Lily’s brother Sam: Can I have some green vegetables like spinach(菠菜) and broccoli? My dream is to become a soccer player one day. Green food is good for my bones(骨头), so I want to eat green vegetables every day.
Lily’s father Fred: I like some orange or yellow food such as carrots, oranges and bananas. As an office worker, I have to sit in front of the computer for a long time every day. Orange or yellow vegetables and fruit are good for my eyes.
Lily: For me, I’d like some cherries(樱桃) and strawberries. Our teacher says that red food can help remember things better. You know, I am not good at History. I want to eat more red food to remember everything.
In the evening, my mother prepares a rich dinner for us. Different colours of the food are just like a rainbow on the table. We have a good time together.
