FORMAT
Well, before I have to choose among three
options: …………………., let's talk about all of them.
Firstly, …...
Secondly, …...
Finally, …...
For all reasons I put above, I'll choose …... as the
best choice for me.

Situation 10: Your friend is a bit overweight and
he/she is asking you for advice to lose weight.
There are some suggested ways: taking up a yoga
class, going on a diet, and taking weight loss pills.
Which do you think would be the most useful?
Answer:
Well, before I have to choose among three
options: taking up a yoga class, going on a diet,
and taking weight loss pills, let's talk about all of
them.
Firstly, I think taking up a yoga class is the best
choice for the following reasons.

When you do yoga, you can become healthy.
Moreover, you can keep fit and you will have a
beautiful body.
Secondly, going on a diet is suitable for all of
us. We go on a diet every day. However,
sometimes, when we attend a party, then we
have to eat a lot, and when we go away from
home, we have to eat everything we can buy,
then there are no other choices for us.

Finally, although taking weight loss pills is a good
idea, I don't choose it. Simply because pills are
artificial and they have side effect. We have to
spend money buying them and they are not good
for us for a long time.
For all reasons I put above, I'll choose to take up
a yoga class as the best choice.

Good luck!
