F:What do you think about all the different diets that people go on?

M:They need to eat healthy foods，but they also have to increase the amount of physical exercise every day. They don't have to cut out fattening foods altogeth-er，though.

M:他們要吃健康食品，不過(guò)還得同時(shí)增加每天的運(yùn)動(dòng)量。而且，不能一下子就把所有會(huì)使人肥胖的食物都停掉不吃。

F:So you think it's OK for people who are dieting to eat chocolate，don't you?

F:And have you ever tried taking vitamins?

F:那你有沒(méi)有試過(guò)服用維生素片?
