               28. An article you read in a magazine or on the internet about healthy living.

                       You should say:
                       what the article was about
                       where you read it (which magazine or website)
                       and explain what you learned/thought from the article



                       SAMPLE ANSWER:
                   -  Recently I came across an interesting article on the internet about the benefits of

                       drinking  warm  water  with  lemon  in  the  morning.    The  website  name  is
                       bodyandsoul.com.au.

                   -  You would normally  think that lemon water is just one kind of drink that helps
                       keep your body hydrated, however, it brings you many other benefits that you
                       can‟t imagine.

                   -  The article says that if you build up a habit of kicking off your day with a glass of
                       warm water with the juice of half a lemon, you will do your body and mind a great

                       favor.
                   -  Firstly, lemon juice is a great source of Vitamin C, thus it helps boost your immune

                       system in fighting off colds and flu. Moreover, lemons are great for combating skin
                       ageing because they are rich in antioxidant properties. Lemon also helps clean our
                       urinary tract and detoxify our livers. The list of benefits doesn‟t end there. The high
                       level of potassium in lemons can help brain and nerve functioning and control
                       blood pressure. Lemon water can also ward off stress and depression, which have
                       been  linked  to  low  levels  of  potassium.  As  a  result,  the  article  suggests  if  you

                       continue drinking warm water with lemon first thing in the morning for at least 21
                       consecutive days, you will notice the difference in your skin and general health
                       immediately.
