II. Read the article about three cities and check (ü) the sentences True (T) or False (F). (1m)
Reykjavik in Iceland is one of the world’s healthiest cities. Its people often do activities outside, even though it’s very cold. They go hiking, and swimming outside! Also, Iceland people eat more healthy, fresh fish – it is an island, after all.
Tehran, capital city of Iran, is not a healthy place to live. The air pollution is very bad, so people stay at home on ‘smog holidays’ – days when the air is too bad to work.
Glasgow in Scotland has a problem with obesity. Almost 40% of people in this city are obese. Scotland is cold. Here that means people watch more TV, play more computer games, and do less exercise than in other countries. They also eat a lot of junk food.
