In Reply to: 【Topic13】Some people prefer to eat at food stands or restaurants. Other people prefer to prepare and eat food at home. Which do you prefer? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer. posted by Naluwan on July 20, 19102 at 22:01:10:

In the first paragraph, you should give us some idea of why you like to eat at home. Food is cheaper, the preparation is healthier, and we save time.

Then you use the specific details you already wrote about following these three general statements. Each general statement will get one paragraph followed by specific details.

WHEN YOU WRITE, YOU SHOULD PAY ATTENTION TO PARALLEL CONSTRUCTIONS.
Look at the CAPS below.

Some people like to eat out at restaurants, while others like to prepare food at home.
: However, whether we eat out or eat at home depends on how busy we are. As far as I am
: concerned, I prefer to eat at home.

: To eat out costs us more money THAN EATING AT HOME. Sometimes restaurants provide us with more food than
: we really need. Thus, we waste the food which we PAY FOR. However, if we prepare food
: OURSELVES, this problem will be solved. Because we can know what amount of food we
: want to eat and WE CAN cook the food without wasting any. Besides, in order to ensure our health
: we usually wash the vegetables again and agani and preserve the meats in the refregerator
: properly BEFORE we start to cook them. This procedure will make sure that we can eat
: the vegetables without CHEMICALS on them and the meats wihout BACTERIA inside them.
: Maybe we have to spend extra time doing THIS, but it's WORTHWHILE.

: Eating at home is really a time-saving thing. That is to say that we don't need to spend
: time driving to A restaurant, parking, waiting for SERVICE, and driving home.
: FUrthermore, if we eat at home, we can PREPARE the foods that we really ENJOY.
: We all know that we need various NUTRIENTS to maintain our bodies' health. So, we can buy
: healthy and natural foods to cook when we eat at home.

THIS NEXT PARAGRAPH SLIGHTLY CONTRADICTS YOUR ARGUMENT.
: Eating out at a restaurant or eating at home will be ok for people. Because food can provide
: us with nutrition and engery. Which makes us more healthy and energetic. As for me, I
: prefer to eat at home.
