I am afraid my daughter became a chocoholic. There was a time when she eat just a bar of chocolate a day. But now she is wanting only chocolate. Chocolate sweets, chocolate ice-cream or milk, chocolate muffins: these is her favourite foods. She constantly eat sweets. I already notice some changes in her figure.

I am thinking he is the best doctor I ever met.  So Henry asked us to came to his office. So at this time tomorrow we’ll visit him and discuss this problem.

I am afraid my daughter has become a chocoholic. There was a time when she ate just a bar of chocolate a day. But now she wants only chocolate. Chocolate sweets, chocolate ice-cream or milk, chocolate muffins: these are her favourite foods. She is constantly eating sweets. I have already noticed some changes in her figure. (Боюсь, что моя дочь стала шоколадоголиком. Было время, когда она съедала лишь плитку шоколада в день. Но сейчас ей нужен только шоколад. Шоколадные конфеты, шоколадное мороженое или молоко, шоколадные маффины: это ее любимая еда. Она постоянно ест конфеты. Я уже заметила изменения в ее фигуре.)

When I came home last night she was eating chocolate doughnuts. In fact she had eaten five of them before I came. And that was the first time she had eaten so much. For that reason I decided to phone my friend Henry. He has worked as a doctor for 10 years and I often ask him to give a good advice. I think he is the best doctor I have ever met.  So Henry asked us to come to his office. And at this time tomorrow we’ll be visiting him and discussing this problem. (Когда я пришла домой вчера вечером, она ела шоколадные пончики. Фактически она съела пять штук до моего прихода. И это было впервые, когда она съела так много. По этой причине я решала позвонить моему другу Генри. Он работает врачом 10 лет, и я часто обращаюсь к нему за хорошим советом. Думаю, он лучший врач, которого я встречала когда-либо. Так, Генри попросил нас прийти в его офис. И в это время завтра мы будем у  него на приеме обсуждать эту проблему.)

I’m sure that by next spring my daughter will have given up her bad habit, and in a couple of months’ time she will be eating healthy food only. But, please, do not tell it to anyone. You are the only person who knows it. (Уверена, что к следующей весне моя дочь бросит свою плохую привычку, а через пару месяцев она будет есть лишь здоровую еду. Но, пожалуйста, не говори об этом никому. Ты – единственный человек, который знает об этом.)
