COMPLAIN:
What’s the matter, darling? Nothing. Oh, come on, tell me. Well, look at us. Is there anything wrong with us? In my opinion, there is something wrong. We are becoming vegetables? What? Yes, every night we sit here in front of the TV set, you don’t say anything. I don’t say anything. We never go out. We never visit our friends. Nobody ever visits us. It’s boring. But, darling, we’re always so tired! I know, but why don’t we go out sometimes and eat something at a nice restaurant? There are some very good restaurants near here. But… And a cinema? Why don’t you take me to the cinema? We never see any films! All right, all right, darling. Tonight we’re going to the Cinema and then we are going to a restaurant.

What can I do to lose weight?
Eat less fast foods, fried food, candy, cookies, desserts, cheese, burgers and ice cream. Eat whole grains and fresh vegetables. Walk or do another exercise you like for one-half hour (or more) each day. The best diet/exercise programmes work over a long period of time. Crash diets do not work.
SLEEP WELL
Regular sleeping patterns help reduce stress in your life. If your mind and body are tired, you will probably sleep better, so stay active during the day. Quiet activities in the evening, such as reading or watching television, help to relax your body before bedtime. Don’t take naps during the day or you may not feel sleepy at bedtime. If you miss a few hours of sleep, don’t worry. Try to keep your sleeping hours regular most of the time.

Will you answer the phone, please? (Atende o telefone, por favor.) Would you sign this document, please? (Poderia assinar este documento, por favor?) Would you mind closing the door? (Você se incomodaria em fechar a porta?)
