Question

Compare your ideas in pairs. Which eight collocations from Exercise 2 did you hear? Can you remember what was said about each of them?

Answer

  1. They’ve found traces of horse meat in food sold as beef products. This has been blamed on organised criminal gangs substituting the cheaper meat at some stage of the food chain. ... the government is promising to carry out a full investigation in an attempt to uncover any illegal activity.
  2. Wouter Gunning had been eating out in many of the city’s most exclusive restaurants ...  Restaurants were so sensitive to the damage that any negative publicity could cause that they would generally waive any charge.
  3. Food production will have to increase by 70% in the next 35 years to prevent widespread hunger. Analysis of data may be the key to developing more efficient farming techniques.
  4. A new report urges shoppers to abandon weekly supermarket visits and instead to shop little and often.  At a time when global food shortages are in the headlines this kind of wastefulness becomes even more appalling.
