So my students are writing an argumentative essay in their Advanced Reading and Writing class. Among the topics I listed for them to choose from, there is one, against which I would be naturally very biased :) Vegetarianism - Voila! Interestingly enough, a lot of them ended up choosing this particular topic, BUT not all of them accepted the "pro" side - BAD MOVE :))) hahahah but I will keep it professional ;)
Anyways, I was reading their outlines today, and came across a number of hilarious word choices and collocations. As it turns out, "vegetarians, vegetables, vegetarian diet, vegetarian food" are all one and the same for my students, AND "it" is edible too! So here we go:
"The vegetarian can make the brain more intelligent."
[The Power of Vegetarians! We are magicians and mind manipulators :)]
"As a result, they choose to be vegetarians and eat vegetarians for reasons."
[But that makes sense! If a person is a vegetarian, then there's nothing but plants in his system; so, if you eat a vegetarian, you eat processed veggies, right? ;)]
"Vegetarians is good for environment."
[Exactly! We do not emit fumes! or do we?... ;)]
