# SPEECH PRACTICE

Talk about the types of coffee you like.

 

Most of the time, I drink Americanos.

Compared to sugary drinks, Americanos allow me to savor the flavor of the coffee beans more.

I think it's better for my health, too.

Coffee drinks with caramel or chocolate flavors contain a lot of sugar.

They are high in calorie, and can raise blood-sugar levels.

I am diabetic, so I have to keep a close eye on my blood sugar and overall health.

The caffeine in coffee has a stimulating effect.

That's why drinking coffee helps to wake you up when you feel drowsy.

Caffeine is also what makes coffee so addictive.

People who are sensitive to caffeine can drink decaf coffee.

 

[해석]

나는 주로 아메리카노를 마신다. 아메리카노는 설탕이 많이 첨가된 커피보다 커피 원두 본연의 맛을 더 느낄 수 있다. 건강에도 더 좋은 것 같다. 캐러멜이나 초콜릿 맛이 나는 커피는 당이 많이 함유되어 있다. 열량이 높고, 혈당 수치를 높일 수 있다. 나는 당뇨가 있어서, 혈당 및 건강 관리에 신경을 써야 한다.
커피에 함유된 카페인 성분은 각성 효과가 있다. 그래서 졸릴 때 커피를 마시면 잠이 깨는 데 도움이 된다. 커피를 계속 마시고 싶게 하는 중독성도 카페인 때문이다. 카페인에 예민한 반응을 보이는 사람들은 디카페인 커피를 마시면 된다.
