Bonjour Bibaloo,

Cool, je me demandais comment j'allais m'y prendre pour réviser.

Je viens d'imprimer le texte au taff, je le bosse un minimum dans les transports et j'essaie de mettre un post en soirée.

On fait combien de textes par semaine? Il y a beaucoup de personnes qui jouent le jeu?

Coffee no boost in the morning

BBC News, 2007

Tout d'abord, cette première partie ne fait pas partie de mon résumé, c'était histoire de récapituler, de rassembler les idées

University of Bristol researchers : U of B

- caffeine eases withdrawal symptoms which build up overnight

- but does not make people more alert than normal = people no more alert

- studies into the effects of caffeine : all the drink does is counteract the mild caffeine withdrawal symptoms people are experiencing

- those who drink a caffeinated drink are no more alert than those who never consume one

The British Nutrition Foundation conference :

- only people who have avoid coffee for a while will get buzz from caffeine => je n'ai pas compris la phrase et du coup je n'en a pas parlé dans mon résumé...

the British Coffee Association : B C A

- regular drinkers did feel more alert

- because if they miss out, they feel sluggish and unable to get on with their day

Professor Peter Rogers, a biological psychologist :

- we do feel a boost from caffeine in the morning BUT it is probably due to a reversal of the withdrawal symptoms

- alertness you feel is you getting back to normal

- morning boost is what people think is useful about caffeine BUT if that does not happen, maybe it’s not that useful after all

- caffeine have some benefits such as preventing cognitive decline in the elderly

- but it’s best to opt for decaffeinated drinks

- regular consumer are in a cycle of withdrawal reversal

This text is an article untitled Coffee no boost in the morning. It was published on BBC News on the Internet. And, It is dated from 2007. But we don’t know the author.

A study was led to know if coffee or caffeinated drinks have benefits into the alertness of people. So the question is : Does coffee help to boost in the morning ?

In this article, the author presents us different points of view. Indeed, U of B researchers and B C A have opposed ideas. The first think coffee drinkers feel neither more alert than normal, nor more alert than people who never consume caffeinated drinks. On the contrary, the B C A is convinced that regular drinkers feel more alert. The reason evoked is that if they don’t have their morning coffee, they feel sluggish and unable all the day.

In order to come to an agreement, Professor Peter Rogers, a biological psychologist bring his opinion on this phenomenon. He explains why some people feel more alert after having their caffeinated drink.

It’s important to know that regular consumers are in a cycle of withdrawal reversal. The caffeine counteracts the withdrawal symptoms (as it is written line 9)

So, there are people who believe in the useful about caffeine because they feel a boost from coffee. However, Peter Rogers says it’s probably due to a come to normal, in fact it’s a reversal of the withdrawal symptoms.

To sum up, coffee boost in the morning is a false idea, but some caffeine drinkers believe it. On the other side, the Professor points out some caffeine benefits mainly about elderly. For example, it helps to keep alive cognitive abilities.

Moreover, he recommended avoiding caffeinated drinks.

I add we would have to prevent children drinking caffeinated drinks like coffee or coca-cola, red bull but also avoiding tea because there are exciting drinks. This article is interesting to make links between food behaviours’ children and their effects on their health. Furthermore, we can study this phenomenon during a science curse at school. For instance, pupils can make researches on coca-cola because I think many children drink it or at least they know it. So, they can take a coke label on a bottle and watch the composition (they note the percentage of caffeine, sugar). Also, they can compare with red bull which contains more caffeine than coke. Then, on the Internet for example, they can research what it is and the effect on sleep, if it is dangerous and in what proportion… an other day, we can fallow the lesson on fast-food.

The end!

"Mieux vaut tard que jamais" Voici ma production !

I have been given an article which was published on the 6th of March, 2007, on the website of the English Channel BBC News.

The main point of the article is made clear in the title : "Coffee 'no boost in the morning'". The article focuses on the effects of caffeine. The journalist wants to bring to our attention coffee doesn't have such effects as we believe it has.

To begin with, I will briefly summarize the main arguments presented in the text. Then, in a second part, I will share with you my personal feelings and lastly I will conclude with a few remarks on why this text is interesting.

This text was published after a survey had been made about caffeine, by researchers of Bristol's University. It tells us about the effects of caffeine, and more : the non-effects. British Coffee Association said people who drink coffee regularly felt more alert, and some consumers said they did feel asleep if they couldn't drink coffee on morning. But, researchers showed only irregular drinkers could feel that way. Professor Peter Rogers tried to explain it : what people feel when they often drink coffee is when they get back to an above normal level of caffeine. He told us about the benefits of drinking coffee every day : it can prevent cognitive decline. But he nuanced his words by advicing drinking decaffeinated products.

I agree with the main arguments of the article. Coffee can be an addiction so that our body can't feel the effects any more. I don't feel at ease with the benefits of caffeine Professors Rogers explained, because I don't drink coffee at all. So, I hope he's wrong !

This text can be used in a classroom, to inform pupils about the effects of caffeine. Maybe they can make a little survey by asking their parents how they feel after drinking coffee.

To finish up, I would like to say that it's great BBC News gives an article to prevent ways of acting with caffeine. Although I don't think many people will agree with it.

Bravo bravo, j'aime beaucoup ton texte, on te sent à l'aise ! Bonne idée ta description précise de séance. Surtout tu manies à merveille les petits "link words" et ça j'aime beaucoup et les jurés aussi !! Tu n'as qu'à bosser un peu ton intro et ça devrait aller.
