some medical advice.
Doctor: Jessica, you have a stomach ache because you
don`t eat healthy food. You must eat more fruit and
vegetables. Also you should drink water. You musn`t
drink cola or other soda because it isn`t good for you . I
will give you some medicine today but you should

We use `should` (should + verb 1) for advice:


A: I have a toothache. My tooth hurts. B: You should go to your dentist.
A: I have an exam tomorrow. B: You should study tonight. You shouldn`t watch TV.

We use `must` for orders or very strong advice:


A: You must not drink alchohol and drive.
B: You mustn`t drink cola. It`s bad for your stomach.

Now using the health problems from page one, write medical advice for each of the problems.

1. You should take some aspirin and you must rest.
