SECTION B Question 2 You are advised to spend about 30 minutes on this question. Read the passage below and answer the question that follows. Good morning, Puan Lee and friends. I am honoured to be invited to give a talk on ‘The Importance of Vitamins’. We need vitamins to stay healthy. There are six different vitamins that our body needs. I will talk about each vitamin and its function. Vitamin A helps to keep our skin, bones, teeth and hair healthy. It is also needed to maintain good vision. You can get Vitamin A from milk, fish, carrots and pumpkins. Besides Vitamin A, we also need Vitamin B. Vitamin B helps turn carbohydrates, proteins and fats into energy. Our heart and nervous system cannot function properly without it. Vitamin B is essential for the formation of red blood cells. Vitamin C is also important. This vitamin keeps our teeth and gums healthy. It helps our bones absorb iron better, heals wounds faster and fight against infection. Another essential vitamin is Vitamin D, which is needed to form strong bones and teeth. It helps the intestines to absorb calcium and phosphorus. Milk, dairy products, liver and fish contain Vitamin D. We also require Vitamins E and K in our diet. Vitamin E helps us to fight against diseases and to maintain healthy re blood cells. Vitamin K helps in clotting of blood when we have a cut or wound. Therefore, to have a healthy body we need all these vitamins. We must ensure that our daily meals consist of these vitamins.
