READ THE TEXT AND CHOOSE THE CORRECT ANSWER FOR EACH GAP
Mark the correct answer.
Many people have tried (putting down/to put down/giving up/to give up) smoking at some point in
their lives, and these days many of us (had attempted/attempt/are attempting/attempted) to stop
taking (the other/another/other/others) substance which is not cigarettes, but which (
might/should/can/is able to) be killing the same number of people (as/so/that/than) tobacco, or even
more. I am talking about sugar.

When I went to the doctor five years ago, he told me that sugar (will/shall/was/would) kill me one day
if I didn’t avoid (to eating/eat/eating/to eat) it. My only chance of long-term survival, said the doctor,
was (putting out/setting down/cutting out/cutting down) all sugar from my diet. Before that day, I (have
never tried/was never trying/had never tried/don’t tried) to quit anything; (even
though/however/although/so), I didn’t think it would be too difficult. “I have achieved difficult things

in my life, much more difficult than that,” I thought. It wasn't true.

I didn't know how difficult it was to stop smoking, or drinking alcohol, because I (wasn’t ever/had never
been/was never) addicted to anything, but when I stopped eating sugar, I realised that sugar is a very
powerful drug. I think it (must be/would have been/had been) easier if I had been addicted to nicotine,
for example, instead of sugar. The first few weeks or months I (used to dream/was dreaming/used to
dreaming) that I was eating chocolate or cakes, and then I woke up in the morning and my body was
crying for sugar.

It's been 3 months now, and I (have been eating/ate/have eaten) very, very little sugar in that time; only
the added sugar that food manufacturers put in some of their processed products, like bread, tinned
tomato, etc. I am very happy because I don't crave sweet things any more, and i feel (much/many/very)
healthier and energetic than a few months ago.
