=Biography=

Morgan Spurlock was born on November 7th, 1970 at Parkesburg, West. He is married to Alexandra Jamieson, he has a child, Laken James Spurlock. Morgan made a movie about McDonalds, "super size me". The movie is about how fast food, especially McDonalds is not healthy and could cause sickness and heart disease. Morgan ate for 30 days just McDonalds 3 times at day, and walked 3 miles a day, like an average American. Before the experiment Morgan was a healthy man. The idea of doing the movie came after Morgan saw a TV news story about two teenage girls who blamed McDonalds (and the fast food chain) for their medical condition. Morgan's health got worse and made things irreversible. He gained 25 pounds (11 kg), suffered from liver dysfunction, and developed symptoms of depression. It took him fourteen months to return to his normal weight (84 kg). Morgan  made     people aware of the dangers of eating fast food. Thanks to Morgan the fast food chain changed their menu to healthier foods. Appendix

=Questionnaire= The idea for the film came to me when I was at my parents' house, while watching TV I saw a news story about two teenage girls who blamed McDonalds (and the fast food chain) for their medical condition. I wanted to prove to everyone that those two girls are right, and that the fast food chain tells you only the things you want to hear. The aims of the experiment were to pass a clear message: pay attention to what you eat!!! Food is necessary to some extent, most of the people, including myself, have crossed that line and they don't even know that. So if I can make people more aware of the serious dangers, their life can change. __ I had certain rules during the experiment: __ 1. Eat three McDonald's meals a day- every day. (And nothing else) For 30 days. 2. I took the "super-size" option whenever it was offered. 3. I walked about 3 miles a day. (the average American walks 1.5 miles) ** 4.   **** Was there any medical staff that monitored your health while the experiment was on? **  I was monitored by three different medical staffs before, after and during the experiment. ** 5.   **** What was your medical condition while the Experiment ** was in process? **Did you and the medical staff** **expect that condition?** At the beginning I thought it will be a nice experience, and I asked the medical staff who monitored me if my body will cope with it. They told me it won't be the right thing for my body, but they didn’t expect it will be this damaging. During the experiment I felt bad, I had nausea, and I suffered from vomiting, depression, and exhaustion. ** 6. What was your medical condition after the experiment? ** My medical condition got worse and made things irreversible. I gained 25 pounds (11 kg), suffered liver dysfunction, and developed symptoms of depression. It tooked me fourteen months to return to my normal weight (84 kg). ** 8.   **** Did you succeed to pass on your message? ** I think I succeed, because I made people aware to what they eat, where they eat and how it could influence your body. Following my experiment the fast food chain started a new age of health, a "diet" meal, big salads and more… I'm not saying that now everything is healthy and that you must eat there- not at all, I'm saying that now you should be more careful because you know- I don't regret it, because I think someone had to do this, and show the world how we are killing our self. And I'm happy that I had the right to do this.
 * 1. Where did the idea of doing an experiment, (eating McDonalds for 30 days), come from? **
 * 2. What were the aims of the experiment? **
 * 3. What were the rules for you during the process? **
 * 7.  **** How long did it take you to get back to your original weight? **
 * 9.  **** How did your experiment influence the world? **
 * That they tell you what you want to hear!!!  **
 * 10.Do you regret that you did the experiment? **

=Speech= My name is Morgan Spurlok, You have just seen my movie- "Super Size Me". The subject of my movie is about the most serious problem in the twenty first century. A lot of people aren't aware of the dangers of eating fast food all the time. Most people, who eat fast food regularly, don’t even imagine that the health and weight problems they have are caused from their eating habits and that they are doing it with their own hands. First, most of the parents work hard till late, they are tired and don’t have time to make meals, so they prefer to eat out. They usually choose fast food places over fancy restaurants for convenience sake and because they are usually cheaper. In addition, fast food chains make a huge effort to tempt customers especially little children who are most affected by the commercials. The fast food chain exploits this situation by advertising colorfully, adding clowns, they place gifts in the children meals and would do whatever kids like to draw them and their families. The tired adult will follow the child to appease him or her. Not necessarily is it better for the child or cheaper for the adult. Be careful! Don't believe everything you see and hear. Don't allow you children to make serious decisions. Look at what happened to me. Doctors couldn't imagine this would be the results. Carry this message further, it may save lives.
 * Ladies and Gentlemen, **

 * Working on the project improved our searching and writing skills and also improved our English level. **
 * It was hard for us to find exact information because there were too many places who wrote about him and each place there wore different details. **
 * (morgan spurlock's story is still new so the details about him is not based yet.) **
 * We had enough time for writing the project. **
 * The instructions was clear, and the assignments was clear and fair. **
 * We enjoyed working on this project because we think morgan spurlock is a very brave man and it was very interesting to learn more about him and to realize what was his motivation and what was the idea behind it. **

=Rationale= We chose to write about Morgan Spurlock because we think that he made the world aware of the fast food issue, and the fact that it could be one of the main problems of the twenty first century. Morgan proved to the world that eating fast foods without restriction is a sure way to an early death. Morgan acted, where no one else dared, and paid a heavy price to make his message clear. We wanted to Cary on his message.
