The wife wasn’t seriously hurt, just a couple of scratches. Except for what the man said looked like a piece of glass or pipe stuck in the woman's arm.

About the drink, I used to enjoy drinking coffee but now I don’t. And about the food, I used to eat a lot of meat, but now I don’t.
about the food 關於食物
about the drink 關於飲料
英文不用講 about,這是中文「關於…」直接講就可以。
but now I love to eat some drink or food made by milk
but now I love to have drinks or eat food made from milk
比較自然的講法會是 I love dairy products 或是直接講什麼 products,像是 cheese, butter
