reread the question: indicates FURTHER teaching is necessary

I would pick 4 because there is no reason that you should stop eating soups. You should be able to eat almost anything.

I am picking #1,related to cooking in water.

#2 is correct

#3 Is unknown food so I would not eat it.

#4 Is the ice could be unpurified water.

I'll be curious to hear the answer!

#1 - good - cooked veg is what you want to eat, raw veg (and raw fruits without skins, like berries) you should avoid

#2 - good - don't drink tap water

#4 - good - soups might/might not be ok, but avoid iced drinks as the ice is made with tap water

I would select #3 as needing more teaching. Part of the experience of going to new places is trying new foods, and depending on where you go there might not be anything that is familiar. Further teaching would be what kinds of food/drink to avoid - tap water, food that was washed in tap water, raw seafood, etc.
