Take control of your health by learning these four numbers. They’ll help with everything from losing weight to protecting your heart.
Your daily calorie needs
This is not technically a measurement, but it can have a huge influence on your health. Most women need 2,000 calories a day for good health, and men generally need about 2,550. One way to work out your daily calorie needs is to multiply (乘以) your weight in pounds by 13 to 15, depending on your activity level. But roughly, that’s 300 to 400 calories for breakfast, 500 to 600 for lunch, and 600 to 700 for dinner. Trying to lose weight? Eat about 500 calories less.
Your waist size
Waist size is one of the best ways to measure whether your weight is affecting your heart health. When body fat is packed into your abdomen (腹部),your risk of heart attack increases. For women, health risk begins to rise when your waist is more than 35 inches. For men, risk increases with a measurement when your waist is over 40 inches.
Your blood pressure
Blood pressure rises and falls normally during the day. When it remains high, you have high blood pressure and this carries a higher risk or heart disease and stroke.
A reading of 140/90 mm Hg or more is considered high, and if it’s between 120/80 and 139/89, you may still be at risk and should be taking steps to prevent the development of high blood pressure.
Your morning pulse rate
Your pulse rate is the number of times your heart beats in one minute. A normal resting pulse rate is 60 to 90 beats per minute. People who are fit tend to have lower resting pulse rates because their heart muscles are in good shape. But if you don’t exercise regularly and your heart rate is lower than the normal range, tell your doctor—it could be a sign of heart disease.
71. How can you control daily calories if you decide to lose weight?
A. Eating around 2,000—2, 500 calories
B. Having fewer than 500 calories.
C. Cutting down about 500 calories from amount.
D. Taking in a little fewer calories than the total amount
72. When your waist size becomes larger than the figures given in the text, ________.
A. you are surely unhealthy B. you should try to reduce your waist
C. you should go on a strict diet D. the chance of heart disease rises
73. What should you do if your blood pressure is 128/83 mm Hg?
A. Take measures to stop it going high. B. Leave it as it is as there was no risk.
C. Measure the blood pressure regularly. D. Go to see a doctor for advice.
74. Which of the following is true of a resting pulse rate?
A. The slower it is, the healthier. B. The more exercise you do, the slower it is.
C. Don’t worry if it is lower than normal. D. Regular exercise can make it slower.
75. What might be the best title of this text?
A. Healthy living style
B. The secrets of your body
C. What are your body functions
D. Healthy numbers you need to know

We are all interested in equality,but while some people try to protect the school and examination system in the name of equality,others,still in the name of equality,want only to destroy it.
Any society which is interested in equality of opportunity and standards of achievement must regularly test its pupils.The standards may be changed—no examination is perfect--but to have no external(外部的)tests or examinations would mean the end of equality and of standards.There are groups of people who oppose this view and who do not believe either in external examinations or in any contr schools or on teachers.This would mean that everything would depend on luck every pupll would depend on the efficiency(效率),the ideal and the purpose of teacher.
Without external examinations, employers will 1ook for employees from highly respected schools and from families known to them--a form of favoritism will replace equality.At the moment,the bright child from an ill—respected schoo1 can show certificates(证书)to prove he or she is suitable for a job,while the lack of a certificate shows the unsuitability of a dull child attanding a well—respected schoo1.This defence of excellence and opportunity would disappear if external examinations were taken away,and the bright child from a poor family would be a prisoner of his or her school’s fame(名誉),unable to compete for employment with the child from the favored schoo1.
The opponents(对手)of the examination system suggest that examinations are an evil force because they show differences between pupils.According to these people,there must be no special,different,academic class. They have even suggested that there should be no form of difference in sport or any other area:all jobs or posts should be filled by unsystematic selection.The selection would be made by people who themselves are probably selected by some computer.
The word “favoritism” in paragraph 3 is used to decribe the phenomenon that _____.
A.bright children also need certificates to get satisfying jobs.
B.Pooor children with certificates are favored in job markets.
C.Children attending ordinary schools achieve great success.
D. children from well-respected schools tend to have good jobs.
