Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the answer
to each of the questions.
Stress can have varying effects on eating problems and weight. Often stress is related to weight gain and
obesity. Many people develop cravings for salt, fat and sugar to counteract tension and, thus, gain weight.
Weight gain can occur even with a healthy diet in some people exposed to stress. In a 2000 study, lean
women who gained weight in response to stress tended to be less able to adapt to and manage stressful
conditions. The release of cortisol, a major stress hormone, appears to promote abdominal fat and may be
the primary connection between stress and weight gain in such people.
In contrast, some people suffer a loss of appetite and consequently lose weight. In rare cases, stress may
trigger hyperactivity of the thyroid gland, stimulating appetite but causing the body to burn up calories at a
faster than normal rate. Chronically elevated levels of stress chemicals have been observed in patients with
anorexia and bulimia. Some studies, however, have not found any strong link between stress and eating
disorders. These also show no association between stress and undereating or fasting.
Question 31: Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. Weight Gain and Obesity B. Weight Loss and Appetite Loss
C. Stress, Eating Problems and Weight D. A Healthy Diet and Weight Gain
Question 32: Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. People under stress may experience weight gain, regardless of their diet.
B. Lean women who gained weight due to stress struggled to adapt themselves.
C. Cravings for salt, fat, and sugar are common in people exposed to stress.
D. There has been a clear connection between stress and fasting or undereating.

A. they only consume low-carb foods
B. their body burns up calories too fast
C. their body releases too much cortisol
D. they suffer some eating disorders
