1. Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer for each question 11 and 15.
Millions more people around the world have high blood pressure. This news came carlier thisweek when the
American Heart Association(AHA) changed the numbers al which high blood pressurestarts.For many
decades, doctors said high blood pressure started at a reading of 140 over 90.The AHAhas changed this and
said the disease should be treatedsooner.It said high blood pressure now starts at areading of 130 over
80.Blood pressure happens when your heart pushes blood around your body too fast.If this pushing is too
strong. It can put stress on your heart and arteries. This can lead to heart attacks andstrokes.Normal blood
pressure is less than 120 over 80.
AHA doctors said health problems can happen at the lower figures of 130 over 80.However,they saidit is
possible for people to deal with this level of blood pressure withoul taking medicine.They said thenew
reading is, “a yellow light that you need to be lowering your blood pressure, mainly with non-
drugapproaches”.People with high blood pressure need to make healthy lifestyle changes.These
includelosing weight,exercising more,eating healthier food.avoiding alcohol and salt,quitting smoking and

2. Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer for each question 16 and 20
Does your mouth water when you think of potato chips, donuts, and pie? Many people prefer "junkfood"
to healthy food because they develop a taste for it. Processed,baked, and fried foods typicallycontain a
high amount of transfats.
 Trans fat raises the bad cholesterol in your body and lowers the good cholesterol that the body needs.Fatty
foods do more than cause obesity.Trans fats build up in the body and block blood flow to the heart.People
whose diet contains a high percentage of transfats are at risk for heart disease and stroke.
Trans fat is a semi-solid type of oil. It is made by adding hydrogen to liquid oil. Food companies
andrestaurants like to use transfat oil because it is inexpensive and makes food like crackers and baked
goodslast longer. It also improves the taste and texture of food. Trans fats became very popular in the
secondhalf of the 20th century. This is around the time when butter got a bad name. People were told to
usemargarine instead because it was made from transfats.
Today doctors know how dangerous these processed foods are. In countries such as the US andCanada
there are new government restrictions on food production. Food and beverage makers have toattach a
Nutrition Fact label to their products. These list daily recommendations and detail all ingredientsincluding
the amount of transfats in a product. New York City banned transfats from all restaurants.Evenfast food
chains such as McDonalds are bg forced to change their recipes. In Europe,foodmanufacturers have
started using a voluntarily labeling system at the consumers' request.
We all need some fat in our diet. There are three different types of fats: saturated fats, transfats,
andunsaturated fats.Doctors recommend that we get most of our fatty calories from unsaturated
fats.Neitherbutter nor margarine fit in this category, though there are some spreads that contain zero
transfats. Labelsare a good way to avoid eating fatty foods that are dangerous for your health. Another
way is to avoideating out. When shopping for groceries, buy the majority of your goods in the fresh food
aisles.
