Worksheet 1. Reading: How to Be Healthy
Read the introduction to a booklet on good health from the U.S. government. Then
see the notes and answer the questions on the next page.
How to Be Healthy
Good health is a wonderful thing, but you can’t take it for granted! For good health, you should eat nutritious foods, and you should be
physically active each day. You have to be aware of the things that
you choose to eat, and you have to make time in your daily schedule
for physical activity.
It’s important to choose a variety of fruits and vegetables. You should
also eat a variety of grains daily, especially whole grains, like whole wheat bread and brown rice. You should include fat-free or low-fat
milk and dairy products. For protein, you should eat lean meats,
poultry, fish, beans, eggs, and nuts.
You should not have foods with a lot of cholesterol, salt (sodium), or
added sugar. You should not eat junk food like
cheeseburgers, French-fried potatoes, candy, and soft
drinks, even though they may taste very good!
In addition to proper nutrition, you must
be physically active. Try to get at least 30 minutes of exercise most days of the
week. If you are overweight, you’d better
increase the amount of time that you spend in physical
activity. You don’t have to do boring exercises -- you can participate in a team sport or do individual
activities you enjoy, like swimming, tennis, or hiking.
Eating right and being physically active aren't just a "diet" or a "program"—they are keys to a healthy lifestyle. With healthful habits,
you may reduce your risk of many chronic diseases such as heart
disease and diabetes, and you may very well increase your chances for
a longer life. You might even live to be more than 100 years old!
cholesterol = a chemical substance in blood. Too much may cause heart disease.
chronic = a chronic disease or illness that continues for a long time and cannot be
cured
grains = the seeds of crops such as corn, wheat, or rice
poultry = chickens, ducks, etc. that are kept on farms to produce eggs and meat
protein = a natural substance in meat, fish, nuts, etc. that makes you strong
take it for granted = to believe that something good will always be there
