Fitness means good health or physical condition, especially as the result of exercise and proper nutrition. One individual may need fewer calories than another, depending on metabolism. Some people might prefer easier exercise to more strenuous exercise. Understanding the needs of your own body is the key. Even though no one can be sure of avoiding chronic diseases, poor diet can definitely ruin good health. With the change of your eating habits, you can reduce the damage or lower the risk of disease. Poor eating habits, such as eating too much junk food, might result in having extra kilograms. Although gaining a few extra kilograms doesn’t always mean you are overweight, it can be hazardous to your health. Unlike the muscle-bound athletes, for most people, the kilograms they are packing are fat, instead of muscle. Extra kilograms can decrease your life expectancy while increasing the risk of health problems, such as high blood pressure, heart enlargement, high blood cholesterol levels, heart attacks, adult-onset diabetes, colon and prostate cancers in men; and breast and uterine cancers in women, and osteoarthritis. For a typical adult who would like to know whether they have excessive body weight, the body mass index (BMI) is the best indicator. The BMI is a common measure expressing the ratio of weight to height. It is a statistical measurement comparing an individual’s weight and height. Because measuring and calculating one’s BMI is an easy task for most people, it is currently the most widely used diagnostic tool to identify weight problems within a population, including underweight, overweight and obesity. With this simple formula — an individual’s body weight divided by the square of his height — he can calculate if he should drop a few kilograms or not. For example, a person weighing 55 kilograms, with a height of 1.65 meters, would have a healthy BMI of 20.2 [55/(1.65)2 =20.2]. For adults, a BMI ranging from 18.5 to 24.9 is considered normal. If your BMI is between 25 and 29.9, you are overweight, while anyone with a BMI of 30 or more is considered obese. Good health is not something you are able to buy at any drugstore. You cannot depend on getting it back just with a quick visit to the doctor when you are sick, either. Instead, you should do exercise on a regular basis and keep a balanced diet if you want to have good physical condition. You are the one who is responsible to make your body last without major problems. Mistreating your system by keeping bad eating habits, neglecting symptoms of illnesses, and ignoring common health rules can indeed counteract the best medical care.

36. What is the main idea of this passage? (A) To have good health, people should keep a balanced diet and exercise regularly. (B) The body mass index is the best indicator of an individual’s physical condition. (C) People can always depend on doctors and medicine to have good health. (D) An individual’s bad eating habits might result in weight problems.

38. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT TRUE? (A) Gaining more weight does not always mean you are overweight, but this might be dangerous to your health. (B) Overweight or obese people are more likely to have health problems like high blood pressure, high blood cholesterol levels, heart attacks, etc. (C) Eating more vitamins, taking more medicine and going to the doctor more often are the best ways to keep one’s health. (D) Weight problems include not only overweight and obesity, but also underweight.

39. According to the passage, which of the following about the BMI is NOT TRUE? (A) As an adult, if you are with a BMI of 28.5, you are considered overweight, and if your BMI is 32, you are obese. (B) By calculating his or her BMI, an adult will know whether he or she has health problems. (C) It is easy to measure and calculate the BMI, so people use it to find out their weight problems. (D) To calculate and measure your BMI, you need to provide both your weight and height.

(C) They can indeed drop a few kilograms. (D) They can decrease the risk of health problems. ▲閱讀下文，回答第 41 – 45 題 Animal testing is regarded as the foundation of scientific research and treatment of disease. It is the use of animals in scientific experimentation. Statistics show that in laboratories run by either industry or government, 50 to 100 million animals are used and killed every year. The public, however, has raised an outcry over these deaths, and started the animal rights movement after they read vivid reports of cruelty. The documents they have compiled include cases in which dogs were exposed to radiation or chemicals until they bled from the mouth or monkeys were isolated in steel tanks for 45 days due to the experimental purposes. Although scientists argue that such incidents are unusual cases, laws have been passed to regulate the animal experimentation. These days, many research centers have formed committees to review all animal experiments proposed by the researchers. Besides, computers are used to replace animals in many experiments. Scientists, however, point out that they need animals to test new drugs and treatments in order to make sure they are safe for human beings. So far, animal experiments have produced vaccines or treatments for diseases like diabetes, and techniques used in heart surgery. To protect the animals from cruel treatment, animal rights activists have vowed to do whatever they can to protect the animals, and their efforts finally have been paid off. The animal rights movement has achieved some successes. Some countries have passed laws to prohibit pounds, places that accept dogs and cats without homes, from selling animals to research laboratories. Scientists claim that the cost of their research will increase, as a result. Although the question about how to strike a balance between humane treatment of living things and advances in disease treatment has not been solved, one thing for sure is that there will be more restrictions placed on the use of animals in scientific experiments.

41. What is the main idea of the passage? (A) Animal experiments play a significant role in scientific research. (B) Fewer kinds of animals should be taken to laboratories. (C) Scientific experiments can be carried out without animals. (D) The public are questioning the use of animals in experiments.

42. According to the passage, animal experiments will probably continue because ____________. (A) there will be enough regulations to protect animals from being abused (B) scientists insist they are harmless, and animals will receive more humane treatment (C) they play a critical role in understanding and curing human diseases (D) the animal rights group that opposes them is not very big or powerful

43. According to the passage, what should the animal rights activists do to make their movement more convincing? (A) They should provide more examples of animals that were mistreated in research laboratories. (B) They should point out all the diseases that have been cured by scientists conducting animal experiments. (C) They should negotiate with the laboratories conducting scientific tests to reduce the animal experiments. (D) They should make efforts to save more stray dogs and cats on the streets, and send them to the pounds.
