We all know what foods we should and shouldn't be eating — we're fully aware that we need to change the pizza for beans to get us feeling fit in 2016. But are you really aware of how much you should be eating? And we're not just talking about sticking to regular mealtimes...What you also need to know about is portion(分量）sizes, which can have a huge influence on your health. The point is，whatever you’re eating, it's important to keep control over how much you're consuming. A recent study showed that avoiding large portions completely reduces a UK adult's daily energy intake by 12 — 16%.The researchers boldly stated that: “Reducing the size of large food portions, packaging and tableware(餐具）means a lot to preventing obesity(overweight).”
And over-sized portions are increasingly becoming a problem. The average serving for a meal or snack is now at least 50% larger than 20 years ago. Thus it's growing increasingly difficult to control a healthy meal size.
Even if you're not trying to lose weight, keeping an eye on your portion sizes is still important. Obviously, eating four apples in a row instead of four biscuits is going to be better for you, but even when you're eating the healthiest foods, it is still a good idea to control portion sizes. It is good practice, and helps you get into the habit of not
overeating. Often the most common mistake people make is thinking that they can eat as much as they want of healthy foods — however if you're overeating, even if it's healthy foods, you may begin to gain weight.
When it comes to reducing how much you eat, ifs better to gradually decrease your portion sizes. If you suddenly cut your lunch size by half, you're going to end up feeling hungry all the time and you will probably eat biscuits to your heart's content in a mid-afternoon. Your stomach has the ability to shrink, so if you slowly reduce your meal sizes over time, you'll get used to feeling full from smaller portion, instead of feeling hungry.
It’s also definitely worth buying some quality kitchen weighing scales(秤），and learning how to only cook exactly as much food as you need. Buy smaller plates, bowls and lunchboxes. Over-sized plates only encourage us to fill them more, and thus
overeat. Make sure you know exactly how much you’re eating, and that ifs in line with suggested servings. When the pains are kicking in, drink a glass of water before you serve or order food to ensure you don't overdo it because your eyes are bigger than your belly. Again, don’t be fooled by bigger-size-better-value offers when eating out and shopping in the supermarket.
41 .The passage is mainly about the ____ of food we eat. A. safety B. quality C. source D. amount 42. It’s wrong to believe ____ .
A. pizza is not a kind of healthy food
B. healthy food won’t contribute to overweight C. sticking to regular mealtimes matters D. portion size can affect your physical fitness 43. What does “it”in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Controlling weight. B. Avoiding junk food. C. Eating fruits. D. Limiting portion sizes.
44.What does the writer think of “bigger-size better-value offers”？ A. Foolish. B. Beneficial. C. Misleading. D. Rewarding. 45. Readers are advised to ____ .
A. develop the habit of eating less B. increase portion size gradually C. purchase good quality tableware D. avoid eating more than needed B
Over your lifetime, how much do you expect that your happiness will increase? One study tracked some individuals over a period of 20 years. Their levels of happiness increase by 20, 30, even 50% over the course of those 20 years. Here are things you can do to be like them: Exercise Regular exercise increases happiness just as much as doubling one's income would. Exercise is at the top of this list, and for a reason — it’s a wonder drug. One theory suggests that exercise releases chemicals which reduce stress and improve mental function. If you’ve been inactive, regular exercise will boost your long-term well-being by 10 to 15%. In one study, after eight weeks of exercising for 30 minutes three times a week, folks reported a 12% increase in their well-being. Compare that with a survey of over 100,000 people across the globe, which found that doubling one's income was associated with a 10% increase well-being. Spend More Time Socializing Social activity is a most pleasurable activity available to mankind. Our current state of social： inactivity is unnatural and unhealthy. In one study, those who were the happiest spent 25% less time： alone, and 70% more time talking than less and worse quality sleep also report having lower life satisfaction.： “Getting one extra hour of sleep each night would do more for your daily happiness than getting a; $60,000 raise.” Those who have more and better sleep report higher life satisfaction and happiness.
