[00:21.24]Directions:
[00:24.84]Listen to the talk and choose the best answer to each question you hear on the tape.
[00:31.75]People today are running, jumping, jogging, and dancing.
[00:39.38]If they don't have time to go to an exercise class,
[00:44.60]they watch a fitness 1 program on TV and do the exercises at home.
[00:52.31]I have a lazy friend who doesn't think all this exercise is good for people.
[00:58.32]He said, "My doctor told me jogging could add years to my life.
[01:04.87]He must be right because I fell ten years older already."
[01:10.78]Of course the doctor meant that exercising would help myfriend live ten years longer
[01:18.19]and not that it would make him feel older!
[01:22.66]My own doctor says that running is healthy, and I think he's right.
[01:28.52]He says that it's especially good for the heart, the legs, the ankles,
[01:35.69]and the economy.
[01:39.43]"How does it help the economy?" I asked. "When you run," he replied,
[01:45.59]"you're helping 2 to provide jobs for people who make sneakers and running pants,
[01:51.56]and for doctors who treat people for feet and back problems."
[01:57.86]My wife says she doesn't have time to exercise.
[02:03.26]She says the only way she can exercise is to shop faster.
[02:09.56]The faster she walks, the more calories she burns! It makes sense.
[02:16.15]I have a lot of friends who get in their cars and drive three blocks
[02:21.80]to their exercise class.
[02:25.15]If they are interested in exercise, why don't they walk to their exercise class?
[02:31.24]Well, I suppose some exercise is better than none.
[02:37.03]Exercising is very popular.
[02:41.06]It's amazing how much money people are willing to spend just to stay fit.
[02:47.15]It's also amazing how much pain they are willing to tolerate 3 just to stay fit.

[04:27.95]Directions:
[04:31.26]Listen to the passage and answer the following questions.
[04:37.45]The Health Benefits of Chicken Soup
[04:42.82]When colds or flu attack,
[04:46.60]many people treat themselves to the comfort of warm blankets and hot chicken soup.
[04:54.52]Chicken soup has been shown to be more than just a comfort food,however.
[05:01.43]An ancient Greek manuscript 6 written around 200BC
[05:07.84]describes how chicken soup can be used to treat respiratory disorders 7,
[05:14.53]such as cold and flu.
[05:18.92]In the 12th century another Greek scholar wrote
[05:24.32]that chicken soup eases 8 the symptoms people have when they have colds and flu.
[05:31.99]Modern research is showing that there is a basis for this old belief
[05:37.86]that chicken soup can help the common cold or other respiratory problems.
[05:44.77]Here is what scientists have learned 9.
[05:49.02]When a person gets a cold, the cold virus makes itself at home in one's nose,
[05:56.80]sinuses and throat, resulting in swelling 10 in these areas.
[06:03.28]The result is sore throat, headache, congestion 11, coughing, etc.
[06:11.63]One experiment showed that hot chicken soup
[06:17.21]can clear the congestion that comes with a cold.
[06:22.28]This experiment also showed that it wasn't just the steam from soup or tea
[06:29.74]or any other liquid that helps the blockage 12 of sinuses.
[06:34.85]Chicken soup contains compounds 13 that stop the swelling which causes this problem.
[06:43.13]Scientists still don't know why chicken soup works 14, but they are sure that it does.
[06:51.48]They have also found that in order to be effective,
[06:56.30]the soup must be made with vegetables.
[07:01.27]Scientists think that it may be due to the presence 15
[07:06.35]of some healthful elements found in plants.
[07:12.04]Perhaps the best evidence for the effectiveness of chicken soup
[07:17.15]comes from the research of one scientist who found that
[07:22.33]chicken soup is rich in a chemical widely used in cold medicines.
[07:28.63]Thus, when your mother or grandmother
[07:32.99]tells you to eat chicken soup when you have a cold or flu,
[07:38.75]go ahead and enjoy it.
[07:42.42]You will be doing something worthwhile for your body as well as pleasing her.
