For questions 61 to 65, match each person (61 to 65 ) to one of the statements ( A to G) given below. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. Abbey You can always recognize dieters from the sour expression on their faces. They spend most of their time turning their noses up at food. They are forever consulting calories charts, gazing at themselves in mirrors, and leaping on to weight-machines in the bathroom. They spend a lifetime fighting a losing battle against spreading hips, protruding tummies and double chins. What a miserable lot dieters are ! Marlin I began making some dietary and lifestyle changes during my second year of college and have been eating this way ever since. I like the way I feel when I don’t eat animal foods so much more than the pleasure I used to get from eating them. I have much more energy; I need less sleep; I feel calmer: I can maintain an ideal body weight without worrying about how much I eat, and I can think more clearly. Maggie During my first year of college, I gained forty pounds when I began throwing the javelin. For the next twenty years, I carried all of this extra weight and kidded myself that I was in good shape since that’s what I weighed in college. Now that I’ve lost all that extra weight, I feel great! People say all the time, “Well, how do you live without eating cheeseburgers or this or that?” and I say , “You just don’t. It’s not even an option. It’s not that hard once you get on it.” |
