A new study shows women need 60 minutes to exercise a day to stop weight increasing if they have a normal diet.

   The findings suggest women need more exercise than the current federal guidelines (聯(lián)邦指南) of 150 minutes a week,or 30 minutes five days a week.

   The study is being published in the March 24/31 edition of the Journal of the American Medical Association.

   “I don't want people to throw up their hands and say,I can't do it ,” said Dr Min Lee,the study's lead researcher.

   Women at a normal weight who have a normal diet can beat middle-age weight gain by working out intensely (高強(qiáng)度) for 30 minutes a day,whether by running,cycling,swimming laps or working out at a gym. Weight gain can also be prevented with 60 minutes of moderate activity,such as walking,a leisurely bike ride or playing catch.

   Overall,women gained an average of 5. 7 pounds in the study. However,those who were of normal weight,kept their weight if they exercised for 60 minutes a day. Women who exercised less generally gained weight. Dr Lee said for overweight women,60 minutes of exercise a day wasn’t enough to keep weight,suggesting cutting the calories (熱量) .

   Some of the factors which make our lifestyle unhealthy are as follows:

   Too much junk food is being put into our hands especially in children's hands. Junk food which is full of fat increases blood cholesterol(膽固醇) levels and increases the risk of heart disease and some cancers.

   Life is full of stress. Modern life is full of trouble,deadlines. Work can be stressful,whether in an office,a factory,or a school. For many people,stress is everywhere and it has become a way of life.

   Western culture is generally dependent on medical drugs and people don't know that medical drugs’ side effects are dangerous to their health. In the world today,many people seem to think that they just want medicines and drugs to solve their health problems;they believe they can always ask medicine for help. But what they do not know is that these medications may have potential adverse reactions (潛在的不良反應(yīng)) . Some drugs are harmful to your liver and do crazy things to your health;perhaps you have those little poisons without considering what they are doing to your body.

   Exposure to pollution and toxic wastes such as poisonous agents from the household items does harm to your health. Our bodies are absorbing (吸收) the harmful chemicals surrounding the environment today. It is thus imperative that we clean up our living environment as much as possible. Those regular detergents,soaps,shampoos,toothpastes and perfumes that we use today contain many chemicals which are toxic to our bodies,some even carcinogenic.

   Less exercise. Exercise always improves our health level. There is no doubt about it. But we don’t exercise enough. We are too busy.

1. In the world today,many people depend on medical drugs,why?

2. What's the Chinese meaning of the underlined word household in the fifth passage?

3. How many factors make our lifestyle unhealthy?

4. What is the article about?

   There is a fish called the black spot angelfish,which can change from female (雌性) to male (雄性) . No,it cannot do it by simply wishing to become male. The change happens for a specific reason.
