Obesity (肥胖症) is becoming a problem in our busy society, and almost one in three American adults is now considered to be obese. Children obesity is alsoat an all-time high.
Obesity means being very overweight. If you are obese, you have too much bodyfat. If you eat more food than your body can use, this will make you put on weight. Food that your body does not need will be stored as fat by your body.
The following are the major factors that increase the risk of obesity.
What you eat plays a major role in weight gain. Eating a lot of fast food such as hamburgers, sweet drinks, ice creams and other sweet food can increase the risk of becoming obese.
If you do not do enough exercise, you will put on weight as the food you eat is not being used to make energy for physical activities.

There are many psychological factors that cause people to eat too much. People who are worried, unhappy or bored will often eat to make themselves feel better. This is known as comfort eating.
Age is another factor, as you tend (趋于) to be less active when you get older. When you get older, you need to eat less, and if you do not eat less, you will put on weight. Obesity can cause many health problems such as heart problems, high blood pressure and many other serious medical conditions.

I dropped out of college after my first year. Three years later, I returned to college after having been stuck in a dead-end job, working at a department store. I saw school as my way out. But I quickly found myself up against the same problems that had caused me to give up before. I was in over my head with college-level algebra (代数) and a heavy workload of reading and writing homework. In addition, I was still unsure of my career (职业) direction。

After about a week in community college, I was feeling the same upset and fear I’d felt a few years earlier. I was ready to drop out again. Then a smartly dressed woman with grey hair walked confidently to the front of my English composition class. “Look at you! You’re here because you want to change your lives for the better. And you’re going to make it!”
Mrs. Peters didn’t know me from any of the other 40 faces in her classroom, yet I felt she was speaking directly to me. She knew exactly what I was feeling and what many of my classmates were probably feeling as well, and she lessened our fears. I came out of that class making up my mind to succeed.
Having trouble keeping up with the workload? Break it down into small manageable pieces, and set up a schedule that works for you, she told us. Professors teaching too fast for you to take notes? Interrupt (打断) them
with a question so you can catch up on your notes before they continue, she advised. If college algebra is too difficult, drop back to introductory college math, she suggested. As for English composition which can be hard and boring, she gave us interesting writing homework.
She never let us lose sight of our dreams. “Go for the best: you’re worth it” she said when we graduated.
I left that community college with high grades and went on to do further studies. Mrs. Peters wouldn’t know that when she gave that talk, she made a huge difference in my life.
12. Why did the author go back to college?
A. He was out of a job.
B. He was dissatisfied with his job.
C. He tried to start his own business.
D. He hoped to learn more about algebra.
13. What troubled the author at college?
A. He did badly in recent exams.
B. He was forced to leave school.
C. He failed to manage his studies.
D. He was beaten by bitter memories.
14. How did Mrs. Peters affect the author?
A. By showing favor to him.
B. By talking with him directly.
C. By setting him extra homework.
D. By givinghim inspiration and skills.
15. What advice did Mrs. Peters offer to her students on their careers?
A. Have fun.
B. Start small.
C. Dream big
D. Think twice
