SAMPLE TEST FOR THE FINAL TEST

Time: 45 minutes

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct option that best fits each of the numbered blanks from 10 to 16.
Obesity is connected to a shorter lifespan and with an increased risk of many chronic diseases.
The good news is that just being somewhat overweight does not reduce your longevity, and for those
over the age of 65, it is actually better to be on the high side of normal than the low side.
A 2018 study (part of the Framingham heart study) looked at body mass index and mortality
over a period of 24 years. Obese people who had a body mass index of 30 to 35 had a 27% increase in
mortality, and those who had a body mass index of 35 to 40 had a 93% increase.
What weight is ideal? Among those who were overweight but not obese (had a body mass
index between 25 and 30), mortality was only increased among those who also smoked. People with a
body mass index on the high side of normal (e.g. 24) had the lowest mortality.
There isn't any real magic when it comes to maintaining (or reaching) a normal body mass
index. Eating a healthy diet, not too much and avoiding empty calorie, and exercising daily, even if it's
fun activities such as gardening, are the true "secret."
