food pyramid to help you decide how much to eat of each type of food. Complex carbohydrates provide the body with “fuel”. They are found in fruits and vegetables, and in bread, rice, pasta, and other foods made from grains. The body uses protein to build muscles, and it uses fat to absorb the vitamins in food. Protein and fat are found in foods like milk, cheese, meat, fish, and eggs. Too much fat, however, can be harmful. Listening for specific information

Listening for general information

Most of you who just started to work out may not know that having bad eating habits actually makes losing weight much more difficult. Of course, those wanting to build muscles will also find that the development rate of the muscles is too slow. Now, how do we actually know whether we are having bad eating habits or not?

Don’t worry, let us now take a look at several bad eating habits that you may have and definitely should remove.

First, skipping breakfast is not a healthy eating habit. Breakfast is a must! Even if you are having a heavy breakfast, you will have all day to burn the calories. That is why I mentioned “eat like a king”. Skipping breakfast also makes you feel hungrier throughout the rest of the day thus causing you to eat more.

Second, do you have the habit of eating before you sleep? If you have the habit of eating before going to bed, I hope you are not having any plans of losing weight. When you are sleeping, your body does not burn much calories.

Third, eating a lot before exercising is also a bad habit. If you exercise after you have a huge meal, chances are that you might feel sluggish or maybe even a stomachache might occur.

Finally, I always recommend people to have 6 meals. It reduces the chance that you will feel hungry compared to having 3 meals a day where the time between each meal is so long. But do take note that I am not asking you to have 6 HUGE meals a day. Listening for specific information

Whether walking the red carpet, publishing in respected and influential magazines or taking a place in the record books, becoming famous requires patience and strategy.

Find and develop your talent. Famous actors, writers, physicists and explorers all discovered their passion and spent time developing it. Send an audition tape to a reality show. Post your talents online at popular websites like You Tube and Myspace.

Produce groundbreaking advances in your field. Attract attention by exceeding expectations of judges in your area of expertise. If you have natural talent in your chosen field, continue to further your knowledge. Take classes and apply to the most respected and prestigious programs.

Break the record of the person who is the highest record holder in your arena. Conquer something previously thought unconquerable-mountains and long-distance flights. Set a goal and overcome it. Succeed and there’s a good chance to be remembered by historians for years.

Position yourself to be noticed. Move to a big city and gain more opportunities to tap into the national market. Obtain as much information about your industry and apply it.

Work it. Wherever you go, act like someone who should be noticed. Even if you aren’t famous yet, people notice confidence.

Belgian federal prosecutor Frederic Van Leeuw confirmed that two of the attackers were brothers—Khalid and Ibrahim el-Bakraoui.

On Tuesday, Belgian police released a photograph of three men taken from closed-circuit television at the airport. Van Leeuw said Ibrahim and an unidentified man, both wearing dark clothing, died in the airport attacks.

News Item Two

Questions 1 and 2 will be based on the following news item.

In America, one big Easter tradition sends children hunting for hidden Easter eggs. Children carry baskets and collect eggs made of chocolate or candy. They search in the house, their yards or a park.

But one egg hunt on Saturday went wrong in the northeastern State of Connecticut. A candy company hosted an egg hunt for children. The company is called PEZ, and it hid more than 9,000 eggs on its property in Connecticut. But way more people showed up than the candy maker expected.

The egg hunt was set up on three separate fields, and children would be assigned to hunt for eggs based on their ages. But Monday morning, stories reported parents going out of control at the hunt and made PEZ one of the top trending topics on Facebook.

It turns out the parents rushed on to the fields where the eggs were hidden. They said they were trying to get eggs for their children. But instead, they left behind a lot of hurt feelings. Questions:

1. Who hosted the egg hunt on its property in Connecticut? 2. What happened at the egg hunt on Saturday in Connecticut?

News Item Three

Questions 1 to 3 will be based on the following news item.

In Ohio’s presidential primary recently, 17-year-olds were permitted to vote. That’s unusual because the voting age in the United States is 18. But during this election campaign, some people want to change the voting rules.

In Ohio, a judge ruled that 17-year-olds who turn 18 before the November 8 general election can vote.

Several groups, including Generation Citizen, want local governments to permit all 16- and 17-year-olds to vote. Generation Citizen argues that lowering the voting age will increase interest in government and politics.

“A lower voting age would involve parents, teachers, and community members in the process of learning to vote, and ultimately voting themselves, raising adult voter turnout,” said Oliver York, age 16. He is a junior at a San Francisco high school and working with Generation Citizen’s “Vote
