VII.Read the passage and choose the correct answer for each
question that follows .
The heart
Day after day , the heart pumps blod throughout your body .Its beat goes on
and on with very little help from you .The heart beats , or pumps about 5.7 litres of blood
throughout the body in about sixty seconds .It just one year , the haert pumps enough
blood to fill from 97 to 200 tank cars with 8,ooo gallons each!
The heart is really two pumps in one . Each side of the heart performs a different
pumping job . The right side takes blood from the body and pump it into the lungs .The left
side collects blood from the lungs then pumps it into the body .It is the job of the veins in
the body to bring the blood bach to the heart .Arteries, on the other hand , carry blood
from the heart to all parts of the body.
Your heart does enough work in just one hour to lift a weight of one and a haft
tons more than one foot off the ground ; yet it is only the size of your lift.In growups , the
heart is about 5 inches long , three and a haft inches wide , and two and a haft thick.
A man’heart weighs about eleven ounces.A woman’heart weighs about 9 ounces. The heart
lies near the middle of the chest towards the front .The lower end of the heart is the part
that you feel beating .The ventricle is either of the two lower space in the heart that pump
blood around the body , and the auricle is either of the two upper space in the heart used
to pump blood .
A person’s heart normally beats about 70 to 80 times a minute , but the rate changes in
order to keep the body as much oxygen as it needs .For example, your heart beats much
faster when you exercise .It is rushing more oxygen to your body by speading up the flowof
blood .
There are many other examples of how the heart changes it rate of beating to meet
certain need. When you become angry , afraid or excited , your heart beats harder and
faster . This is one of the reasons why being angry or upset a lot is unhealthy ; it is just
too hard on your heart .However , it seems that many people in the United States do not
know how important it is to live calm and peaceful lives because 1,600,000 people die
from heart deseases every year.
