III. Read the passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet t indicate the correct

It was once believed that being overweight was healthy, but nowadays few people subscribe
to this viewpoint. While many people are fighting the battle to reduce weight, studies are being
conducted concerning the appetite and how it is controlled by both emotional and biochemical
factors. Some of the conclusions of these studies may give insights into how to deal with weight

problems. For example, when several hundred people were asked about their eating habits in times
of stress, 44 percent said they reacted to stressful situations by eating. Further investigations with
both humans and animals indicated that it is not food which release tension but rather the act of
chewing.

A test in which subjects were blindfolded showed that obese people have a keener sense of
taste and crave more flavorful food than non- obese people. When deprived of the variety and
intensity of taste, obese people are not satisfied and consequently eat more to fulfill this need. Blood
samples taken from people after they were shown a picture of food revealed that overweight people
reacted with an increase in blood insulin, a chemical associated with appetite. This did not happen
to average-weight people.

In another experiment, results showed that certain people have a specific, biologically
induced hunger for carbohydrates subsides. Eating carbohydrates raises the level of serotonin, a
neurotransmitter in the brain. Enough serotonin produces a sense of satiation, and hunger for
carbohydrates subsides.

Exercise has been recommended as an important part of a weight-loss program. However, it
has been found that mild exercise, such as using stairs instead of the elevator, is better in the long
run than taking on a strenuous program, such as jogging, which many people find difficult to
continue over a long periods of time and which also increases appetite.
