Learning means acquiring knowledge or developing the ability to perform new behaviors. It is common to think of
learning as something that takes place in school, but much of human learning occurs outside the classroom, and people
continue to learn throughout their lives.

They learn how to interact with their parents, siblings, friends, and other people important to their world. When they enter
school, children learn basic academic subjects such as reading, writing, and mathematics. They also continue to learn a
great deal outside the classroom. They learn which behaviors are likely to be rewarded and which are likely to be
punished. They learn social skills for interacting with other children. After they finish school, people must learn to adapt
to the many major changes that affect their lives, such as getting married, raising children, and finding and keeping a job.

Because learning continues throughout our lives and affects almost everything we do, the study of learning is
important in many different fields. Teachers need to understand the best ways to educate children. Psychologists, social
workers, criminologists, and other human-service workers need to understand how certain experiences change people’s
behaviors. Employers, politicians, and advertisers make use of the principles of learning to influence the behavior of
workers, voters, and consumers.

Learning is closely related to memory, which is the storage of information in the brain. Psychologists who study
memory are interested in how the brain stores knowledge, where this storage takes place, and how the brain later
<b>retrieves knowledge when we need it. In contrast, psychologists who study learning are more interested in behavior and </b>
how behavior changes as a result of a person’s experiences.

There are many forms of learning, ranging from simple to complex. Simple forms of learning involve a single

<i>stimulus. A stimulus is anything perceptible to the senses, such as a sight, sound, smell, touch, or taste. In a form of </i>
learning known as classical conditioning, people learn to associate two stimuli that occur in sequence, such as lightning
followed by thunder. In operant conditioning, people learn by forming an association between a behavior and its
consequences (reward or punishment). People and animals can also learn by observation - that is, by watching others
perform behaviors. More complex forms of learning include learning languages, concepts, and motor skills.

<i><b>Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to </b></i>
<i><b>each of the questions. </b></i>

Human Nutrition is the study of how food affects the health and survival of the human body. Human beings require
food to grow, reproduce, and maintain good health. Without food, our bodies could not stay warm, build or repair tissue,
or maintain the heartbeat. Eating the right foods can help us avoid certain diseases or recover faster when illness occurs.
These and other important functions are fueled by chemical substances in our food called nutrients. Nutrients are
classified as carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, minerals, and water.

acids liquefy food and muscle contractions push it along the digestive tract. Nutrients are absorbed from the inside of the
small intestine into the bloodstream and carried to the sites in the body where they are needed. At these sites, several
chemical reactions occur, which ensures the growth and function of body tissues. The parts of foods that are not absorbed
continue to move down the intestinal tract and are eliminated from the body as feces.

<b>Once digested, carbohydrates, proteins, and fats provide the body with the energy it needs to maintain its many </b>
functions. Scientists measure this energy in kilocalories, the amount of energy needed to raise one kilogram of water one
degree Celsius. In nutrition discussions, scientists use the term calorie instead of kilocalorie as the standard unit of
measure in nutrition.

Nutrients are classified as essential or nonessential. Nonessential nutrients are manufactured in the body and do not
need to be obtained from food. Examples include cholesterol, a fatlike substance present in all animal cells. Essential
nutrients must be obtained from food sources, because the body either does not produce them or produces them in
amounts too small to maintain growth and health. Essential nutrients include water, carbohydrates, proteins, fats,
vitamins, and minerals.

An individual needs varying amounts of each essential nutrient, depending upon such factors as gender and age.
Specific health conditions, such as pregnancy, breast-feeding, illness, or drug use, make unusual demands on the body
<b>and increase its need for nutrients. Dietary guidelines, which take many of these factors into account, provide general </b>
guidance in meeting daily nutritional needs.
