Staying in good shape is everyone’s concern and I am no exception. I believe that doing yoga will be helpful for my fitness. I have been joining in a yoga class for about 3 years with a close friend. I always try to practice regularly to lead a healthy lifestyle. Yoga involves stretching actions. We think that doing yoga is light and easy but it is more demanding than it appears. Yoga does not make us improve muscles, but the main thing is to be mentally and intellectually healthy. Yoga is a comprehensive method, mobilizing all the parts of the body, both physiologically and psychologically, to make us stable on both sides. Moreover, breathing exercises in yoga are essential and important. Mastering the breath along with the focus of thought is essential, posture is necessary but not the focus. Toughness which I like most is one of the first elements yoga brings to your body. You may be able to touch your toes when you bend your back after a period of practicing. Additionally, doing yoga is supposed to be good for curing headaches and effective for losing weight. It benefits not only physical well-being but also mental health. |
Có một vóc dáng đẹp là điều mọi người quan tâm và tôi cũng không ngoại lệ. Tôi cho rằng tập yoga sẽ có ích cho thể lực của tôi. Tôi đã tham gia một lớp yoga khoảng 3 năm với một người bạn thân. Tôi luôn cố gắng luyện tập thường xuyên để có một lối sống lành mạnh. Yoga liên quan tới các bài tập giãn cơ. Chúng ta nghĩ rằng tập yoga nhẹ nhàng và dễ dàng, nhưng nó khó hơn nhiều so với bề nổi của nó. Yoga không làm chúng ta phát triển cơ bắp mà cái chính là làm tinh thần và trí tuệ khỏe mạnh. Yoga là một phương pháp toàn diện, huy động toàn bộ bộ phận cơ thể, cả về sinh lý và tâm lý, làm cho chúng ta ổn định cả hai mặt. Ngoài ra, bài tập thở trong tập yoga là cần thiết và quan trong. Làm chủ hơi thở đi đôi với tập trung ý nghĩ là chủ yếu, tư thế là cần thiết nhưng không phải là trọng tâm.
Sự dẻo dai, điều mà tôi thích nhất là một trong những yếu tố đầu tiên mà yoga mang lại cho cơ thể của bạn. Ngoài ra, tập yoga được cho là tốt cho việc chữa đau đầu và hiệu quá trong việc giảm cân. Nó không chỉ mang lại lợi ích về thể chất mà còn cả sức khỏe tinh thần. |

Read the following passage and choose the best option to answer each of the following questions.
Smoking is one of the biggest causes of death and illness in the UK. Every year around 78,000 people in the UK die from smoking and many more live with smoking-related illnesses. It increases your risk of developing more than 50 serious health conditions. Some may be fatal, and others can cause irreversible long-term damage to your health. You can become ill if you smoke yourself or if people around you smoke (passive smoking). Smoking causes around 7 out of every 10 cases of lung cancer (70%). It also causes cancer in many other parts of the body, including the throat or voice box (larynx). Moreover, smoking damages your heart and your blood circulation, increasing your risk of developing conditions such as coronary heart disease and heart attack. Breathing in secondhand smoke, also known as passive smoking, increases your risk of getting the same health conditions as smokers. For example, if you have never smoked but you have a spouse who smokes, your risk of developing lung cancer increases by about a quarter. Babies and children are particularly vulnerable to the effects of secondhand smoke. A child who’s exposed to passive smoke is at increased risk of developing chest infection, meningitis, persistent cough and, if they have asthma, their symptoms will get worse.
