Zinc (鋅) is one of about 20 elements necessary for good health. It is present in the body in a very small amount, but it makes it possible for important chemical actions to be carried out in cells. Scientists are just beginning to discover how zinc and other elements work.

Researchers first studied zinc as a way to speed recovery. Dr. Waltor Powys, formerly with the United States Air Force, noted that the laboratory animals recovered faster when some matters were added to their food. One of these matters was zinc. Dr. Powys later tested the zinc treatment on an American airman recovering from medical operations. The airman who received zinc sulphate (硫酸鹽) recovered in half of the usual time. Other doctors studied persons who had a number of strange disorders. The doctors learned that all of these problems were caused by lack of zinc in the body. They treated these disorders successfully by giving the patients zinc sulphate.

The amount of zinc in the body can be found by examining blood and hair. A lack of this important element is not uncommon among people in both industrial and developing countries. Zinc is found in most high protein foods, such as meat milk, fish and eggs. It is also found in whole grains. But many people do not eat enough of these foods. Food markets should add these elements so that more people could get needed amount of these necessary matters.

Which of the following statements is true?

A. Scientists found how zinc works a long time ago.

B. People need a large amount of zinc to be healthy.

C. Zinc allows important chemical actions to take place in cells.

D. Zinc must be used in the course of medical operation.

One of the results from the study of zinc is that _________.

A. there's only a little zinc in the human body

B. food rich in protein contains more zinc

C. some physical problems are caused by lack of zinc

D. any patient who receives zinc sulphate gets well immediately

A. A New Discovery               B. Zinc and Health

C. How Zinc Works              D. Add Zinc to Your Food

The meal you eat after exercising matters! No matter what time of day you exercise, the key is to follow the exercise up with meals that supply enough nutrition. For the best results, eat within thirty to sixty minutes after exercising, when the muscles are at the best time to take in nutrients.

     Here are some ideas for meals after exercising.

Home-made sports-recovery drink

     Mix banana, milk, and yogurt to make a fresh and satisfying sports-recovery drink. Dairy products like milk and yogurt work double duty, providing both protein and carbohydrates (碳水化合物). A cup of coffee, on the other hand, is a poor choice.

Protein-packed sandwich

     You can't go wrong with a sandwich after exercising-it's got everything in a hand-held package. Sandwiches provide the salt you need to replace what you have lost by sweating, while the tomatoes in them supply plenty of Vitamin C. Try using whole-wheat bread to give yourself more fiber. The cheese and fresh vegetables in sandwiches are also great for helping tired muscles recover.

Power breakfast

     An egg sandwich is a perfect post-exercise breakfast. There's protein in both the yolk (蛋黃) and the white of the egg. This recipe increases your protein intake while keeping calories and fat under control. Eggs also contain zinc (鋅), which helps protect against disease.

Plant-based protein

     Beans are an amazing source of plant-based protein and carbohydrates. Make a large bowl of bean salad in the beginning of a week, and you'll have a great post-exercise meal that's ready whenever you need it

Why does the author advise eating a protein-packed sandwich after exercising?

     A. It helps increase the protein in your body.

 B. It has plenty of fat and calories

     C. The things in it help you recover.

     D. It is an amazing source of carbohydrates.

What should you do when your muscles feel tired?

A. Eat cheese and fresh vegetables.

     B. Drink as much milk and yogurt as possible.

     C. Eat whole-wheat bread instead of a sandwich.

     D. Eat and drink as soon as possible.

Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

     A. It's the best time for muscles to take in nutrients within 30 to 60 minutes after exercising.

     B. It's best for you to have an egg sandwich after exercising.

     C. A cup of coffee will help you recover after exercising.

     D. Bean salad is another great meal for post-exercising.

What is the passage mainly about?

     A. The healthy eating habits of athletes.     B. The best time for exercising.

     C. How to warm up before exercising.      D. What to eat after exercising.
