By almost any measure, the answer is yes, but dont let it be all you do. Research shows regular yoga practice lowers your risk for heart disease and tension. Yoga may also
11、lessen symptoms of depression, headaches, diabetes, some forms of cancer and pain-related diseases. Yoga also seems to prevent weight gain. One 4-year study from Seattles Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center found middle-aged adults who practiced yoga at least once a week gained 3 fewer pounds tha
12、n those who stuck with other forms of exercise. The same study found overweight adults who practice yoga lost 5 pounds, while a non-yoga group gained 13 pounds. How can a little bending and stretching do all that? Unlike exercises like running or lifting weights, “yoga puts you in a parasympathetic(
13、副交感神经系统的) state, so your heart rate goes down and blood pressure goes down,” says Dr. Tiffany Field, director of the Touch Research Institute at the University of Miami School of Medicine. Yoga is tied to a healthier heart, as well as its ability to reduce your stress, improve your mood, and help yo
14、u sleep more soundly. When you consider the extra health benefits linked to each of those brain and body benefits-lower pain, lower body weight, lower disease risk-you could make an argument that few activities are as good for you as yoga. One thing yoga doesnt do, though, is burn loads of calories.
15、 Even hot forms of yoga like Bikram result in the spending of modest energyroughly the number of calories youd burn during a brisk walk. While more and more research suggests calories shouldnt be your only focus when it comes to diet and exercise, theres no question that running, swimming, lifting w
16、eights and other more vigorous forms of exercise are great for your brain and body. Yoga is unquestionably good for you, Field says, but it should be done along with traditional forms of physical activity-not in place of them. 1For those who practise it, what can yoga not do? AConsume a lot of calor
17、ies BReduce stress CLessen symptoms of depression DHelp sleep better 2What can we infer from paragraph 5? APeople tend to pay too much attention to calories when exercising or on a diet. BPeople shouldnt go on a diet if they do regular yoga practice. CVigorous exercises are good for peoples brain an
18、d body. DYoga is a better form of exercise than those vigorous ones. 3What will Field probably advise people to do? APractise yoga daily to stay healthy. BGive up other forms of exercise and practise yoga alone. CDo other forms of exercise in addition to practising yoga. DConsult an expert before pr
19、actising yoga. 4What is Fields attitude towards yoga? ARecommending BDoubtful CIndifferent DObjective B Many teens in high school want to try out for sports. A lot of them try out because they think it will make them popular or get them more dates. While this may seem like a silly reason, there are
20、lots of other benefits to sports that your children may fail to notice. With TV, movies, computers and video games becoming more and more popular, it has become so much easier for teens to be by themselves rather than going out with friends. Kids used to go hang out at the mall or drive around town;
21、 now they just sit at home. Getting your teens into a sport gives them a chance to go out and spend time with other people socially. While they may not find a new best friend, they will learn how to communicate with one another and work as a team and theyll find something useful later in life. More
22、and more kids are becoming overweight. Joining a team sport will help teens get out and get some exercise without feeling pressured to lose weight or get in shape. Whats more, if your teens see that their physical condition is causing them to under-perform, they may be encouraged to do other activit
23、ies to get healthy. By the time your children reach their teenager year, part of good parenting will be providing them with direction and encouragement and continuing to help them develop a healthy style of living. These days, its becoming harder to show your teenagers that you love and support them
24、. A great way to do this is by showing up to their game, helping them practice, and helping with team fundraisers. These are also great ways to spend time with your kids and talk to them. You may think “but my teen isnt good enough to make their school team”. There are plenty of other places besides
