VI. ENGLISH III Directions for questions 1 to 10: Read the paragraph carefully and answer the questions below it. Our body is a wondrous mechanism and when subjected to unusual stress over a period of time, it adapts itself to deal more effectively with that stress. Therefore, when you exert your muscles against resistance, they are forced to adapt and deal with this extraordinary work load. This is the principle of weight training. Strands of muscle fibres become thicker and stronger in response to the demands placed on them. One of the great merits of weight training is the strength of your heart. During weight training, your heart is forced to beat faster and stronger in order to pump sufficient blood to the muscles being worked. In time, your heart, like your body, will adapt to this extra-workload by becoming stronger and more efficient. Since your body needs a given amount of blood to perform its daily tasks your heart will now need fewer beats to pump the same quantity of blood. Sounds good? There's more. Your entire circulatory system is given a thorough workout every time you exercise, which increases its overall efficiency. Even the neural paths from your brain's command centres to each individual muscle become more effective, enabling easier recruitment of muscle fibres for carrying out physical tasks. In essence, your body becomes a well-oiled and finely-tuned piece of machinery, whirring along without any breakdown. In today's stress filled world, you need all help you can get. 1. What is the principle training of weight lifting? 1] Adapting the body to muscle force 3] Disposing extra-workload What affects the nature of muscle fibres? 1] Intensity of workload 3] Nutrition

2] Adapting muscles to force implied on them 4] Mechanised response to external conditions

2.

2] Alimentary system 4] Stress imposed on them

3.

How does the heart become stronger owing to physical exercise? 1] Thorough acclimatisation 2] Naturalisation 3] Adapting to excessive workload 4] By accelerating the circulation of blood How much blood does the heart pump at the same number of heartbeats, when exposed to excessive stress? 1] Same quantity 2] Less than before 3] More than normal 4] None of these What happens to our body due to physical exercise? 1] More efficient 3] Efficiency of the body remains the same What does the term 'well-oiled' in the passage denote? 1] Healthy 2] Efficient

4.

5.
