四、阅读理解
These are easy ways to lose weight (体重). And you don’t even have to give up the food you love or join a gym. You just have some lifestyles that slim people have. Have them, and you’ll become slim.
Start with soup
When you have a meal, order a clear soup, and have it before having the main food. In this way, you’ll feel fuller, so you’ll eat less when the main food comes. You can eat vegetable soup and fish soup.
Eat an apple (or more) a day
Apples are high in fibre (纤维) and water, so your stomach will want less. One study shows that people who eat at least two apples a day lose weight.
Stand up and walk around
Every time you use the mobile phone, stand up and walk around. Heavy people sit about two and a half hours more each day than slim people. This habit is very important because standing up and walking around will burn 50 or more calories (卡里). With these skills, you will have a big weight loss.
