听力每日练习 listen 4627 Hypertension
1--I can't believe my eyes，Bill. Are you having a salad for lunch? No hamburger?
2--Get used to it，Mary. I'm off hamburgers for good health. Most fast food is loaded with sodium.
1--I know. But why are you suddenly interested in lessening your salt intake?
2--My doctor says I should cut back on sodium-rich foods to lower my blood pressure.
1--Do you have hypertension? I would have thought you were too young.
2--Actually，my blood pressure isn't that high yet，but they say it increases with age.
1--Well, I'm glad you're starting to pay more attention to your diet.
2--I want to lower my risk of heart attack and stroke，too.
1--So do I. That's why I've been trying to lower my cholesterol level.
2--I've noticed you've been munching away on lots of fruits and vegetables reGently.
1--That's right. I could stand to lose a few pounds，too.

1--比尔，我真不敢相信我的眼睛。你午餐只吃沙拉?不吃汉堡?
2--玛丽，你得开始习惯。我已经决定为了健康永远不吃汉堡了。大部分快餐，钠的含量都很高。
1--这我知道。但你为什么突然想减少盐的摄取量?
2--医生说我必须少吃含钠高的食物以降低血压。
1--你有高血压?你还这么年轻。
2--事实上我的血压也没有那么高，但据说血压会随年龄的增长而升高。
1--啊，真高兴看到你开始比较注意饮食了。
2--我也想降低得心脏病和中风的危险。
1--我也是，这就是为什么我一直想降低体内胆固醇含量的原因。
2--我注意到你最近大量吃蔬菜水果。
1--没错。这样我还可以减掉几斤肉。
