Ways to Avoid Sore Muscles
Sore muscles are often the result of pushing your body too hard or too fast. If you’re hoping to head back
to the gym, you’ll want to check out our tips.
1) Load up on antioxidants: Several studies find that taking antioxidants for 2 weeks before beginning a
new exercise program can minimize muscle soreness and help maintain muscle function. Take a
combined product containing vitamin C, vitamin E and atbeta-carotene.
2) Start slowly: Get your body accustomed to physical activity before taking on a big project orworkout
regimen. When you’re ready to get back on your bicycle, do it for a bit at a time. The same goes for
turning over the garden or reorganizing the garage.

Achaeans are people of an ancient region in the northern Peloponnesus, Greece. The term was broadly
used by Homer to designate all the inhabitants of ancient Greece. According to Greek mythology, the
Achaeans were descendants of Achaeus, grandson of Hellen, the legendary ancestor of the Hellenes, or
Greeks. The region where they lived was known as Achaea. References to the western kingdom of Ahhiawa
in Hittite documents of the 13th and 14th centuries BC have been thought by some scholars to refer to the
ancient city of Mycenae under Achaean domination. These documents characterize the Achaeans as a
maritime people inhabiting western Asia Minor and the island of Lésvos in the Aegean Sea. In the Homeric
period (circa 7th century BC) the Achaeans controlled southern Thessaly (Thessalia) and most of the
Pelopónnisos, but from the 6th to the 2nd century BC they were restricted to a narrow strip on the north
coast of the Pelopónnisos. In the 4th century BC they formed a confederation of states known as the
Achaean League.

Ernest Shackleton (1874-1922) led three expeditions to the Antarctic, on one of them coming within 179
km (111 ml) of reaching the South Pole—the closest anyone had come at that time. Shackleton is most
remembered for leading the fabled Endurance expedition, in which his men survived for ten months on
ice floes and on a barren uninhabited island after their ship was crushed by pack ice in the Weddell Sea.
Sir Ernest Henry Shackleton was born in County Kildare, Ireland, the eldest son and second of ten children
of a Quaker doctor and his wife. The Shackleton family motto was the Latin phrase FortitudineVincimus(by
endurance we conquer). Shackleton attended Dulwich College in London, England, for three years before
going to sea at age 16. He spent the next 11 years in the merchant marine. In 1901 Shackleton joined the
British National Antarctic Expedition led by British naval officer Robert Falcon Scott, sailing on the ship
Discovery. The goal of the expedition was to reach the South Pole.

Questions 45– 47 refer to the text below.
Managed Intensive Rotational Grazing (MIRG), also known as cell grazing, mob grazing and holistic managed
planned grazing, is a variety of forage use in which herds/flocks are regularly and systematically moved to fresh,
rested grazing areas to maximize the quality and quantity of forage growth. MIRG can be used with cattle,
sheep, goats, pigs, chickens, turkeys, ducks and other animals. The herds graze one portion of pasture, or a
paddock, while allowing the others to recover. Resting grazed lands allows the vegetation to renew energy
reserves, rebuild shoot systems, and deepen root systems, resulting in long-term
maximum biomass production. MIRG is especially effective because grazers thrive on the more tender
younger plant stems. MIRG also leave parasites behind to die off minimizing or eliminating the need for de-
wormers. Pasture systems alone can allow grazers to meet their energy requirements.

Questions 48– 50 refer to the text below.


Turmeric
Turmeric may have been protecting the health of an entire Indian subcontinent for about 5,000 years. A
traditional Indian diet features white rice and flour breads, which as rapidly digested carbs would ordinarily
raise blood sugar dramatically. But the presence of turmeric – the yellow spice that lends its color to many
curry dishes – helps to manage the potent impact on blood sugar. Curcumin, the active ingredient in
turmeric, is the compound believed to regulate fat metabolism in the body. Curcumin acts directly on fat
cells, pancreatic cells, kidney cells and muscle cells, dampening inflammation and blocking the nefarious
activities of cancer- causing tumor necrosis factor and interleukin-6. Experts believe the combined action of
all of these factors together gives curcumin the power to reverse insulin resistance, high blood sugar and
high cholesterol, and other symptoms linked to obesity.

There is often confusion over the difference between grades and learning assessment. Some believe they
are totally unrelated and others think they are one and the same. The truth is, it depends. (60) Grades are
oftenbased on more than just learning outcomes. Grading criteria often include behaviors or activities that
are not measures of learning outcomes, such as attendance, participation, improvement, or effort. Although
these may be correlated with learning outcomes, and can be valued aspects of the course, typically they are
not measures of learning outcomes themselves.
