Vraag 9
Read the text and answer the questions.
Doctor's office
I was feeling a little ill the other day. I felt nauseous and I had a splitting headache. So, the next day, I decided to visit my doctor before things got worse. I called the doctor’s office in the morning, and I made an appointment for 9:30 a.m.
When I arrived at the surgery, the nurse gave me some forms: I had to fill out some insurance paperwork and a form describing my current medical condition, along with the symptoms I was feeling. After a few minutes, the nurse called my name and took me back to one of their examination rooms. It was a large room with a desk and chairs, a bed to examine people on and bookshelves full of medical books. The nurse checked my vital signs including my temperature and blood pressure and then I was asked to wait until the doctor came in. The GP arrived shortly after that. He asked me a few questions and examined my stomach. After the examination, he asked me a few more questions. The doctor's diagnosis was that I had a bacterial infection. She wrote me a prescription for some medication, which I was supposed to take two times a day. After the appointment, I went to the pharmacy to pick up the medicine. Luckily the pharmacy is located next to the surgery, so I didn’t have to walk far. Then I went home with my medicine and went to bed, because I still felt sick. I hope I will feel better tomorrow.

Vraag 11
Read the text and answer the questions.
Healthy habits
Developing healthy habits such as eating healthy and exercising helps protect you from physical and mental problems. You'll feel and function better and feel healthier. Here are some examples of healthy habits.
1. Eat breakfast every day Breakfast is the “most important meal of the day.” You need it to replenish the supply of glucose your body lost overnight. A healthy morning meal provides the nutrients needed for your brain and body to function well.
2. Drink enough water Drinking plenty of water helps remove toxins from your body and replaces fluids lost through sweat and urine. Water also improves the movement of nutrients and oxygen to your cells. Drink 8 glasses of water a day, as recommended by doctors, to stay hydrated and keep your body functioning well.
3. Keep yourself active You don’t have to go to the gym to exercise. Keeping your body moving is considered exercise. Physical movement increases blood circulation, burns calories, and helps maintain heart health. Take the stairs up instead of the elevator or get up and move around your house or workplace every 30 minutes.
20. Put away electronics ahead of bedtime You have to set boundaries with your electronic devices if you want to have the best sleep. Blue light from these devices interferes with the body’s release of melatonin, a hormone that makes you feel drowsy. End screen time with your TV, phone, tablet, or laptop about 2-3 hours before bedtime. Set an alarm to remind you to turn off electronics.
