Id have a lot to drink before bed, which was unusual for me. One time, I opened a big container of apple juice and kept refilling my glass. Before I knew it, Id drunk the entire container! My mom called my doctor. I then had a few blood tests, and the results were certain I had diabetes (糖尿病), which meant that the amount of sugar in my blood was very high. That can be dangerous, so I had to learn how to control my blood sugar level. My eating habits had to change in a big way. With diabetes, I cant eat a lot of sugar or carbohydrates (碳水化合物). I have to figure out exactly how much sugar I plan to eat, and then I get an injection of insulin (注射胰岛素) before the meal to help my body process the food. Also, I test my blood sugar level often. Im always trying to keep my blood sugar at a healthy level. The level can drop when I exercise, but that doesnt keep me out of gym class or off the basketball court I just keep some juice boxes around to boost my blood sugar if I need to. Its a lot of work and not a lot of fun to keep track of everything, but Ive gotten used to my new habits. I was a little scared at first because I wasnt sure how my life would change. Once I knew what I needed to do, though, it wasnt a big deal. My life is different now from what it was before, but it has become completely regular to me. 1The first paragraph is mainly about _.Awho found the author had diabetes Bthe authors life before having diabetesChow the author was found to have diabetesD the authors eating habits before having diabetes2What did the author do after knowing she had diabetes?AShe stopped playing basketball in the gym.
