Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.

Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.

Every person needs energy to go about the day and continue to function correctly. To get this energy, you eat, and your body changes the food into the nutrients and energy you need to survive. Your metabolism (新陳代謝) is directly related to how quickly and efficiently your body creates this energy, and if it takes too long, the food gets stored as fat. A slow metabolism will leave you with less energy and more weight than you probably desire.

Your basal metabolic rate (基礎代謝率) is the amount of energy your body consumes while you're resting. When people say they have a slow metabolism, they mean they have a slow basal metabolic rate. Increasing this number is possible through exercise and muscle building.

According to Metabolism-Advice. com, as your age, your basal metabolic rate will lower as your body begins to deteriorate (衰退). At the age of 30, your body will stop producing the high levels of growth hormone it previously produces. Your body senses that it's done growing at 30, so it uses the resources elsewhere. Unfortunately, that means that your muscle will deteriorate more rapidly than before. While you can’t block age's effects or your metabolism, you can fight against it with regular exercise that builds muscle.

Although muscle deteriorates quicker with age, a lack of exercise will hurt your metabolism at any age. The muscle developed during exercise is vital to maintaining a healthy body with a normal basal metabolic rate. Therefore, while cardiovascular(心血管的)exercise will burn fat during the work out, building muscle will wisely allow your body to use more calories to give you healthy energy instead of stored fat.

Another large factor that determines your basal metabolic rate is your eating habits. Metabolism-Advice. com suggests eating small meals every two to three hours. This will make sure that your metabolism is constantly working throughout your day. Another large factor is how healthily you eat. Taking in the required calories for your amount of daily activity will help keep your metabolism from lowering, but taking in too many calories may lead to fat.

often teach about happiness and what has become clear is this：There are some qualities always unhappy people have．Here are some of them．

Happy people know life can be hard and tend to live through hard times．They take responsibility for how they got themselves into a mess，and focus on getting themselves out of it as soon as possible．Unhappy people see themselves as victims of life and stay stuck in the“l(fā)ook what happened to me” attitude instead of finding a way through and out to the other side．

Most happy people believe in the good in people instead of thinking everyone is out to get them．Generally open and friendly towards people they meet，happy people foster(培養(yǎng))a sense of community around themselves and meet new people with all open heart．Unhappy people are distrustful of most people they meet and don’t think strangers can be trusted．Unfortunately，this behavior slowly closes all chances of meeting new friends．

Unhappy people believe someone else’s good fortune steals from their own．They believe there’s not enough goodness to go around and always compare others’against theirs．This leads to jealousy(嫉妒)．Happy people know that others’good luck and circumstance are just signs of what they also can achieve if they try hard enough．They believe in unlimited possibilities and don’t get stuck in thinking one person’s good fortune limits their possible outcome in life．

There’s only so much space between the two ears．Unhappy people fill that space with constant worry and fear．Happy people experience fear and worry too，but make an important difference between feeling it and living with it．When fear or worry crosses a happy person’s mind，they’ll ask themselves if there’s an action they can take to prevent their fear or worry from happening and they take it．If not，they realize they’re spinning in fear and they lay it down．

1.Paragraph 2 mainly shows that unhappy people tend to _______________．

3.What is implied about happy people?
