1 . 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入 1 个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Many people think that money brings happiness. However, according to Professor Michael Argyle, this is not true. In Britain, we are     1     (rich) but unhappier than fifty years   ago. The USA is the richest country in the world but Americans are not the happiest people in the world.

Professor Argyle has found that very poor people and very rich people are unhappier than those in between. For example, very poor people in     2    developing world live in overcrowded houses without any running water and     3    no electricity. However, there are many millionaires (百万富翁) with     4     (person) problems. A lot of young people     5    get rich very quickly are at risk.

Because of this, a few young millionaires are changing their life styles. Richard Cross, a multi-millionaire computer analyst ( 分 析 师 ) from California is an example. His house     6     (show) no signs of his wealth. There is a small garden   and there only two   cars     7     (park) outside the house. “I want my kids     8     (live) a normal life,” says Richard.

So what can make     9     (we) happy? According to Professor Argyle, you should have one close relationship and some close     10     (friend). You should do a little sport and have a lot of contact (联系) with other people. Other people make you happy, not money!

9 . Getting into an air-conditioned space during extreme heat is the best way of protecting yourself against heat-related illness, Dr. Pryor says. But there are a few additional things you can do to serve the purpose.

Focus on hydrating(补水), even before you go outside

“    1    ,” Dr. Pryor says. And if you know you’ll be out in the heat for a while, here commends having a food or drink that contains electrolytes(电解质) — say, a salty snack or sports drink—before you head outdoors, since you’ll lose a lot of them in your sweat. Both water and electrolytes will keep you hydrated.

    2    

Go for lightweight, light-colored, and loose-fitting clothes, like a cotton shirt. Heavy, form-fitting clothing obviously won’t feel great when your skin badly needs to breathe. Meanwhile, dark-colored clothes take in the sun’s heat and make you feel hotter.

Rethink your dinner menu

Cooking meals will give off a lot of heat and can make your space even steamier.     3     .

Cut down on exercise needing great energy

“    4    ,” Dr. Pryor says. So if you typically run three miles, you might instead run one or two during a cooler time of the day, have water with you, and take breaks to check in on how your body feels.

Take a cool shower

This kind of shower has an air conditioning effect, Dr. Pryor explains.     5     . This is also an important tip to keep in mind if someone near you is dealing with a heat stroke (中暑) situation, which is the most serious heat-related illness.

A．Choose your proper clothing

B．You’d better work out at a gym.

C．Bring a change of clothes with you

D．Cool water helps lower your body temperature quickly

E．If you are going to be outside in high heat, start hydrating early

F．Exercise is OK if you know how to reduce the time of the workout

G．Instead, consider making a meal that requires no heat, like no-cook dinners
