Read the following passage and choose the best answer for each blank.

Many health experts believe that children and young people today are more unhealthy than they used to be. So why has this happened?

One reason is bad eating habits. They eat too fast food like hamburgers and pizzas and not enough fruits and vegetables. In United States, many children have been eating fast food regularly since they were young. In fact, almost one-third of American children aged four to nineteen have been eating fast food nearly all the time. They also don't do exercise and much time watching TV, surfing the Internet or playing computer games.

So how can you change your habits if you have been following an unhealthy for a long time? First, you change your diet and eat more vegetables. Next, find an activity you enjoy. Why not try something different like rock climbing or hiking? Many young people have found that becoming fit and healthy can be a lot of fun.

Read and choose the correct answer for each question.

In the past, people often drank coffee or tea to wake up and start their day.  Later, cola drinks entered the market and became a "pick-me-up" for many adults and teenagers because they contain a lot of caffeine and sugar. Nowadays, "energy drinks" have filled the shelves of almost every convenience store. They are specially made to help people get more energy quickly when they feel very tired or exhausted.

A famous example of these drinks is Red Bull. The makers say that it is not a drink to stop thirst or a sports drink for athletes. Instead, it is meant to make a tired person feel fresh and active again. To do this, companies add caffeine, sugar, vitamins, and special chemicals. Some of these chemicals are like the ones our bodies make naturally. Many students and workers believe this powerful mix helps them stay awake during long hours of work or study.

However, many doctors are not sure if these drinks are really good. There is no strong evidence that the vitamins in these drinks actually give people more energy. Because these drinks have so many different ingredients, it is hard to know how they work together inside the human body. Dr. Brent Bauer warns people not to believe everything they see in advertisements. He says that the mix of ingredients might have a bad effect on health. People should be careful because the long-term results are still unknown.
