about two weeks. But then after that you will be left ______________________________________
with a feeling of emptiness. Scientists conducted an ______________________________________
experiment to compare what happened when a
group of students bought something and what
happened when they had an enjoyable experience.
They found that the feelings created from having an
experience, like spending time with friends or family,
are much stronger and longer lasting than what we
feel when we buy something.

Fitness is the key to good health. But did you know


that exercise can make you happy? When we
exercise, we produce chemicals in our brain that
make us feel positive and energetic. Doing just half
an hour of exercise a day can improve how we feel.
Researchers did experiments with people suffering
from depression. The people were asked to
exercise every day. They recorded how they felt
before and after the exercise over the course of a
month. The results showed a significant
improvement in happiness levels.

3 ___________

Hobbies are also important for happiness and well-


being. Hobbies can make you healthier because
they can lower your stress levels by taking your
mind off any difficulties that you are facing and
focusing your mind on something else. Hobbies are
also a great way to meet new people and make new
friends. Sharing a common interest can make you
feel closer to others. Learning a new skill through a
hobby also increases your self-esteem and this also
makes you feel happier.
