Fill in the blanks according to the text.
Amy, a Canadian actress, used to go to the gym three times a week. Yet she doesn’t work out any more, for she gets to know another way to stay slim. Since Amy is ashamed of her body, she tries her best to lose weight by taking weight-loss pills. At first, Amy feels that the pills really work. However, she feels not so energetic later and she has to spend time in hospital recovering from liver failure. She regretted taking the pills because they contain a harmful chemical. The painful experience makes Amy realize that people should not damage their health for an attractive figure, for it is not worth it.
After learning about Amy’s experience, Zhou Ling, Amy’s friend agrees that people should not be embarrassed about their weight because nothing is more important than health.
