put on weight , Family traits, skin colour, ginger hair, straight, paler skin, body strength ,
growth spurts, body building, thinner
 DIFFERENCES BETWEEN PEOPLE
People differ physically from the moment of conception, but it is only after birth that an individual can
be observed (1) Family traits and characteristics are noted by adoring parents who think the baby looks like
another family member or definitely takes after the mother's side or, without a doubt, has his father's nose.
Eye colour, (2) skin colour and the texture of our hair are all different and depend on our inherited
genes. A baby born with (3)ginger hair may in a few months’ time have fair hair as the birth hair falls out and
is replaced. Hair can be fine, thick, (4) straight or curly, and as we grow older it gets (5)thinner. Some hair
loss is experienced at quite an early age whilst others have a full head of hair throughout their lives. People
with dark hair may find that it turns to grey or white even before they reach their 40's.
European people in general have (6) paler skin than if your ancestors come from Africa or Asia. Skin
can change colour if exposed to sunlight, but the tan does not last unless it is regularly topped up.
The rate at which we develop and grow is variable. Boys and girls of the same age show big differences
in (7)growth spurts especially when puberty is reached. At the age of 12, girls are much taller than boys of
the same age, but at 16 years of age, boys shoot up and overtake the girls in height and (8)body strength.
The way the body develops is not just a result of physical changes, as our mental processes have a
large part to play in what we want to achieve. A desire to become a skilful footballer, a long distance runner
or a strong swimmer require stamina and years of practise to try and attain the top level. Even with hours of
(9) body building activities and work-outs in the gym, a person will not be able to compete in a Strong Man
competition if they have a small frame and fragile bones.
The food we eat will, to a certain extent, determine how we grow and gives us strong bones. A lack of
activity and eating too much sweet sugary food can result in people gaining body building. It seems unfair that
one person can eat all sorts of fattening food and not (10) put on weight whilst others just 'looking at a cream
cake' can put on pounds or kilos.
