Middle Age：A Low Point for Most People around the globe hit the height of their misery and depression in_____ 1 age，a new international study suggests.The finding by British and American researchers was based on an analysis of well-being among approximately 2 million people in 80 nations.With few exceptions，the observation appears to apply across the board，regardless _____2 gender，culture，geography，wealth，job history，education，and marriage or parental status."The scientific fact seems to be that happiness and positive mental health follow a giant‘U’_____3 through life，"said study author Andrew J.Oswald，a professor of economics at Warwick University in Warwickshire，England."For the average person，it‘s high when you’re 20，and then it slowly falls and bottoms out_____ 4 your 40s.But the good news is that your _____5 health picks up again，and eventually gets back to the high levels of our youth."
