【回答】

61. staying　此處是動名詞短語作主語，故填staying。

62．which　 此處是energy作先行詞，後面是一個非限制*定語從句，從句缺少主語和引導詞，故填which。

63．in　 result in導致，產生。句意：這引起重量增加。

64．comfortable　形容詞修飾名詞，故填comfortable舒適的。　

65．are exposed　 在這裏Outdoor workers是先行詞，和expose之間是被動關係，根據句意可知用一般現在時態的被動語態，故填are exposed。

66．a　句意：有大量棕*脂肪。a significant amount of大量的。

67．compared 　句意：當與同齡的户內工人相比較的時候。compared to/with...，與……相比較。

68．One　 根據前面一句two different control groups of mice，可知這裏是其中的一組，故填one。

69．lower　根據句中的than，可知用比較級，故填lower。

70．possibly　副詞修飾動詞，故填possibly。
