Question

【題目】 What do you do when you feel unhappy? Do you listen to music? Do you talk to a friend?

Maybe next time you feel sad, you should try going outside if it is sunny. Doctors know that how much sunlight we get can change how we feel. Scientists learned this by interviewing people who live in different parts of the world. In the far north, in Alaska or Finland, for example, the days are very short in the winter. People living in these places say that they often feel unhappy in the winter. In the south, where there are more daylight hours, fewer people say they are unhappy in the winter. The reason is the amount (數(shù)量) of sunlight these people get each day. Sunlight changes the chemicals (化學(xué)物) in our bodies, and these chemicals can change the way we feel. A couple of hours of strong sunlight or light from a special lamp can help your body make the chemicals that make us feel happy.

Another way to feel happier is to get some exercise. Just like sunlight, regular exercise helps our bodies make certain chemicals, which make us feel happier. In addition, exercise helps people sleep better and lack of sleep often makes people feel unhappy. Exercise also helps you get rid of stress. When you are angry or upset about something, exercise is a good way to get those bad feelings out of you.

文章大意；本文主要是介紹了幾種方法可以讓自己變得更高興些，以及這些方法起作用的原因。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Doctors know that how much sunlight we get can change how we feel. 醫(yī)生們知道，我們得到多少陽光可以改變我們的感覺。以及In the south, where there are more daylight hours, fewer people say they are unhappy in the winter. 在南方，白天時間更長，很少有人說他們冬天不開心。原因是這些人每天得到更多的陽光，使人感到快樂，而北方則相反；由此可推知在北方人們不開心是因為得到的陽光少，故答案選B。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)A couple of hours of strong sunlight or light from a special lamp can help your body make the chemicals that make us feel happy.幾個小時的強烈陽光或一盞特殊的燈發(fā)出的光可以幫助你的身體產(chǎn)生讓我們感到快樂的化學(xué)物質(zhì)。由此可知陽光幫助你的身體產(chǎn)生某些化學(xué)物質(zhì)。故答案選D。

【3】段意歸納題。根據(jù)第二段的內(nèi)容Doctors know that how much sunlight we get can change how we feel. 醫(yī)生們知道，我們得到多少陽光可以改變我們的感覺。以及后面的描述，可知本段介紹了“陽光能改變?nèi)说母惺?/span>”，陽光越多，人就越快樂。所以C選項最符合文意，故答案選C。

【4】理解判斷題。根據(jù)A couple of hours of strong sunlight or light from a special lamp can help your body make the chemicals that make us feel happy.幾個小時的強烈陽光或一盞特殊的燈發(fā)出的光可以幫助你的身體產(chǎn)生讓我們感到快樂的化學(xué)物質(zhì)。Another way to feel happier is to get some exercise. 另一種更快樂的方式是鍛煉。以及lack of sleep often makes people feel unhappy. 睡眠不足常常使人感到不開心�？芍�更多的陽光、加強鍛煉和充足的睡眠都能使我們變得更快樂，文中沒有提到吃更多食物這一項，所以A選項不符合題意，故答案選A。

【5】標(biāo)題歸納題。根據(jù)What do you do when you feel unhappy? 感到不高興時該怎么辦？以及下文文章的描述，可知本文主要是介紹了不高興時該做些什么，可以讓自己變得高興，結(jié)合選項，可知C選項“讓自己更快樂的方法”符合題意，故答案選C。
