【题目】 For hundreds of years, scientists have been trying to answer what things have an effect on people’s emotions(情感). How you feel is controlled by many things. Your emotions can be affected by your personality, by the actions of others and by events around you. Perhaps you don’t know your emotions can be affected by the weather as well.

People often say they feel good when the sun is shining and sad when it is cloudy. In fact, sunlight makes us feel good. When sunlight hits our skins, it helps our bodies produce vitamin D(维生素). Vitamin D helps our bodies make a special chemical. This special chemical affects our brains and makes us feel happy. For example, there are long, dark winters of little sunlight in some countries in the world, so many people in these countries often feel sad. Without much sunlight, their bodies produce less vitamin D. Without enough vitamin D, their bodies make less of this special chemical which makes them feel good. To help the people in these countries feel better, special “sunrooms” with artificial lights have been built. People can go there and get “sunlight” for an hour or two!

The weather can also affect people’s emotions in other ways. Hot weather can make people angry because people feel uncomfortable when they are hot. In the same way, rain can make people angry because being wet can be unpleasant. As you can see, the weather can have an effect on the chemicals which control our brains. Through these days, the weather can affect our emotions. Sadly, while the weather can change us, we can hardly change the weather.

1The underlined word artificial in the passage means “________” in Chinese.

A. 天然的 B. 人造的 C. 虚构的

2From the passage we know that _______.

A.people feel good when it is cloudy

B.in the countries where there are long, dark winters of little sunlight, many people feel sad

C.special “sunrooms” have been built all over the world

A. Weather. B. Actions of others.

C. Personality. D. Age.

4Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A.Enough vitamin D makes people feel good

B.Both hot weather and rainy weather can make people angry

C.Only weather can control our emotions.

5 The best title for this passage should be _______

A.People Need More Vitamin D

B.We Can Hardly Change the Weather

C.Weather Affects People’s Emotions

【题目】It was Molly’s job to hand her father his blue paper lunch bag each morning before he went to work. One morning, besides his usual lunch bag, Molly handed him a second brown paper bag. “What’s in it ?” his father asked. “Just some little things. Take it with you,” Molly answered.

At noon, he opened Molly’s bag and took out the things in it: three hair ribbons, two small stones, a plastic dinosaur, a small doll… The busy father smiled, finished eating, and swept the desk clean into the dustbin, Molly’s bag was together with. That evening, Molly ran up behind him as he was reading the paper. “Where’s my bag?” “I left it at the office. Why?” “I forgot to put this note in it, she said. “And, besides, Daddy, the things in the bag are the things I really like— I thought you might like to play with them in your free time. You didn’t lose the bag, did you, Daddy?” “Oh, no,” he said, lying. “I just forgot to bring it home.”

While Molly hugged her father’s neck, he opened the note that read: “I love you, Daddy.” Molly had given him her treasures(财富)— all that a 7-year-old girl had. Love in a paper bag, and he missed it—not only missed it, but had thrown it in the dustbin. So he went back to the office, got the bag back and carried it home.

Sometimes we can think of all the happy time in our sweet life, We should all remember that it’s not the destination(终点) that is important in life, but the journey. That journey with the people we love is all that really matters. It is such a simple truth but it is so easily forgotten.

1Molly always passed her father his brown paper lunch bag.

2The father found seven things in the brown bag at home.

3The father told a white lie to his daughter in order not to hurt the daughter.

4The father regretted to throw the things in the brown bag.

5In the life journey, enjoying the happiness with the people we love really matters.
