cexperts say crying is good for you . having a good weep at the weekend is becoming more popular among office workers in china. “i need to cry to let my feeling out,” said 22-year-old xiao ai, a smart-looking young woman. “i remember one day when i got home i felt so down but i had no one to talk to, so i just hugged my teddy bear and cried myself to sleep,” xiao ai said. the next day, she said, she felt much better and life seemed not so bad after all. because crying is taken as a sign of weakness, people make a great show of being strong and not displaying emotion. psychologists and medical practitioners agree that crying is beneficial for mental health but people still regard it as a sign of failure and bottle up their feelings. a famous chinese author once said to cry is normal, and even brave. those who display their emotions can deal with their troubles bravely after the tears dry, while those who soldier on let problems fester（恶化）. in the chao yang district of beijing, there is a special place for people to cry their sadness out. it is called “cry bar”. on the door of each of its “cry rooms” there is a saying encouraging people to let the tears flow freely. “crying is a kind of therapy, but it needs some direction,” said a psychologist， “people should realize the point of crying is to relieve pressure, but some of the young people who come to the cry bar simply sit and weep. the purpose of crying is to make it easier to improve your life after the tears dry, not to get lost in bad memories. crying is only one way of relieving pressure, and we need to face problems squarely and solve them once the tears have dried.”28. crying _ made xiao ai feel better.a. in bed before sleepb. all the night with a toyc. during her sleep d. with some friend 29.

the customers do at the cry bar?a. think of every sad experience theyve had and sit and weep.b. keep crying as loudly as long as possible.c. satisfy any desire to cry and weep until it is gone.d. hold back their tears until they cant help but cry.31. from the text, we can learn that crying _.a. is to relieve pressure b. must help to solve problemsc. means facing problems squarely d. cant weaken sad feelings.d while we sleep, our brains are doing much more than getting ready for the next day .researchers at the university of rochester found that the brain may be busy cleaning house -cleaning out harmful waste material. as with many studies, the researchers turned to mice for help. they studies mice that had colored dye injected into their brains .they observed the mice brains as they slept and when they were awake .the researchers say they saw that the brains of sleeping mice were hard at work . dr. maiken nedergaard led the study .the brain expert says our brains perform two very different jobs. it seems they have daytime jobs. later they “moonlight “at a nighttime job. “moonlighting “is working a nighttime job in addition to a day job .and this study says that is what our brains seem to be doing -working an extra job at night without additional pay for overtime . when we are awake ,the brain cells are working very hard at processing all the information about our surroundings .but when we are asleep ,they work very ,very hard at removing all the waste that builds up when we are awake .the researchers say that the waste material includes poisons ,or toxins ,responsible for brain disorders such as alzheimers disease. they also found that during sleep, the brains cells shrink, or become smaller. this shrinking permits waste to be removed more effectively. dr. nedergaard says these toxins end up in the liver. there they are broken down and then removed from the body. the brains cleaning system could only be studied with new imaging technologies .the test animal must be alive in order to see for this brain process as it happens. dr. nedergaard says the next step is to look for the process in human brains .she said the results proved just how important sleep is to health and fighting disease. the research may also one day lead to treatments to prevent or help fight neurological(神经学上的）disorders .32. in order to understand more about the brain the researchers _.a. have taken the brains out from mice .b. have called on people of different ages .c. have observed the activities of mice .d. have performed different duties .33. what does the brain do when we sleep?a.it makes the brain cells active and grow.b.it tries to keep the surroundings clean and safe.c.it actually gives off kinds of poisons or toxins.d.it works to help our body in good condition.34. the brain cells become smaller while we sleep, which means _.a.it is possible to stop any brain disordersb.it is quite necessary to protect the liver c.it is effective to get rid of the waste d.it is helpful to make scientific research 35. it can be inferred from the passage that _.a. the brains cleaning system is very magical b. human beings will benefit from the results c. a
