How you feel is controlled by many things. Your emotions can be influenced by yourpersonality, by the actions of others and by events around you. Perhaps you dont know your emotions can be influenced by the weather as well. People often say they feel good when the sun is shining and sad when it is cloudy. In fact, sunlightmakes us feel good. When sunlight hits our skins, our bodies produce a vitamin. Vitamins are naturalchemicals (化学物质) which we all need to stay healthy. Sunlight helps our bodies produce vitaminD. Vitamin D helps our bodies make a special chemical. This special chemical affects our brains (大脑)and makes us feel happy. For example, there are long, dark winters of little sunlight in Sweden andNorway, 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 makesthem feel good. To help the people in these countries feel better, special sunrooms with artificial (人造的) lights have been built. People can go there and get sunlight for an hour or two! The weather can also affect peoples emotions in other ways. Hot weather can make people angrybecause people feel uncomfortable when they are hot. In the same way, rain can make people angrybecause being wet can be unpleasant. As you can see, the weather can have an effect on the chemicals which control our brains. Through these ways, the weather can influence our emotions. Sadly, whilethe weather can change us, we can hardly change the weather.1. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a factor (因素) that can affect ones emotions?A. Weather. B. Actions of others. C. Personality. D. Age.2. Which of the following is true about vitamin D according to the passage?A. It is a kind of artificial chemical. B. It makes us worried by affecting our brains.C. It is needed by us all to keep fit. D. It is in the sunlight.3. What can we infer (推断) from the passage?A. We feel good when we are in the bright cool weather.B. We will be happy when we are caught in the rain.C. All people in Norway and Sweden feel sad in winter.D. The more vitamin D you have, the happier youll be.4. What may be the best title for this passage?A. Why Do We Feel Sad? B. The Weather Influences Peoples EmotionsC. People Need More Vitamin D D. We Can Hardly Change the WeatherD What is your favourite colour? Do you like yellow, orange, and red? If you do, you must be an optimist, a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. Do you prefer grey and blues? Then youare probably quiet, shy and you would rather follow than lead. If you love green, you are strong-minded and determined. You wish to succeed and want other people to see you are successful. At least this is whatpsychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning ofcolour preference, and the influence that colours have on human beings. They tell us that we dont chooseour favourite colours as we grow up. If you happen to love brown, you did so as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly. A yellow room makes us feel more cheerful and more comfortable than a dark green one, and a red dressbrings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing. Light and bright colours make people not only happier but more active. It is a fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines and painted orange rather than black or dark grey.Remember, then, that if you feel low, you can always brighten your day or your life with a new shirt ora few colourful things. Remember also that you will know your friends and your enemies better when youfind out what colours they like and dislike. And dont forget that anyone can guess a lot about your character when you choose a piece of handkerchief.1. According to this passage, _.A. One is born with his colour preferenceB.
