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（数量，总量） of sunlight these people get each day. Sunlight changes the chemicals（化学品） in our bodies, and these chemicals can change the way we feel. A couple of hours of strong light or light from a special lamp（灯） 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（有规则的）exercise helps our bodies make certain chemicals, which make us feel happier. In addition(另外), exercise helps people sleep better and lack（缺乏的） of sleep often makes people feel unhappy. Exercise also helps you get rid of（消除） stress. When you are angry or upset about something, exercise is a good way to get those bad feelings out of you. ( ) 41 Why do people in the far north feel unhappy more often than people in the south? A. Because they cant go outside.B. Because they get less sunlight. C. Because the weather is too cold. ( ) 42. How can sunlight change the way you feel? A. On a sunny day, you can play outside. B. Sunlight helps your body make certain chemicals. C. Sunlight increases your body temperature. ( ) 43. What does Paragraph(段落) 2 mainly tell us? A. It is better to live in the south.B. Southern people feel much happier. C. More sunlight can make us happier. ( ) 44. What will NOT make you feel happier according to the passenge? A. Eating more. B. Exercising more. C. Getting enough sleep. ( ) 45 What is the best title for the passage? A. Why Is Sunlight Good for You B. How Can Exercise Help You C. Ways to Feel Better BWhenever the sun dropped and the blue sky came up, my father and I used to climb the mountain near my house. Walking together, my father and I used to have a lot of conversations through which I learned lessons from his life. He always told me, “You should have goals（目标） like climbing the mountain.” Without the mountain-climbing that we both enjoyed, we couldnt have enough time to spend together because my father was very busy. I really got a lot from mountain-climbing. It gave me time to talk with my father and to be in deep thought as well as develop my patience (耐力).Once we climbed a very high mountain. It was so challenging for me because I was only ten years old. During the first few hours of climbing, I enjoyed the flowers, trees, and the birds singing, but as time passed, I got a pain（疼痛） in both of my legs. I wanted to quit climbing. In fact, I hated it at that moment, but my father said to me, “You can always see a beautiful sky at the top of the mountain, but you cant see it before you reach the top. Only there at the top, can you see all of the nice things, just like in life.”At that time, I was too young to understand his words. But later after that, I got new hope and confidence (信心). I found myself standing at the top of the sky, which was as clear as crystal (水晶). ( ) 46. The passage tells us that mountain-climbing was _ for Father and Son.

D The size and shape of your ears show your character more than any other part of the face. Other parts of the face change shapes as they get older but ears dont change their shapes. They only change in size. Reading peoples character from their ears is a very old science. In the past people thought that a persons ears with color was dangerous. They also thought that the shape of the ears showed if a person was musical or not. Today many people believe that the size and the shape of the ears help you know if a person is musical. Ears are all different and each different thing has a meaning. Next time you look at a person see if his or her ears are large medium-size or small. Look at the lobes （耳垂）.

This is very good, but it doesnt help a lot, because a student must have enough sleep, enough food, enough rest and exercise. Every day you need to go out for a walk or visit some friends or some nice places. Thats good for you to study. Then when you return to your studies, youll learn more and better.Psychologists（心理学家） have found that learning takes place in the following way. Here lets take English learning for example. First you make a lot of progress and you feel happy. Then your language study seems to stay the same. So you think youre learning nothing and you may give up. It will be a long time before your language study again takes another big jump.So, if you get enough sleep, food, rest and exercise, studying English can be very effective and interesting. Dont give up along the way. Learn slowly, and youre sure to get a good result.根据短文内容，判断下列句子，正确的写（A）错误的写（B）。( ) 61. The writer thinks a student should study hard for long hours.( ) 62.
