So they seldom like outdoor activities, or use sunglasses, sunshades, sunscreen cream and so on to protect them from the sunshine.As a matter of fact, the sun is quite good for us. Researchers at Swedens Karolinska Institute say that avoiding the sun can be as bad for you as smoking. Here are some reasons why its good for us to spend time in the sunshine.First of all, it helps you start the day. Being woken up gradually by the natural light of the sun improves energy and mood during the day because it turns off melatonin（褪黑素）, which influences sleep. Youre less likely to get that half-awake and half-asleep feeling you suffer during the dark mornings of winter months. Sleep with your curtains open to wake naturally, say sleep experts.Secondly, it makes you feel happier. Its no coincidence that we always feel better when the sun is shining, but is not on rainy or cloudy days. says Emma Derbyshire, public health nutritionist and spokeswoman for Health and Food Supplements Information Service. Exposure（暴露）to sunlight is also related to serotonin（血清素）production in the brain, improving positivity. A test found that safe sun exposure can actually help treat depressive symptoms（抑郁症）, especially in those who are poor in vitamin D, says Emma.Next, it may help you stay slim. Good vitamin D levels have also been related to reduced levels of body fat, says Emma. According to studies by the universities of Southampton and Edinburgh, ultraviolet radiation may control the development of obesity and type-2 diabetes.Last but not least, it is good for your heart. People are more likely to die of heart disease in winter than in summer. According to researchers from Copenhagen University Hospital, those with the lowest levels of vitamin D are 81% more likely to die of heart disease compared with those with the highest levels of the vitamin. Sun exposure cuts the risk of heart attack and stroke by reducing blood pressure, according to the research.19 . The writer mentions Karolinska Institutes research in Paragraph 2 to show that _.Athe sun is as bad for us as smokingBspending time in the sun is good for usCsunshine makes us get sunburntDthe sun makes our skin deep-colored20 . Sleep experts probably agree that _.Awe should sleep in the darkness as much as possibleBthe natural light of the sun cant improve energy and mood during the dayCit is good to sleep with curtains open and wake naturallyDyou wont get that half-awake and half-asleep feeling with the help of melatonin21 . The word coincidence in Paragraph 4 probably means _.Atwo things happening at the same time by chanceBtwo things having something in contrastCtwo things planning to happen at the same timeDtwo things being the same in all ways22 . What can we learn from the passage?AMelatonin is bad for sleep.BSerotonin production in the brain makes you feel happier.CGood vitamin D levels are not related to staying slim.DSun exposure has nothing to do with heart health.I used to think courtesy (礼貌) was a thing of the past. However, I changed my mind when I met a courteous man.Last Saturday, I went to a cafe with my daughters. It was crowded with the usual loud crowd and we had to climb up the stairs to find an empty table. After enjoying coffee and snacks, we were ready to come down the stairs, where the narrow space made climbing down only possible in a single line, with hardly any space for another person to either climb up or come down.Just as I was in the middle of my descent (下去), a man got to the main entrance (入口) of the cafe which was right in front of the staircase. I was sure I would be pushed by the man who would want to go up in a hurry. Anyway, I kept coming down as fast as I could. My daughters were already down, looking up at me worriedly, hoping I would get down before the stranger went up the stairs.Nearly getting down, I noticed the man still standing near the door. Later, I passed him at the entrance door which he kept holding open. I looked back thinking he was still at the door, deciding whether to go in or find another less crowded place. However, I saw him going up the stairs, two at a time.I told my daughters about it and all of us felt bad for we did not even thank the courteous gentleman.23 .
