Talking to friends, family or workmates can make us feel happy. Not talking to others can also hurt our mind and body. A group of researchers found that just talking once a day could make people feel happier and less stressed. Jeffrey Hall, one of the researchers, said, “We can change how we feel by talking. Just one conversation can help.” The researchers found that sharing jokes, listening to others, talking about recent events, giving real compliments (称赞) and caring for others could help people feel better.
The researchers asked more than 900 people at five universities in the US to have one of these conversations every day. The people then said how they felt after talking. The researchers found that even one good conversation could make people feel better. But the people had better days after they had more good conversations. Hall said, “This means that the more you listen to your friends, care for them, and value their opinions, the better you feel at the end of the day.”
The researchers also said that meeting and talking face—to—face was better for our health and happiness than talking on the phone or social media (社交媒介).
31. Which of the following can’t make you feel better?
A. Sharing jokes. B. Listening to others.
C. Saying nothing. D. Talking about recent events.
32. Which one is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Only talking to friends can make us feel happy.
B. Everybody needs to talk just once a day.
C. Researchers found that caring for others could help people feel better.
D. Don’t value your friends’ opinions if you want to feel happy.
33. What’s the Chinese meaning of the underlined word “stressed” in Paragraph 1?
A. 激动的 B. 焦虑不安的 C. 劳累的 D. 重读的
34. Which part of a magazine does the text probably come from?
A. History. B. Science. C. Health. D. Food.
35. What’s the best title for this text?
A. How to Make Friends

C. Talking on the Phone Makes Us Feel Happy
D. Talking to Others Can Make Us Feel Happy

阅读下面短文,按要求完成1—5小题。
Would you like to grow chilies (辣椒) in your garden? They need a warm climate. If you plant the seeds outside and the weather is cold, place a glass over them. That will protect them from wind and cold and let them enjoy enough sunshine. You can also start the seeds in your home or a greenhouse.
If you plant chilies inside, fill an 8 cm pot with soil. The pot should have holes at the bottom so water can run out. Drop some seeds in the pot and cover with some soil. Then cover the top of the pot with a see—through plastic (塑料) bag. If the chilies start growing, take off the bag. If the plants are about 2 cm high, place each one in its own 8 cm pot. If you can see the rots from the bottom of the pot, transplant (移栽) each plant into a 12 cm pot. If the first flowers show, give the plants some fertilizer (肥料). When the weather is warm, put them into big pots and place them outside.

Talking to friends, family or workmates can make us feel happy. Not talking to others can also hurt our mind and body. A group of researchers found that just talking once a day could make people feel happier and less stressed. Jeffrey Hall, one of the researchers, said, “We can change how we feel by talking. Just one conversation can help.” The researchers found that sharing jokes, listening to others, talking about recent events, giving real compliments (称赞) and caring for others could help people feel better.
The researchers asked more than 900 people at five universities in the US to have one of these conversations every day. The people then said how they felt after talking. The researchers found that even one good conversation could make people feel better. But the people had better days after they had more good conversations. Hall said, “This means that the more you listen to your friends, care for them, and value their opinions, the better you feel at the end of the day.”
The researchers also said that meeting and talking face—to—face was better for our health and happiness than talking on the phone or social media (社交媒介).
31. Which of the following can’t make you feel better?
A. Sharing jokes. B. Listening to others.
C. Saying nothing. D. Talking about recent events.
32. Which one is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Only talking to friends can make us feel happy.
B. Everybody needs to talk just once a day.
C. Researchers found that caring for others could help people feel better.
D. Don’t value your friends’ opinions if you want to feel happy.

Would you like to grow chilies (辣椒) in your garden? They need a warm climate. If you plant the seeds outside and the weather is cold, place a glass over them. That will protect them from wind and cold and let them enjoy enough sunshine. You can also start the seeds in your home or a greenhouse.
If you plant chilies inside, fill an 8 cm pot with soil. The pot should have holes at the bottom so water can run out. Drop some seeds in the pot and cover with some soil. Then cover the top of the pot with a see—through plastic (塑料的) bag. If the chilies start growing, take off the bag. If the plants are about 2 cm high, place each one in its own 8 cm pot. If you can see the rots from the bottom of the pot, transplant (移栽) each plant into a 12 cm pot. If the first flowers show, give the plants some fertilizer (肥料).
