A sad movie may be more suitable for you. Some scientists at Ohio State University, the U.S., found that sad movies can make people happier. They presented their study in a magazine called Communication Research. Scientists asked 361 college students to watch a sad movie called Atonement. The movie tells a story of two lovers who were apart. They died during World War II at the end of the movie. The 361 college students answered questions from the scientists before, after and three times during the movie to find out their different feelings, including sadness (悲伤). According to the result of the report, scientists found out that people felt better after watching the sad movie. Scientists believed this was because the movie made them think about their own lives and relationships. Compared to those of the unlucky lovers in the movie, their lives were full of hope. “I want to live my life to the fullest, and this movie made me think a lot,” one student wrote. Silvia Knobloch-Westerwick, the leader of the study, explained that bad moods (情绪) would make people more thoughtful. “Good moods are generally a sign that everything is fine. You don’t have to worry, and you don’t have to think about problems in your life,” she said. “But bad emotions, like sadness, make you feel terrible about your situation. Therefore, seeing a sad movie may make you feel bad, but that will cause you to think more about your own close relationships and value (珍视) them more.” 26. The scientists asked the college students to watch Atonement . A. to know how their feelings change after watching it B. to make them feel better about themselves C. to encourage them to share their feelings D. to make them live a happy life 27. How many times did the students answer questions from the scientists? A. Three times. B. Four times. C. Five times. D. Six times. 28. Which is the structure of the passage? A B. C. D. 29. What does Silvia think of bad moods? A. Meaningless. B. Useful. C. Proper. D. Boring. 30. What is the best title for this passage? A. Feeling Down? Think about Others. B. Feeling Bad? See a Happy Film. C. Feeling Sad? Watch a Sad Movie. D. Feeling upset? Go to the Cinema. 【答案】26. A 27. C 28. D 29. B 30. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了科学家通过实验证明看一部悲伤的电影会更适合不开心的人，因为它会让你珍惜当下你所拥有的。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The 361 college students answered questions from the scientists before, after and three times during the movie to find out their different feelings, including sadness (悲伤).”可知，科学家让大学生观看《赎罪》这部电影是为了了解他们在观看后的情感变化。故选A。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The 361 college students answered questions from the scientists before, after and three times during the movie to find out their different feelings, including sadness (悲伤).”可知，在电影开始前、结束后回答了问题，以及放映过程中三次回答了科学家们提出的问题，一共是五次。故选C。 【28题详解】 篇章结构题。结合文章内容可知，本文是总分结构，第一段先告诉读者研究的结果，看一部悲伤的电影会更适合不开心的人，第二、三、四、五、六段介绍了科学家们对此做的研究。故选D。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Silvia Knobloch-Westerwick, the leader of the study, explained that bad moods (情绪) would make people more thoughtful.”和“Therefore, seeing a sad movie may make you feel bad, but that will cause you to think more about your own close relationships and value (珍视) them more.”可知，Silvia认为坏情绪会让人更加思考自己的生活和关系，因此她认为坏情绪是有用的。故选B。 【30题详解】 最佳标题题。根据“If you feel sad or upset, remember not to watch a happy movie.

One girl put up her hand. She said that another girl said something bad to her and that it hurt her feelings. She felt quite sad about it. The teacher said nothing but went to the bathroom and got a tube of toothpaste. She held the tube high in the air so that every student could see it. Then she squeezed it just a bit so some toothpaste could come out. After that, she tried to put the toothpaste back in the tube, but it just made a mess. She squeezed the tube even more, pushing out more toothpaste and making even more of a mess. But none of it could go back into the tube. The teacher then told the students, “This toothpaste is just like the words we say. When we say something not kind, it’s hard to take it back. It only makes a mess. Think before we speak and make sure our words are kind before we let them out.” 21 How does the writer start the passage? A. By showing feelings. B. By describe steps. C. By explain an opinion. D.

Never Squeeze Too Much Toothpaste If you feel sad or upset, remember not to watch a happy movie. A sad movie may be more suitable for you. Some scientists at Ohio State University, the U.S., found that sad movies can make people happier. They presented their study in a magazine called Communication Research. Scientists asked 361 college students to watch a sad movie called Atonement. The movie tells a story of two lovers who were apart. They died during World War II at the end of the movie. The 361 college students answered questions from the scientists before, after and three times during the movie to find out their different feelings, including sadness (悲伤). According to the result of the report, scientists found out that people felt better after watching the sad movie. Scientists believed this was because the movie made them think about their own lives and relationships. Compared to those of the unlucky lovers in the movie, their lives were full of hope. “I want to live my life to the fullest, and this movie made me think a lot,” one student wrote. Silvia Knobloch-Westerwick, the leader of the study, explained that bad moods (情绪) would make people more thoughtful. “Good moods are generally a sign that everything is fine. You don’t have to worry, and you don’t have to think about problems in your life,” she said. “But bad emotions, like sadness, make you feel terrible about your situation. Therefore, seeing a sad movie may make you feel bad, but that will cause you to think more about your own close relationships and value (珍视) them more.” 26. The scientists asked the college students to watch Atonement . A. to know how their feelings change after watching it B. to make them feel better about themselves C. to encourage them to share their feelings D. to make them live a happy life 27. How many times did the students answer questions from the scientists? A. Three times. B. Four times. C. Five times. D. Six times. 28. Which is the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 29. What does Silvia think of bad moods? A. Meaningless. B. Useful. C. Proper. D. Boring. 30. What is the best title for this passage? A. Feeling Down? Think about Others. B. Feeling Bad? See a Happy Film. C. Feeling Sad? Watch a Sad Movie. D. Feeling upset? Go to the Cinema. 阅读短文，从方框内所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺、连贯。选项中有一项为多余选项。 The “double reduction” policy (双减政策) has come out for more than 3 years.

My first performance was still clear in my mind, though it happened so long ago. That night, my piano performance was the most important thing in my family. To see my performance, my grandparents would come by plane. My aunt Dianne, a successful news reporter, would come as well, though she was quite busy with her TV news every night. Unluckily, I got very nervous before I performed. What was worse, the more I practiced, the more nervous I was. It seemed very difficult for me to win any prize. When it was my turn, I sat down at the piano in my beautiful dress and started to play. To my disappointment (失望), I made a mistake and then another. It seemed that it took me years to finish my performance. I ran off the stage with tears in my eyes. I felt surprised when I saw people stand up and cheer for me. My mom and dad had flowers for me and they all said congratulations to me. But what I wanted to do was to go back home and cry. When we were back home, I locked myself in my bedroom. I couldn’t believe how I could make such silly mistakes after so many years of hard work. Then I heard someone knocking at the door. It was my aunt. She came in and sat by me. “I still remember my first show on TV,” she said. “I had practiced a thousand times, but I forgot to mention the name of the news and you may not believe I even pronounced (发音) my own name wrongly. Don’t be too hard on yourself. No one can avoid (避免) making mistakes. The key is to face it bravely and learn from it. It can make us better.” I think she is right. 46.
