It is usually believed that both genes(基因) and environment may affect people’s temperaments in different ways. But now scientists have found that the season of birth also plays a role. A group of scientists studied 400 students to find out which of four kinds of temperaments they most had. In the study, the students needed to answer some questions. The scientists found that the students always answered something like “My mood often changes for no reason” and “I love to deal with new problems, even if it is risky”. These answers were then matched with their birthdays. They found that people born in summer easily changed between sad and happy moods. And those who always felt positive(乐观的) are mostly born in spring and summer. The study also found that those born in autumn less probably had a mood of depression. Depression may easily drive them to cry. And those born in winter were not easier to be angry. The scientists said that this was probably because the seasons had an influence(影响) on certain chemicals in the human body. And the chemicals are important to control people’s moods. “It seems that when you are born may affect your chance of getting certain mood disorders(紊乱),” lead scientist Xenia Gonda said. ( ) 49.

People born in summer change their moods more easily. B. The season of birth has an influence on people’s moods. C. The students’ answers were matched with their birthdays. D. There were 400 scientists taking part in the study. ( ) 53. What’s the passage mainly about? A. Seasons and moods. B. Moods and health. C. The importance of birthdays. D. The influence of genes on moods. 第二节 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的六个选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺、连贯，意思完整，其中有一项为多余选项。（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分） E 54 It may be really hard to tell others that you are feeling sad, worried, angry or nervous. But if you keep these feelings in your heart and don’t talk about them with others, you may fall ill. If you talk with someone who cares a lot about you, like your dad or mom, you may feel better. 55 But if you don’t want to talk with your dad or mom, it’s better to find another trusty(可信的) grown-up, like a teacher at school. Maybe this person can understand what you’re thinking about and give you useful suggestions. Once you know who you can talk to, you should choose when and where to talk. You may find it difficult to say what you think. That’s OK. 56 If the person can’t understand what you mean right away, try to say it in a different way or give an example.

The way a person feels inside is important. C. But it is important to share feelings when you need help. D. Shy people usually find it hard to talk to others. E.
