A lot of people take up dancing as a hobby after work. In fact, dancing has been seen as one of the best exercises to fight bad feelings in recent years.
Why is dancing so helpful? Dancing, moving the body to different kinds of music, helps the body produce more endorphin (内啡肽), a chemical (化学物质) that makes people feel relaxed and happy.
While simply listening to music or doing sports can cheer us up, mixing them together has a stronger effect. In a study, German scientists tested some patients under three conditions: dancing to music, only listening to music, and riding bikes without music. The results showed that the dancing group felt the least sad. This tells us that dancing is more than just moving around—it truly lifts our spirits.
Dancing can also bring people closer. Social dances like tango and Latin need us to move with others, which improves our sense of social connection according to IBSA, a Swiss scientific organization. Through eye contact, people feel more trust and closeness.
▲ Studies show that depression (抑郁症) often has to do with sadness about the past or worries about the future. Dancing helps people focus on the present, connect with their bodies, and free their minds for a while, as reported by Psych Central, a mental health news website. When we dance, we stop overthinking and start feeling. This makes it an excellent way to enjoy the present moment without even trying.
Lauren Helper, an American social worker, says dancing is a helpful way to reduce stress. It can be any form—whether it’s moving alone around the house to a song or going out dancing with friends. “The most important thing is that the movement is fun. You don’t need to be a perfect dancer. Just turn on some music, move your body, and enjoy the moment. That’s the real magic of dance.” she told Psych Central.
26. What can help you the most when you are sad according to the study?
A. Attending a concert. B. Talking to a friend. C. Dancing to music. D. Riding a bike.
27. Why do people take up dancing after work?
A. To kill time. B. To learn new skills. C. To make more friends. D. To fight against bad feelings.
28. Which sentence can be put in the “ ▲ ” in the fifth paragraph?
A. But dancing is not only good for our body.
B. Dancing can also help people forget their problems.
C. Dancing also helps people let go of bad feelings.
D. But dancing is not the only way to feel better.
29. What is the correct structure of the passage?
A. B. C. D.
30. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. A New Way to Do Sports B. The Best Hobby for Workers
C. How to Dance Correctly D. Why Dancing Helps with Feelings

Children know that summer is probably the most interesting of all seasons. However, experts say this season is the most dangerous, especially for children aged 14 and under. In a study of children’s safety in the US, researchers found that nearly half of the injury-related (与受伤相关的) deaths among children happened in summer.
Experts are not surprised by the study’s results. They always know summer is a dangerous season for children. During the summer, children are out of school and spend more time outdoors. They are more likely to get into an accident or be injured. “While we encourage children to be active and spend more time outdoors, they need to understand the importance of safety,” said an expert.
To help children stay safe, the “Make It a Safe Kids’ Summer” Campaign was started during Safe Kids Week, from 7 May to 13 May.
Here are some important summer safety tips from the campaign.
•Always wear your seat belt.
•Wear a life jacket when on a boat or doing water sports.
•Obey all traffic rules.
•Don’t meet e-pals alone.

A lot of people take up dancing as a hobby after work. In fact, dancing has been seen as one of the best exercises to fight bad feelings in recent years.
Why is dancing so helpful? Dancing, moving the body to different kinds of music, helps the body produce more endorphin (内啡肽), a chemical (化学物质) that makes people feel relaxed and happy.
While simply listening to music or doing sports can cheer us up, mixing them together has a stronger effect. In a study, German scientists tested some patients under three conditions: dancing to music, only listening to music, and riding bikes without music. The results showed that the dancing group felt the least sad. This tells us that dancing is more than just moving around—it truly lifts our spirits.
Dancing can also bring people closer. Social dances like tango and Latin need us to move with others, which improves our sense of social connection according to IBSA, a Swiss scientific organization. Through eye contact, people feel more trust and closeness.
▲ Studies show that depression (抑郁症) often has to do with sadness about the past or worries about the future. Dancing helps people focus on the present, connect with their bodies, and free their minds for a while, as reported by Psych Central, a mental health news website. When we dance, we stop overthinking and start feeling. This makes it an excellent way to enjoy the present moment without even trying.
Lauren Helper, an American social worker, says dancing is a helpful way to reduce stress. It can be any form—whether it’s moving alone around the house to a song or going out dancing with friends. “The most important thing is that the movement is fun. You don’t need to be a perfect dancer. Just turn on some music, move your body, and enjoy the moment. That’s the real magic of dance.” she told Psych Central.
26. What can help you the most when you are sad according to the study?
A. Attending a concert. B. Talking to a friend. C. Dancing to music. D. Riding a bike.
27. Why do people take up dancing after work?
A. To kill time. B. To learn new skills. C. To make more friends. D. To fight against bad feelings.
28. Which sentence can be put in the “ ▲ ” in the fifth paragraph?
A. But dancing is not only good for our body.
B. Dancing can also help people forget their problems.
C. Dancing also helps people let go of bad feelings.
D. But dancing is not the only way to feel better.
29. What is the correct structure of the passage?
A. B. C. D.
30. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. A New Way to Do Sports B. The Best Hobby for Workers
C. How to Dance Correctly D. Why Dancing Helps with Feelings
【答案】26. C 27. D 28. C 29. A 30. D

Children know that summer is probably the most interesting of all seasons. However, experts say this season is the most dangerous, especially for children aged 14 and under. In a study of children’s safety in the US, researchers found that nearly half of the injury-related (与受伤相关的) deaths among children happened in summer.
Experts are not surprised by the study’s results. They always know summer is a dangerous season for children. During the summer, children are out of school and spend more time outdoors. They are more likely to get into an accident or be injured. “While we encourage children to be active and spend more time outdoors, they need to understand the importance of safety,” said an expert.
To help children stay safe, the “Make It a Safe Kids’ Summer” Campaign was started during Safe Kids Week, from 7 May to 13 May.
Here are some important summer safety tips from the campaign.
•Always wear your seat belt.
