Peopledophysicalexerciseaspartoftheirhealthylifestyletogetstrongerandhealthier.
There are three basic modes of physical exercise: flexibility exercise helps the human body in general or its
part in particular to be able to reach farther and bend better;aerobic exercise helps the body work hard for a long
time;anaerobicexercisemakesthearmsandlegsstronger.
It has long been known that exercise is not only good for your body,but also for your mind. According to
researchers,gymnasts are more likely to be emotionally stable,football players the most outgoing and swimmers
thehappiest.
The psychological study,which was carried out by experts, also revealed that sports can also offer clues to a
person's attitude to charity, reading habits and even their voting intentions.Boxers,for example,are most likely to
focus onmaterial possessionsin life. Meanwhile,runners tendto be outgoing people who love being the centreof
attention. Walkers, a group that includes those who enjoy wandering and cross-country races,are least concerned
aboutotherpeopleandlikedoingthingsbythemselveswithoutinterruptionfromothers.Thosewhoplaychessare
confident when they face challenges and trouble.Those who swim tend to be tidy and
charitable.However,according to Mind Lab,61 percent of adults are fond of helping others regardless of their
choiceofsports.
The results from this study also show that no matter what kind of person you are,there is the right kind of
exerciseforyou.

Consumers in the U.S.spend billions of dollars a year on gifts wrapping.Two colleagues and I wondered
whether all that time and effort is actually worth it. So we conducted three experiments to explore the impact of
giftwrapping.
In the first experiment,we involved 180 students,who were given a gift-a coffee cup with the logo of one of
twoNBAbasketballteams,thelocalMiamiHeatorrival(竞争对手)OrlandoMagic.Everyparticipantwasafan
of the Heat and they obviously didn't support the Magic.We gave half of the students a desirable gift,while the
others received something they disliked.Finally, half of the gifts were wrapped neatly,while the rest looked
sloppy(凌乱的).
We found that those who received a sloppily wrapped gift liked their present significantly more than those
whoreceivedaneatlywrappedgift-regardlessofwhichcuptheygot.
To understand why,we asked another set of students to report their expectations about either a neatly or
sloppily wrapped gift.Results showed that expectations were significantly higher for the neatly wrapped
gifts.However,receivers of the neatly wrapped gift reported that it failed tolive up to their expectations,while
thosewhogotthesloppilywrappedgiftsaiditsurpassed(超过)theirexpectations.
In our final experiment, we surveyed 261 adults and asked them to imagine receiving either a neatly or
sloppily wrappedgift.This time we instructedhalf ofthemto imaginethe gift wasfrom aclosefriend,while the
otherhalfbelieveditcamefromanacquaintance(熟人).Thenwerevealedthegiftandaskedthemtorateit.
When it came from a close friend,receivers ended upliking the sloppily wrapped gift more. However,for the
giftfromanacquaintance,receiverspreferreditwhenitwasneatlywrapped.Thisoccursbecausetheseparticipants
usedthewrappingasacueforhowmuchthegift-givervaluestheirrelationship.
So if you're stressed over gift wrapping this holiday season, consider saving yourself effort and money by
wrappingyourfriends'giftshaphazardly(随意地).Butforsomeoneyoudon'tknowquiteaswell,it'sprobably

After I pointed to the egg stains,Jack angrily said, “Bad kids.”Then, as usual,he walked to the bench below
the front bedroom window and sat down to read his storybook.Jack liked reading there each morning.While Jack
was reading, I carried a mop and placed a ladder on the front wall beside the bedroom window.I was ready to
