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 USA, have found that sad movies can make people happier.
They published 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 separated. 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.
According to the result of the survey, 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 has 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 them more.”
4．According to the scientists at Ohio State University, sad movies can make people ________.
A．happier B．sadder C．more terrible
5．How many times did the students answer questions from the scientists during the movie?

6．What does the underlined word “those” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A．feelings. B．lives. C．friends.
7．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 MovieC
If you are looking for an amazing place to visit in China, go to Hangzhou, Zhejiang.
Most people choose to go to West Lake first because it is the most famous place in Hangzhou. Around the
lake, there are many historical places, such as the Broken Bridge and Lingyin Temple (寺庙). The clear lake
water, green trees and fresh air all make visitors feel peaceful. It’s the best way for the tourists to ride a boat to
enjoy West Lake. “The brimming waves delight the eye on sunny days; the dimming hills present a rare view in a
rainy haze,” (水光潋滟晴方好，山色空蒙雨亦奇。) Su Shi once wrote the poem (诗) here.
Also, there are a lot of nice things to taste in Hangzhou. A kind of soup called pine mushroom soup (松茸
汤) is a good example, as it is light, fresh and soft. Pian Er Chuan (片儿川) is a popular kind of noodles. It fits
southern people’s tastes and it’s cheap. You can also try Longjing, a kind of green tea. It grows only in the hills of
Hangzhou. To make the food and drinks in Hangzhou more popular, the government has made good use of the
Internet. For example, it has put short videos of people cooking and eating online. At the same time, a comfortable
dining environment has also played a big role.
Hangzhou has long been a “paradise on Earth” because it’s a place of beauty and happiness. You should
really experience the amazing place yourself!
