emotions (情感). How you feel is controlled by many things. Your emotions can be affected by your
personality, by the actions of others and by events around you. Perhaps you don"t know your emotions
can be influenced by the weather as well.
People often say they feel good when the sun is shining and sad when it is cloudy. In fact, sunlight
makes us feel good. When sunlight hits our skins, our bodies produce a vitamin. Vitamins are natural
chemicals (化学物质) which we all need to stay healthy. Sunlight helps our bodies produce vitamin
D. Vitamin D helps our bodies make a special chemical. This special chemical affects our brains (大脑)
and makes us feel happy. For example, there are long, dark winters of little sunlight in Sweden and
Norway, so many people in these countries often feel sad. Without much sunlight, their bodies produce
less vitamin D. Without enough vitamin D, their bodies make less of this special chemical which makes
them feel good. To help the people in these countries feel better, special "sunrooms" with artificial (人
造的) lights have been built. People can go there and get "sunlight" for an hour or two!
The weather can also affect people"s emotions in other ways. Hot weather can make people angry
because people feel uncomfortable when they are hot. In the same way, rain can make people angry
because being wet can be unpleasant. As you can see, the weather can have an effect on the chemicals
which control our brains. Through these ways, the weather can influence our emotions. Sadly, while
the weather can change us, we can hardly change the weather.
B. Actions of others.
C. Personality.
D. Age.
B. It makes us worried by affecting our brains.
C. It is needed by us all to keep fit.
D. It is in the sunlight.
B. We will be happy when we are caught in the rain.
C. All people in Norway and Sweden feel sad in winter.
D. The more vitamin D you have, the happier you"ll be.
B. The Weather Influences People"s Emotions
C. People Need More Vitamin D
D. We Can Hardly Change the Weather

with lots of ways we can make learning more interesting. Perhaps most importantly of all, it"s also
more interactive (互动).
Some kinds of tools (工具) have been developed. They make the 21st century learning experience
much more interactive and interesting. Attracting the attention of students is always difficult, but these
tools have made a big difference in how pupils learn.
For example, an interactive whiteboard is different from a traditional chalkboard. It allows the teachers
to show images and provide sound as well. If you imagine a large computer screen with colorful images
and sound added in, you can see why so many pupils are drawn in by what they see and hear in a modern
classroom.
Various audio (声音的) tools also help to make sure that everyone can hear what the teacher has to
say. In the past, if a teacher said something that a child missed, perhaps the child was too timid (胆小的)
or nervous to ask them to repeat it. Now they are less likely to miss out simply because they"re sitting too
far away from the teacher to hear them.
The 21st century classroom is able to teach pupils more than one thing. For example, imagine a history
lesson is given in a modern classroom. How is it different from a classroom setting in the past? The answer
is simple. The students will not only learn about history itself, they will also learn how to use the modern
equipment (设备) that helps the teacher get their message across.
Modern technology can make teaching and learning easier. Student response (应答) system makes
everyone able to express their opinions or answers without having to speak up. Since everyone can do it,
the teacher can see who needs more help in other ways.
It"s clear that this kind of classroom technology is making a great difference in modern classrooms.

The weather is getting hotter. You are thirsty playing basketball or riding home from school. A cold drink may be just the thing. But be careful what you are drinking. Something that looks cool may not be good for your health. There are plenty of "energy drinks" on the market. Most of them have beautiful colors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great! But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine (咖啡因) in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much. Caffeine makes your heart beat fast. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee has limited (限 制) its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or tea. Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks.
