    Different weather makes people feel different. It influences health, intelligence and feelings. In August, it's hot and wet in the southern part of the USA．People there have heart trouble and other kinds of health problems during this month. In the northeast and the middle-west, it is very hot sometimes and very cold sometimes. People in these states have more heart trouble after the weather changes in February or March.

The weather can also influence intelligence. For example, in a 1983 study by scientists showed that the IQ of a group of students was very high when a very strong wind came, but after the strong wind, their IQ was 10% lower. The wind can help people have more intelligence. Very hot weather, on the other hand, can make it lower. Students in many schools of the United States often do worse on exams in the hot months of the year(July and August).

Weather also has a strong influence on people's feelings. Winter may be a bad time for thin people. They usually feel cold these months. They might feel unhappy during cold weather. But big people may have a hard time in hot summer. At about 18°C, people become stronger.

Low air pressure may make people forgetful. People leave more bags on buses and in shops on low-pressure days. There is "good weather" for work and health. People feel best at a temperature of about 18°C．

Are you feeling sad, tired or forgetful today? It may be the weather's fault.

19．________ can have a bad effect on health.

A．Hot and wet weather B．Feelings C．Air pressure D．High intelligence

20．People may have more intelligence when ________ comes.

A．a rain B．very hot weather C．a wind D．low air pressure

21．In "good weather" of 18°C, ________.

A．people are very forgetful B．people can't do their work well

C．thin people feel cold D．people are in better health

    “I don’t like my parents. They always tell me I should do this, and should not do that. It sometimes makes me angry,” said Wang Ping, a middle school student in Guangzhou. Do you have the same problem? Perhaps your parents had the same problem when they were your age long ago. Why does it seem that some parents are not so friendly in their children’s eyes?

One of the biggest problems is when someone becomes a parent, he/she likes worrying about things. They worry about everything about you from the time you were born. They do a lot for you, though something would make you angry, because they care about you and worry about you. They worry about your choice of friends, food you eat, your work at school, how much sleep you get, etc. All these things are part of your life. They want you to grow up healthily and happily.

So how can you make things easier on yourself? It’s easier than you think. Just make sure your parents know what you’re doing. Get them to know your friends. Phone them if you stay somewhere else late so that your parents don’t call every hospital in the phone book looking for you. Say sorry to them when you make mistakes. Take responsibility (责任) for what you have done. Talk about your ideas with them. They may talk about theirs with you.

Most of all, try to think about why your parents do this or do that. They are still practicing being parents and need help you can give them. Someday, when you become a parent, they may be able to help you know how to get on with your children.

A．tell our friends B．tell the teacher

C．say sorry to our parents D．make a telephone call to our parents

    Once there was a man traveling in a faraway village. As he was passing the elephants, he suddenly stopped. He found that these huge elephants were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg. No chains(锁链), no cages. It was clear that the elephants could, at any time, break away from these ropes, but for some reason, they did not.

He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and didn't try to get away. “Well，” the trainer said, “when they are very young and much smaller, we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it's enough to hold them. As they grow up, they still believe they cannot break away. They believe the rope can hold them, so they never try to break free.”

How could it be? These animals could at any time break free from these ropes. But because they were always stuck right where they were, they believed they couldn't.

Just like the elephants, how many of us go through life believing that we cannot do something, just because we failed at it once before?

________. We should never give up the struggle(斗争) in life.

A．Because they think they cannot.

B．Because they are too old to do it.

C．Because they like their living places.

D．Because they get on well with the trainer.

28．How did the man feel after he heard what the trainer said?

A．Moved. B．Surprised. C．Angry. D．Nervous.
