1、How northern Europeans beat the winter blues Ask a child from northern Europe to draw two pictures—one on a rainy day and a second in the sunshine—and this is what you will get: in the first, as raindrops fall from the top of the page, the man behind the window has an unhappy expression. When a yellow sun sends out some light from the corner, the man is smiling. Northern Europeans associate rain with sadness and sunshine with happiness. They think this is true because they are so aware of how their environment affects them. ___1___In October 2019, a group of researchers examined the influence of different daily weather factors, including temperature, wind and sunlight, on 1,200 participants. The conclusion was that good or bad weather had little effect on people’s feelings.___2___ A person who is upset on dark or cold days suffers from a negative mood(情绪), and he will be likely to experience a sad winter. This is the basis of an illness called Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). ___3___ AniKalayjian, professor of psychology at Fordham University, advises that we should take steps to strengthen the brain’s system against weather-driven mood changes. Research on SAD has been focused on the brain’s response to darkness and light. When our eyes detect darkness, the brain gives off melatonin, which starts sleep cycles. ___4___It takes over to help us wake up and feel better when we detect light. “We can encourage people to take charge of their feelings,” says Kalayjian. “We tell them to leave the computers and t he indoor games and get out there in the sun. ___5___” A day of rain can potentially destroy your plan and affect your mood. But as the Scottish comedian Billy Connolly once said: “There is no such thing as bad weather, only the wrong clothing.” A. Yet that link has no scientific basis. B. It is seriously doubted among the people who suffer from SAD. C. It affects about10% of the population of northern Europe each year. D. Another chemical called serotonin, however, can make people happy. E. That’s when peo ple can recharge their serotonin and get a better mood. F. Most studies prove that a negative feeling is associated with bad weather. G. They determined that people actually differ in their sensitivity to weather changes. 32、You may think that English dictionaries have been used for many, many centuries.
