Not long ago, I opened an interesting e-mail from Jennifer, a friend of mine. “I’ve realized I want to be around people who make me happy,” she wrote, “I’ve been seeing how I feel after communicating with different people and making a mental list of who I feel good about. And you’re on my list.”
Then she invited me — and 11 other women— to a “Movie Night” to be held every six weeks at her house. We’d chat, eat, and watch feel-good movies. She made it clear in her invitation that there was no stress to show up to all or any movie nights. Wonderful! I e-mailed her back immediately. I was in.
Later, Jennifer told me she had some puzzled reactions to her invitation. Though all the women were willing to join, some said they didn’t see themselves as cheerful people. “I’ve told them they didn’t have to be cheerful around me all the time. I invited them because they made me feel happy,” she says.
Research shows that gatherings such as Jennifer’s make sense. In a US study, researchers measured(测量) the happiness of 4739 people at regular intervals (间隔) over 20 years. The study found that a person’s happiness depends on(取决于) the happiness of people they connect with. Amazingly, it also found that happiness spreads not only between direct friends, but also among friends of your friends’ friends! And those good feelings seem to be the most contagious (传染性的) among friends of the same sex.
“People with more supportive friends are less likely to develop sadness,” says Dr Toupey Luft, a psychologist in Penticyon, British Columbia. “Though you can’t choose your family or workmates, you do have control over friendships.” With a little effort, you can add more positive(乐观的) relationships to your social circle. Here’s how…
1.How many people did Jennifer invite?
A. 1 B. 11 C. 12 D. 13
2.What kind of things can you do on Jennifer’s movie night?
A. Gathering and measuring happiness among friends.
B. Chatting, eating and watching feel-good movies.
C. Being cheerful all the time.
D. Showing up stress.
3.What do the underlined words mean?
A. 有意义 B. 有鉴赏力 C. 有感觉 D. 制造气氛
4.Which of the following is right?
A. Jennifer was puzzled with her invitation.
B. All the women who were invited are cheerful people.
C. Jennifer invited people who are cheerful around her all the time.
D. People with more supportive friends seem to be more positive than people who don’t.
5.Can you guess what will be talked about in the following passage?
A. Why it is important to pick friends who make you feel good.
B. How to make friends who make you feel good.
C. What kinds of friends you should not make.
D. How you can find your social circle.

Sitting on a chair all day in school can make anyone want to move around. So, more and more teachers are letting students have a ball. By sitting on exercise balls instead of chairs, teachers find students' posture (姿势) and attention improve.
Dottie Pownall, a fifth-grade teacher in West Virginia, USA, has been using balls as chairs since December 2008. "The students love them", she says. Pownall took a survey of her students. She found that 80% of the students thought sitting on the balls helped them pay more attention to what they were learning.
The teacher, Pisa Witt, felt so strongly about the use of balls as chairs, she started Witt Fitt. This company encourages the use of the balls. And the company educates not only teachers but also students on how to use them. "Our products are used in 24 states, three provinces in Canada, Puerto Rico ('波多黎各) and Japan," says Witt. "Research shows that sitting on the balls makes them sit up straighter. You can slouch (低头垂肩地坐) on a ball," says Witt, "but it feels awful." Because the students are moving, their blood (血液) increases. That carries more oxygen (氧气 to the brain (大脑), so the kids have more energy and can focus longer.
"Furthermore, they're fun." says Pownali.
1. What will happen if a student sits on a chair all day in school? The student will _________.
A. pay more attention to his lessons B. be fun
C. like to move around D. sit up straighter
2. How long has Dottie Pownall used the balls?
A. About three years. B. Only one year.
C. In 2008. D. Since he was a fifth-grade teacher.
3. In how many countries are the balls used as the students' chairs?
A. Four. B. Three. C. Two. D. One.
4.Teachers choose balls instead of chairs because sitting on balls helps the kids___________.
A. improve the students' posture and attention B. slouch on the chairs
C. have fun D. Both A and C are correct answers.
5.Which is better for kids to study in class, sitting on a chair or sitting on a ball?
A. Sitting on a chair. B. Sitting on a ball.
C. They are the same. D. We don't know.
