2．Did your mother ever say you'll feel better after a good cry？It turns out Mom is right as usual-crying really is healthy.What's more，letting yourself feel blue and accepting those feelings will help you feel better in the long run，according to a new research.
In three separate studies both online and in a lab，researchers at UC Berkeley evaluated the responses from 1，300 adults regarding their psychological（心理的）health and emotional well-being（幸福感）.In one study，1，000 participants filled out a survey evaluating how they felt about the statement，"I tell myself I shouldn't be feeling the way that I'm feeling."Those who agreed with the statement scored lower on tests of well-being..In other words，letting yourself feel bad is better for your mind and mood than trying to control negative thoughts.
"We found that people who habitually accept their negative emotions experience fewer negative emotions，which adds to better psychological health，"said study senior author Iris Mauss，PhD，an associate professor of psychology at UC Berkeley in an article on the university's website.
In a society where the importance to be happy is emphasized daily on the other social media platforms，letting yourself be down in the dumps can be tough.Just remember that true happiness isn't always what people say it is.
"It turns out that how we approach our own negative emotional reactions is really important for our well-being，"said study lead author Brett Ford，PhD，an assistant professor of psychology at the University of Toronto."People who accept these emotions without judging or trying to change them are able to deal with their stress more successfully."
So next time someone tells you to"turn that frown upside down"，ignore them.Embrace your inner feelings for a while.
（1）How did the researchers carry out one of the studies？
A．They gave the participants different tests.
B．They compared their own thoughts with others.
C．They studied the participants' everyday experiences.
D．They compared the participants' thoughts and their feelings.
（2）What does the underlined part "be down in the dumps"in Paragraph 4 mean？
A．Be lonely.
B．Be depressed.
C．Be positive.
D．Be comfortable.
（3）What did Brett Ford try to show in Paragraph 5？
A．It is better for people to accept negative emotions.
B．We should never try to change others' thoughts.
C．People who accept themselves are happier.
D．Positive people tend to be less stressed.
（4）What would be the best title for the text？
A．Turn your frown upside down
B．Crying is good for our health
C．Stop having bad feelings.
D．Stop feeling the way that you're feeling组卷：8引用：6难度：0.5

8．It took place in a teachers family.One day，Ben was playing basketball in the living room after school，when he accidentally threw the ball at a vase sitting on the shelf.The vase dropped to the floor and a large piece broke off.What made Ben more upset was that the vase was not a common decoration but an antique，which was handed down through generations from the 18th century.It was also his mother's favourite possession.To cover his terrible action，the terrified boy glued the pieces together hastily and put the vase back to its place.
As the mother herself dusted the vase every day，she naturally noticed the cracks（裂纹）that evening.To her surprise，the repair work was actually very good.At dinner time，she asked her boy if he broke the vase.Fearing punishment，the suddenly inspired boy said that a neighbor's cat jumped in from the window and he couldn't drive it away no matter how hard he tried.It raced around the living room and finally knocked the vase off its shelf.His mother was quite clear that her son was lying，for all the windows were closed before she left for work each morning and opened after she returned.However，in the face of her son's nervous eyes and the suspicious looks of the other family members.Ben's mother remained calm.She realized she shouldn't just simply blame and punish her son for lying.She came up with another idea.
Before going to bed，the boy found a note from his mother in his room，asking him to go to the study at once.The boy thought he would now be punished but，as he had already lied，he was determined to deny everything to the end，no matter how angry his mum became.
In the study，calmly bathed in the light，his mothers face showed no sign of anger.On seeing her son push open the door and cautiously enter，she took a chocolate box out of a drawer and gave him one.
