If you feel sad or upset, remember not to watch a happy movie. A sad movie may be more suitable for you.
Some scientists at Ohio State University, the U.S., have found that sad movies can make people happier. They published their study in a magazine called Communication Research.
Scientists asked 361 college students to watch a sad movie called Atonement. The movie tells a story of two lovers who were separated. They died during World War II at the end of the movie. The 361 college students answered questions from the scientists before, after and three times during the movie to find out their different feelings, including sadness.
According to the result of the survey, scientists found out that people felt better after watching the sad movie. Scientists believed this was because the movie made them think about their own lives and relationships. Compared to those of the unlucky lovers in the movie, their lives were full of hope.
“I want to live my life to the fullest, and this movie has made me think a lot,” one student wrote.
Silvia Knobloch-Westerwick, the leader of the study, explained that bad moods (情绪) would make people more thoughtful. “Good moods are generally a sign that everything is fine. You don’t have to worry, and you don’t have to think about problems in your life,” she said. “But bad emotions, like sadness, make you feel terrible about your situation. Therefore, seeing a sad movie may make you feel bad, but that will cause you to think more about your own close relationships and value them more.”
8. The scientists asked the college students to watch Atonement ________.
A. to help them make more friends
B. to make them feel better about themselves
C. to find out how they felt after watching it
D. to encourage them to share their feelings
9. How many times did the students answer questions from the scientists?
A. Six times. B. Five times. C. Four times. D. Three times.
10. What does the underlined word “those” in paragraph 4 refer to?
A. stories. B. feelings. C. friends. D. lives.
11. What is the best title for this passage?
A. Feeling Sad? Watch a Sad Movie
B. Feeling Lonely? Find True Love
C. Feeling Bad? See a Happy Film
D. Feeling Down? Think about Others
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. A

On the early morning of December 17, the Chang’e-5 lunar probe (月球探测器) landed safely on the grasslands in Inner Mongolia, meaning the Chang’e-5 mission (任务) ended successfully.
Chang’e-5 was launched from the Wenchang Space Launch Center in Hainan Province on November 24, 2020. On December 1, the probe got to the moon. During the stay on the moon, it collected 1,731 grams of rock and soil samples (样品). On December 3, our national flag was shown on the moon. After that, the probe was ready to go home.
China is no stranger to lunar exploration (探月) programs. Over the years, it has sent a number of increasingly challenging missions to the moon. One of the most famous missions was the historic landing of Chang’e-4 spacecraft on the moon’s far side in 2019. As Chang’e-5 reached a new area of the moon, this launch successfully pushed the limits (极限) even further. It’s no doubt a great step forward for the space industry.
This is a truly historic event for China’s space program, making China the third nation in the world to bring samples back from the moon. The success has also made Chang’e-5 the first spacecraft to bring back samples from the moon since 1976 when a Russian spaceship brought back 170.1 grams of samples to the earth. This was no easy task, but China has made it.
12. How long did the whole Chang’e-5 mission last?
A. About half a month. B. Around 10 days.
C. Over a month. D. More than 20 days.
13. The underlined word “launched” in paragraph 2 means ________ in Chinese.
A. 回收 B. 发射 C. 发明 D. 销毁
14. Paragraph 3 mainly talks about ________.
A. the importance of space exploration
B. the difficulty in lunar exploration
C. the future of China’s space program
D. the progress in China’s moon missions
15. In which part of a newspaper can we find the passage?
A. CULTURE B. TRAVEL C. SCIENCE D. SPORT
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. D 15. C
【解析】

【13题详解】
词义猜测题。分析“Chang’e-5 was launched from the Wenchang Space Launch Center in Hainan Province on November 24, 2020.”可知，2020年11月24日，嫦娥五号在海南省文昌航天发射中心发射升空。所以launched的意思是“发射”，故选B。
【14题详解】
段落大意题。根据“China is no stranger to lunar exploration (探月) programs. Over the years, it has sent a number of increasingly challenging missions to the moon.”可知，中国对探月计划并不陌生， 多年来中国向月球发射了一系列越来越具有挑战性的任务。选项D“中国登月计划的进展”符合大意，故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。本文主要向我们介绍航空航天方面的情况，所以最有可能在科学版块看到这篇文章，故选C。
