单项选择题

Some people do not like anything to be out of place. They are never late for work; they return their books to the library on time; they remember people′ s birthdays and they pay their bills as soon as they arrive. Mr. Brown is such a person. Mr. Brown works in a bank, and lives on his own. His sister lives in the next town with her husband, and her son, Mark. Mr. Brown doesn′ t see his sister or her family from one year to the next, but he sends them Christmas cards, and he hasn′ t forgotten one of Mark′ s seventeen birthdays. Last week Mr. Brown had quite a surprise. He drove home from the bank at the usual time; driving neither too slowly nor too fast, he parked his car where he always parked it, out of the way of other cars, and he went inside to make his evening meal. Just then there was a knock at the door. Mr. Brown opened the door to find a policeman standing on the doorstep.
"What have I done wrong?" Mr. Brown asked himself. "Have I driven on the wrong side of the road? Has there been some trouble at the bank? Have I forgotten to pay an important bill?"
"Hello, uncle," said the policeman, "My name′ s Mark. "

单项选择题Moods, say the experts, are feelings that are likely to become fixed, having effects on one′ s out-look ( way of looking at things ) for hours, days or even weeks. That′ s great if your mood is a pleasant one, but a problem if you are sad, anxious, angry or simply lonely.
Perhaps the best way to deal with such moods is to talk them out; sometimes, though, there is no one to listen. Modern pharmacology (药物学) offers a lot tranquilizers ( 镇定剂 ) and anti-anxiety drugs. What many people don′ t realize, however, is that scientists have discovered the effectiveness of several non-drug methods to make you free from an unwanted mood. These can be just as useful as drugs, and have the added benefit of being nonpoisonous. So next time you feel out of sorts, don′ t head for the drug store--try the following method.
Of all the mood-changing self-help techniques, aerobic exercise seems to be the best cure for a bad mood. "If you could keep the exercise, you′ d be in high spirits, "says Kathryn Lance, author of Running for Health and Beauty.
Researchers have explained biochemical and various other changes that make exercise compare favorably to drugs as mood-raiser. Physical work such as housework, however, does little. The key is aerobic exercise--running, cycling, walking, swimming, or other repetitive and sustained activities that increase the heart rate and circulation (循环), and improve the body′ s use of oxygen. Do them for at least 20 minutes a time, three to five times a week.
