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."

A mind map is basically a tool that connects information around a central subject.It can help you make a knowledge bank to solve problems.A student recently said, "I thought mind mapping would take a lot of time to do but in fact it saves me time.(1)
How to make a mind map?Now follow these steps for making wonderful mind maps.
(2 ) Why?Because starting in the center lets your brain spread out in all directions and express itself more freely and naturally.
Use a picture for your central idea.Why?Because a picture is worth a thousand words and helps you use your imagination.(3) It helps get your attention and makes you work excitedly!
Connect your main branches (分支) to the central picture and connect your second﹣and﹣third﹣level branches to the first and second levels,etc.Why?Because your brain works by connection(4) If you connect the branches,you will understand and remember a lot more easily.
Use one key word every line.Why?Because every single key word can make you learn more clearly and easily.
(5) Why?Because each picture,just like the central picture,is also worth a thousand words.So,if you have 10 pictures in your mind map,they are already worth 10,000 words of notes.
Try to use more colors.Why?Because colors are as exciting to your brain as pictures.Color adds great energy to your creative thinking,and is fun!

Every living thing needs to reproduce.Reproducing means creating more members of your group.In order for plants to reproduce,they have to spread their seeds (种子) to other areas.Plants have developed all kinds of ways to do this.
The simplest way is gravity.Many seeds are inside of fruit.When a piece of fruit gets too heavy,it falls from a tree to the ground.Sometimes animals will pick up the fruit and drop it in another area.That helps move the seed even farther away.Apples spread this way.
Other plants use wind to spread their seeds.Dandelions are a good example of this.Dandelion seeds are so light that when wind blows,it carries dandelion seeds to new places.Maple (枫树) seeds also use wind.Their seeds are connected with long,thin leaves that look like wings.When the seed falls from the tree,its "wings" help it fly farther from the tree.
Some animals help plants spread their seeds.The animals eat the seeds.While the seed is in the animal's body,it stays whole.when the seed leaves the animal,it's in a new place.
Ants also help spread seeds.Some seeds have a special smell that attracts ants.The ants bring the seeds back to their home,which of course is underground.They only eat part of the seed.They leave the rest of the seed underground.After that,the seed can start growing.
