25、In northern China during spring, big sandstorms often make trouble for people. Sandstorms usually happen in spring. They have happened in more than 10 provinces in northern China this year. People in southern China don’t have to worry about this kind of bad weather. Most of the sand comes from the north of China. In northern China, lots of places have few trees and don’t get much rain. When there aren’t many trees, the ground can’t keep enough water. Over the years, the ground dries up and turns into sand. When spring comes and the ice melts, the ground becomes loose. Strong winds take the loose sand into the sky. Besides, in northeast China, there is some vast desert.
Sandstorms are bad for people’s health. If people breathe in too much sand, they will cough or have serious illnesses. Sandstorms also give farmers lots of problems. Sometimes their sheep get lost in the storms and never come back home. The winds also tear the farmers’ houses down.
What can you do to stop sandstorms? Here’s a piece of advice. Ask your parents to help you plant some trees in spring. If you see people cutting down too many trees, tell them about the dangers of sandstorms, and ask your government to stop them.

26、Scientists are making an effort to find out how our feelings are affected. How you feel is decided by many things, such as your personality (性格) and the actions of others. You may be surprised to know the weather can also affect your feelings.
People often say they feel good when it’s sunny and sad when it’s cloudy. In fact, sunlight makes us feel happy. When sunlight hits our skins, our bodies produce vitamin D (维生素D). Vitamin D helps our bodies make a special chemical which affects our brains and makes us happy. For example, the winter in Sweden and Norway is long and dark with little sunlight, so many people there often feel sad. To help the people in these countries feel happier, special “sunrooms” are built for people to get “sunlight” for an hour or two!
The weather can affect our feelings in other ways as well. Rain can make people angry because being wet makes people unhappy. In the same way, hot weather can make people angry because people don’t feel comfortable when feeling hot. As you can see, the weather can influence the chemicals which control our brains. Through these ways, the weather can affect our feelings. Sadly, while the weather can change us, we cannot change the weather.
【1】Why does sunlight make us feel happy?
A.Because sunlight hits our skins and we feel warm.
B.Because people can get “sunlight” in special “sunrooms”.
C.Because vitamin D helps make a special chemical which affects our brains and makes us happy.
D.Because vitamin D affects our brains and makes us happy.
【2】What is the purpose of special “sunrooms” in Sweden and Norway?
A.To help people feel better.
B.To help people get warmer.
C.To help people feel sad.
