5. In time of anger, do yourself a favor by releasing it in a quiet place so that you won't be hurt by its flames; in time of sadness, do yourself a favor by sharing it with your friends so as to change a bad mood into a cheerful one; in time of tiredness, do yourself a favor by getting a good sleep.

New research has shown that you might not just be feeling blue; you may also be seeing it differently. Your mood may affect how you see the world around you, according to a new study. A team of researchers has proved that sadness could have an effect on the way we see colors.
The team, led by psychology researcher Christopher Thorstenson of the University of Rochester, found that people who had a sad mood were less accurate in identifying colors on the blue-yellow axis (軸), compared to people who weren’t feeling sad.
“We were already deeply familiar with how often people use color terms to describe common phenomena, like mood, even when these concepts seem unrelated,” Thorstenson said in a statement. “We thought maybe a reason why these metaphors (比喻) appear was that there really was a connection between mood and identifying colors in a different way.”
Thorstenson and his team are not the first to identify a link between a depressed mood and a difference in recognition. In 2010, Emanuel Bubl and his team at Albert Ludwigs University Freiburg in Germany first proved a link between mood and identifying colors. This was supported by a 2013 paper by Johnson Fam of the University of Singapore.
The team conducted two studies. In the first, 127 participants were chosen randomly to watch one of two video clips, which had been proved in previous studies to feel either sadness or amusement. They didn’t do that in a specific order. The entire group was then tasked with identifying the colors in 48 continued color changes. The group that had been shown the sad clip was measurably worse at identifying colors along the blue-yellow axis.
For the second study, 130 participants were randomly assigned to watch either a sad clip or a neutral (中性的) one. The sadness group showed reduced ability to identify colors along the blue-yellow axis than the neutral group.
1.If one ________, the colors he sees might be different from those in others’ eyes.
A. is in a good moodB. has an eye illness
C. attends a speechD. doesn’t feel happy
2.Who were the first to find out the link between mood and identifying colours?
A. Thorstenson and Johnson.B. Thorstenson and his team.
C. Johnson and his team.D. Emaneuel and his team.
3.The sadness group in the second study ________.
A. felt happy when watching the video
B. performed better than the other
C. were less able to identify some colours
D. could only identify blue and yellow
4.What does the underlined word in the fifth paragraph most probably mean?
A. In no specific place.
B. With no specific rule.
C. With no specific confidence.
D. At no specific time.

Generally speaking, college graduation brings both the satisfaction of academic achievement and the expectation of a well-paid job. But for 6,000 graduates at San Jose State this year, there’s uncertainty as they enter one of the worst job markets in decades.
Ryan Stewart has a freshly minted degree in religious studies, but no job prospects. “You look at everybody’s parents and neighbors, and they’re getting laid off and don’t have jobs,” said Stewart. “Then you look at the young people just coming into the workforce.., it’s just scary.”
When those graduates entered college, the future never looked brighter. But in the four years they’ve been here, the world outside has changed dramatically. “Those were the exciting times, lots of dot-com opportunities, exploding offers, students getting top dollar with lots of benefits,” said Cheryl Allmen-Vinnidge, of the San Jose State Career Centre. “Times have changed. It’s a new market. The job situation is grim (嚴(yán)峻的) now.” Cheryl Allmen-Vinnidge ought to know. She runs the San Jose State Career Centre, (it is) sort of a crossroads between college and the real world. Allmen-Vinnidge says students who do find jobs after college have done their homework. “The typical graduate who does have a job offer started working on it two years ago. They’ve postured themselves well during the summer. They’ve had several internships (實習(xí)) ,” she said. And they’ve majored in one of the few fields that are still hot—like chemical engineering, accounting or nursing—where average starting salaries have actually increased over last year. Other popular fields (like information systems management, computer science, and political science) have seen big declines in starting salaries.
Ryan Stewart (he had hoped to become a teacher) may just end up going back to school. “I’d like to teach college some day and that requires more schooling, which would be great in a bad economy,” he said.
It is true more students are able to receive college education. It is also true that they will have to face fiercer competition in the job market as they graduate. It becomes harder and harder for the current graduates to get a foothold in job markets, but many of them have no choice but to follow the beaten track. To some students a degree may not be ticket to instant wealth. For now, they can only hope its value will increase over time.
1.What can we learn about Ryan Stewart?
A. He is a teacher.
B. He majored in religious studies.
C. He found a job as soon as he graduated.
D. He is going back to school.
2.Which of the following did NOT happen in the past four years?
A. Dot-corn opportunities decreased.
B. Salaries in chemical engineering increased.
C. The number of teaching jobs increased.
D. The number of jobs with benefits decreased.
3.What does Cheryl Allmen-Vinnidge mean when she says students “have done their homework”?
A. The have found full-time jobs as their future career before graduation.
B. The have gone to summer school for further studies.
C. They are good students who have finished their homework on time.
D. They have spent time preparing themselves to find a job.
4.What’s the meaning of the phrase “get a foothold” in the last paragraph?
A. Gain a safe position from which further advances can be made.
B. Find a place where you can stand.
C. Walk with steady footsteps.
D. Make great progress in a particular area or in a certain job.
