阅读理解

When he was a little child, Andrew had a serious bad habit of sucking(吮吸) his fingers all day long, especially when he had nothing interesting to do: when he was sleeping, when watching TV, when sitting on the sofa and so on. At the beginning, his parents didn't think it was a bad habit.

Therefore, as time goes by, the boy couldn't give up his habit. Now, in his twenties, Andrew seems to have developed the bad habit into another one: he always bites his nails(指甲). He cannot stop biting his nails all the time. There're moments when he even doesn't know that he is doing it. He realized it was a problem and this worried him a lot. Some of his friends told him about this bad habit, and he stops for a while. But then, if he isn't busy doing something, he starts biting his nails again!

In fact, there're a lot of bacteria(细菌) in your nails and they can cause some disease. Also, the nails will become ugly and hard to recover. The worst thing is that this bad habit will bring the mental illness(心理疾病). If people cannot correct it in time, it can affect man's mental health.

What color of wearing do you like? Do you know "dopamine dressing (多巴胺穿搭)"? It's one of the most talked about fashion trends (趋势) for 2023 and 2024. However, is there any science behind this?

"Dopamine dressing" came out from the book Dress Your Best Life. An American fashion psychologist (心理学家) wrote this book in 2020. In the book, dopamine dressing is about wearing colorful clothing to get more dopamine.

Dopamine is a chemical in our brain. This kind of chemical makes people feel good. Usually our brain gives it out when we eat delicious food, play with our pets, listen to our favorite songs, after we exercise or when we win a game.

According to Science Focus Magazine, there are studies that show a relationship between the colors of the clothes we wear and how we act and feel. One study found that wearing red can bring better physical performance. It also showed bright colors can make people feel active. One more study showed that wearing green can help people relax because it is the color of nature. Yellow, the color of summer and warmth, can bring people happiness. But there are some problems with these studies, as people from different cultures have different ideas about dressing and colors.

In a word, "dopamine dressing" shows that we can wear colorful clothes to get more dopamine and feel good. Dressing is more than just a trend. It's also a way of showing ourselves. So, next time you're getting dressed, think about which colors will bring out yourself best.

 阅读下面材料,从方框中所给的A-E五个选项中选择正确的选项(其中一项是多余选项), 将其序号填入小题,并回答第35题。

Some people don't make any plans before taking a trip. They think it will be more exciting and have more fun with no plan. But in fact, it is not good. Making vacation plans is very important. 

{#blank#}1{#/blank#}For example, if you want to visit a place but you don't book a hotel, you may have no place to stay at night. So it is necessary to make plans to make your trip better. 

Before going to a place, look into things. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}Besides, remember to get information about what to do and how best to go to the place. You may miss out on seeing some things if you don't look into what you can see in the place. 

You won't forget things to take. You need to plan what things you have to buy and what things you need to put in your bag. For example, you arrive at the airport, but find that you forget to bring your plane ticket! {#blank#}3{#/blank#}

{#blank#}4{#/blank#} No one wants to spend more money than they want to. If you surf the Internet before you go on a vacation, you may find some cheap plane tickets and hotel rooms. 

You can save time. By planning your way and looking into transportation time, you can make the most out of your days and save time to do the other things you like. 

A. You can save a lot of money. 

B. You may be late for the plane. 

C. You can make everything go well. 

D. You can have more activities. 

E. So you can know what's there to see. 

Write a title (标题) for the passage. (请用约5个词回答){#blank#}5{#/blank#}
