问题     Moods, say the experts, are emotions that tend to become fixed, influencing one’s outlook 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 of tranquilizers (镇静剂) , antidepressants and anti-anxiety drugs. What many people don’t realize, however, is that scientists have discovered the effectiveness of several non-drug approaches to make you free from an unwanted mood. These can be just as useful as drugs, and have the added benefit of being non-poisonous. So next time you feel out of sorts, don’t head for the drugstore, try the following approach.
    Of all the mood-altering self-help techniques, aerobic(增氧简体的) exercise seems to be the most efficient 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 compared favorably to drugs as a mood-raiser. Physical exertion such as housework, however, does little. The key is aerobic exercise—running, cycling, walking, swimming or other repetitive and tamed activities that boost the heart rate, increase circulation(血液循环) and improve the body’s utilization(利用) of oxygen. Do them for at least twenty minutes a session, three or five times a week.
"Feel out of sorts" in the second paragraph could be best replaced by "______".

选项 A、put things in order
B、be in a bad mood
C、search for tranquilizers
D、need a mood-raiser

答案B

解析 文章第二段提到有些专家认为运动对于克服一些不良情绪的效果比药物要好一些,紧接着就建议在feel out of sorts后要多运动,而不是求助于药物。因此可推断出该 短语的意思是“感到情绪不好”,选择B选项。
