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 (药理学) offers an abundance 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 loose from an unwanted mood. These can be just as useful as drugs, and have the added benefit of being nonpoisonous. So next time you feel out of sorts, don’t head for the drug-store—try the following approach.
    Of all the mood-altering self-help techniques, aerobic (增氧) 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, compare favorably to drugs as a mood-raiser. Physical exertion (努力) such as housework, however, does little. The key is aerobic exercise—running, cycling, walking, swimming or other repetitive and sustained activities that boost the heart rate, increase circulation and improve the body’s utilization of oxygen. Do them for at least 20 minutes a session three to five times a week.
"Feel out of sorts", as it is used in the second paragraph, could best be replaced by______.
选项 A、put things in order
B、are in a bad mood
C、search for tranquilizers
D、want a mood-raiser
答案B
解析 本题是一道句子含义类问题。问第二段中的句子feel out of sorts是什么意思。根据文章上下文，也许对付这些坏情绪的最好方法是把它们讲出来，尽管有时没有人听。现代药理学提供了许许多多的镇静剂、抗抑郁剂和抗焦虑剂。然而，许多人并未意识到科学家们已经发现了多种有效的非药物疗法，可以将你从不良情绪中解脱出来。这些疗法与药物疗法具有同等的作用，并且另有无毒性的好处。所以，下次你若情绪不佳，不要去药店，可按照如下方法试一试。因此，我们可以推知本题的正确答案应是B“情绪低落”。
