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 drug-store, try the following approach.
   Of all the mood-altering self-help techniques, aerobic 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 of oxygen. Do them for at least 20 minutes a session, three of 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 根据第二段最后一句“So next time you feel out of sorts,don’t head for the drug-store,try the following approach.”可知,feel out of sorts意为“心情不佳”。B项“心情不好”符合题意。故选B。
