It influences health, intelligence and feelings.
     In August, it is very hot and wet in the southern part of the U.S. People there have heart trouble and other kinds of health problems during this month. In the Northeast and the Middle West, it is very hot in summer and very cold in winter. People in these states have more heart trouble when the weather changes in February or March.
     The weather can also influence intelligence. For example, in a 1983 report by scientists, the IQ of a group of students was very high when a very strong wind came, but after the strong wind, their IQ was 10% lower. The wind can help people have higher intelligence. Very hot weather, on the other hand, can make it lower. Students in many schools in the United States often get worse on exams in the hot months of the year (July and August).
     Weather also has a strong influence on people’s feelings. Winter may be a bad time for thin people. They usually feel cold during these months. They might feel unhappy during cold weather, too. But fat people may have a hard time in hot summer. At about 18℃, people become stronger.
     Low air pressure(气压) may make people forgetful. People leave more bags on buses and in shops on low-pressure days.
     Are you feeling sad, tired, or forgetful today? It may be the weather’s problem. 31. It is easy for people to have health problems in hot and wet summer, isn’t it?______________________________________32. When do the students in U.S. often get worse on exams?______________________________________33. Why may winter be a bad time for thin people?______________________________________34.

The erhu is a traditional Chinese instrument. It is the most popular of the huqin family, and it has a long history.The modern erhu developed from the xiqin, which was played by many ethnic minorities（少数民族） during the Tang Dynasty. In the Song Dynasty, musicians began to use the erhu to perform different kinds of music, and it became quite a popular instrument. With the rise of some forms of folk art, the art of the erhu developed quickly during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It became an important accompanying（伴奏） instrument in different folk music. At present, it is used in both traditional and modern music, such as in pop, rock and jazz. It has even become a solo （独奏）instrument. One of the most famous musical pieces played on the erhu is Erquan Yingyue.As the erhu was mainly played by common people and the playing skills were passed down orally （口头地）, there are few written records about the erhu that can be found. To study the history and the development of the erhu, historians （历史学者）usually turn to ancient paintings. The earliest pictures of this instrument were found in Yulin Caves and Eastern Thousand Buddha Caves in Gansu Province, where five erhu pictures were discovered on murals（壁画）.46.
