Question

 What makes you happy? Beautiful music, good friends or interesting games?    1.     However, delicious food can’t always be at hand. When you feel bad    and there’s no food available (可得到的），what    will    you do?    2.     

According to their new research, drawing pictures of the food you like will help improve your mood.

The researchers invited 61 students from St. Bonaventure University in New York to take part in

the research. 3.       The researchers first divided the students into four groups and gave them red，green and black pencils to draw pictures of different food including cupcake, pizza, strawberries and peppers (甜椒）.

4.       They had the students record their mood, hunger and level of excitement before and after the five-minute drawing exercise, which was done on an empty stomach.

    The result showed drawing pizza improved the student’s mood by 28% , while drawing cupcakes and strawberries lifted up their spirits by 27% and 22%.

5.      The result also showed there was no big difference in hunger and excitement levels between the groups.
