三、阅读理解。
阅读下面短文，从每小题所给的A、B、C三个选项中选择最佳答案。
Do you know how weather affects（影响）our lives? Well, it affects where we go, what we do, and what we wear. And it
also affects how we feel and behave. It is a big part of our lives!
We often use weather language to describe how we feel. For example, if we are feeling ill, we say we are “under the weather”. If we are feeling stressed and busy, we can say that we are “snowed under”. We use “bad” weather（rainy, stormy, etc.）to describe a bad mood, and “good” weather（sunny, warm, etc.）to describe a good mood.
And that is not all. The weather can even change the way we feel. For example, sunlight helps our body to produce vitamin D. This vitamin can improve our mood. In some parts of the world, people get less sunlight in winter, so people can feel unusually sad then. However, when it is hot and sunny, some people may get angry easily. Scientists are still studying how the weather changes the way people feel and behave.
These days, many of us spend less time outside than in the past. Getting no fresh air or sunlight and spending too much time inside can make us feel down. It is very important to go outside once in a while, whatever the weather, rain or shine!
