As we walked through the doors of the general store, Grandma handed me 10 dollars and said: “Buy something for someone who needs it.” I just s
19、tood there, thinking about what to buy and who to buy it for. I thought of everybody I knew. Then I thought about Bobbie Decker. He didnt have a coat. He never went out to play games in winter. I would buy him one. That evening, Grandma helped me wrap the coat and write, “To Bobbie, from Santa Claus
20、” on it. Then she drove me over to his house. Grandma parked down the street, and we hid behind the trees near Bobbies house. Then she said: “All right, Santa Claus is coming.” I rushed for his front door, and put down the present outside his door. I rang his doorbell then flew back to the trees. We

25、ffects how we feel,” explained Nikolaus Troje, the lead scientist, to The Independent. Scientists believed that the way we remember emotional messages is affected by our mood. Those who suffer from depression (抑郁) remember negative information far more easily than active messages, especially when th
26、e information is about them. In order to prove this, Troje and his team used cameras to observe 47 people walking on the treadmill (跑步机). Half of the people were encouraged to mimic (模仿) a depressive walking style, while the other half moved like a happy person. Walking speed was kept equal for both
27、 groups. During the time on the treadmill, the scientists read out a list of active and negative words, asking people to decide whether or not each word described them well. Afterwards, people were asked to recite as many of the words as they could remember. As expected, those who had been mimicking

And the scientists believe that using a happy walking style could help with treatment for depression.28. What new way did sci
