A
Compared to night owls（鹰）, people who rise early feel happier and more satisfied with life overall.
But the good news for teenagers is that most people become earlier risers as they age, and this change is also associated with greater feelings of happiness. Researchers at the University of Toronto asked more than 700 people about their preferred time of day and how healthy and happy they generally feel.
They then compared the responses of the group of younger adults aged 17 to 38 with older people ages 59 to 79. Only about seven percent of young adults are morning larks（云雀）, while by age 60 most people preferred to be up with the dawn. Just seven percent of the oldest people in the study described themselves as night owls.
“We found that older adults reported greater positive emotion than younger adults, and older adults were more likely to be morning – type people than younger adults,” study researcher Renee Biss from the University of Toronto reportedly told LiveScience. The “morningness” was associated with greater happiness emotions in both age groups.
Morning trypes also tended to report that they felt healthier than the late risers, according to the study that published in the journal Emition. The researchers said that this apparent health benefit could come from the extra sleep they would enjoy, as their sleeping schedule would fit with society’s expectations of rising early for work.
This extra sleep could not only make them feel more clear –mined, but may also boost their immune system.
“An evening person may go throught their week feeling unhappy because they have to get up earlier than they would like to”. But Ms Biss said there was hope for night owls as it was possible for them to turn themselves into morning people.
“One way to do it is to increase your natural light exposure early in the morning, and to wake up earlier and go to bed earlier,” she said. “It’s easiest if you have a consistent schedule, to make sure you are waking up at the same time every day.”
56．From the text we know that earlier risers .
A．like to stay up late and stay happy B．are more associated with positive feelings
C．are among the majority among they your D．are healthier than other people
57．What is the fifth paragraph mainly about?
A．Earlier risers feel happier than later risers.
B．Earlier risers feel healthier than night owls.
C．Later risers get more sleep than earlier risers.
D．Morning types tend to sleep more.

58．What does the underlined word “boost” probably mean?
A．reduce B．damage C．improve D．enlarge
59．Which of the following is not the way to turn evening people to morning people?
A．To sleep with the light on in the morning.
B．To fit their schedule with society’s expectations.
C．To wake up earlier and go to bed earlier.
D．To expose themselves to more natural light.

Researchers at the University of Kansas say that people can accurately judge 90 percent of a stranger's personality simply by looking at the person's shoes.
"Shoes convey a thin but useful slice of information about their wearers," the authors wrote in the new study published in the Journal of Research in Personality. "Shoes serve a practical purpose, and also serve as nonverbal cues with symbolic messages. People tend to pay attention to the shoes they and others wear."
Medical Daily notes that the number of detailed personality traits detected in the study include a person's general age, their gender, income, political affiliation, and other personality traits, including someone's emotional stability.
Lead researcher Omri Gillath said the judgments were based on the style, cost, color and condition of someone's shoes. In the study, 63 University of Kansas students looked at pictures showing 208 different pairs of shoes worn by the study's participants. Volunteers in the study were photographed in their most commonly worn shoes, and the
