阅读理解 How to Beat a Bad Mood     Do you have one of those days or weeks when everything seems to annoy(使烦恼) you? Even if you do nothing about it, your bad mood will probably go away after some time. But with a little effort, you can forget it much faster, often within a day or two.     Walk it off     Exercise is the most popular bad-mood buster(遏制者). A person who's in a bad mood has low energy and high tension(紧张). Taking a fast ten-minute walk, or taking some quick exercise can do wonders towards changing that bad mood.     Tune it out     Listening to your favourite music for a while can also make tension go away quickly, because music starts associations with past positive experiences we've had.     Give yourself a pen talk     Stop and listen to what's on your mind. Bad moods are often started by too many negative(消极的) thoughts. Write them all down on paper:the pessimistic(悲观的)messages you've been giving yourself and then give optimistic answers.     Reduce your stress     Relaxation techniques are wonderful mood-lifters. These include deep breathing, stretching and visualising(想象), all of which sound complicated(复杂的)but aren't. One easy way to visualise is to close your eyes and picture a favourite place, such as the beach. Another simple way to fight against distress is to make a to-do list. One reason for being in a bad mood is feeling you have no options(选择权). By taking control over certain areas, you realise you're not helpless. You can make changes in your mood and life.     Avoid things that won't improve your mood     TV may not help much. You need to increase your energy level and stimulate(刺激) your mind—something that the TV show "neighbours" won't do. And before you reach for that piece of cake and coffee, think about how mood and food are linked. Sugar and caffeine contribute to depressed(沮丧的) moods. The better choice? Research shows that carbohydrates(碳水化合物), such as potatoes and pasta(意大利面), produce a calming effect on people who have a desire for them. （1） We learn from the text that it might help rid us of a bad mood       .  A . to do nothing about it B . to take a long walk on the beach C . to do some exercise with our favourite music D . to talk it to neighbours （2） Why is it suggested that you close your eyes and picture the beach?
