Different weather makes people feel different.

It has an effect on health,intelligence (智力) and feelings.

In August,it is very hot and wet in the southern part of the United States. People there have heart trouble and other kinds of health problems during this month. In the Northern and the Middle West,it is very hot at some time and very cold at the other times. People in these states have more heart trouble after the weather changes in February or March.

The weather can also influence intelligence. For example,in a 1983 report by scientists,IQ(智商) of a group of students was very high when a very strong wind came,but after the strong wind,their IQ was 10% lower. The wind can help people have more intelligence. Very hot weather,on the other hand,can make it lower. Students in many schools of the United States often get worse in exams in the hot months of the year (July and August) .

The weather also has a strong influence on people's feelings. Winter may be a bad time for thin people. They usually feel cold during these months. They might feel unhappy during cold weather. But fat people may have hard time in hot summer. At about 18°   C. people feel more comfortable.

Are you feeling sad,tired,or unhappy today? It may be the weather's problem.

You may have heard of the famous saying,

“East or west,home is the best." What does the word “home” mean to you? How do you say the word in French? In Chinese? In your language? Although people usually know what the word means,it sometimes has no exact translation. It's not surprising,because the idea of home is different from country to country,and from person to person. A home is more than a roof and four walls. It's the cooking,eating,talking,playing and sleeping that go on inside. And at home you usually feel safe and relaxed.

Homes look different in different countries. They also have different things inside. For example,in cold northern Europe,there's a fire in the living room or kitchen and all the chairs face it. In the south,where the sun shines a lot and it?s more important to keep the heat out,there are small windows and cool stone floors.

We asked some people about their homes.

How often do people move houses in your country?

In my country many people don't stay in one place for a very long time. They often move every ten years or so.
