Scientists are making an effort to find out how our feelings are affected. How you feel is decided by many things, such as your personality (性格) and the actions of others. You may be surprised to know the weather can also affect your feelings.
People often say they feel good when it's sunny and sad when it's cloudy. In fact, sunlight makes us feel happy. When sunlight hits our skins, our bodies produce Vitamin D (维生素D). Vitamin D helps our bodies make a special chemical which affects our brains and makes us happy. For example, the winter in Sweden and Norway is long and dark with little sunlight, so many people there often feel sad. To help the people in these countries feel happier, special “sunrooms” are built for people to get “sunlight” for an hour or two!
The weather can affect our feelings in other ways as well. Rain can make people angry because being wet makes people unhappy. In the same way, hot weather can make people angry because people don't feel comfortable when feeling hot. As you can see, the weather can influence the chemicals which control our brains. Through these ways, the weather can affect our feelings. Sadly, while the weather can change us, we cannot change the weather.
