He said, \"when the street looks bad and dirty, you are going to feel bad about the

What a moving love story!

翻译：一个多么感人的爱情故事！

语法点播：这里使用了感叹句，What引导的感叹句结构为“What+a/an+形容词+可数名词单数（+主语+谓语）!”或“What+形容词+可数名词复数/不可数名词（+主语+谓

语）!”；How引导的感叹句结构为“How+形容词/副词（+主语+谓语）!”。这里中心词为名词短语love story，story为可数名词单数形式，且被不定冠词a和形容词moving修饰，所以这里用“What+a/an+形容词+可数名词单数（+主语+谓语）!”的结构，这里省略了主语和谓语。 五、任务型阅读

1. 回答问题阅读短文，然后根据短文内容简要回答问题。

I lived with my grandmother in the countryside in the past. But when I was ten years old, my grandmother died. I am the only grandson of my grandmother. I was so sad that I had no tears（眼泪）. But that night when my father tried to cheer me up, my laugh turned into crying.

So scientists believe crying and laughing come from the same part of the brain, just as

laughing has many health advantages（优点）, so does crying. A study discovered that 85% of women and 73% of men reported feeling better after crying.

How do tears help people? Tears attract（吸引）help from other people. Researchers（研究者）agree that when we cry, people around us become kinder and more friendly and they are more ready to provide comfort. That's why I often find my students feel better after crying with the help of their classmates. Tears also make us understand our friends better. Sometimes we even don't know we're very sad until we cry. We learn about our feelings through crying, and then we can deal with them.

Just crying can be healthy, not crying—holding back tears of anger, pain or suffering—can be bad for physical health. Because too much control of feelings can cause illness. If you have health problems, doctors will certainly not ask you to cry. But when you feel like crying, don't fight it. It's natural and healthy response（反应）. 【长难句分析】

That's why I often find my students feel better after crying with the help of their classmates. 翻译：这就是为什么我经常发现我的学生们在他们同学的帮助下哭后感觉好多了。 句子分析
