    We all know that food makes us grow every day，but sometimes it can make us happy when we feel bad. Food such as sea fish，bananas，pumpkins and chicken can help us be happy. How can they affect(影响) our feelings?

    People living by the sea look much happier than other people，because the fresh sea air helps them clear their minds and they eat a lot of sea fish. Bananas have much Vitamin B6.Having more bananas can help us make a quick decision，and become more confident(自信的)．Eating pumpkins can also help people get into a good feeling because it's rich(富有的) in Vitamin B6 and iron(铁)．

    Are you in a bad mood(情绪)？If you are，don't sit alone. Go to eat such happy food with your friends. Maybe you'll feel better.

    Do you know how to make friends with a group of people? Let me tell you the steps about making friends with the group. Maybe it's helpful(有帮助的)to you.

    First, you need to know what kind of group they are. If people of the group are shy, never ask them “Why don't you talk?” “Why are you quiet?” or “Why do you look shy?”.They don't like such questions.

    Next, remember that each group is different. They may use different words, like different things or have different ways of “hanging out”.

    Then, the important thing is that you should try to be outgoing. If you are outgoing, you would become very popular. Remember, nobody wants to make friends with a shy person.

    Finally, find a right topic to talk with the group. For example, you can talk with them about the weather, the news, their hobbies or their school life.
