36．Different weather makes people feel different．It influences health，intelligence 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 Northeast and the Middle West，it is very hot at some times and very cold at 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 1983report by scientists，IQ 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 on exams in the hot months of
the year（July and August）．
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 a hard time in hot summer．At about 18℃people become stronger．
Low air pressure may make people forgetful．People leave more bags on buses and in shops on low﹣pressure days．People feel best at a temperature of about 18℃．Are you feeling sad，tired，forgetful，or unhappy today？It may be the weather's problem．

41．Social customs and ways of behaving change all the time．Things that were considered impolite many years ago are now acceptable．Just a few years ago，it was considered to be impolite behavior for a man to smoke on the street．No man who thought of himself as being a gentleman would make a fool of himself by smoking when a lady was in the room．
Customs also differ from country to country．Does a man walk on the left or the right of a woman in your country？Or doesn't matter？What about table manners？
The Americans and British people not only speak the same language but also share a large number of social customs．For example，in both America and England，people shake hands when they meet each other for the first time．Also most Englishmen will open a door for a woman or offer their seats to women，and so will most Americans．Promptness（准时）is important both in England and in America．That is，the dinner guest either arrive close to the time that has been made or calls up to explain his delay（耽误）．
The important thing to remember about social customs is not to do anything that might make other people feel uncomfortable﹣especially if they are your guests．There is an old story about a man who gave a very formal dinner party．When the food was served，one of the guests started to eat his peas with a knife．The other guests were amused or greatly surprised，but the host calmly picked up his knife and began eating in the same way．It would have been bad manners to make his guest feel foolish or uncomfortable．
