“We need a new car,” Aaron Roberts heard his dad say. “Our car broke down.”

As summer gives way to autumn, many of us find ourselves lacking (缺少) warmth and sunlight. And the shorter days make some people feel upset (沮丧的) and lazy. They are having the so-called autumn sadness. In worse cases, however, some may suffer from seasonal affective disorder, or SAD.
SAD is a type of depression (抑郁症). It mostly starts in the late autumn or early winter and goes away in the spring and summer. People who have SAD oversleep, overeat, and lose interest in activities they once liked. They also feel sad and even desperate (绝望的).
The reason for SAD is not clear. Johns Hopkins University said that the lack of natural light during the autumn and winter months may disrupt (打乱) the body clock and the making of hormones (荷尔蒙). This disruption can lead to depression.
People with SAD often need medical (医药的) help. Light therapy (光疗法) is a common and useful way to treat(治疗) it. Doctors advise patients (病人) to get as much sunlight as possible. Light therapy helps to balance hormones and get a patient’s life back on track.
Also, living a healthy life, like sleeping early, exercising often, and eating well, can help people deal with SAD.
According to the National Institute of Mental Health of the US, in most cases (情况), SAD begins in young adulthood (青年时期). So, while studying inside the classroom, don’t forget to get some sunshine outside the classroom when you can!

43. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about
A．The changes in the body in autumn and winter.
B．The body clock of people with SAD.
C．The hormones people need.
D．The possible reason for SAD.
44. What does the underlined part mean in the passage

B．make people’s lives more colorful
C．help people get more sunlight
