People have all turned to sad music to make themselves feel better at some point in their life,     1     why does the music with double or even triple (三倍的) sadness help drag people out of low spirits?

Music of this sort can arouse positive memories in people’s life, thus     3     (improve) their mood.

Psychologist Adrian North from Curtin University says there     4     (exist) two possible explanations     5     why people enjoy listening to sad music from social psychology.

One idea from social psychology about this is that people will feel     6     (good) about themselves if they focus on someone who’s doing even worse. Everything’s going to be okay, because this person is having an even worse day than they are.
