A word first coined in 1918, but rarely used today, may become a more frequently used part of
the English lexicon. That word is "hangry," which is a combination of the words "hungry" and
"angry". It means to be bad tempered or irritable as a result of hunger. The word is making a
comeback because of research that suggests "hanger" is a diagnosable feeling. Researchers believe
"hangriness" could be a genuine medical phenomenon. Scientists from the UK's Anglia Ruskin
University examined how hunger affects emotions during our daily lives. Lead author Professor
Viren Swami said the research indicated a strong link between hunger and feelings of anger,
irritability, or low pleasure. The researchers analyzed data from 64 volunteers aged between 18 and 60. The participants
had to complete surveys on a smartphone app five times a day for 21 days. The app helped people
to give researchers real-time information on their feelings when they were hungry. Dr. Swami
explained this provided a "meaningful" link between hunger and emotions. He said that the results
of the study suggested that the experience of being hangry is real. He added: "We show, for the first
time in a non-laboratory setting, that feeling hungry is associated with greater anger, irritability and
lower levels of pleasure." He suggested that if people knew they were hangry, they could control
their anger better. 【題組】50. Which of the following is Not true?
(A) The word "hangry" is made up of the words "hungry" and "angry."
(B) A coin with the word "hangry" was made in 1918.
(C) Data from an app was sent to researchers after 24 hours.
(D) Survey participants said there were hungry about five times a day.
