情绪多变可以帮助我们适应瞬息万变的世界

Moody1 people are often baffling to those of us with steadier emotions.

喜怒无常的人常常令情绪稳定的人感到困惑。

But scientists argue that changing moods - as seen in sulking teenagers, grumpy spouses2, or bad-tempered3 parents - serve an important purpose.

Rather than being a weakness, they are nature's way to of helping4 us adapt to an ever changing world. So when times are good and spirits are high, we take more risks at a time they are likely to be rewarded.

And when times are tough, sulking can help us conserve5 our energy.

To take a human example, a stock market trader who makes a successful deal becomes more optimistic about the outcome of his next transaction.

He is then likely to take more risks - as he becomes more optimistic things will go in his or her favour.

The increase in risk taking allows him to make maximum gains at a time when risk taking is most likely to pay off.

This holds true when a variety of different events have an underlying6 connection, the authors argue.
