We wanted to ma ke our way down to explore (探索) the area, so Bob started to climb down and I followed him. Unluckily, some rocks came down after u s. One of them nearly hit my head.

A Lucky DayCFear may be felt in the heart as well as in the head, accord ing to a study that has found a link between the cycles of a beat ing heart and the chance of someone feeling fear. Tests on health y volunteers found that they were more likely to feel a sense of fear at the moment when their hearts are contracting (收缩) and pum ping blood around their bodies, compared with the point when the heartbeat is relaxed. Scientists say the results suggest that the heart is able to influence how the brain responds to a fearful e vent, depending on which point it is at in its regular cycle of c ontraction and relaxation (舒张). Sarah Garfinkel at the Brighton a nd Sussex Medical School said: “Our study shows for the first tim e that the way in which we deal with fear is different depending on when we see fearful pictures in relation to our heart. "The st udy tested 20 healthy volunteers on their reactions to fear as th ey were shown pictures of fearful faces. Dr. Garfinkel said, “The study showed that fearful faces are better noticed when the hear t is pumping than when it is relaxed. Thus our hearts can also af fect what we see and what we don’t see—and guide whether we see f ear. ”To further understand this relationship, the scientists als o used a brain scanner to show how the brain influences the way t he heart changes a person''s feeling of fear. “We have found an im portant mechanism by which the heart and brain ‘speak’ to each ot her to change our feelings and reduce fear,” Dr. Garfinkel said. “We hope that by increasing our understanding about how fear is d ealt with and ways that it could be reduced, we may be able to de velop more successful treatments for anxiety disorders, and also for those who may be suffering from serious stress disorder. ”47. What is the finding of the study?A. Fear has something to do wit h one''s health.B. One’s heart affects how he feels fear.C. One''s fast heartbeats are likely to cause fear. D. Fear is a result of one''s relaxed heartbeat. 48. The study was carried out by analyzi ng _______. A. volunteers'' reactions to horrible pictures and dat a from their brain scans B. different pictures shown to volunteer s and their heart-brain communication C. volunteers'' heartbeats w hen they saw terrible pictures D. the time volunteers saw fearful pictures and their health conditions 49. What does the underline d word “mechanism” mean?A. machine. B. order. C. treatment. D. sy stem. 50. This study may help to _______. A. explain the cycle of fear and anxiety B. find the key to the heart-brain communicatio nC. treat anxiety and stress betterD. understand different fears in our hearts and heads DChinese are very generous when it comes to educating their children. Not caring about the money, parents often send their children to the best schools or even abroad to E ngland, the United States or Australia. They also want their chil dren to take extra-course activities where they will either learn music or dance, or other classes that will give them a head star t in life. The Chinese believe that the more expensive an educati on is, the better it is. So parents will spend an unreasonable am ount of money on education. Even poor couples will buy a computer for their son or daughter. However, what most parents fail to se e is that the best early education they can give their children i s usually very cheap. Parents can see that their children’s skill s are different, maybe good in some areas, but poor in others. Mo st parents fail to realize that today’s children are in need of s elf-respect and self-confidence. The problem is that parents are only educating their children on how to take tests and how to stu dy well, but parents are not teaching them the most important ski lls they need to be confident, happy and clever. Parents can achi eve this by teaching practical skills like cooking, sewing and do ing other housework. Teaching a child to cook will improve many o f the skills that he will need later in life. Cooking requires pa tience and time. It is an enjoyable but difficult experience. A g ood cook always tries to improve his cooking, so he will learn to work hard and gradually finish his job successfully. His result, a well-cooked dinner, will give him much satisfaction and a lot of self-confidence. Some old machines, such as a broken radio or TV set that you give your child to play with will make him curiou s and have interest. He will spend hours looking at them, trying to fix them; your child might become an engineer when he grows up . These activities are not only teaching a child to read a book, but rather to think, to use his mind. And that is more important. 51. What can we learn from the first paragraph? A. Parents don’t often send their children to the best schools. B. Parents care a bout their money when educating their children. C. Parents spend much money on the education without thinking. D. Parents seldom w ant their children to take extra-course activities. 52. Most Chin ese parents don’t realize . A. what children really need in late r lifeB. how much the best education is worth C. why school tests don’t satisfy children D. when children should be educated 53. T he writer’s attitude to children’s education is that .A. school education can’t meet parents’ expectationsB. children today shoul d learn different skills C. the cheaper an education is, the bett er it is D. practical skills are helpful to children’s growth 七、阅 读短文,根据短文内容填空。在未给提示词的空白处仅填一个单词,在给出提示词的空白处用所给词的正确形式填空(每小题1分,共5分)The Storm Brought People Closer TogetherBen could hear strong winds outside his home in Alabama.

Someone introduces you to a friend, you hear his or her name, and then two minutes later, you forget it. Or you go to the same restaurant every day and the owner always says “Hello” to you, but you can never remember her name. If this happens, you are typical—actually most people have the problem remembering names. Here are some common ways that can help people remember names. ·Write the name down (with a little information about the person) as soon as possible. ·Repeat the person''s name loud at least three times while you talk together. For example, instead of saying “Nice to meet you. ” say “Nice to meet you, Jack (or Sue or whatever the person''s name is). ” Instead of saying “Where do you live?” you can say “Where do you live, Jack?”·Introduce the person by name to someone else right away. There are also some strange ways. However, try them. ·Think of a story using the person''s name. For example, think to yourself, “Jack has a nice jacket. ” to imagine Jack in a nice jacket. ·Think of a rhyme for the person''s name. For example, think to yourself, “Jack would look nice in black. ” imagine Jack wearing black clothes. All these ways have one thing in common. You must pay attention to the people you meet. You can''t just meet someone, nod your head, say hello, and walk away. Remembering names takes work and practice. 1 / 1 |
