no color. some insects have favorite colors. mosquitoes(蚊子) like blue but do not like yellow. a red light will not attract insects，but a blue lamp will. in a similar way human beings also have

wasnt covered by water or mud. as i reached the pool, i was suddenly attacked! yet i did nothing for the attack. it was so unpredictable and from somewhere totally unexpected. i was surprised as well as unhurt though i had been struck four or five times. i backed up a foot and my attacker stopped attacking me. had i been hurt i wouldnt have found it amusing. and i was laughing. after all, i was being attacked by a butterfly!having stopped, laughing, i took a step forward. my attacker rushed me again. he charged towards me at full speed, attempting to hurt me but in vain. for a second time, i took a step backwards while my attacker paused. i wasnt sure what to do. after all, its just not everyday that one is attacked by a butterfly. i stepped back to look the situation over. my attacker moved back to land on the ground. thats when i discovered why my attacker was charging me only moments earlier. he had a mate and she was dying. sitting close beside her, he opened and closed his wings as if to fan her. i could only admire the love and courage of that butterfly in his concern for his mate. he had taken it up on himself to attack me for his mates sake （缘故）, even though she was clearly dying and i was so large. he did so just to give her those extra few precious moments of life, should i have been careless enough to step on her. his courage in attacking something thousands of times larger and heavier than himself just for his mates safety seemed admirable. i couldnt do anything other than reward him by walking on the more difficult side of the pool. he had truly earned those moments to be with her, undisturbed. since then, ive always tried to remember the courage of that butterfly whenever i see huge barriers facing me.1. why did the writer change his direction

laughing and not laugh yourself? well, apparently its because we have mirror neurons (神经元) in our brains. put simply, the existence of mirror neurons suggests that every time we see someone else do something, our brains imitate (模仿) it, whether or not we actually perform the same action. this explains a great deal about how we learn to smile, talk, walk, dance or play sports. but the idea goes further: mirror neurons not only appear to explain physical actions, they also tell us that there is a biological basis for the way we understand other people. mirror neurons can undoubtedly be found all over our brains, but especially in the areas which relate to our ability to use languages, and to understand how other people feel. researchers have found that mirror neurons relate strongly to language. a group of researchers discovered that if they gave people sentences to listen to (for example: “the hand took hold of the ball”) , the same mirror neurons weretriggered as when the action was actually performed (in this example, actually taking hold of a ball) . any problems with mirror neurons may well result in problems with behavior. much research suggests that people with social and behavioral problems have mirror neurons which are not fully functioning. however, it is not yet known exactly how these discoveries might help find treatments for social disorders. research into mirror neurons seems to provide us with ever more information concerning how humans behave and interact (互动) . indeed, it may turn out to be the equivalent (相等物) for neuroscience of what einsteins theory of relativity was for physics. and the next time you feel the urge to cough in the cinema when someone else doeswell, perhaps youll understand why. 1. mirror neurons can explain.a. why we cry when we are hurtb. why we cough when we suffer from a coldc. why we smile when we see someone else smiled. why we yawn when we see someone else stay up late2. the underlined word“triggered”in the third paragraph probably means“”.a. set off b. cut offc. built up d. broken up3. we can learn from the passage that mirror neurons.a. relate to human behavior and interactionb. control human physical actions and feelingsc. result in bad behavior and social disordersd. determine our knowledge and language abilities4. what is the passage mainly about? a. ways to find mirror neurons. b. problems of mirror neurons. c. existence of mirror neurons. d. functions of mirror neurons. 【参考答案】14、caad阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（a、b、c和d）中，选出最佳选项。tui na and your emotional healthin traditional chinese medicine the body, mind and spirit cannot be divided and so the unique whole-body treatment in tui na can also be a useful treatment correcting any imbalances in the bodys energy before symptoms and disease can develop. it also works to restore emotional harmony as well as physical health. this is why after a tui na treatment many people feel good. many people in china use tui na regularly to keep healthy and to deal with some specific illnesses. tui na is performed on the clothed body and the patient is either lying on a couch or sitting on a chair. therapists using a variety of strokes or movements will control the intensity and direction of pressure in an exact way. the unique rolling movement in tui na is one of the most difficult strokes to learn and students have to practice sometimes for many months on a rice bag before they are allowed to practice on the human body. stresstui na is of course very useful for treating stress. it distributes the energy around the whole body. it is believed that tui na moves the strong energy in the tense muscles to the weaker areas, thus making a more balanced body. when your qi （energy in the body） flow is balanced you feel relaxed and comfortable. tui na is especially useful for stiff shoulders and tense neck muscles. emotionsin traditional chinese medicine each major organ is linked to an emotion. by balancing the energy in the organ, the relevant emotion will be calmed. when your emotions are out of control, you would usually turn to your doctor or perhaps a psychotherapist. but perhaps some people would not like to be seeing a psychotherapist or feel nervous about discussing their problems with others. with tui na one does not need to tell the therapist anything one does not want to. the treatment of tui na can deal with the problem itself although if one does need to talk, then the safe space is there to do so. an active dialogue between the therapist and the patient will help to get a better effect. how the major organs rule your emotionseach major organ the heart, the stomach, the spleen, the liver, the bladder, the kidneys, the lungs, etc. is linked to a relevant emotion. the heart is linked to joy, excitement and sadness. if the heart is out of balance, the patient may dream a lot at night and often forget something important in the day. the stomach and spleen are connected with too much thinking or worrying over anxiety. when the stomach is out of balance there is often a lack of energy. the patient often feels very tired and has no interest in doing anything at all. the liver and gall bladder are linked to anger. in chinese medicine the eyes are connected with the liver, and many people who suffer from anger often suffer from eye problems. the gall bladder rules decision-making and too much energy here can lead to rashness, while if there is too little it can bring about indecision. where there is a history of depression, the therapist would look to the liver. the bladder and kidneys are linked to fear of all kinds, from simple anxieties and phobias to vague fears and worries. the lungs are connected with feelings of grief and sadness. when there is a history of grief, the therapist would look to the lungs. tui na is used in almost all the hospitals in china and very popular among chinese people. it is a useful and valuable method of restoring qi balance, when emotional and physical health is out of balance. tui na is one of the remaining secrets of chinese medicine. 1. according to the passage, which statement is true about tui na?a. tui na is a whole-body treatment and cant be divided into different parts. b. tui na can be used to balance the diseases before they can develop in the body. c. tui na can bring back not only physical health but also emotional health. d. tui na only makes people feel good but do not actually cure disease. 2. how can the emotion be calmed?a. by linking the organ to an emotion. b. by telling the therapist anything one does not want to. c. by discussing their problems with others. d. by balancing the energy in the relevant organ. 3. when the stomach is out of balance, . a. the patient will have a stomachacheb. the patient will have a lot to worry aboutc. the patient will have nothing to dod. the patient will not feel like doing anything【参考答案】13、cdd 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（a、b、c和d）中，选出最佳选项。how many lies do the children tell you?mothers who feel their children don t appreciate them can add another grievance to the list: half the time, their children are lying to them. a study designed to expose the truth about lying shows that undergraduates lie to their mothers in 46% of their conversations. still, mums should feel better than total strangers, who are told lies an astonishing 77 % of the time. bella depaulo and a team of psychologists from the university of virginia, charlottesville, asked 77 undergraduates to keep a record of all their conversations for a week, and write down whether they lied at any time. depaulo named lying broadly, as when you intentionally try to mislead someone, so she would catch the smallest of lies. the students told a
