line into jealousy？for most teens there will come a day when you realize that one of your friends is jealous and that this jealousy is hurting your friendship.when this happens it can seem like there is nothing that you can do，but the good news is that there is.dont let jealousy spoil your relationships.tackle it head on and you might be back to normal much sooner than you think.it can be hard to walk up to a friend and ask them what the problem is，but if you want to save your friendship youll have to do just that.dont approach them and ask why they are jealous of you (unless of course you want to appear totally conceited)，just take some time alone with them and let them know that youve been feeling like theres been something coming between you.if they refuse to respond，then use the opportunity to explain how you have been feeling.chances are that something you say will strike a nerve and your friend will open up as well. when you figure out what is annoying your friend，ask him or her what (s)he thinks would make the situation better.if，for example，(s)he says that (s)he feels like (s)he doesnt get to spend any time with you because of your being off with your new friends from the swim team then maybe you could invite her along the next time or block off one day a week for just the two of you.remember，though，that whatever solution you decide on should be a compromise.dont limit your own talents or opportunities simply because your friend is unhappy.try instead to include him or her in your new life and see how that works out.even the best of friendships can be tinged by jealousy.this destructive emotion is rarely productive and can turn best friends into worst enemies.before taking extreme action，chat with your jealous friend to see if the two of you can work out a compromise.if you cant，be prepared to know exactly how far you will go to keep your friend and how far you wont.【语篇解读】

many different kinds of productions, such as musical theatre, dance theatre and childrens theatre. usually, performers are amateurs who receive no pay, but at other times professionals get involved, and they are paid. community theatres of today are a little different ftom the old “little theatres”，as most are simply run by colleges and their theatre departments. community theatres are a great way to get involved with local actors. now, most theatres put on shows that will entertain or benefit the community.in the 1880s, “little theatre” was started in europe so that poor people could see theatrical productions without having to travel far or pay a lot. in 1910，this idea traveled to the united states. in the early years, community theatres were even funded by the government, but when shows became too political, government funding was stopped.community theatres of today are a little different from the old “little theatres”，as most simply want to infuse little culture into the lives of the local citizens. in many cases, these theatres are run by colleges and their theatre departments. these productions are often free of charge, or charge very little money to pay for costumes and other incidental expenses. many also encourage the participation of children and other young people to let them develop theatrical skills, as well as to keep them busy so that they do not choose to get into trouble. additionally, for those who desire strongly to become professional actors and to one day get a chance to act in a national theatre production, it is an exciting place to learn and develop theatrical skills.41.why was “little theatre” started in europe?a.to put on shows for children.b.to collect money for poor people.c.to entertain poor people.d.to get people interested in theatrical productions.【答案】c【解析】细节理解题。由“little theatre”was started in europe so that poor people could see theatrical productions without having to travel far or pay a lot.”可知，是为了让穷人娱乐。故选c。42. from

experience appeared rather discouraging. such variations in size, shape, chemistry, conduction speed, excitation threshold, and the like as had been demonstrated in nerve cells remained negligible in significance for any possible correlation with the manifold dimensions of mental experience. near the turn of the century, it had been suggested by hering that different modes of sensation, such as pain, taste and color, might be correlated with the discharge of specific kinds of nervous energy, however, subsequently developed methods of recording and analyzing nerve potentials failed to reveal any such qualitative diversity. it was possible to demonstrate by other methods refined structural differences among neuron types; however, proof was lacking that the quality of the impulse or its conduction was influenced by these differences, which seemed instead to influence the developmental patterning of the neural circuits. although qualitative variance among nerve rigidly disproved, the doctrine was generally abandoned in favor of the opposing view, namely, that nerve impulses are essentially homogeneous in quality and are transmitted as “common currency” throughout the nervous system. according to this theory, it is not the quality of the sensory nerve impulses that determines the diverse conscious sensations they produce, but, rather, the different areas of the brain into which they discharge, and there is some evidence for this view. in one experiment, when an electric stimulus was applied to a given sensory field of the cerebral cortex of a conscious human subject, it produced a sensation of the appropriate modality for that particular locus, that is, a visual sensation from the visual cortex, an auditory sensation from the auditory cortex, and so on. other experiments revealed slight variations in the size, number, arrangement, and interconnection of the nerve cells, but as for as psychoneural correlations were concerned, the obvious similarities of these sensory fields to each other seemed much more remarkable than any of the minute differences.however, cortical as diverse as those of red, black, green and white, or touch, cold, warmth, movement, pain, posture and pressure apparently may arise through activation of the same cortical areas. what seemed to remain was some kind of differential patterning effects in the brain excitation: it is the difference in the central distribution of impulses that counts. in short, brain theory suggested a correlation between mental experience and the activity of relatively homogenous nerve-cell units conducting essentially homogeneous impulses through homogeneous cerebral tissue. to match the multiple dimensions of mental experience psychologists could only point to a limitless variation in the spatiotemporal patterning of nerve impulses.1. up until 1950, efforts to establish that brain processes and mental experience are related would most likely have been met witha. vexation. . irritability. c. discouragement d. neutrality2. the author mentions “common currency” primarily in order to emphasize the a. lack of differentiation among nerve impulses in human beings. similarities in the views of the scientists.c. similarity of sensations of human beings.d. continuous passage of nerve impulses through the nervous system.3. which of the following theories is reinforced by the depiction of the experiment in lines 1619?a. cognitive experience manifested by sensory nerve impulses are influenced by the area of the brain stimulated. qualitative diversity in nerve potentials can now be studied more accurately.c. sensory stimuli are heterogeneous and are greatly influenced by the nerve sensors they produce.d. differentiation in neural modalities influences the length of nerve transmissions.4. it can be inferred from the passage that which of the following exhibit the least qualitative variation?a. nerve cells. . nerve impulses.c. cortical areas. c. spatial patterns of nerve impulses.vocabulary1. mental experiences 精神感受2. discharge 释放3. negligible 微小的，可以忽略不计的4. manifold 多种多样的，多方面5. neuron 神经元/细胞6. neural （中枢）神经的（系统）7. qualitative diversity 质的多样性，量变的8. disprove 反驳，反证9. homogeneous 相似的10. sensory nerve 感觉神经11. cortical 外皮的，皮质的12. cerebral cortex 大脑皮层13. locus 地点，区域14. psychoneural 精神神经15. heterogeneous 异源的，异种的，异体的16. spatiotenporal 时空的难句译注1. such variations in size, shape, chemistry, conduction speed, excitation threshold, and the like as had been demonstrated in nerve cells remained negligible in significance for any possible correlation with the manifold dimensions of mental experience.结构分析 句型为suchas 可as 具有关系代词作用，此处作从句中had been demonstrated 的主语。参考译文 神经细胞中所显示的诸如在尺寸，形状，化学，神经脉冲中传导速度，激发界限等方面的那种变化差异对多方面的精神感受可能有联系来说仍然意义不大。2. it was possible to demonstrate by other methods refined structural differences among neuron types; however, proof was lacking that the quality of the impulse or its conduction was influenced by these differences, which seemed instead to influence the developmental patterning of the neural circuits.参考译文 有可能用其他办法来显示神经类型之间细微的结构差异。可是，缺乏证据证实脉冲的或者其脉冲传导的质量受这些差别的影响。相反，这种质量看起来它却影响了中枢神经循环的进展模式。3. in one experiment, when an electric stimulus was applied to a given sensory field of the cerebral cortex of a conscious human subject, it produced a sensation of the appropriate modality for that particular locus, that is, a visual sensation from the visual cortex, an auditory sensation from the auditory cortex, and so on.结构分析 主从句。后面跟解释性同位语：that is 。参考译文 在一个实验中，当电刺激作用于有意识的人体大脑皮层的某个感觉部位，它对这个特定部位产生一种恰如其分的感觉道，也就是说，视觉来自视觉皮层，听觉来自听皮层，以此类推。4. other experiments revealed slight variations in the size, number, arrangement, and interconnection of the nerve cells, but as for as psychoneural cor
