personality plays an important part in how we experience stress. personality is the way a person acts, feels and thinks.some people are aggressive and always in a hurry. they often become angry when things do not happen the way they planned. they belong to “type a” personality. studies suggest that these people often get stressrelated disorders. the “type b” personality is calmer. these people are able to deal with all kinds of situations more easily. as a result, they are less affected by stress.studies have also shown that men and women deal with stress differently. women seem to be better able to deal with stress than men are.however, experts say women are three times more likely to develop depression in reaction to the stress in their lives. american writer john gray became famous for his book, men are from mars, women are from venus. he notes that men and women have opposite ways of dealing with stress. for a man, the best way is to rest and forget about daily problems. but a woman suffering from stress needs to talk about her problems.experts say there are several ways to deal with stress, including deep breathing, exercise, eating healthy foods, getting enough rest and balancing the time spent in working and playing.exercise is one of the most effective stressreduction measures, as physical changes from exercise make you feel better. in addition, exercise can also improve the bodys defense system against disease.keeping stress to yourself can make problems worse. experts say that expressing emotions to friends or family members or writing down your feelings can help reduce stress. and they also suggest that people should attempt to accept or change stressful situations whenever possible.36according to the experts, _apeople respond to stress quite differentlybpeople make the same response to stresscunlike women, men tend to feel depressed more easilydpersonality has nothing to do with how we experience stress37compared with “type a” personality, “type b” personality _acauses more troublesbis less able to cope with different situationscis more easily affected by stressdtends to solve problems more peacefully38by saying “men are from mars, women are from venus”， john gray means that they _aexperience emotions in a different waybcope with stress in a different waycsuffer from stress in a similar wayddevelop stress in the opposite way39if you want to reduce your stress, you can _atake some exercisebkeep it to yourselfcremain silentdignore the stressful situationbep portable heater（2013年北京）we all know that the cost of

brands参考答案.1.d考查非谓语动词。第一空用seated或sitting作宾补，第二空处是with的复合结构，由fixoneseyesonsth可知应用过去分词fixed。2c考查形容词作状语。becontentto对感到满意。contented为形容词作定语，意为“满意的”。句意：我们静静地坐着，能在一起感到很满足。3c考查介词用法。convincesbofsth使某人相信某事。介词on可表示“在方面”。句意：科学家们相信大笑对于人的身心健康有积极的作用。4b考查短语辨析。a项应为badlyinneedofsth(非常需要某物)；b项意为“缺乏”；c项意为“较好的；较为宽裕的”；d项意为“拼搏；挣扎”。句意：这所学校严重缺乏有教学经验的教师，这引起了很大的关注。5c根据前面的lookedhereandthere判断，我们的老师“好像”在找东西，所以用asif。6c考查动词短语辨析。a项意为“切开；切碎”；b项意为“切掉；删去”；c项意为“切断；隔绝”；d项意为“抄近路”。句意：由于通往村里的道路都被毁掉了，所以有几个村庄被与外界隔绝开来。7c考查动词的时态。电影国王的演讲已经上映，故用一般过去时。8c考查副词辨析。occasionally偶尔；regularly定期地；constantly不断地，经常地；frequently频繁地，经常地。句意：这台机器用了好多年了，难怪(它)偶尔运转不良。9b.本题考查条件状语从句，句意是“如果生意没有改进的话，她决定关闭这家商店”，所以答案为b。10dfailure表示“失败的人或事”时，是可数名词；表示“失败”时，是不可数名词。第一空指“失败者”，所以用a；第二空指“以失败告终”，所以不加冠词。11d由uptonow可知，此句应该使用现在完成时态。12d本句考查ittakes(sb)sth(todosth)。原句转换成陈述句语序为：itwilltakedeathstoconvincetheauthoritiesoftheneedtotestthesedrugs.。13c此处考查“keep宾语宾语补足语”的结构。thechildren与entertain之间为逻辑上的动宾关系，所以要用过去分词作宾语补足语。14a考查动词短语辨析。句意：你是怎样这么容易就认出你的朋友的？她是那种就算是在人群中也很显眼的女孩。pickout选出，拣出，辨认出；standout引人注目，脱颖而出；standfor代表，象征；takeout取出，带出去；standby站在一边，袖手旁观，支持；standaside站开。15c考查虚拟语气。wouldrather后通常接不用that引导的从句，从句用过去式，但不表示“过去”，而表示“现在”或“将来”。.我的学生都是一些身体残疾或智力有障碍的孩子。mark行动不便，在一次学校组织的残疾人奥林匹克运动会中，mark落在最后，他的三个朋友返回去跟mark共同冲向终点。他们的行为深刻地阐释了残疾人奥运会的真正意义之所在。16a从第一句中的“teaching”一词可以看出作者是一名教师，因此这里是说“我”的“学生”。17d从前一句可知mark患脑瘫，行动不便，因此他是被束缚在“轮椅”上。24空所在句子中的“wheelchair”是答案提示。18b前一句提到他必须跟自己的身体不便作斗争，本句提到他有积极的态度，前后构成转折关系，因此选b。19c联系上下文可知，他积极乐观，因此很受同学们的“喜爱”。20d由23空后的“wellintheirsportsevents”可知，这三个学生擅长“运动”。21cmark希望像他们一样，自己不受身体不便的束缚。因此选body。22bmark基本上不能运动，因此在看到别人在运动场上活动时，他会“惊叹”。wonder表示“惊讶，惊叹”。23a上文提到这三个学生擅长体育运动，再由该空后的“gavethenormallycheerabout”可知他们在这次的体育比赛中获得了好名次。place表示“获名次”，符合语境。24b从上一句的“cheerabout”以及文章最后一句可知，mark坐在轮椅里为他们欢呼
