you have problems!” it is easy to say until you are in the midst of a really big onethe only people who dont have troubles are gathered in little neighborhoodsmost communities have at least onewe call them cemeteriesif youre breathing, you have difficultiesits the way of lifeand believe it or not, most of your problems may actually be good for you! let me explainmaybe you have heard the great barrier reef, stretching some 1,800 miles from new guinea to australiatour guides regularly take visitors to view the reefon one tour, a traveler asked the guide an interesting questioni notice that the lagoon （泻湖） side of the reef looks pale and lifeless, while the ocean side is vibrant and colorful, the traveler observedwhy is this?the guide gave an interesting answer, the coral around the lagoon side is in still water, with no challenge for its survivalit dies earlythe coral on the ocean side is constantly being tested by wind, waves and stormsit has to fight for its survival every dayas it is challenged and tested, it changes and adaptsit grows healthyit grows strongand it reproduces then he added, “thats the way it is with every living organism”thats how it is with peoplechallenged and tested, we come alive! like coral pounded by the sea, we growphysical demands can cause us to grow strongermental and emotional stress can produce tough-mindedness and resiliencyspiritual testing can produce strength of character and faithfulnessso, you have problems? no problem! just tell yourself, there i grow again!remember: a smooth sea never made a skilled mariner21who has no problems according to the passage?athe persons who are very famous bthe persons who have much moneycthe persons who have been born dthe persons who are living in the cemeteries22in the writers opinion, _aproblems bring us much troublebproblems have two sides, good or badcwe should try to stay away from any troubledthe fewer things we do, the less trouble well meet23the reason why lagoon side of the reef has no life is _ait hasnt got any sunlight bit has less energy than otherscit never faces any challenge and tests dit has no work to do every day24after reading this passage, we should _aregard any problem as challenge blearn from the lagoon sidecworry your problem denter into cemeteriesba study of more than five million books, both fiction and non-fiction, has found a marked decline in the use of emotional words over timethe researchers form the university of bristol used google ngram viewer, a facility for finding the frequency of terms in scanned books, to search for more than 600 particular words identified as representing anger, dislike, fear, joy, sadness and surprisethey found that almost all of the categories showed a drop in these “mood words” over timeonly in the category of fear was there an increase in usage“it is a steady and continuous decrease,” said dr alberto acerbihe assumed that the result might be explained by a change in the position occupied by literature, in a crowded media landscape“one thing could be that in parallel to books the 20th century saw the start of other mediamaybe these media movies, radio, drama, had more emotional content than books”although both joy and sadness followed the general downwards trend, the research, published in the journal plos one, found that they also exhibited another interesting behaviour：the ratio （比率） between the two varied greatly, apparently mirroring historical eventsduring the roaring twenties the joy-to-sadness ratio reached a peak that would not occur again until before the recent financial crashbut the ratio plunged at the height of the second world warnevertheless, the researchers held a reserved opinion about their claim that their result reflected wider social trendsin the paper, they even argue that the reverse could be true“it has been suggested, for example, that it was the suppression （压抑） of desire in ordinary elizabethan english life that increased demand for writing filled with romance and sex perhaps,” they conclude, “songs and books may not reflect the real population any more than catwalk models reflect the average body”25the word
