in the other, some were stressed by having to keep their hands in ice water. in both cases, the stressed participants remembered the rewarded material more accurately and the punished material less accurately than those who hadnt gone through the stress.this phenomenon is likely not surprising to anyone who has tried to resist eating cookies or smoking a cigarette while under stressat those moments, only the pleasure associated with such activities comes to mind. but the findings further suggest that stress may bring about a double effect. not only are rewarding experiences remembered better, but negative consequences are also easily recalled.the research also found that stress appears to affect decisionmaking differently in men and women. while both men and women tend to focus on rewards and less on consequences under stress, their responses to risk turn out to be different.men who had been stressed by the coldwater task tended to take more risks in the experiment while women responded in the opposite way. in stressful situations in which risktaking can pay off big, men may tend to do better; when caution weighs more, however, women will win.this tendency to slow down and become more cautious when decisions are risky might also help explain why women are less likely to become addicted than men: they may more often avoid making the risky choices that eventually harden into addiction.64we can learn from the passage that people under pressure tend to _.akeep rewards better in their memorybrecall consequences more effortlesslycmake risky decisions more frequentlydlearn a subject more effectively65according to the research, stress affects people most probably in their _.aways of making choicesbpreference for pleasurectolerance of punishmentsdresponses to suggestions66the research has proved that in a stressful situation, _.awomen find it easier to fall into certain habitsbmen have a greater tendency to slow downcwomen focus more on outcomesdmen are more likely to take risks【要点综述】本文主要讲述的是压力对人做出决定的影响以及男女在面对压力时决定方式的不同。64. a细节理解题。根据文章第四段“in both cases, the stressed participants remembered the rewarded material more accurately and the punished material less accurately than those who hadnt gone through the stress.”可知a为正确答案。65. a推理判断题。根据文章标题和实验内容，可知作者要说明的是“the research suggests that stress may change the way people make choices in predictable ways.”(第二段)。所以选a。66. d细节理解题。根据文章第七段“men who had been stressed by the coldwater task tended to take more risks in the experiment while women responded in the opposite way.”可知d为正确选项。*结束olympia, march 24luo xuejuan, a swimming gold medalist at the athens 2004 olympic games, became the first chinese person to relay the olympic flame in greece on monday, receiving the flame from the first olympic torchbearer(火炬手)，greek alexandros nikolaidis.despite her previous experience as a torchbearer in the beijing leg of the athens 2004 torch relay, luo felt honored and proud of being chosen as the first chinese torchbearer, the xihua news agency reported luo as saying in an interview.she talked about the great responsibility(责任) that she felt, as she believed she was representing every chinese athlete and even chinese person by running her leg of the relay.regarding missing the torch lighting ceremony because she had to be in an assigned location to wait for the flame, luo felt no regret. “even though i couldnt see it, i was able to feel the flame light and knew that it was happening at a place nearby,” she said.luo expressed her belief that even if people couldnt communicate with words, the olympic flame enables the transmission of the olympic spirit and brings smiles wherever it might go. in luos mind, the olympic spirit represents purity, competition, friendship, enthusiasm, peace and harmony.56. why didnt luo see the torch lighting ceremony?a. she was late for the ceremony. b. she was not allowed to go there.c. she waited for the flame as the next torchbearer. d. the ceremony took place at a place far away.57. choose the best explanation for the underlined word “leg” in paragraph three.a. one of the long parts that connect the feet to the rest of the body. b. the part of a pair of trousers.c. one of the long thin parts on the bottom of a table. d. one part of a journey or race.58. which of the following is true according to the passage?a. luo xuejuan was the first olympic torchbearer in greece.b. luo had never been selected as a torchbearer before.c. luo believed that the olympic flame helped communication among people.d. luo felt regretful because she missed the torch lighting ceremony.59. whats the best title of the passage?a. luo xuejuan: a swimming gold medalist. b. the torch lighting ceremonyc. the torch relay had begun d. luo xuejuan: the first chinese torchbearer of athens torch relay60. this passage is most likely to be seen in a _.a. novel b. newspaper c. magazine d. textbook参考答案-5660 cdcdb*结束c82012安徽卷 awelcome to one of the largest collections of footwear(鞋类)in the world that will make you green with envy. here at the footwear museum you can see exhibits(展品)from all over the world. you can find out about shoes worn by everyone from the ancient egyptians to pop stars. room 1the celebrity(名人)footwear section is probably the most popular in the entire museum. started in the 1950s there is a wide variety of shoes and boots belonging to everyone from queens and presidents to pop stars and actors! most visitors find the celebrities choice of footwear extremely interesting.room 2most of our visitors are amazedand shockedby the collection of “special purpose” shoes on exhibition here at the museum of footwear. for example, there are chinese shoes made of silk that were worn by women to tie their feet firmly to prevent them from growing too much！room 3as well as shoes and boots, the museum also exhibits shoeshaped objects. the variety is unbelievable. for example, there is a metal lamp that resembles a pair of shoes, and greek wine bottles that look like legs！the footwear librarypeople
