dogeatdog world？what if caring for a dog or for a mom with alzheimers(老年痴呆症) makes you stronger and allows you to live longer?researchers at the university of california，berkeley are challenging our longheld belief that humans are born to be selfish.darwins theory of evolution by natural selection was misunderstood by his male followers，the researchers say.rather than “every man for himself”，darwin believed that humans are successful as a species precisely because of our educational，selfless and sympathetic characteristics.why has it taken so long for darwins central revelation(揭示) to be properly understood？“weve had too many men in social science，” berkeley psychology professor dacher keltner told me from an interview.“female scientists acknowledge that caring for people is part of human nature according to the research，which shows the human ability to care exists in our brains and nerve systems.”in my book passages in caregiving，i urge women who take the whole responsibility for taking care of an elderly parent or a sick relative to build a “circle of care”reach out to your brothers and sisters，friends，neighbors and community volunteers to help you care，because no one can perform this overwhelming role alone.you will be as shocked as i to learn how the most selfless caregivers are rewarded with longer life.sympathy is not a womans word.in fact it makes all of us stronger under stress and more highly respected by our peers.for so long we have repeated the false saying “nice guys finish last”but the 40 richest americans committed to doing good by donating half their fortunes are no_spring_chickens.so here is my new explanation：nice guys die last.56the first paragraph serves to_.agive the background of the topicbblame the world for selfishnesscbring out the topic of the passagedurge people to care for a dog57the underlined words “no spring chickens” in the last paragraph refer to_.arich people bpoor peoplecyoung people daged people58why does the author mention the 40 richest americans commitment in this passage?ato argue against offering sympathy.bto use it as an example to support his opinion.cto show their generosity to society.dto call on people to learn from them.59which of the following might be the best title of the passage?ameasures must be taken to improve the worldbdarwins theory of evolution is out of date nowcselflessness could be the secret to longer lifedmales and females have different opinions about selflessnessbthere are many scientists that study people who often lived hundreds or even thousands of years ago；we call them anthropologists.items those primitive men，women，and children left behind when they diedeverything from clothing to jewelry and toolstell anthropologists a lot.and sometimes even their words survive.experts believe that a discovery in mexico is the oldest example of writing ever found in america.the people who created it probably lived 3,000 years ago，long before christopher columbus arrived in the new world.workers digging in a rock mine happened to notice a stone block with marks carved onto its surface.they found the large piece of stone near the city of cascajal，mexico，which was once the capital of an ancient people called the olmec.“there are signs on the block that seem to show objects used by the olmec during their religious ceremonies，”says dr. stephen houston，of brown university in the us.“there is a sign that looks very similar to a knife and another that looks like the chair of a king，”he explains.houston，an expert on the writing systems of ancient cultures，says，“the discovery is exciting because it makes clear that the olmec could read and write.it is like hearing voices from the past.”but experts dont know exactly what the writing says.finding other examples of olmec writing could help decipher_the_puzzle.“we could have whole sets of ancient writing which will basically make ancient people speak to us directly，”says houston.“there are many puzzles to be solved，and this is just one of them.”60why do we think the stone block mentioned in the passage is important?ait allows scientists to translate the ancient language used in this area.bit proves that people lived in this part of the world more than 3,000 years ago.cit shows the people of the area had a written language.dit is the evidence of the oldest form of writing ever found in america.61why are scientists interested in ancient languages?abecause they can learn stories told during that time.bbecause they can speak directly with ancient people.cbecause it can allow them to understand ancient societies better.dbecause it will help them learn about the origins of modern languages.62which of the following can replace the underlined expression in paragraph 6?afind the meaning of the olmec language.bdiscover when the olmec people lived.clearn why the olmec civilization disappeared.dlearn how to speak olmec.63which is probably the best title for the passage?anew language discoveredbworlds first bookcoldest writing in the new worlddwhat does it say?cthe benefits of helping othersmost of us have needed help with something at some point in our lives.the old saying “no man is an island” is absolutely true.and where would we be if someone hadnt been there to help us through?humans seem to be born with the ability to help one another.the need to survive drives us to be there for one another，even strangers.in the united states，the practice of helping others can be traced back to the countrys origins when settlers first arrived on the land.the hardships of the group required each member to look out for the other.by taking care of the group，each person was in effect taking care of himself.the benefits of helping others can come in different forms.of course theres recognition.for some，recognition from others is a precious gift，and they need nothing more.new research indicates that helping others raises quality of life for the helpers themselves.when we volunteer our time to do something for others，such as helping out an elderly neighbour or taking part in a local community project，it can be good news for our health，our childrens study and even reduce the local crime rate，too.helping others also brings good feelings to the giver and the receiver of the good deeds.using your special gifts to help others can be a_gift to yourself as you enjoy a selfesteem(自尊心) boost for making others lives better and the world a better place.real happiness is difficult to define and is different for different peoples and cultures，but what is clear is that community and having strong relationships with others are key to achieving happiness.its been said that the best way to heal grief，or hurt is to help someone else heal theirs.perhaps in doing so，we find the hope for ourselves.64the old saying in the first paragraph tells us that_.aeach needs helpbeach needs to be independentceach must be a helperdeach has life problems65the writer believes that children from a volunteers family will be more likely to_.agrow physically strongbreceive recognition from otherscachieve higher gradesdget used to a new school environment66what does “a gift”(underlined in paragraph 5) refer to?aa good relationship with others.ba positive feeling.cpraise from others.dgood health.67whats the purpose of the passage?ato show the rewards of helping others.bto discuss the art of happiness.cto tell how to help ourselves by helping others.dto tell how to heal grief.da new study has found that making someone laugh is one of the best ways to woo(求婚) ones lover.however，researchers have discovered that not all humor is equal.the quickest path to success is to use a very specific form of wit：selfdeprecation.“many studies show that a sense of humour is attractive to women，especially to their girlfriends，but weve found that selfdeprecating humour is the most attractive of all，” said anthropologist gil greengross.one possible explanation is that taking_the_mickey_out_of_oneself is a highrisk strategy.“it is a risky form of humour because it can draw attention to ones real faults，thereby diminishing(缩小) the selfdeprecators status in the eyes of others.but based on the idea that selfdeprecating humour can be an especially reliable indicator not only of general intelligence and creativity，but also of moral virtues such as humility.”anthropologist kate fox，author of watching the english，believes selfdeprecation is uniquely vital for those with an english cultural background，“for the english，the rules of humour are the cultural equivalent of natural lawswe obey them automatically，rather in the way that we obey the law of gravity.”“pomposity(夸耀) and selfimportance are outlawed.serious matters can be spoken of seriously，but one must never take oneself too seriously，” she added.“as long as everyone understands the rules，they are duly impressed both by ones achievements and by ones reluctance(不愿) to talk about them publicly.”however，greengross warns of another danger in the use of selfdeprecation.“if you are a lowstatus individual，using selfdeprecating humour can be disastrous to you，” he said.“think about the secondaryschool child whom nobody liked，who made fun of his shortcoming in sports.his kids laughed at him and he was considered more pathetic(悲惨的) than he was previously.this is highrisk attraction.it is not for everyone.”68what is kate fox?aa filmmaker.ban official at school.ca lawyer.dan expert in studying anthrop
