A new study from Carnegie Mellon University 41 anger may help you 42 the negative effects of stress and help you become healthier.“Here getting emotional is not bad for you if you look at the case of anger,” said Jennifer Lerner of Carnegie Mellon. “The more you display anger, the lower your 43 responses.”Lerner studied 92 UCLA students by asking them to count back from 6,200. They must say out loud every 13th number. Researchers interfered(干扰) with them by asking them to 44 faster or ask them other questions. If they made any 45 , they had to restart from the very beginning. Many students felt depressed(沮丧的) about making so many mistakes or got angry 46 the researchers were 47 them.Lerner used a 48 video camera and recorded all their facial 49 during the test. The researchers 50 their reactions as fear, anger and disgust. Other researchers recorded the students blood pressure, pulse and production of a high-stress hormone(荷尔蒙) called cortical.People whose faces showed more 51 during the experiment had higher blood pressure and higher levels of the hormone. Both can have lasting effects such as Diabetes, heart disease, depression and weight gain. When people feel fear, negative impacts (冲击、影响) 52 , but when they get angry, those negatives go down, according to the 53 . “Having that sense of anger 54 people to actually feel some power in what 55 is a maddening (令人发狂的) situation,” Lerner said.”Lerner previously studied Americans emotional response to the 9.11 terrorist attacks two months after the incident. He found people who reacted with 56 were more optimistic(乐观的). These people are healthier 57 with those who were frightened during the event.So in maddening 58 , anger is not a 59 thing to have. Its a 60 response than fear. 41. A. showsB. suggestsC. expressesD. insists42. A. dropB. reduceC. loseD. throw43. A. mistakeB. sadnessC. stressD. anger44. A. readB. writeC. speakD. count45.

They may think that eating lunch is the cause of the sleepiness. Or, in summer, they may think it is the heat. However, the real reason lies inside their bodies. At that time about eight hours after you wake up your body temperature goes down. This is what makes you slow down and feel sleepy. Scientists have tested sleep habits in experiments where there was no night or day. The people in these experiments almost always followed a similar sleeping pattern. They slept for one long period and then for one short period about eight hours later.In many parts of the world, people take naps(小睡) in the middle of the day. This is especially true in warmer climates(气候), where the heat makes work difficult in the early afternoon. Researchers are now saying that naps are good for everyone in any climate. A daily nap gives one a more rested body and mind and therefore is good for health in general. In countries where naps are traditional (传统的), people often suffer less from problem such as heart disease.Many working people, unfortunately, have no time to take naps. Though doctors may advise taking naps, employers do not allow it! If you do have the chance, however, here are a few tips about making the most of your nap. Remember that the best time to take a nap is about eight hours after you get up. A short sleep too late in the day may only make you feel more tired and sleepy afterward. This can also happen if you sleep for too long. If you do not have enough time, try a short nap even ten minutes of sleep can be helpful. 61. Why do people feel sleepy in the early afternoon according to the text? A. They eat too much for lunch.B. They sleep too little at night. C. Their body temperature becomes lower.D. The weather becomes a lot warmer.62. If you get up at 6:30 am, what is the best time for you to take a nap? A. About 12:30 pm. B. About 1:30 pm. C. About 2:30 pm D. About 3:30 pm63. What would be the best title for the text? A. Just for a Rest B. All for a Nap C. A Special Sleep Pattern.D. Taking Naps in Warmer Climate.BThere was a gardener who looked after his garden with great care. To water his flowers, he used two buckets（水桶）. One was a shiny and new bucket. The other was a very old and dilapidated one, which had seen many years of service, but was now past its best.Every morning, the gardener would fill up the two buckets. Then he would carry them along the path, one on each side, to the flowerbeds. The new bucket was very proud of itself. It could carry a full bucket of water without a single drop spilled (溢出). The old bucket felt very ashamed because of its holes: before it reached the flowerbeds, much water had leaked along the path.Sometimes the new bucket would say, “See how capable I am! How good it is that the gardener has me to water the flowers every day! I dont know why he still bothers with you. What a waste of space you are!”And all that the old bucket could say was, “I know Im not very useful, but I can only do my best. Im happy that the gardener still finds a little bit of use in me, at least.”One day, the gardener heard that kind or conversation. After watering the flowers as usual, he said, “You both have done your work very well. Now I am going to carry you back. I want you to look carefully along the path.”Then the two buckets did so. All along the path, they noticed, on the side where the new bucket was carried, there was just bare (光秃秃的)earth; on the other side where the old bucket was carried, there was a joyous row of wild flowers, leading all the way to the garden.64. What does the underlined word “dilapidated” probably mean?A. dirty B. dark C. worn-out D. plain-looking.65. What was the old bucket ashamed of?A. His past. B. His aging. C. His manner. D. His leaking.66. The new bucket made conversations with the old one mainly to A. laugh at the old one B. take pity on the old oneC. show off its beautiful looks D. praise the gardeners kindness67. Why was the old bucket still kept by the gardener?A. Because it was used to keep a balance B. Because it stayed in its best conditionC. Because it was taken as a treasure D. Because it had its own functionCHoney(蜂蜜)from the African forest is not only a kind of natural sugar, it is also delicious. Most people, and many animals, like eating it. However, the only way for them to get that honey is to find a wild bees nest(巢)and take the honey from it. Often, these nests are high up in trees, and it is difficult to find them. In parts of Africa, though, people and animals looking for honey have a strange and unexpected helper一a little bird called a honey guide.The honey guide does not actually like honey, but it does like the wax (蜂蜡) in the beehives (蜂房). The little bird cannot reach this wax, which is deep inside the bees nest. So, when it finds a suitable nest, it looks for someone to help it. The honey guide gives a loud cry that attracts the attention of both passing animals and people. Once it has their attention, it flies through the forest, waiting from time to time for the curious animal or person as it leads them to the nest. When they finally arrive at the nest, the follower reaches in to get at the delicious honey as the bird patiently waits and watches. Some of the honey, and the wax, always falls to the ground, and this is when the honey guide takes its share. Scientists do not know why the honey guide likes eating the wax, but it is very determined in its efforts to get it. The birds seem to be able to smell wax from a long distance away. They will quickly arrive whenever a beekeeper is taking honey from his beehives, and will even enter churches when beeswax candles are being lit.68. Why is it difficult to find a wild bees nest?A. Its small in size. B. Its hidden in trees.C. Its covered with wax. D. Its hard to recognize.69. What do the words the follower in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. A bee. B. A bird. C. A honey seeker. D. A beekeeper.70. The honey guide is special in the way_. A. it gets its food B. it goes to church C. it sings in the forest D. it reaches into bees nests71. What can be the best title for the text? A. Wild Bees B. Wax and Honey C. Beekeeping in Africa D. Honey-Lovers Helper D Do dogs understand us?Be careful what you say around your dog. It might understand more than you think.A border collie (牧羊狗) named Rico recognizes the names of about 200 objects, say researchers in Germany. The dog also appears to be able to learn new words as easily as a 3-year-old child. Its word-learning skills are as good as those of a parrot or chimpanzee (黑猩猩).In one experiment, the researchers took all 200 items that Rico is supposed to know and divided them into 20 groups of 10 objects. Then the owner told the dog to go and fetch one of the items and bring it back. In four tests, Rico got 37 out of 40 commands right. As the dog couldnt see anyone to get clues, the scientists believe Rico must understand the meanings of certain words.In another experiment, the scientists took one toy that Rico had never seen before and put it in a room with seven toys whose names the dog already knew. The owner then told Rico to fetch the object, using a word the dog had never heard before.The correct object was chosen in seven out of l0 tests, suggesting that the dog had workedout the answer by process of elimination (排除法). A month later, Rico remembered half of the new names, which is even more impressive. Rico is thought to be smarter than the average dog. For one thing, Rico is a border collie, a breed (品种) known for its mental abilities. In addition, the 9-year-old dog has been trained to fetch toys by their names since the age of nine months.Its hard to know if all dogs understand at least some of the words we say. Even if they do, they cant talk back. Still, it wouldnt hurt to sweet-talk your dog every now and then. You might just get a big, wet kiss in return!72. From paragraph 2 we know that .A. animals are as clever as human beings B. dogs are smarter t
