When a cat is frightened, its heart starts beating faster, its muscles get tense, and there are changes in the chemicals in its bloodstream. Although the cat doesnt realize this, its body is getting ready for action. If the danger continues, the animal will do one or two things. It will defend itself, or it will run away as fast as it can.Something like this also happens to people. When we are excited, angry, scared, or aroused by other emotions (feelings), our bodies go through many physical changes. Our hearts beat faster, and our muscles get tense. All of these changes make us more alert and ready to react. We , too, get ready to defend ourselves or run.Human beings, however, have a problem that animals never face. If we give way to our feelings and let them take over, we can get into trouble. Have you ever said something in anger or hit somebody and regretted it later? Have you ever shouted at a teacher, told somebody you were lonely, or said you were in love, and then wished later you had kept your mouth shut? It isnt always wise to express your feelings freely.Does this mean that its smarter always to hide our feelings? No! If you keep feelings of anger, sadness, bitterness hidden away or bottled up inside, your body stays tense. Physical illness can develop, and you can feel churned up inside. It can actually be bad for your health. (It isnt good to keep pleasant inside, either; all feelings need to be expressed.)Feelings that you keep all bottled up inside dont just go away. Its as if you bought some bananas and stuck them in a cupboard. You might not be able to see them, but before long youd smell them. And if you opened the cupboard, changs are youd see little fruit flies hovering all over them. Theyd rotten.You can try to treat emotions as if they were bananas in the cupboard. You can hide them and you can pretend they dont exist, but they will still be around. And at last you will have to deal with them, just like those bananas.41. What is unlikely to happen when casts are terrified?A. They escape if they think they cant defend themselves.B. Their hearts beat faster.C. Their bodies go through some physical changes.D. They get ready to take actions against any danger.42. What should we do when we experience negative feelings?A.Deal with them effectively. B. See the doctor.C. Keep them bottled up. D. Keep them in the cupboard with the bananas 43. The underlined words “churned up” in the fourth paragraph probably mean _.A. sickB. upset or angryC. pleasantD. Calm44. Why does the writer take bananas in the cupboard as an example?A. To tell the customers they should eat any fruits immediately they buy them.B. To warn readers that bananas go bad easily.C. To prove that its advisable to escape from reality.D. To say that problems exist until they are solved.45. The author writes this article to_.A. suggest that we should share our feelings with our friends.B. give us some advice on how to express our feelings.C. inform us of the effect of telling the truth.D. introduce positive approaches to expressing feelings.第五部分 阅读填空（共20空；每空1分，满分20分）I. 阅读填词 （共10空，每空1分，满分10分）仔细阅读下列短文，根据短文内容和每空所给的首字母，用一个适当的词填空，使短文上下文语义通顺。Nowadays most people decide quite early, what kind of work they would do.

At first, n_50_ of them could suggest anything, but they promised that they would ask their friends. I had to wait at home with nothing to do. Sometimes I looked through evening papers, but I failed to get any information I needed. Then a few days later while I was still in bed, someone telephoned. “Is that Miss Jenkins?” a m_51_ voice asked. “I guess you take great interest in photography and Ive got a job that m_52_ interest you in my clothes factory.
