and possibly cancer Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way Others burst with anger and scream and yell But other people keep their anger inside They can not or will not express it This is called repressing anger For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person s health than expressing it They said that when a person is angry the brain releases the same hor mones 荷尔蒙 They speed the heart rate raise blood pressure or sugar into the blood etC In general the person feels excited and ready to act Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous They believe that those who express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease and they believe that those who keep their anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure Doctors say the solution is learning how to deal with anger They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about If it is they say Do not express your anger while angry Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry They said that laughter

ever taught in has ever ignored spelling or considered it unimportant as a basic skill There are however different ideas about how to teach it or how much priority 优先 it must be given over general language development and writing ability The problem is how to encourage a child to express himself freely and confidently in writing without holding him back with the complexities 复杂性 of spelling If spelling becomes the only focal 焦点的 point of his teacher s interest clearly a bright child will be likely to play safe He will tend to write only words within his spelling range choosing to avoid adventurous language That s why teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about a personal experience This work is terrible There are far too many spelling errors and your writing is terrible It may have been a sharp criticism of the pupil s technical abilities in writing but it was also a sad reflection on the teacher who had omitted 省略 to read the essay which contained some beautiful expressions of the child s deep feelings The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the errors but if his priorities had centered on the child s ideas an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more motivation 动机 to seek improvement 1 Teachers are different in their opinions about A he difficulties in teaching spelling B the role of spelling in general language development C the complexities of the basic writing skills D the necessity of teaching spelling 2 The underlined expression play safe probably means A to write carefully B to do as teachers say C to use dictionaries frequently D to avoid using words one is not sure of 3 Teachers encourage the use of dictionaries so that A students will be able to express their ideas more freely B students will have more confidence in writing C students will have less trouble in correcting mistakes D students will learn to be independent of teachers 4 The author seems to think that the teacher s judgment on that sensitive piece of writing is A unfair B reasonable C foolish D careless 三 Perhaps the most famous theory the study of body movement was suggested by Professor Ray Birdwhistell He believes that physical appearance is often culturally programmed In other words we learn our looks we are not born with them A baby has generally informed face features A baby according to Birdwhistell learns where to set the eyebrows by looking at those around family and friends This helps explain why the people of some areas of the US looks much alike New Englanders or Southerners have certain common face features that can not be explained by genetics 遗传学 The exact shape of the mouth is not set at birth it is learned after In fact the final mouth shape is not formed until well after new teeth are set For many this can be well into grown ups A husband and wife together for a long time often come to look somewhat alike We learn our looks from those around us This is perhaps why in a single country there are areas where people smile more than those in other areas In the US for example the south is the part of the country where the people smile most frequently In New England they smile less and in the western part of New York States still less Many southerners find cities such as New York cold and unfriendly partly because people in Madison Avenue smile less than people on Peachtree Street in Atlanta Georgia People in largely populated areas also smile and greet each other in public less than people in small towns do 1 Ray Birdwhistell believes that physical appearance A has little to do with culture B has much to do much culture C is ever changing D is different from place to place 2 According to the passage the final mouth shape is formed A before birth B as soon as one s teeth are newly set C some time after new teeth are set D around 15 years old 3 Ray Birdwhistell can tell what area of the US a person is from by A how much he or she smiles B how he or she raise his or her eyebrows C what he or she likes best D the way he or she talks 4 People who live are more friendly A in largely populated areas B in New York City C in the country D in the North 四 EFL TEACHERS Summer Posts Once

picture of the president wrote Kill Bush across the top and drew a sword stabbing his outstretched hand She later replaced her page after learning in her eighth grade history class that such threats are a federal offense It was too late Federal authorities had found the page and placed Wilson on their checklist They finally reached her this week in her biology class The 14 year old was taken out

for making the threat They yelled at me a lot she said They were unnecessarily mean Wilson and her parents said the agents were justified in questioning her over her MyS posting But they said the agents went too far by not waiting until she was out of school and the agents should have more quickly figured out they weren t dealing with a real danger Assistant Principal Paul Robinon said the agents gave him the impression the girl s mother knew they were planning to question her daughter at school There is no legal requirement that parents be notified This has been an on going problem

asked What do dogs and cats need a lawyer for The move meant giving up eight weeks vacation an office with a view of the San Francisco Bay and a big house among the redwoods and moving to a rural area know for its harsh winters But Winograd s wife Jennifer also an animal lover was all for it So they packed everything they owned and with two young children plus two dogs and a bunch of cats Winograd had rescued drove cross country On the second day they had no room for six more puppies they received They found an old horse trough filled it with hay and nestled the animals inside They placed it next to the front desk and within a day or two all six had homes adopted by people who walked into the shelter and couldn t resist Blind dogs cats with missing limbs all find homes There is no dog or cat too old too ugly or too undesirable not to be adopted by someone says Winograd Today Tompkins County is considered the only no kill county in the United States Nine out of ten dogs cats that come through the shelter doors are saved Only animals with incurable injuries or illnesses and the truly evil are put down The national average is half of all dogs and 70 percent of cats totaling more than four million animals last year alone Even though he drives an old car that leaks when it rains and his family lives on a tight budget while his classmates from Stanford Law earn six figure salaries Winograd says he s doing what he d always wanted to do when he grew up run an animal shelter and save all the animals As a young district lawyer he kept his goal in mind starting when he raised his first animal cruelty case A man was accused of intentionally setting his brown cat on fire Winograd made his case and the abusive owner was sentenced to prison It was the first of many such cases and he raised each with vigor But the senseless violence neglect and ignorance never failed to shock him He decided simply I need to get to the other side and start saving these animals Now Winograd is
