Please follow these rules to make the journey of your life a journey of joy! Staying positive through the cold season could be your best defense against getting ill, new study findings suggest.

In an experiment that exposed healthy volunteers to a cold or flu virus, researchers found that people with a generally sunny disposition (性格) were less likely to fall ill. The findings, published in the journal Psychosomatic Medicine, build on evidence that a \"positive emotional style\" can help ward off the common cold and other illnesses.

Researchers believe the reasons may be both objective as in happiness boosting immune function and subjective as in happy people being less troubled by a scratchy throat or runny nose. \"People with a positive emotional style may have different immune response to the virus,\" explained lead study author Dr Sheldon Cohen of Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh. \"And when they do get a cold, they may interpret their illness as being less severe.\" Cohen and his colleagues had found in a previous study that happier people seemed less likely to catch a cold, but some questions remained as to whether the emotional trait itself had the effect.

For the new study, the researchers had 193 healthy adults with complete standard measures of personality traits, self-perceived health and emotional \"style\". Those who tended to be happy, energetic and easy-going were judged as having a positive emotional style, while those who were often unhappy, tense and

hostile had a negative style. The researchers gave them nose drops containing either a cold virus or a particular flu virus. Over the next six days, the volunteers reported on any aches, pains, or sneezing (打喷嚏) they had, while the researchers collected objective data. Cohen and his colleagues found that based on objective measures of nasal woes (鼻部的不适), happy people were less likely to develop a cold. 1.

The new study findings in the experiment suggest that _________.

A. Being optimistic is more probable to keep healthy.

B. Staying positive is more likely to catch cold.

C. Having a negative emotion is harmful to the character.

D. Having a good disposition is more likely to get ill. 2.

The phrase \"ward off\" in Paragraph 2 most probably means \"_________\". A. set aside

B. give in

C. shrug off

D. keep away 3.

It can be inferred from Dr. Sheldon Cohen's interpretation that ______________.

A. people with a positive emotion are more likely to regard their illness as less serious.

B. people with a negative emotion are more likely to boost immune function to the virus.

C. people with a positive emotion are more likely to interpret their illness objectively.

D. people with a negative emotion are more likely to interpret their illness subjectively.

4.

It can be learnt from the passage that the benefits of having a positive emotional style are _____________. A. still dubious

B. to be further studied

C. proven by scientific research

D. self-evident 5.

Which of the following would be the best TITLE for the passage?

A. A Happy Journey Full of Joy

B. The Health Benefits of Staying Positive

C. Scientific Evidence of Staying Healthy

D. The Secrets of Staying Positive

Questions 6 to 10 are based on the same passage or dialog. According to the new school of scientists, technology is an overlooked force in expanding the horizons of scientific knowledge. Science moves forward, they say, not so much through the insights of great men of genius as because of more ordinary things like improved techniques and tools. In short, a leader of the new school contends (声称), the scientific revolution, as we call it, was largely the improvement and invention and use of a series of instruments that expanded the reach of science in innumerable (无数的) directions.

Over the years, tools and technology themselves as a source of fundamental innovation (创新) have largely been ignored by historians and philosophers of science. The modern school that hails technology argues that such masters as Galileo, Newton, Maxwell, Einstein, and inventors such as Edison attached great importance to, and derived great benefit from, craft information and technological devices of different kinds that were usable in scientific experiments.

The core of the argument of a technology-yes, genius-no advocate was an analysis of Galileo's role at the start of the scientific revolution. The wisdom of the day was derived from Ptolemy, an astronomer of the second century, whose elaborate system of the sky put Earth at the center of all heavenly motions. Galileo's greatest glory was that in 1609 he was the first person to turn the newly invented telescope on the heavens to prove that the planets revolve around the sun rather than around the earth. But the real hero of the story, according to the new school of scientists, was the long evolution in the improvement of machinery for making eyeglasses.

Federal policy is necessarily involved in the technology vs. genius dispute. Whether the Government should increase the financing of pure science at the expense of technology or vice versa (反之) often depends on the issue of which is seen as the driving force. 6.

What leads to the expansion of science in terms of the new school of scientists?

A. The creative ideas of the great minds.

B. The scientific knowledge of the geniuses.

C. The improvement of ordinary tools and techniques.

D. The neglected force in scientific innovations. 7.

What is the nature of scientific revolution according to a leader of the new school?

A. It helps to invent a series of new instruments.

B. It is actually the result of the development of a series of instruments.

C. It pushes the science toward a particular direction.

D. It has improved the techniques in innumerable directions. 8.

Why does modern school of scientists pay attention to the invention and improvement of tools and technology?

A. Because they can be applied in scientific experiments.

B. Because they are greatly admired by scientists and inventors.

C. Because they are overlooked by historians and philosophers.

D. Because they can be served as a source of basic innovations. 9.

What can be inferred from the statement \"the real hero of the story, ..., was the long evolution in the improvement of machinery for making eyeglasses\"?

A. The role of Galileo at the start of the scientific revolution was underestimated.

B. Ptolemy was the first astronomer to elaborate the system of heavenly motions.

C. The improved technology and machinery contributed to Galileo's great discovery.

D. Galileo proved that the sun rather than the earth is the center of the universe.

10. What conclusion can be drawn from the last paragraph?

A. The government's decision on its finance allocation is determined by its opinion on the priority between science and technology.

B. The government has developed pure science at the expense of technology.

C. The government has attached more importance to technology than pure science.

D. The government will no longer increase the financial support to pure science.

Questions 11 to 15 are based on the same passage or dialog. A certain amount of controversy has been caused by the

publication of a new report by a team of educationalists headed by Pro. B. J. Smith. The report claims to have statistical evidence that children who attend a number of different schools through their parents' having to move around the country are more than normally vulnerable to a vicious cycle of low academic achievement. There are also indications, says Professor Smith, of an unusually high rate of psychological dismay among such children.

The professor, who has long suspected that the effect on children whose parents travel to different parts of the country in search of work has not been sufficiently researched, stresses that this is not merely an expression of prejudice. \"We are not dealing here with opinions,\" he says, \"It's true, my personal feeling is that for children's well-being, they should stay in one school. However, our findings are based on research and not on any personal attitudes that I or my colleagues may have on the subject.\"

Capt. Thomas Muller, an Army lecturer for the past 20 years and himself a father of two, said, \"I've never heard such rubbish. As far as I'm concerned, absolutely no harm is done to the education of children who change schools regularly — as long as they keep to the same system as in our Army school. In my experience — and I've known quite a few of them — Army children are as well-adjusted as any others, if not more so. What the Professor doesn't appear to appreciate is the fact that in such situations children will adapt much better than adults.\"

When this was put to Professor Smith, he said that at no time had his team suggested that all such children were backward or dismayed in some way, but simply that in their experience there was a clear tendency.

\"Our findings indicate that while the extremely bright child can cope with regular emotional turbulence without harming his or her general academic progress, the majority of children suffer from constantly having to enter a new learning environment.\"

11. What does Professor Smith's report suggest?

A. Children shouldn't change schools too often.

B. Children who attend different schools are more vulnerable to vicious diseases.

C. Children who have to move around the country are better at academic achievement.

D. Children attending many schools have caused a certain amount of controversy.

12. What does Professor Smith think of the findings of the

research?

A. They may merely be an expression of prejudice.

B. They are just based on his personal feeling.

C. They are proved by the research.

D. They are based on personal attitudes.

13. What does Capt. Thomas Muller think of children who change

schools regularly?

A. They find it difficult to keep to the same system.

B. They do no harm to the education.

C. They are generally ill-adjusted.

D. They can actually deal with the new environment better than adults.

14. How does Professor Smith defend himself again Capt.

Thomas Muller?

A. He stresses that the majority of children tend to suffer from constantly adapting to a new learning environment.

B. He argues that only a few children will suffer from changing schools regularly.

C. He believes that extremely bright child likes to enter a new learning environment.

D. He suggests that children having regular emotional turbulence do not harm their academic progress.

15. What does the passage mainly talk about?

A. The procedure Professor Smith followed to conduct a study.

B. Whether children would be affected by changing schools regularly.

C. The opinions people have about children who often change schools.

D. How army children get used to a new learning environment.

Questions 16 to 20 are based on the same passage or dialog. Recently there has been a tendency to sympathize with thieves

whose operations have been carried out on a grand scale, and no attempt whatever has been made to hold them responsible. Some of the most thievish (像窃贼的) transactions have flourished and are still flourishing. Their success and their wealth are the only things recognized. They are honored as financiers and men of affairs, looked up to and respected.

In reality they are nothing more and nothing less than a lot of merciless and heartless thieves. Fraud is fraud and cheating is cheating despite the artistic manner in which it is committed or the size of the scale upon which it is operated.

It is time these men were classed properly and placed where they rightly belong, for they are no better than the miserable sneak-thief who steals a penny from a blind man's dog.

For the past two or three years working people who have made sacrifices to save a few pennies have been cheated most unmercifully. Their hard-earned savings have been stolen from them by every possible scheme from the obvious looting (打劫) of a bank to the higher and more artistic method of legalized high risk, complex financial products. Men high up in the financial world have lent their names to some of the most shady and notorious schemes that ever dishonored a community or a people. Because of this the most diligent and economical (节俭的) American people have been induced to place their hard-earned and carefully guarded savings in what they were led to believe was a safe investment, only to find out when too late that they had fallen into the hands of a gang of extremely respectable cheats. They cannot recover what they have lost.

The thief is too powerful to be affected by the law while the victim is too weak to put its machinery in motion. It may be that the law is defective, or it may be that those having its machinery in charge are influenced by the wealth of the transgressors (违犯者). Whatever or whichever it is that is responsible ought to be investigated and the evil remedied.

16. What does the tendency mentioned in the first paragraph

reflect?

A. People only respect success and wealth without any moral judgment.

B. People prefer to carry out operations on a grand scale.

C. People have made attempt to hold thieves responsible.

D. People encourage some of the most thievish transactions to flourish.

17. How did working people lose their hard-earned savings?

A. They were robbed by the thieves nearby.

B. They were unlucky in investment.

C. They lent their money to men high up in the financial world.

D. They were cheated by the bank.

18. When the writer says \"a gang of extremely respectable

cheats\" in Paragraph Four, it is implied that . A. they are respectable in artistic cheating

B. they are well-educated but ill-behaved

C. they are not well-educated but respected

D. they are cheats with respectable goals

19. What could be a possible reason for the thieves to escape

from law according to the passage?

A. They are powerful enough to ignore the law.

B. There are defects in the law.

C. The victim is too weak to investigate them.

D. They are wealthy enough to compensate the victims.

20. It can be inferred from the passage that .

A. any thief should be punished

B. moral standards are always upheld

C. there are too many thieves and robbers

D. industrious and honest people should be highly paid
