It is an essential part of what it means to be human, to the extent that we are suspicious of anyone who does not show empathy in their behavior. 46 We read novels, watch television and go to the theatre, and part of our enjoyment comes from understanding the dilemma faced by the characters because we know how we would feel if we were in the same situation. 47 One study has shown animals displaying empathy towards other animals and towards humans. Creatures from across the animal kingdom such as bees and whales, as well as domestic pets, display behavior that suggests they cooperate with and protect each other. In another study, psychiatrist Jules Masserman and his team conducted an experiment with monkeys in which the monkeys pulled one of two chains that released food. One chain simply released the food, while another gave an electric shock to a second monkey. The first monkey stopped pulling the chain that delivered the shock. 48 This empathetic behavior was observed in a number of monkeys. The origin of empathy is probably the need for the young of all animal species to be cared for. They communicate this requirement by crying for attention and to show pain. Both human and non-human young were more likely to survive if their parents reacted positively to their needs. People and animals alike are social beings and are more likely to work together. 49 If we help others, we are also helping ourselves and so empathy is sensible and realistic. We don’t always display empathy, however. Just as animals react aggressively to unknown creatures from their own or other species, humans tend to regard people they don’t know with suspicion. 50 Our unwillingness to trust anyone unfamiliar is as natural to us as our empathy towards those we know and love. A. To feel empathy is not restricted to real life. B. You can empathize with someone without feeling sympathy for them. C. This fear of strangers will, we believe, protect us from personal danger. D. It seemed to be willing to go hungry rather than see a fellow animal suffer. E. However, it seems that in fact empathy may not be a quality unique to humans. F. Empathy plays a role in that as it allows us to understand our fellow humans better. G. It’s certainly difficult to understand an animal’s intention behind an emphatic response. 参考答案: 46. A 47. E 48. D 49. F 50. C [三] Can We Stop Food Longing Through Imaginary Eating? Are you fighting an urge to reach for chocolate? Then, let it melt in your mind, not in your mouth. According to the recent research, imagining eating a specific food reduces your interest in that food, so you eat less of it. This reaction to repeated exposure to food—being less interested in something because you’ve experienced it too much—is called habituation. ____46____ The research is the first to show that habituation can occur through the power of the mind. “If you just think about the food itself—how it tastes and smells—that will increase your appetite,” said Carey Morewedge, a well-known psychologist. “It might be better to force yourself to repeatedly think about chewing and swallowing the food in order to reduce your longing. ____47____ Visualizing yourself eating chocolate wouldn’t prevent you from eating lots of cheese,” he added. Morewedge conducted an interesting experiment. 51 subjects were divided into three groups. One group was asked to imagine putting 30 coins into a laundry machine and then eating three chocolates. ____48____ Another group was asked to imagine putting three coins into a laundry machine and then eating 30 chocolates. Lastly, a control group imagined just putting 33 coins into the machine—with no chocolates. ____49____ When they said they had finished, these were taken away and weighed. The results showed the group that had imagined eating 30 chocolates each ate fewer of the chocolates than the other groups. ____50____ Physical signals—that full stomach feeling—are only part of what tells us we’ve finished a meal. The research suggests that psychological effects, such as habituation, also influence how much a person eats. It may lead to new behavioral techniques for people looking to eat more healthily, or have control over other habits. A. What’s more, this only works with the specific food you’ve imagined. B. People were advised to try different methods to perform the experiment. C. For example, a tenth bite is desired less than the first bite, according to the study. D. All of them then ate freely from bowls containing the same amount of chocolate each. E. It meant those who repeatedly imagined eating would concern about some specific food. F. This requires the same motor skills as eating small chocolates from a packet, the study says. G. This study is part of the research looking into what makes us eat more than we actually need. 参考答案:46—50 CAFDG [四] Color is in everything we touch,taste,smell and feel.It evokes(唤起)emotion without any thought.__36__ We are all familiar with it,but do you know the following facts? Silver will save your life. When buying a new car and finding yourself facing various choices,you can't think clearly. Your best choice is to go with silver. Silvercolored cars are least likely to be involved in a car accident. __37__ Another reason is the silver color's ability to have a look of cleanliness. __38__ Tough prisoners and crazy patients?It is the color commonly used to help calm down those who are out of control. So it surely has a useful place and a purpose,other than decorating a dress or Barbie's dream house. Yellow makes you hungry. Yellow and orange are not recommended for use in kitchens,as they have a positive influence on your appetite.__39__ I'm not normally one for conspiracy(阴谋)theoriesbut perhaps there's something in it for them if we remain ignorant of yellow's effects. Color is an imaginary friend. Technically,it's all in our heads:color does not exist at all. __40__ So,if you start a heated debate over color combinations with someone that you are certain has a low IQ or is just colorblind,remember it's a pointless argument and you should drop it instantly. You're both wrong. A.Pink comforts the nerves. B.Blue is the most common favorite color. C.They are most noticeable on the road and in low light.

G.Color tries to make sense of the huge amount of information from the outer world. 【语篇解读】 本文主要介绍了一些色彩的作用。 36.E 根据上文的“Color is in everything we touch,taste,smell and feel. It evokes (唤起) emotion without any thought”可知,色彩与人们的生活密切相关,可以唤起人们的情感。E项“色彩是人们职业、生活方式和娱乐的焦点”与此呼应,所以选E项。 37.C 根据上文的“Your best choice is to go with silver. Silvercolored cars are least likely to be involved in a car accident”及下文的“Another reason is the silver color's ability to have a look of cleanliness”可知,银色引人注目,不易引起交通事故,所以选C项。 38A 根据下文的“It is the color commonly used to help calm down those who are out of control”可推知,本段所介绍的颜色有定心安神的作用,所以选A项。 39.F 根据下文的“I'm not normally one for conspiracy(阴谋)theoriesbut perhaps there's something in it for them if we remain ignorant of yellow's effects”可推知应选F项,餐馆老板利用色彩的作用招揽更多的顾客。 40.G 根据上文的“Color is an imaginary friend. Technically,it's all in our heads:color does not exist at all”可推知,本段对色彩进行了综合性的客观描述,与G项吻合,所以选G项。 [五] Every culture has its own unwritten list of behavior that is acceptable. Every society also has its taboos, or types of behavior that are considered a violation of good manners. The word taboo comes from the Tongan language and is used in modern English to describe verbal and nonverbal behavior that is forbidden or to be avoided. __36__ They tend to be specific to a culture or country, and usually form around a group's values and beliefs. What is considered acceptable behavior in one country may be a serious taboo in another. Verbal taboos usually involve topics that people believe are too private to talk about publicly, or relate to one's manner of speaking. In many cultures, for example, it is considered bad manners to discuss subjects such as sex or religion in public. In some countries, too much volume of one's voice may annoy people. __37__ __38__ For example, one of the biggest differences among many Western, Asian, and African cultures is the use of eye contact. In the US, people make eye contact when they talk to others. __39__ In many Asian and African cultures, however, children are taught to lower their eyes when talking to their elders, or those of higher rank, as a way to show respect. Certain gestures made with the hands can have very different meanings depending on the country you are in. Crossing your middle finger over your forefinger is the sign for good luck in many Western countries. __40__ Also, in some Asian countries, moving your hands a lot while talking, or “talking with your hands”, is considered unsuitable. Behavior that is acceptable and nonoffensive in one culture can be highly offensive in another. When visiting a foreign country, be aware of some of the basic differences, as this will help to ensure a more enjoyable trip. A.Nonverbal taboos usually relate to body language. B.In Vietnam and Argentina, however, it is a rude gesture. C.In spite of what some people may think, taboos are not universal. D.Cancer is a taboo subject and people are frightened to talk openly about it. E.Learn a country's customs so that you don't hurt the local people unconsciously. F.They might think that someone who is speaking or laughing loudly is rude or aggressive. G.If a person avoids eye contact, others might think they are being dishonest or unconfident. 【语篇解读】 本文主要讲不同国家习俗方面的禁忌,以及肢体语言、手势语的不同运用。 36.C 上句是对taboo的定义,下句讲对于一个国家或一种文化而言它们往往是具体的,通常是围绕着一个团体的价值观和信仰而形成的。由此可以推断,C项(尽管一些人可能这样认为,但禁忌不是通用的)符合语境,起到承上启下的作用。故选C项。 37.F 本段主要讲一些人对禁忌的看法,比如一些私人问题不能在公共场合谈论等。根据设空前一句中的too much volume of one's voice may annoy people可知,在一些国家,说话声音太大会惹恼别人,F项(他们可能认为大声说笑是粗鲁的或充满挑衅的)正好是对上一句的解析。故选F项。 38.A 根据设空后一句中的eye contact可知,本段主要讲眼神接触在不同文化中有不同的要求。眼神接触属于肢体语言,故A项(非语言禁忌通常和肢体语言有关)符合语境。 39.G 本段讲的是眼神接触的作用,根据关键词eye contact可知,G项与该段主题一致,故选G项。 40.B 本段介绍手势语在不同国家的含义。上一句介绍了把中指和食指交叠起来,在很多西方国家意味着好运。下文应该介绍其他国家对此不同的理解,B项“然而在越南和阿根廷,这是一个粗鲁的手势”符合语境,故选B项。 [六] The gorilla (大猩猩) is a shy creature and seldom violent.

Your parents are the people who raised you, devoting time, energy and money to your development. 36 No matter your age, there are 5 ways to show respect. ● Respect their belongings. One important way to show respect is to show regard for the things important to your parents. For younger children, this may mean not touching jewelry or other valuable things.

Call if you're going to be late because parents worry about children, no matter their age. ● 39 Remembering birthdays, anniversaries and other special days is a sign that you honor your parents. Make plans to take them to lunch or dinner or bake a cake or cookies. Most parents don't expect expensive gifts, but a handmade gift is always appreciated .A phone call from a grown child who lives too far for a visit is a welcome sign of respect. ●Be kind. Kind words and affection are simple ways to show respect. Tell your parents you love them. Listen and allow your parents to speak without interruption.

Has your mother or friend told you that you’re an ungrateful person? Do you feel unable to appreciate the world or people around you? Are you obsessed with things you don’t have instead of being thankful for what you do have? 36 then you will definitely need to work on being a more grateful person. Showing gratitude has been put forward in the last few decades. 37 But there are still some tips that help make it possible for you to practice gratitude. Refusing to play the victim is the first step you’re supposed to take. 38 If you want to be grateful, stop complaining the world, your teachers, your friends and your family about not putting themselves in your shoes, and focus on how much they’ve helped and cared about you. Volunteering in your community is another effective way to show how grateful you are for what the world has given you. Whether you’re helping clean up a local park, working in a soup kitchen, or teaching children or adults in your community to learn to read, your perspective towards life will change positively. 39 40 You shouldn’t always be good only to your close friends or family members. You can help a neighbor look for a lost dog. You can also help an old lady carry her grocery. You don’t have to search for these opportunities purposely. Sometimes they will present themselves.
