Sometimes people call each other "freake...

Sometimes people call each other "freaked-cat", but have you ever thought about this expression? 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 doesn't realize this, its body is getting ready for action. If the danger continues, the animal will do one of 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 , 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 isn't always clever to express your feelings freely.

Does this mean that it's smarter always to hide our feelings? No! If you keep feelings of anger, sadness, and bitterness hidden away or bottled up inside, your body stays tense. Physical illness can develop. It can actually be bad for your health. It isn't good to keep pleasant feelings inside either; all feelings need to be expressed.

Feelings that you keep all bottled up inside don't just go away. It's as if you bought some bananas and stuck them in a cupboard. You might not be able to see them. but before long you' d smell them. And if you opened the cupboard, chances are that you'd see little fruit flies flying all over them. They'd be rotten.

You can try to treat emotions as if they were bananas in the cupboard. You can hide them and you can pretend they don't exist, but they'll still be around. And at last you'll have to deal with them. just like those bananas.

1.A 2.B 3.C 4.D 【解析】 试题分析:作者通过"freaked-cat"告诉我们,不良的情绪会对我们的身体产生影响。我们要把不良的情绪发泄出来,不要淤积在心中,那样对我们的身体不好。 1.A 主旨大意题。作者在本文中讲述了当我们兴奋,激动,紧张的时候,我们的身体就会随之发生反应。也就是说情绪和情感能够影响我们的身体。故A正确。 2.B 猜测词义题。根据第二行When a cat is frightened, its heart starts beating faster, its muscles get tense, and there are changes in the chemicals in its bloodstream.中的frightened可知freaked-cat指吓坏了的猫。故B正确。 3.C 推理题。根据文章第三段第一句Human beings, however, have a problem that animals never face.可知人类面临着很多动物没有面临的问题。故C正确。 4. 考点:考查人生感悟类短文也读

I was born and raised in Minnesota, the USA, but as an adult I have mostly lived in Europe and Africa. I teach cross-cultural management at the International Business School near Paris. For the last 15 years, I’ve studied       people in different parts of the world build trust, communicate and make decisions      in the workplace.

While travelling in Tokyo recently with a Japanese       , I gave a shorttalk to a group of 20 managers.      , I asked whether there were any questions or comments. No     went up, so I went to sit down. Mycolleague whispered to me, “I think there          were some comments, Erin.Do you mind if I try?” I agreed, but I guessed it a waste of       . He askedthe group again, “ Any comments or questions”.

Still, no one raised a hand,         this time he looked very carefully at each person in the silent audience. Gesturing to one of them, he said, “ Do you have         to add?” To my amazement, she      “ Yes, thank you.” and asked me a very interesting question. My colleague repeated this several times        the audience and asking for more questions or comments.

After the session, I asked my colleague, “ How did you        that those people had questions?” He      , not sure how to explain it, and then said, “ It has to do with how         their eyes are.”

He continued, “In Japan, we don’t         as much direct eye contact as you do in the west. So when you asked if there are any        , most people were not looking directly at you. But a few people in the          were looking right at you and their eyes were bright. That         that they would be      to have you call on them.

I thought to myself I would ever have learned from upbringing in Minnesota. Since then, I try to       understanding behavior in other cultures I encounter, and keep finding the bright eyes in the room.
