27、e and possession.（分数：25.00）_正确答案：(当一些外国人被问到在美国社会什么事情在他们看来最不寻常时，经常性的回答是普通的美国人都可以持有枪支。虽然美国许多人都是依法持有枪支，但是也有很多人不法持有枪支。没有枪支的人觉得获得枪支很容易。最近一项调查显示，许多高中学生，尤其是住在城市里的高中学生，很容易便可以得到枪支。尽管一些美国人并不愿意持有枪支，但是其他一些美国人则认为持枪狩猎是一种运动。在秋冬季节，这种活动已经成为美国文化的一部分。一些饲养牛羊的乡下农民认为，他们应该保护自己的牛群和羊群免受夜晚出洞的狼的袭击。1871 年，为了保护和支持他们持有枪支的权益，美国步枪

28、协会成立了。这个组织主要的职责就是阻止枪支限制法的通过。美国步枪协会得到小城镇和乡下地区政治上的强力支持，尤其是西部和南部地区。认为持枪合法的人坚信，宪法给人“拥有和携带武器”的权利。他们觉得枪支限制法律不会解决美国犯罪和暴力事件。然而，最近发生的许多事情都表明美国枪支泛滥，民众呼吁对枪支进行限制。因为在看似平静的校园里也频繁地发生枪击事件，无辜市民和外国游人不时地被持枪者杀掉的事实迫使立法者们采取行动制定法律。也许在不远的将来，美国会把持枪文化转变成限制枪支使用的文化。)解析：长难句分析1When foreigners are sometimes asked what seems most

39、e he proposed it in 1919.The most widely accepted view is that emotions occur as a complex sequence of events. The sequence begins when a person encounters an important event or thought. The persons interpretation of the encounter determines the feeling that is likely to follow. For example, someone

42、o form all other emotions, just as certain basic colors produce all others.（分数：25.00）_正确答案：(情感是人们对于某种重大事件或想法产生的感觉或反应。人们都喜欢享受像爱、幸福和满意等情感，也尽量避免去感受像孤独、焦虑和悲痛等情感。人们通过语言、各种声音、面部表情和手势等来交流自己的情感。比如说，气愤有可能使人皱眉、握拳或者尖叫。虽然遗传可能决定人们在情感上的一些行为表现，但是更多的时候是从社会其他成员那里学会了表达情感的方式。研究表明，那些被隔离的不同人群在表达情感的时候有着相似的面部表情。以自然选择理论闻名的

43、克莱尔达尔文也研究情感。1872 年，达尔文提出，情感的行为最初是为了生存需要和交流。根据詹姆斯兰格于 19 世纪 80 年代提出的情感理论，一个人体内对心跳加速和血压升高这些牛理变化作出反应，并且只有在意识到这些变化的时候，才会有不同情感的产生。但是这个理论在另一个研究中在一只神经受损的猫身上所进行的研究没有得到支持。猫感觉不到内在的变化，但是它的行为很正常。一个名叫约翰沃森的美国心理学家发现了叫做行动主义的心理学派。他观察到被某事所刺激的婴儿会表现出三种基本情感害怕、生气和喜欢。1919 年，沃森提出了这个观点，此后，它经常遭到挑战。最被广泛接受的观点就是情感伴随着一系列复杂事件一起发生。

44、当一个人遇到重大的事情或想法的时候，这一些复杂的反应就开始了。那么一个人对这些事情或想法的解释决定了他在随后会有什么样的情感。例如，在树林里遇到熊的人可能会把这个事件理解为危险，危险的感觉会让这个人感觉恐惧。每种感觉都会伴随着生理变化和采取行动的欲望，这就是对引发先后顺序的事件的反应。因此，遇到熊的人可能会逃走。一些神经学家进一步独立地发展了这种理论，认为人至少有 8 种情感。分别是：生气、害怕、高兴、伤心、赞同、厌恶、惊讶以及兴趣或好奇。它们能够在不同程度的情感中存在。然后这些情感相互结合就会产生其他情感，好比在绘画中，由几种特定的原料相互搭配可以产生其他色调一样。)解析：长难句分析1Ind

45、ividuals communicate most of their emotions by means 0f words，a variety of sounds，facial expressions，and gestures句子分析 本句是一个简单句，宾语是“most of their-emotions”，介词短语“by means of”作状语，by means of 意为“用方法，依靠”。译文 人们通过语言、各种声音、面部表情和手势等来交流自己的情感。2People learn ways of showing some of their emotions from members of

46、their societythough heredity(遗传)may determine some emotional behavior句子分析 本句的主句是“People learn ways of.their society”，连词 though 引导的是让步状语从句，learn.from 意为“向学习”，如：Its necessary for us to learn from each other我们之间互相学习是必要的。译文 虽然遗传可能决定人们在情感上的一些行为表现，但是更多的时候是从社会其他成员那里学会了表达情感的方式。3Darwin said in 1872 that emot

47、ional behavior originally served both as an aid to survival and as a method of communicating intentions句子分析 本句中的 that 引导的是宾语从句，从句中的 serve as 意为“担任，充当，起作用”，如：Animals may serve as a vehicle for viral transmission动物可能成为病毒传播的媒介。bothand意为“和都”，如：She was ashamed，both for herself and for Diana她感到羞愧，既为自己也为戴安娜。译文 1872 年，达尔文提出，情感的行为最初是为了生存需要和交流。4According to the James-Lange theory of emotions developed in the 1880s，people feel emotions only if aware of their own internal physical reactions to events，such as increased heart rate or blood pressure句子分析 本句的主句是“people feel emo
