Choose the best one and mark the corresponding letter with a single bar across the square brackets on your machine-scoring ANSWER SHEET. 31 At all ages and at all stages of life, fear presents a problem to almost everyone. “We are largely the playthings of our

27、 fears,“ wrote the British author Horace Walpole many years ago. “To one, fear of the dark; to another, of physical pain; to a third, of public ridicule; to a fourth, of poverty; to a fifth, of loneliness-for all of us our particular creature waits in a hidden place.“ Fear is often a useful emotion.

28、 When you become frightened, many physical changes occur within your body. Your heartbeat and responses quicken; your pupils expand to admit more light; large quantities of energy-producing adrenaline (肾上激素 ) are poured into your bloodstream. Confronted with a fire or accident, fear can fuel life-sa

29、ving flight (逃离 ). Similarly, when a danger is psychological rather than physical, fear can force you to take self-protective measures. It is only when fear is disproportional to the danger at hand that it becomes a problem. Some people are simply more vulnerable to fear than others. A visit to the

30、newborn nursery of any large hospital will demonstrate that, from the moment of their births, a few fortunate infants respond calmly to sudden fear-producing situations such as a loudly slammed door. Yet a neighbor in the next bed may cry out with profound fright. From birth, he or she is more prone

31、 to learn fearful responses because he or she has inherited a tendency to be more sensitive. Further, psychologists know that our early experiences and relationships strongly shape and determine our later fears. A young man named Bill, for example, grew up with a father who regarded each adversity a

32、s a temporary obstacle to be overcome with imagination and courage. Using his father as a model, Bill came to welcome adventure and to trust his own ability to solve problem. Phils dad, however, spent most of his time trying to protect himself and his family. Afraid to risk the insecurity of a job c

33、hange, he remained unhappy in one position. He avoided long vacations because “the car might break down.“ Growing up in such a home, Phil naturally learned to become fearful and tense. 31 In the last sentence of Paragraph 1, “our particular creature“ refers to _. （ A） fear of something （ B） a fierce

34、 beast （ C） physical pain （ D） public ridicule 32 Fear can be a useful emotion to us because it can _. （ A） stimulate many physical changes within our body （ B） quicken our heartbeat and responses （ C） pour large quantities of adrenaline into our bloodstream （ D） help us respond quickly to danger an

35、d protect ourselves 33 Fear becomes a problem only when _. （ A） the danger is thought greater than it really is （ B） the danger is more psychological than physical （ C） one cannot stand the danger （ D） one is not well prepared for it 34 Different responses of newborn infants to a loudly slammed door

36、 imply that _. （ A） some people are inherently more easily affected by danger （ B） peoples response to stimuli is not an inherited feature （ C） some people seem to be very sensitive to noise （ D） people sometimes seem to turn a deaf ear to noise 35 Psychologists have found that our later fears are d

38、eir bellies that forms pocket, called a brood pouch. During the breeding season, the sea horses pouch swells to receive eggs. A female sea horse lays up to 200 eggs at a time in the pouch. Then she swims off, leaving her male partner to care for the developing eggs and give birth to young sea horses

39、. The female will return everyday to check on her mate and the eggs, but she doesnt stay long, nor does she take part in the birth. It takes from two to six weeks for the eggs in the males pouch to develop. During this time the male avoids open water and hides in sea grass. His big pouch makes it di

40、fficult for him to swim, so the male often uses his tail to grasp a piece of sea grass. Firmly gripping the grass, he will stay perfectly still for hours or even days. The male sea horse will change his color to blend with his surroundings and avoid being seen by predators who will try to eat him or

41、 poke holes in his pouch to get the eggs. The eggs hatch inside the males pouch. When the babies begin moving around, the male sea horse knows its time for them to be born. He grabs a sea grass stem with his tail and begins rocking, bending, and stretching his body so that the rest of the babies can

42、 be born. Sometimes he has to press his pouch against a rock Or some stiff seaweed to force the young out. Sea horse babies are born in groups of five or more. Sometimes it takes two days for the father sea horse to give birth to all his young. He is very tired when its over. Soon after giving birth

43、 to one brood, the male will approach his mate and show her his empty pouch.

47、1 When 23-year-old Eric Atienza graduated from college last Year, he didnt have a job. Not wanting to give up his apartment and move back with his parents, he did what many young Americans are doing: he signed up with a temp agency, which places workers on short-term jobs. Temporary workers such as

48、Atienza comprise 20 per cent of the U.S. workforce. In 1985, 417,000 workers were classified as temporary help. In 2005, there are more than 2.5 million, according to Labour Department data. Using temporary workers allows companies to increase or decrease the number of staff as their workloads chang

49、e. It also allows companies to avoid the costs involved in hiring and firing long-term employees. Many temp agency owners and career specialists say temping is a good way for recent graduates to get experience. “Short-term jobs let graduates try out different companies to find the best fit,“ said Pegi Wheatley, owner of McCall Staffing, a San Francisco temp agency.
