Sports

16、 help people to live happily as well as keep fit. Today I d like to say something about one of the most popular sports-jogging. The National Adult Physical Fitness Survey showed that 6.5 million adult Americans jog for exercise. The popularity of jogging has been heightened by medical claims of the

17、benefits derived from regular participation in this activity. Regular jogging is credited with promoting a “training effect“ that conditions the heart to do more work with less effort; increases the efficiency of the respiratory system by strengthening the muscles that as sist breathing; increases b

18、lood volume in the body, thereby increasing the oxygen - carrying capacity of the circulatory system; promotes blood vessel flexibility; aids the digestive system; and helps to maintain proper body weight through the high calorie expenditure.

19、rs will increase if this activity is properly taught and encouraged through school physical education programs.

20、port Award be utilized to pro vide added incentive for school jogging programs, In addition to learning the physiological effects of training noted above, students should be given the following information as guidelines for their personal jogging pro grams.

21、avoiding the tendency to lean. Keep your back as straight as you can and still remain comfortable, and keep head up. Dont look at your feet.

22、houlders will help reduce the tightness that some times develops while jogging. Periodically taking several deep breaths and blowing them out completely will also help you to relax. It is best to land on the heel of the foot and rock forward so that you drive off the ball of the foot for your next s

23、tep If this proves difficult, try a more flat - footed style. Jogging only on the balls of the feet, as in sprinting, will produce severe leg soreness. Keep steps short, letting foot strike the ground beneath the knee instead of reaching to the front. Length of stride should vary with your rate of s

24、peed. Breathe deeply with mouth open. Do not hold breath.

Sigmund Freud, an Austrian neurologist, was the founder of psychoanalysis and, some would say, of modern psychology

28、itself. The main hypothesis of Freuds theory is that human behavior is determined primarily by unconscious motives. These unconscious motives can be discovered through the use of free association, that is, through talking out problems with the patient. Freuds theory of personality involved three bro

29、ad areas of investigation into human behavior: structural, dynamic, and developmental. Structurally, Freud divided the human personality into id, ego, and superego. The id is the completely unconscious part of self. It is the repository(资源 ) of ones instinctual needs and drives. Freud posed that it

30、consisted of everything psychological that was inherited. The ego is the rational aspect of the personality. It governs the impulsive needs created by the id and decides which needs can and will be Satisfied according to the conditions of the environment. The superego is the conscience, the ethical(

31、伦理的 ) or moral aspect of personality. It is formed by the traditional values and ideals of the society or culture in which a person is born. The superego strives for the ideal. The “con science“ part provides guilt feelings when moral values are violated. The “ego-ideal“ part provides feelings of pr

32、ide when the self acts in consonance with traditional values of the group. Freuds dynamic concepts involved instinct, libido, and anxiety. Generally, we term behavior as instinctive if it occurs without any apparent opportunity of its having been learned. Freuds “instinct“ differed in that it refers

33、 to an inborn bodily condition represented by “wish“ and “need“. Libido is descriptive of ones emotional or psychic energy. This energy enables life “instincts“ to perform their work and is derived from primitive biological urges-for example, the sex drive. Thus, the libido is usually goal directed.

34、 Anxiety, in psychological terms, is an uncontrollable state of fear often unrelated to a specific object or event. Freuds developmental concepts included identification, displacement, defense mechanisms, and psycho sexual stages. Identification labels the behavior of an individual who imitates anot

35、her person or group ( movie star, gangster, etc. ). Displacement occurs when the instinct is blocked and the frustrated energy is then diverted to substitute objects. Defense mechanisms (repression, projection, and reaction) describe behavior reacting to relieve extreme pressure and to defend the eg

36、o. Psychosexual stages refer to the five set stages of an individual, from birth through adolescence: oral (breast-sucking babyhood), anal (toilet-training period), phallic ( 36 years development of sexual feelings) , latancy ( intermediate stage between phallic and beginning of puberty(青春期 ) ,and g

37、enital( formation of genuine relationships and the end of narcissism(自我陶醉 ). Freuds two disciples broke with the master largely over the centrality of sex in Freuds theorizing. Alfred Adler maintained that man was more a social being than a sexual one, and that individuals are primarily motivated by

38、 social interests. Carl Jung also differed from Freud on what determines the motivation for hu man behavior. He stressed goal direction beyond childhood, as well as the influence of the ancestral past in such things as magic, power, and hero worship. 26 Freuds concepts included a _. （ A） denial of i

39、nstinctive behavior in animals and humans （ B） belief that religion properly modled the conscience so that the id could be controlled （ C） belief that human behavior can be explained primarily by the unconscious motives of individuals （ D） belief that human behavior is completely controlled by the “

40、conscience“ part 27 Jung and Adler differed most with Freud over _. （ A） what primarily motivates human behavior （ B） whether dreams can interpret human behavior （ C） how hypnosis is used in psychoanalysis （ D） what medicine can cure neurosis 28 According to Freuds concepts, which aspect would MOST

41、be looked upon as the “chief executive“ or administrator-in-charge of the total personality, the rational and aware self? （ A） Id. （ B） Ego. （ C） Superego: （ D） None of the above. 29 According to Freuds developmental concepts at which stage of development is the individual LEAST likely to think of h

42、imself exclusively and outgrow what Freud calls “narcissistic behavior“ ? （ A） Oral （ B） Anal （ C） Phallic （ D） Genital 30 If a worker fearful of talking back to an employer comes home and yells at a family member, we have an example of Freudian _. （ A） identification （ B） displacement （ C） projecti

43、on （ D） repression 30 The traditional pattern of classroom experience at the college level brings the professor and a group of 20 to 30 students together for a 45-to-50-minute class session two or three times a week. The most common mode of instruction is the lecture. When lectures are the principal

44、 method of instruction in larger classes, regular periods may be set aside for small group discussions under the leadership of an assistant instructor. In cases where a small class size encourages in formality, lectures may be combined with discussion sessions based on assigned readings, required te

45、xtbooks, and other outside materials. Accurate, legible notes are invaluable aids to the student who is enrolled in a lecture course. Notes should be taken during lectures, and when the student is reading the texts prior to each session of the course. The key to good note-taking is to be able to lis

46、ten a lot and to write only as much as is needed to re cord the essence of a point or idea presented by the lecturer. Thus, students should endeavor to identify only the main points and ideas being presented and to write them down in outline form. They should also strive to take good notes the first

47、 time and not play to recopy notes-or to do so only when clarity and conciseness demand it. Finally, they should review their notes for about five minutes on the same day that they take them, and go over them again for about half an hour at least once a week, according to a regular schedule or play.
