26、ormity, the clove cigarettes. However, the weirdest may be this: artists only jobs are to explore emotions, and yet they choose to focus on the ones that feel lousy. This wasnt always so. The earliest forms of art, like painting and music, are those best suited for expressing joy. But somewhere in t

27、he 19th(上标 ) century, more artists began seeing happiness as insipid, phony or, worst of all, boring. In the 20th(上标 ) century, classical music became more atonal, visual art more unsettling. Sure, there have been exceptions, but it would not be a stretch to say that for the past century or so, seri

28、ous art has been at war with happiness. In 1824, Beethoven completed his “Ode to Joy“. In 1962, novelist Anthoy Burgess used it in A Clockwork Orange as the favorite music of his ultra-violent antihero. You could argue that art became more skeptical of happiness because modern times have seen such m

29、isery. But the reason may actually be just the opposite: there is too much damn happiness in the world today. In the West, before mass communication and literacy, the most powerful mass medium was the church, which reminded worshippers that their souls were in peril and that they would someday be me

30、at for worms. Today the messages that the average Westerner is bombarded with are not religious but commercial, and relentlessly happy. Since these messages have an agenda to prey our wallets from our pockets they make the very idea of happiness seem bogus(假的 ). “Celebrate!“ commanded the ads for th

31、e arthritis drug Celebrex, before we found out it could increase the risk of heart attack. What we forget what our economy depends on us forgetting is that happiness is more than pleasure without pain. The things that bring the greatest joy carry the greatest potential for loss and disappointment. T

32、oday, surrounded by promises of easy happiness, we need someone to tell us that it is OK not to be happy, that sadness makes happiness deeper. As the wine-connoisseur movie Sideways tells us, it is the kiss of decay and mortality that makes grape juice into Pinot Norway need art to tell us, as relig

33、ion once did, that you will die, that everything ends, and that happiness comes not in denying this but in living with it. Its a message even more bitter than a clove cigarette, yet, somehow, is a breath of fresh air. 31 What is most strange about artists? （ A） They wear special clothes. （ B） They r

34、arely work in the daytime. （ C） They mainly depict distressing things. （ D） They are liable to take illegal drugs. 32 What does the author mean by “a stretch“? （ A） A terrible thing. （ B） An exaggeration. （ C） A continuous period of time. （ D） An exception. 33 The example that “Ode to Joy“ was used

35、in Burgesss novel is meant to illustrate that_. （ A） musicians and novelists share similar artistic taste （ B） violent people have a strong desire to be happy （ C） serious art is often contradictory with happiness （ D） music is enjoyed by good and bad people alike 34 The word “Celebrex“ in the adver

36、tisement_. （ A） misleads people into buying dangerous drugs （ B） reminds people of a cheerful feeling （ C） boasts of the effectiveness of a drug （ D） comes from a religious term 35 How could the economy depend on our forgetting things? （ A） The economy would not be boosted if everybody were satisfie

37、d. （ B） There are many new products designed for the forgetful. （ C） People will spend more money if we believe in easy happiness. （ D） We pay heavily for forgetting things easily. 36 What does the author imply with the movie Sideways? （ A） Happiness can be found through pains and efforts. （ B） Happ

38、iness comes when everything dies. （ C） Happiness makes sadness deeper. （ D） Happiness is not a good thing. 36 We sometimes think humans are uniquely vulnerable to anxiety, but stress seems to affect the immune defenses of lower animals too. In one experiment, for example, behavioral immunologist ( 免

39、疫学家 ) Mark Laudenslager, at the University of Denver, gave mild electric shocks to 24 rats. Half the animals could switch off the current by turning a wheel in their enclosure, while the other half could not. The rats in the two groups were paired so that each time one rat turned the wheel it protec

40、ted both itself and its helpless partner from the shock. Laudenslager found that the immune response was depressed below normal in the helpless rats but not in those that could turn off the electricity. What he has demonstrated, he believes, is that lack of control over an event, not the experience

41、itself, is what wakens the immune system. Other researchers agree. Jay Weiss, a psychologist at Duke University School of Medicine, has shown that animals who are allowed to control unpleasant stimuli dont develop sleep disturbances or changes in brain chemistry typical of stressed rats. But if the

42、animals are conditioned to confront with situations they have no control over, they later behave passively even when faced with experiences they can control. Such findings reinforce psychologists suspicions that the experience or perception of helplessness is one of the most harmful factors in depre

43、ssion. One of the most startling examples of how the mind can alter the immune response was discovered by chance. In 1975 psychologist Robert Ader at the University of Rochester School of Medicine conditioned (使形成条件反射 ) mice to avoid saccharin (糖精 ) by simultaneously feeding them the sweetener and i

44、njecting them with a drug that while suppressing their immune systems caused stomach upsets. Associating the saccharin with the stomach pains, the mice quickly learned to avoid the sweetener. In order to extinguish this dislike for the sweetener, Ader reexposed the animals to saccharin, this time wi

45、thout the drug, and was astonished to find that those mice that had received the highest amounts of sweetener during their earlier conditioning died. He could only speculate that he had so successfully conditioned the rats that saccharin alone now served to weaken their immune systems enough to kill

46、 them. 37 The word “vulnerable“(in Para. 1) means_. （ A） fragile （ B） ambiguous （ C） sober （ D） dedicated 38 Laudenslagers experiment showed that the immune system of those rats who could turn off the electricity_. （ A） was altered （ B） was strengthened （ C） was weakened （ D） was not affected 39 Acc

47、ording to the passage, the experience of helplessness causes rats to_. （ A） turn off the electricity （ B） try to control unpleasant stimuli （ C） become abnormally suspicious （ D） behave passively in controllable situations 40 The reason why the mice in Aders experiment avoided saccharin was that_. （

48、 A） they associated it with stomachach （ B） it affected their immune systems （ C） it led to stomach pains （ D） they disliked its taste 41 The passage tells us that the most probable reason for the death of the mice in Aders experiment was that_. （ A） the sweetener was poisonous to them （ B） their im

49、mune systems had been altered by the mind （ C） they had been weakened physically by the saccharin （ D） they had taken too much sweetener during earlier conditioning 42 It can be concluded from the passage that the immune systems of animals_. （ A） can be altered by electric shocks （ B） can be weakened by conditioning （ C） can be suppressed by drug injections （ D） can be affected by frequent does of saccharin 42 Most people would be
