10、nts. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. 15 For well over 2000 years the worlds great religions have taught the virtues of a trust-ing heart. No

11、w there is another reason to merit the wisdom of the ages: scientific evidence indicates that those with trusting hearts will live longer, healthier lives. As a result of the work published in the 1970s by two pioneering heart specialists, Meyer Friedman and Ray H. Rosenman, nearly every American is

12、 aware that blood Type A people are impatient, and easily moved to hostility (敌意 ) and anger. Many have come to believe that Type As are at a much higher risk of suffering heart attack or dying of heart disease than others. The driving force behind hostility is a cynical mistrust of others. If we ex

13、pect others to mistreat us, we are seldom disappointed. This generates anger and leads us to respond with hostility. The most characteristic attitude of a cynic is being suspicious of the motives (动机 ) of people he doesnt know. Imagine you are waiting for an elevator and it stops two floors above fo

14、r longer than usual. How inconsiderate! You think. In a few seconds, you have drawn hostile conclusion about unseen people and their motives. Meanwhile, your cynical mistrust is leading to noticeable physical consequences. Your voice rises. The rate and depth of your breathing increases. Your heart

15、is beating faster and harder, and the muscles of your arms and legs become tight. You feel “charged up“, ready for action. If you frequently experience these feelings, you may be at increased risk of developing serious health problems. Anger can add to the risk of heart and other diseases. 16 A cyni

16、c, in the passage, is a person_. （ A） whose behavior usually leads to serious health problems （ B） who is always ready to fight （ C） who usually has doubts about the people around him （ D） whose behavior usually seems strange to the people he knows 17 According to the passage, if you have a fixed id

17、ea in mind that people will mis-treat you, you will always find it_. （ A） to be wrong （ B） to be so （ C） to be disappointing （ D） to be pleasing 18 The authors intention in writing the passage is to_. （ A） praise the wisdom of the old people （ B） advise people to be patient （ C） analyze the danger o

18、f heart diseases （ D） persuade people to be trustful 19 According to the author, people with trusting hearts are_. （ A） not likely to be mistreated by others （ B） less likely to get heart diseases （ C） usually intelligent and wise （ D） usually very religious 20 The book by Meyer Friedman and Ray H.

19、Rosenman most probably discusses_. （ A） peoples characters and their blood types （ B） friendliness and hostility （ C） trust and mistrust of people （ D） heart diseases and death rate 20 Professor Smith recently persuaded 35 people, 23 of them women, to keep a diary of all their absent-minded actions

20、for a fortnight. When he came to analyze their embarrassing lapses (差错 ) in a scientific report, he was surprised to find that nearly all of them fell into a few groupings. Nor did the lapses appear to be entirely random (随机的 ). One of the women, for instance, on leaving her house for work one morni

21、ng threw her dog her earrings and tried to fix a dog biscuit on her ear. “The explanation for this is that the brain is like a computer,“ explains the professor. “People programme themselves to do certain activities regularly. It was the womans custom every morning to throw her dog two biscuits and

22、then put on her earrings. But somehow the action got reversed in the programme.“ About one in twenty of the incidents the volunteers reported were these “programme assembly failures“. Altogether the volunteers logged 433 unintentional actions that they found themselves doing an average of twelve eac

23、h. There appear to be peak periods in the day when we are at our zaniest (荒谬可笑的 ). These are two hours some time between eight a. m. and noon, between four and six p.m. with a smaller peak between eight and ten p.m. “Among men the peak seems to be when a changeover in brain programmes occurs, as for

24、 instance between going to and from work.“ Women on average reported slightly more lapses 12.5 compared with 10.9 for men probably because they were more reliable reporters. A startling finding of the research is that the absent-minded activity is a hazard of doing things in which we are skilled. No

25、rmally, you would expect that skill reduces the number of errors we make. But trying to avoid silly slips by concentrating more could make things a lot worse, even dangerous. 21 In his study Professor Smith asked the subjects _. （ A） to keep track of people who tended to forget things （ B） to report

26、 their embarrassing lapses at random （ C） to analyze their awkward experiences scientifically （ D） to keep a record of what they did unintentionally 22 Professor Smith discovered that _. （ A） certain patterns can be identified in the recorded incidents （ B） many people are too embarrassed to admit t

27、heir absent-mindedness （ C） men tend to be more absent-minded than women （ D） absent-mindedness is an excusable human weakness 23 “Programme assembly failures“ (Para. 2) refers to the phenomenon that people _. （ A） often fail to programme their routines beforehand （ B） tend to make mistakes when the

28、y are in a hurry （ C） unconsciously change the sequence of doing things （ D） are likely to mess things up if they are too tired 24 We learn from the third paragraph that _. （ A） absent-mindedness tends to occur during certain hours of the day （ B） women are very careful to perform actions during pea

29、k periods （ C） women experience more peak periods of absent-mindedness （ D） mens absent-mindedness often results in funny situations 25 It can be concluded from the passage that _. （ A） people should avoid doing important things during peak periods of lapses （ B） hazards can be avoided when people d

30、o things they are good at （ C） people should be careful when programming their actions （ D） lapses cannot always be attributed to lack of concentration 26 Social customs and ways of behaving change from time to time. Things which were considered impolite many years ago are now acceptable. Just a few

31、 years ago, it was considered impolite for a man to smoke on the street. No man who thought of himself as being a gentle man would make a fool of himself by smoking in the presence of a lady. Customs also differ greatly from country to country. Does a man walk on the left or the right of a woman in

32、your country? Should you use both hands when you are eating? (76) The Americans and the British not only speak the same language but also share a large number of social customs. For instance, in both countries, people shake hands when they meet each other for the first time. Also, most Englishmen wi

33、ll open a door for a woman or offer their seat to her, and also will most Americans. Promptness (守时 ) is important both in Britain and America. If a dinner invitation is for 7 oclock , the dinner guest either arrives close to that time or calls up to explain his delay. The important thing to remembe

34、r about social customs is not to do anything that might make other people uncomfortable. Especially if they are your guests. There is an old story about a man who gave a formal dinner party. When the food was served, one of the guests started to eat his peas with a knife. The other guests were eithe

35、r amazed or shocked, but the host calmly picked up his knife and began eating in the same way.
