When I was small and my grandmother died, I couldn’t understand why I had no tears. But that night when my dad tried to cheer me up, my laugh turned into crying.

.   So it came as no surprise to learn that researchers believe crying and laughing come from the same part of the brain. Just as laughing has many health advantages, scientists are discovering that so, too, does crying.

Whatever it takes for us to reduce pressure is important to our emotional (情感的) health, and crying seems to study found that 85 percent of women and 73 percent of men report feeling better after crying.

Besides, tears attract help from other people. Researchers agree that when we cry, people around us become kinder and friendly and they are more ready to provide support and comfort. Tears also enable us to understand our emotions better; sometimes we don't even know we' re very sad until we cry. We learn about our emotions through Crying, and then we can deal with them.

Just as crying can be healthy, not crying — holding back tears of anger, pain or suffering — can be bad for physical (身体的) health, Studies have shown that too much control of emotions can lead to high blood pressure, heart problems and some other illnesses.

 (05·安徽E篇)

Parents should stop blaming themselves because there’s not a lot they can do about it. I mean the teenager (十几岁的孩子) problem. Whatever you do or however you choose to deal with it, at certain times a wonderful, reasonable and helpful child will turn into a terrible animal.

I’ve seen friends deal with it in all kinds of different ways. One strict mother insisted that her son, right from a child, should stand up whenever anyone entered the room, open doors and shake hands like a gentleman. I saw him last week when I called round. Sprawling himself (懒散地躺) on the sofa in full length, he made no attempt to turn off the loud TV he was watching as I walked in, and his greeting was no more than a quick glance at me. His mother was ashamed. “I don't know what to do with him these days,” she said. “He’s forgotten all the manners we taught him.”

He hasn't forgotten them. He' s just decided that he' s not going to use them. She confessed (坦白) that she would like to come up behind him and throw him down from the sofa onto the floor.

Another good friend of mine let her two daughters climb all over the furniture, reach across the table, stare at me and say, “I don’t like your dress; it’s ugly.” One of the daughters has recently been driven out of school. The other has left home.

“Where did we go wrong?” her parents are now very sad. Probably nowhere much. At least, no more than the rest of that unfortunate race, parents.

71. This text is most probably written by ______.

A. a specialist in teenager studies              B. a headmaster of a middle school

C. a parent with teenage children               D. a doctor for mental health problems

72. The underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refers to ______.

A. the change from good to bad that ' s seen in a child

B. die way that parents often blame themselves

C. the opinion that a child has of his parents

D. the advice that parents want their children to follow

73. The boy on the sofa would most probably be described as ______.

A. lazy           B. quiet              G. unusual           D. rude

74. From the second example we can infer that the parents of the two daughters ______.

A. pay no attention to them                    B. are too busy to look after them

C. have come to hate them                     D. feel helpless to do much about them

75. What is the author' a opinion about the sudden change in teenage children?

A. Parents have no choice but to try to accept it.

B. Parents should pay still sore attention to the change.

C. Parents should work more closely with school teachers.

D. Parents are at fault for the change in their children.
