1.Decision-making under Stress
A new review based on a research shows that acute stress affects the way the brain considers the advantages and disadvantages,causing it to focus on pleasure and ignore the possible negative (负面的) consequences of a decision.
The research suggests that stress may change the way people make choices in predictable ways.
"Stress affects how people learn,"says Professor Mara Mather."People learn better about positive than negative outcomes under stress."
For example,two recent studies looked at how people learned to connect images(影像) with either rewards or punishments.In one experiment,some of the participants were first stressed by having to give a speech and do difficult math problems in front of an audience; in the other,some were stressed by having to keep their hands in ice water.In both cases,the stressed participants remembered the rewarded material more accurately and the punished material less accurately than those who hadn't gone through the stress.
This phenomenon is likely not surprising to anyone who has tried to resist eating cookies or smoking a cigarette while under stress-at those moments,only the pleasure associated with such activities comes to mind.But the findings further suggest that stress may bring about a double effect.Not only are rewarding experiences remembered better,but negative consequences are also easily recalled.
The research also found that stress appears to affect decision-making differently in men and women.While both men and women tend to focus on rewards and less on consequences under stress,their responses to risk turn out to be different.
Men who had been stressed by the cold-water task tended to take more risks in the experiment while women responded in the opposite way.In stressful situations in which risk-taking can pay off big,men may tend to do better,when caution weighs more,however,women will win.
This tendency to slow down and become more cautious when decisions are risky might also help explain why women are less likely to become addicted than men:they may more often avoid making the risky choices that eventually harden into addiction.

68.We can learn from the passage that people under pressure tend toB.
A.recall consequences more effortlessly
B.keep rewards better in their memory
C.make risky decisions more frequently
D.learn a subject more effectively
69.According to the research,stress affects people most probably in theirA.
A.ways of making choices
B.preference for pleasure
C.tolerance of punishments
D.responses to suggestions
70.The research has proved that in a stressful situation,C.
A.women find it easier to fall into certain habits
B.men have a greater tendency to slow down
C.men are more likely to take risks
D.women focus more on outcomes.

18.Do you know how it is when you see someone yawn and you start yawning too?Or how hard it is to be among people laughing and not laugh yourself?Well,apparently it's because we have mirror neurons (神经元)in our brains.
       Put simply,the existence of mirror neurons suggests that every time we see someone else do something,our brains imitate (模仿)it,whether or not we actually perform the same action.This explains a great deal about how we learn to smile,talk,walk,dance or play sports.But the idea goes further:mirror neurons not only appear to explain physical actions,they also tell us that there is a biological basis for the way we understand other people.
       Mirror neurons can undoubtedly be found all over our brains,but especially in the areas which relate to our ability to use languages,and to understand how other people feel.Researchers have found that mirror neurons relate strongly to language.A group of researchers discovered that if they gave people sentences to listen to (for example:"The hand took hold of the ball"),the same mirror neurons were triggeredas when the action was actually performed (in this example,actually taking hold of a ball).
       Any problems with mirror neurons may well result in problems with behavior.Much research suggests that people with social and behavioral problems have mirror neurons which are not fully functioning.However,it is not yet known exactly how these discoveries might help find treatments for social disorders.
       Research into mirror neurons seems to provide us with even more information concerning how humans behave and interact (互动).Indeed,it may turn out to be the equivalent (相等物)for neuroscience of what Einstein's theory of relativity was for physics.And the next time you feel the urge to cough in the cinema when someone else does-well,perhaps you'll understand why.
72.Mirror neurons can explainC.
A.why we cry when we are hurt                  
B.why we cough when we suffer from a cold
C.why we smile when we see someone else smile 
D.why we yawn when we see someone else stay up late
73.The underlined word"triggered"in the third paragraph probably means"A".
A.set off         B.cut off          C.built up             D.broken up
74.We can learn from the passage that mirror neuronsA.
A.relate to human behavior and interaction      
B.control human physical actions and feelings
C.result in bad behavior and social disorders           
D.determine our knowledge and language abilities
75.What is the passage mainly about?D
A.Ways to find mirror neurons.
B.Problems of mirror neurons.
C.Existence of mirror neurons.
D.Functions of mirror neurons.

15.It does not have to be January 1st to give yourself a chance to make the most out of your day.Every day is a new day and a fresh start to learn,grow,develop your strengths,free yourself from past regrets or hurts,and move forward older and wiser.Every day gives you a chance to reinvent (重新审视) yourself.It is never too late to change things that are not working in your life.
   Each day is a new beginning and a piece of blank paper.How would you like to create your day?What would you like to paint on it?If you wake up in a negative mind,you are more likely to paint a dark picture throughout the day,and your picture will not show hope,happiness and joy.
   If you take each day to think actively,and have a positive intention(意图) for how you would like to create your day,how would your life be different?What can daily positive intentions do for you?Every day you will give yourself the gift of an"attitude of gratitude(感恩)".
   Each day is a chance to look at things in a different way.You can experience each day in the beauty of the world-and the beauty of you who are in it!You find yourself changing from"I can't"to"I can".With a focus on positive intentions,you feel you are full of power and more like a"winner"than a"loser".
  You pay more attention to the present,and will be more likely to live fully in the present each moment of each day.After all,the past is a great place to visit,but you don't want to live there!So how about starting each day taking a moment to think of a positive intention for the day?
