D
It seems that great artists and scientists often suffer from mental problems. Both Einstein and Dickens had mental illness. Now scientists have started to look at whether mental illness and genius are linked.
Dr Adele Juda studied 5,000 creative people in Germany. She found there were more people with mental illness in this group than in the general population. Poets had the highest rate of mental illness, followed by musicians, with lower numbers for painters and architects.
Other scientists did research which also showed a strong link between mental problems and creativity. But, it did nothing to explain it.
Dr Ruth Richards of Harvard University made a breakthrough. Instead of studying creative people, she took a group of psychiatric (精神病的) patients and tested them for creativity. The patients got much higher scores than a normal group.
Also, the patients’ close relatives were much more creative than the patients and a normal group. This suggests that the key to the link between creativity and mental illness is in our genes (基因).
But this is a problem. According to Darwinism, harmful genes should be removed. Some scientists believe that evolution (进化) has created a balance, where the madness of a few people leads to the development of the whole human race.
Geniuses(天才人物) may be mad, bad or just difficult to understand, but their discoveries have improved the world we live in. It seems that a little creative madness is good for us all.
67. According to Dr Adele Juda, which of the following has the lowest rate of mental illness?
A. Painters B. Musicians C. Poets D. Bus drivers
68. The underlined phrase “make a breakthrough” in the 4th paragraph means “ ___________ ”.
A. discover or find something new and important.
B. make a way through using force.
C. (of the sun or moon ) appear from behind (clouds).
D. suddenly change (from a slower to a faster pace)
69. Based on the research of Dr Ruth Richards of Harvard University, we can conclude that .______
A. great artists and scientists often suffer from mental problems
B. the patients’ close relatives were much more creative than the patients and a normal group
C. psychiatric patients have more creativity than the average people
D. it is our genes that determine the link between creativity and mental illness
70. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. Among the 5,000 creative Germans, more people suffer from mental diseases.
B. There is a strong link between mental problems and creativity.
C. Psychiatric patients make greater contributions than common people.
D. The key to the link between creativity and mental illness is in our genes.
71. What is the writer’s attitude toward madness?
A. Madness is harmful to the whole society.
B. A little creative madness is good for us all.
C. All the talented people are mad.
D. Only the people with mental illness have more creativity.

The city can seem a cold, mean place. In the middle of so many people hurrying about their own business, a person can feel alone among the millions of others.
There is a popular view that in cities, strangers are less likely to help an elderly person cross a street or call the police when they see a bike being stolen. Recently, a New Yorker named Casey Neistat did an experiment. He chained up his bike in several public places, then "stole" it in a number of obvious ways, such as using a hacksaw (钢锯). He filmed everything to see whether other New Yorkers would try to stop a shameless bike theft. The result? People just walked on by.
Is this evidence of an immoral, selfish urban society? Not necessarily. According to another recent study, the way city people mind their own business is about other factors besides morality (道德).
This is called the Bystander Effect, the theory that city people do not react because of the urban enviromnent they live in.
Psychologist Dr. Harold explained why people did not involve themselves in Neistat's bike theft experiment with the Bystander Effect.
First, people who live in cities are surrounded by so much activity that they stop noticing what is going on around them. Second, they are less easy to surprise and assume every activity has a logical explanation.
"The third is that people notice it, but they don't know what to do," he continued. "And the fourth is fear — they know they should do something, but they're afraid to challenge someone with a hacksaw."
A lack of concern is only a small reason why people don't take action, concludes Dr. Harold.
Despite the results of Neistat's experiment, there is also evidence of a sense of team spirit that connects people in cities. All it takes is a funny joke or a shared interest to start a conversation with someone at a bus stop. When city folk are in trouble, they come together for support — famously in New York on September 11, 2001.
City society is different, but that doesn't mean it's cold or mean — it just means it's busy!
【小题1】Casey Neistat fihned everything in the experiment with the purpose of .
| A．proving that he was not the thief |
| B．telling people that bike theft was immoral |
| C．finding out who had a sense of right and wrong |
| D．making his experiment well-known to the public |
| A．can partly explain a selfish urban society |
| B．is what our society should pay special attention to |
| C．is the only factor that leads to a selfish urban society |

| B．a way to prove Dr Harold's Bystander effect |
| C．evidence that city life can be really dangerous |
| D．an example to show team spirit connecting city people |

Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from the list A-F for
each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.
|
1.
It's something that most of us find annoying. We're on our way home after a hard day at school and trying to have a quiet chat with a classmate or get in a little reading, when our peace is disturbed by someone screaming into their cell phone: "I'M ON THE BUS !"
2.
A survey published last week suggests Americans do not like the impolite use of today's electronic communication gadgets. Besides noisy phone users, sending and receiving e-mails while in company are also as very poor manners, reports MSNBC.com.
3.
One of the practices that participants in the survey most objected to was the use of phones, iPods and other devices during religious festivals. Some 90 per cent of those surveyed thought this was insensitive and disrespectful.
4.
The website quotes Dr Genevieve Bell, conductor of the survey and director of Intel's User Experience Group as saying: "Theses are issues about common sense." But she believes that the rights and wrongs of the public use of technology are still in the process of formation.
5.
The survey does suggest, according to MSNBC, that most Amencans accepted that the technologies are a fact of modern life. They had nothing against the use of laptops and cell phones in bathrooms. And an electronic thank-you note was just as acceptable as a handwritten one.
