While some scientists overlook the existence of a sixth sense for danger, a new research from Washington University in St. Louis has discovered a brain area that clearly acts as an early warning system and helps us adjust our behavior to avoid dangerous situations.

"Our brains are better at picking up not obvious warning signs than we previously thought," said Joshua Brown, a PhD in psychology in the issue of the journal Science.

The findings offer exact scientific evidence for a new way to form a concept of the complex control processes taking place in and around the ACC, a brain area located near the top of the frontal lobes(耳垂) and along the walls that divide the left and right hemispheres(大脑半球).

"In the past, we found activity in the ACC when people had to make a difficult decision, or after they make a mistake," Brown said. "But now we find that this brain area can actually learn to recognize when you might make a mistake, even before a difficult decision has to be made. So the ACC appears to act as an early warning system—— it learns to warn us in advance when our behavior might lead to a negative outcome, so that we can be more careful and avoid making a mistake."

By providing a clearer picture by which we self monitor and control our behavior, the study is an important step in efforts to develop more effective treatments for mental illnesses. It also provides a new way of understanding inappropriate behaviors that often accompany mental illnesses.

"Our results suggest how injury of the ACC can lead to breakdowns in the early warning system, so that the brain fails to stop or control inappropriate behavior ahead of time," said Brown. "On the other hand, in those persons with mental disorder, the ACC might warn us of an upcoming problem even when no problem is in the existence."

Known to be an important part of the brain's control system, the ACC is believed to help adjust between cold, hard, fact-based reasoning and emotional responses, such as love, fear or expectation.

1.According to the passage, the ACC____________.

A. refers to the sixth sense for danger

B. deals with obvious warning situations

C. connects the left and right hemispheres

D. sends warning messages in advance

2.The new research is beneficial because it ________ .

A. provides a new way of avoiding mistakes

B. adjusts emotional responses in time of danger

C. helps find better treatments for mental illnesses

D. assists people in predicting and avoiding danger

3.The new research helps us understand _________.

A. why we are likely to make mistakes when the ACC is badly injured

B. why people with illnesses usually have so many strange behaviors

C. how the ACC works when something dangerous happens

D. how our brain warns us of failure in advance

Perfectionists believe that not only is perfection achievable, but that it should be achieved whenever possible. They always try to make their work better, and often get pleasure from investing time and effort in their projects. They enjoy paying attention to detail and are often hard to please. After all, perfectionists almost always have nearly?impossible standards for themselves, much higher than what outside parties would generally hope for.

Most perfectionists are also highly?organized. They've perfected their work process along with everything else in their life. They have processes and patterns for handling almost anything that comes their way, from email to new projects and clients to bookkeeping. It can definitely add up to a more effective workday with less wasted time and effort.

Perfectionists can be thought of as overbearing(霸道的) by those who don't share their attitude. It can also be upsetting to clients who aren't interested in “perfect” and simply want their project done yesterday. When you strive for perfection, everything takes just a bit longer to get right. Even if you have a more efficient design and development process than many other designers, it is likely that you spend more time on each step than a lot of others do.

While most people who call themselves “perfectionists” do so in a light?hearted or positive manner, there are those out there to whom perfection becomes an obsession(痴迷). They consider anything less than perfect completely unacceptable. This can lead to obsessive behavior and can have damaging effects on their overall quality of life. Just feeling good about a job done to the best of your ability is entirely normal for a perfectionists and isn't something to worry about. But it becomes particularly dangerous when perfectionists feel they are never quite able to attain perfection, and so drive themselves crazy trying to always reach this unattainable goal.

These perfectionists often place their entire self?worth on their accomplishments and ability to reach perfection, and since they're never able to reach it, it creates a very negative self?image and low self?esteem or depression. The good news is that there are trained psychologists who can help those who are nervously obsessed with perfection to overcome their obsession.

1.Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of perfectionists?

A. They enjoy investing time and efforts.

B. They are not easy to satisfy.

C. They have special ways of handling emails.

D. They set high requirements for others.

2.Clients who are not satisfied with perfectionists think they need ________.

A. better co?workers B. bigger achievements

C. higher efficiency D. less organization skills

3.To perfectionists, their obsession with perfection is an act of ________.

A. showing psychological sickness

B. realizing their own value

C. wasting time and energy

D. improving their self?image

4.Which of the following will the author probably agree?

A. It's very normal to always do one's best in life.

B. Perfectionists should seek help as soon as possible.

C. Perfectionists should not be too proud of themselves.

D. People should not pursue perfection too much.

I turned 16 on Friday, but the Driver’s License Office in my small hometown was only open on Tuesday, so I had to wait through that extremely long weekend and an endless Monday before going in for my examination.

I came to the Driver’s License Office half an hour earlier that Tuesday morning, pacing back and forth on the worn porch waiting for the office to open at eight. I reviewed the driver’s manual for the hundredth time. I was ready. I knew the manual backward and forward; I had made an “A” in my driver’s training course, and I was a genius behind the wheel.

Finally, the door opened and a weary-looking man in a brown uniform let me in.

“Let me guess. You want to take the driver’s test.” his voice was not enthusiastic.

“Yes!” I answered in excitement.

“Ok, fill this out, and if you pass we’ll go for a drive.”

I grabbed the test and rushed to the desk where I filled it out in record time. A quick check showed that my paper was perfect.

“Let’s get in the car.” He tossed me a set of keys, and I slid behind the wheel. Everything was going smoothly as we pulled out of the empty parking lot. I signaled a right hand turn, and we were on a deserted street. This was going to be easy.

“Turn left and go up Young Blood Hill,” he ordered. My hometown is in the mountains, and Young Blood Hill was almost vertical (垂直的). As I eased up the steep hill and came to a stop at the top, I heard the car’s engine die. My heart sank. I would have to start it again without rolling back down the hill. I swallowed hard and turned the key; as I moved my foot from the brake, the car began to roll. I suppose I could have rolled all the way back to the bottom except for one thing. There was something behind me which stopped my roll with a rough shake and crash of glass—a police car.

The policeman wrote me a ticket as I looked over the damage, and the man from the Driver’s License Office slid behind the wheel. I waited until we had parked before I asked how long a person had to wait before taking the test again.

1.What time does “that Tuesday morning” in Paragraph 2 refer to?

A. The morning when he made an “A” in his driver’s training course.

B. The morning when he knew the driver’s manual perfectly well.

C. The Tuesday morning right before his 16th birthday.

D. The first Tuesday morning immediately after his 16th birthday.

2.Why didn’t the car roll back to the bottom?

A. It hit a police car.

B. The engine died.

C. The writer braked it hard.

D. The man from the Driver’s License Office helped make it stop.

3.From the underlined sentence “I grabbed the test and rushed to the desk where I filled it out in record time”, we can know that ______ .

A. the writer didn’t like the man from the Driver’s License Office.

B. the writer was excited and eager to go for the driver’s test.

C. time for the test was tight.

D. the test paper was very easy.

4.What can we learn from the last paragraph?

A. The man from the Driver’s License Office got a ticket.

B. The policeman drove the car away after the accident.

C. The writer failed the driving test.

D. The writer didn’t want to take the driving test again.

Soup on my nose, a nearly spilled glass of wine and chocolate down my white blouse, as blind dates suggest, this was a really messy one. I have never made so much noise with plates and glasses, nor had I dined with a never-before-met companion. This blind date was quite different: we could see nothing. "Put your left hand on my shoulder, and then we'll take small steps forward," said Michael, the visually impaired(视力障碍的) server, in an East London accent. We three felt our way carefully bumping past heavy curtains before being arranged at the dining table, where we would eat and drink three completely secret and unseen courses.

Welcome to Alchemy in the Dark, Hong Kong's first full-time restaurant in total darkness. Upon arrival, diners briefly tell the chef on their allergies(过敏性反应), lock away their mobile phones and enter the windowless restaurant, which can seat 25. When the meal is over, the contents of the delicious menu are shown --- often to the diners' surprise. "This is definitely duck," my friend said, while eating chicken. "This soup," I declared, "is carrot and coriander." Even the too-close smell did not reveal the real tomato and cumin flavors. Dining in the dark changes everything: the sense of smell is heightened, manners go out of the window ----using your hands to feel around the plate becomes normal--- and there is a strange thrill in being able to ignore your facial expressions. Best of all? You don't have to spend hours beforehand(事先) wondering what to wear.

Alchemy in the Dark is at 16 Arbuthnot Road, Central, (tel: 6821 2801) and is open Monday to Saturday, from 7pm to 11pm. Reservations are required. A three-course meal with wine pairing costs HK$700 per person. Five per cent of all profits go to the Hong Kong Society for the Blind.

1.How did the author and her companion arrive at their dining table?

A. By using a map

B. By being led

C. By feeling their way.

D. By finding it by themselves

2.According to passage, which of the following is true?

A. The diners might eat what they are allergic to.

B. The author enjoyed a special lunch at Alchemy in the Dark.

C. The restaurant donated some money to the H. K Society for the Blind.

D. The diners aren’t allowed to take phones to the restaurant at any time.

3.From the passage we can learn that the author ___________.

A. had the table booked

B. shared the meal with a friend.

C. practiced how to eat in total darkness.

D. chose her clothes in advance for the meal.

4.The last paragraph is intended to ____________.

A. present some facts about eating in the dark.

B. inform what to do at Alchemy in the Dark

C. conclude the experience of eating at Alchemy in the Dark.

D. provide some information about Alchemy in the Dark.
