In ancient Egypt, the pharaoh(法老）treated the poor message runner like a prince when he arrived at the palace, if he brought good news. However, if the exhausted runner had the misfortune to bring the pharaoh unhappy news, his head was cut off.

Shades of that spirit spread over today's conversations. Once a friend arid I packed up some peanut butter and sandwiches for an outing. As we walked light heartedly out the door ，picnic basket in hand, a smiling neighbor looked up at the sky and said, “Oh boy, bad

day for a picnic. The weatherman says it’s going to rain. ,，I wanted to strike him on the face with the peanut butter and sandwiches. Not for his stupid weather report, for his smile.

Several months ago I was racing to catch a bus. As I breathlessly put my handful of cash across the Grey hound counter, the sales agent said with a broad smile，“Oh that bus left five minutes ago. ” Dreams of head-cutting!

It’s not the news that makes someone angry. It’s the unsympathetic attitude with which it’s delivered. Everyone must give bad news from time to time, and winning profes?sionals do it with the proper attitude. A doctor advising a patient that she needs an operation does it in a caring way. A boss informing an employee he didn’t get the job takes on a sym?pathetic tone. Big winners know, when delivering any bad news, they should share the feel?ing of the receiver.

Unfortunately, many people are not aware of this. When you⁷ re tired from a long flight, has a hotel clerk cheerfully said that your room isn^’t ready yet? When you had your heart set on the toast beef, has your waiter told you that he just served the last piece? It makes you as traveler or diner want to land your fist right on their unsympathetic faces.

Had my neighbor told me of the upcoming rainstorm with sympathy, 1 would have ap?preciated his warming . Had the Greyhound salesclerk sympathetically informed me that my bus had already left, I probably would have said, “Oh, that’s all right I'll catch the next one. ” Big winners, when they bear bad news，deliver bombs with the emotion the hombarded(被轰炸的）person is sure to have.

Next time a customer comes to your office, offer him a cup of coffee. And when you’re doing your holiday shopping online ，make sure you’re holding a large glass of iced tea. The physical sensation(感觉）of warmth encourages emotional warmth, while a cold drink in hand prevents you from making unwise decisions those are the practical lesson being drawn from recent research by psychologist John A. Bargh.

Psychologists have known that one person's perception(感知）of another's “warmth” is a powerful determiner in social relationships. Judging someone to be either "warm" or “cold” is a primary consideration, even trumping evidence that a “cold，，person may be more capa­ble. Much of this is rooted in very early childhood experiences, Bargh argues, when babies⁷ conceptual sense of the world around them is shaped by physical sensations, particularly warmth and coldness. Classic studies by Harry Harlow, published in 1958，showed monkeys preferred to stay close to a cloth “mother” rather than one made of wire, even when the wire “mother” carried a food bottle. Harlow^} s work and later studies have led psychologists to stress the need for warm physical contact from caregivers to help young children grow into healthy adults with normal social skills.

Feelings of ‘‘warmth” and “coldness” in social judgments appear to be universal. Al­though no worldwide study has been done, Bargh says that describing people as “warm”or “cold” is common to many cultures, and studies have found those perceptions influence judg­ment in dozens of countries.

To test the relationship between physical and psychological warmth, Bargh conducted an experiment which involved 41 college students. A research assistant who was unaware of the study^ s hypotheses (假设），handed the students either a hot cup of coffee, or a cold drink，to hold while the researcher filled out a short information form： The drink was then handed back. After that, the students were asked to rate the personality of “Person A” based on a particular description. Those who had briefly held the warm drink regarded Per­son A as warmer than those who had held the iced drink.

‘‘We are grounded in our physical experiences even when we think abstractly,” says Bargh.

63.  According to Paragraph 1，a person’s emotion may be affected by _____

A evaluate someone’s personality                       B. write down their hypotheses

66. We can infer from the passage that _____.

A. abstract thinking does not come from physical experiences

B.   feelings of warmth and coldness are studied worldwide ,

LONDON (Reuters)------- Ecotourism is causing a lot of damage to wildlife and may be

endangering the survival of the very animals people are flocking to see, according to re­searchers.

Biologists and conservationists are worried because polar bears ，dolphins, penguins and other creatures are getting stressed and losing weight and some are dying.

"Evidence is growing that many animals do not react well to tourists in their backyard，” New Scientist magazine said.

The immediate effects "researchers have noticed are changes in behavior, heart rates. or stress hormone levels but they fear it could get much worse and over the long term “ could endanger the survival of the very wildlife they want to see. ”

Although money produced through ecotourism, which has been growing at about 10—30 percent a year, has major benefits for poor countries and people living in rural areas, the Swiss—based World Conservation Union (IUCN) and some governments fear not all projects

are audited and based on environmentally friendly policies，according to the magazine.

^4<Transmission of disease to wildlife，or small changes to wildlife health through dis­turbance of daily life or increased stress levels, while not obvious to the casual observer, may translate to lower survival and breeding，” said Philip Seddon , of the University of Otago in Dunedin, New Zealand.

Scientists have noticed that bottleneck dolphins along the northeastern coast of New Zealand become nervously excited when tourist boats arrive. Similar changes in behavior have been observed in polar bears and yellow-eyed penguins in areas visited by colorists are producing smaller babies.

Conservationists are now calling for more research into the effect of ecotourism on ani­mals and say the industry must be developed carefully. They also want studies done before new ecotourism projects are started.

The animals ，welfare should be very important because without them there will be no ecotourism，” said Rochelle Constantine of the University of Auckland in New Zealand

A. Many animals are dying because of lack of money.

B. There will be no ecotourism without animals.

Although Philcoxia minensis plants may look like a bunch of ordinary sticks and flow­ers, underground they are lean，green, meat-eating machines! Experts recently discovered that the plants trap and eat tiny worms. Less than one percent of all flowering plant species are meat-eating.

Philcoxia minensis plants grow in Brazil. They get some of their nutrients the way most plants do. Their roots absorb them from the soil. However, the small plants tend to grow in sandy areas where few nutrients are available. That fact made researchers wonder how the plants could survive, especially because their root systems are not developed well. Scientists became even more curious when they noticed that the plants have leaves underground

"It doesn’t make sense to have leaves underground, so we supposed that the plants are getting some other kind of benefit from the leaves," researcher Rafael Oliveira told report­ers.

Experts found roundworms (姻虫）stuck to the plants⁷ leaves. So they did an experi­ment. They grew special roundworms. Then they buried them in soil with Philcoxia minen- sis plants. When the experts later tested the plants ，leaves, they found evidence of the worms inside. Scientists say the plants trap the roundworms using a sticky substance. Then they release a special liquid to digest the tiny creatures.

The find has made experts hungry to know whether other meat —eating plants are hiding in plain sight. ‘‘This leads to the question of whether there are other carnivorous(食肉的） plants out there，” researcher Peter Fritsch told reporters.

55. Experts succeed in discovering that the plants _____

A. can grow in sandy areas B, can trap and eat tiny worms

C. look like ordinary flowers D. can be transplanted in some other countries

56. According to the whole text, what is unique about the plants?

A. They can survive in drought deserts.

B. They have some special nutrients to absorb.

C. Their root systems are highly developed with leaves underground.

D. They can trap and digest some tiny creatures.

57. The experts did the experiment to _____.

A. find the worms stuck to the plants' leaves

B. test the plants⁷ unusual leaves

C Solve the mystery about the meat—eating plants D. attempt more methods to grow plants in sandy areas

58. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?

A. Some underground Adventures                   B Watch out ，Worms!

C. Keep off the plants!                                   D. An Attempted Murder
