People have wondered for a long time how their personalities and behaviors are formed.It is not easy to explain why one person is intelligent and another is not, or why one is cooperative (合作的)and another is competitive.

Social scientists are, of course, extremely interested in these types of questions.They want to explain why we possess certain characteristics and exhibit certain behaviors.There are no clear answers yet, but two distinct schools of thought (学派)on the matter have developed.As one might expect, the two approaches are very different from one another, and there is a great deal of debate between proponents of each theory.The controversy(argument) is often referred to as “nature and nurture(教育)”.

Those who support the “nature” side of the conflict believe that our personalities and behavior patterns are largely determined by biological and genetic factors.That our environment has little, if anything, to do with our abilities, characteristics, and behavior is central to this theory.Taken to an extreme(走极端), this theory maintains that our behavior is predetermined to such a degree that we are almost completely governed by our instincts(本能).

Proponents of the “nurture” theory, or, as they are often called, behaviorists, claimed that our environment is more important than our biologically based instincts in determining how we will act.A behaviorist, B.F.Skinner, sees humans as beings whose behavior is almost completely shaped by their surroundings.The behaviorists’ view of the human being is quite mechanistic(机械论的); they maintain that, like machines, humans’ respond to environmental stimuli(刺激) as the basis of their behavior.

Socially and politically, the consequences of these two theories are far-reaching.In the US, for example, blacks often score below whites on standardized intelligence tests.This leads some proponents to conclude that blacks are genetically lower in status than whites.Behaviorists, on the contrary, say that the differences in scores are due to the fact that blacks are often robbed of many of the educational and other environmental advantages that whites enjoy, and that, as a result, they do not develop the same responses that whites do.

Either of these theories cannot yet fully explain human behavior.In fact, it is quite likely that the key to our behavior lies somewhere between these two extremes. That the controversy will continue for a long time is certain.

1.This passage is mainly concerned with             

A.relation between personality and behavior

B.relation between behavior and environment

C.different accounts of patterns of human behavior

D.different theories of the formation of human behavior

2.The underlined word " proponents'' in paragraph 2 means          

A.creators

B.advisors

C.supporters

D.judges

3.In paragraph 5 , the author mainly writes about          

A.the considerable(值得考虑的) influence of the two theories

B.differences between the blacks and whites

C.racial discrimination in the United States

D.different responds to intelligence tests

4.What's the author's purpose in writing the passage?

A.To call our attention to the changes of human behavior.

B.To urge scientists to do more research in social science.

C.To give us a detailed explanation of human behavior.

D.To present an argument in the field of social science.

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项.

Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging emotion, unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems, and possibly cancer.

1    Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger and scream and yell. But other people keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing anger.

For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person's health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain releases the same hormones (荷  尔  蒙  ) , They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or sugar into the blood,etc.   2  

Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease and they believe that those who keep anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure.

3     They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say. ___4___ Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably.

Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry.    5
