The state of being in love has even been compared to being sick or mad. A study by Professor Semir

12、 Zeki of University College London has found that love does affect peoples brains by making them feel great.Zeki studied young men and women who had recently fallen in love. He found that, when they were looking at photos of their loved ones, there was heightened activity in four areas of their brai

13、ns. These areas deal with emotions, and one of them, in particular, is known to respond to drugs that cause feelings of great joy and excitement. Interestingly, the study also found a lack of activity in two other areas of the brain when the volunteers looked at their lovers photographs. One of thes

14、e areas is linked to feelings of sadness, while the other is often active in people suffering from depression. It seems love really can be uplifting.The state of being in love, according to some scientists, may actually be good for your health. Although scientists know that being in love can make a

15、person feel great, the exact influence of love on a persons health is harder to determine. However, scientists say that people do need love in order to live healthy lives.According to Dr. Thomas Lewis, people need to be in relationships because that is how we are designed. He says the brain can only

16、 maintain(保持) the overall stability of a persons immune(免疫) system, bodily rhythms, and heart if it receives input(输入) from outside the body in the form of emotional connections with others.Professor Antonio Damasio has a similar view. He says that love enriches a persons imagination and creativity,

17、 and makes a persons body work better. He also believes that love can even improve the bodys ability to fight against disease. Damasios wise words of advice are “ Choose love and you will live longer.”21What is the main idea of this passage ? _.A. love can really cause people activeB. love has an ef

18、fect on songs and booksC. love is linked with emotionD. love is what we need22What does the underlined word “uplifting” mean? It means _.A. inspiring B. available C. cold D. mad23From the passage we can conclude that_.A. people write songs, poems and books to say love is the sweetest thingB. nobody

19、but Professor Semir Zeki has understood love does affect peoples brainsC. being in love sometimes may make someone act as if he/ she were madD. love causes heightened activity in all areas of a persons brains BWithout proper planning, tourism can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can cr

20、owd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants(当地居民) of a country. If tourists create too much traffic, the inhabitants become annoyed and unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely. They forget how much tourism can help the countrys economy. It is important to

21、think about the people of a destination (目的地) country and how tourism affects them. Tourism should help a country keep the customs and beauty that attract tourists. Tourism should also advance the well-being (health and happiness) of local inhabitants. Too much tourism can be a problem. If tourism g

22、rows too quickly, people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry. This means that other parts of the countrys economy can suffer. On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people can lose jobs. Businesses can also lose money. It costs a great deal of money to build large hotel

23、s, airports, air terminals, first-class roads, and other support facilities (设施) needed by tourist attractions. For example, a major international-class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to build. If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel lose mo

24、ney. Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be support facilities as well, including roads to get to the hotel, electricity, sewers (阴沟) to handle waste, and water. All of these support facilities cost money. If they are not used because there are not enough tourists, jobs and money are lo

25、st.24Which of the following has most probably been discussed in the paragraph that goes before the passage?A. It is extremely important to develop tourism.B. Building roads and hotels is essential.C. Support facilities are highly necessary.D. Planning is of great importance to tourism.25Too much tou

28、e cant make us tired. It sounds absurd. But a year ago, scientists tried to find out how long the human brain could labor without reaching a stage of fatigue (疲劳). To the amazement of these scientists, they discovered that blood passing through the brain, when it is active, shows no fatigue at all!

29、If we took a drop of blood from a day laborer, we would find it full of fatigue toxins(毒素) and fatigue products. But if we took blood from the brain of an Albert Einstein, it would show no fatigue toxins at the end of the day. So far as the brain is concerned, it can work as well and swiftly at the

30、end of eight or even twelve hours of effort as at the beginning. The brain is totally tireless. So what makes us tired? Some scientists declare that most of our fatigue comes from our mental and emotional(情绪的) attitudes. One of Englands most outstanding scientists, J.A. Hadfield, says, “The greater

31、part of the fatigue from which we suffer is of mental origin. In fact, fatigue of purely physical origin is rare.” Dr. Brill, a famous American scientist, goes even further. He declares, “One hundred percent of the fatigue of sitting worker in good health is due to emotional problems.” What kinds of

32、 emotions make sitting workers tired? Joy? Satisfaction? No! A feeling of being bored, anger, anxiety, tenseness, worry, a feeling of not being appreciated-those are the emotions that tire sitting workers. Hard work by itself seldom causes fatigue. We get tired because our emotions produce nervousne

The brain could work for many hours without fatigue.D. A mental workers blood was filled with fatigue toxins.29According

Physical labor.30Whats the authors attitude towards the scientists idea?A. He agrees with them. B. He doubts them.C. He argues against them. D. He hesitates to

35、 accept them.31We can infer from the passage that in order to stay energetic, sitting workers need to _.A. have some good food.

40、Straif , head of the IARC said in a press released. “We now know that outdoor air pollution is not only a major risk to health in general, but also a leading environmental cause of cancer deaths.” On the Chinese social media site Weibo , many users complained about the pollution and shared their con

41、cerns. References to “feed people with smog” have become popular on Weibo and there is a sarcastic(讽刺) play on the expression “serve the people”, as the two have a similar pronunciation.
