Reading in Depth Passage 1 Why do we cry? Crying makes sense if smoke gets in your eyes or if you’re cutting onions. The tears protect your vision. But what good is emotional crying? Crying often seems to make people feel better when they are sad or upset. A scientist in St. Paul, Minnesota, is investigating the reason for this. Dr. William Frey studied the behavior of a group of people when they cried; 85 percent of the women and 73 percent of the men said they felt better after crying. Frey believes that emotional weeping helps to reduce suffering by ridding the body of harmful chemicals. Such chemicals, he believes, are produced during stress. The chemicals can raise blood pressure, harm digestion, and increase the heartbeat. To test his theory, Frey has been collecting sad tears, drop by drop. He pays men and women to watch sad movies and catch their own tears in a test tube. He has found that about 60 percent of the viewers will cry if the theater is dark and they aren’t crowded close together. During the movies, Frey also records signs of stress, such as fast heartbeat and high blood pressure, to see if crying reduces these. 31. Feeling better after crying seems related to ______.
A、A. cutting onions
B、B. sad movies
C、C. the body’s chemistry
D、D. difference between men and women
Passage 4 The means of communication are too numerous and varied for systematic classification; therefore, the analysis must begin with the means of receiving communication. Feelings may be simply communicated by touch, such as by handshaking or backslapping, although a highly developed system of hand-stroking has enabled blind, deaf, and dumb persons to communicate intelligently. The most fully developed form of auditory communication is, of course, the spoken language. 30. Persons who cannot see, hear, or speak are able to communicate through .
A、A. gesturing
B、B. smelling
C、C. handshaking
D、D. hand-stroking
A、A. easing stress
B、B. reducing blood pressure
C、C. getting rid of chemicals
D、D. all of the above
Passage 2 In the past two years, millions of Americans have suddenly taken an interest in the bicycle as if it were a startling new invention. Annual bike sales doubled between 1960 and 1970, and there are nearly 70 million bikes in the United States today. That’s more than two for every three automobiles. Of course, the bike has been around for more than 150 years, and this isn’t America’s first bicycle boom(兴旺). A wave of bike enthusiasm swept the land in the late 1800s and bicycle production hit two million units in 1897. Then with the coming of the auto, bicycling declined, and for decades remained popular only with children and a few adults. Now, national concern with air pollution and physical fitness has brought the bike back to the forefront ― particularly with adults. More than eight million bikes were sold in the United States last year and a third of them went to adults. The year before, only 15 percent of new bike sales were for adults. 36. In the United States, the bicycle is______.
