Decision-making under Stress
A new review based on a research shows that acute stress affects the way the brain considers the advantages and disadvantages, causing it to focus on pleasure and ignore the possible negative (负面的) consequences of a decision.
The research suggests that stress may change the way people make choices in predictable ways.
“Stress affects how people learn,” says Professor Mara Mather. “People learn better about positive than negative outcomes under stress.”
For example, two recent studies looked at how people learned to connect images(影像) with either rewards or punishments. In one experiment, some of the participants were first stressed by having to give a speech and do difficult math problems in front of an audience; in the other, some were stressed by having to keep their hands in ice water. In both cases, the stressed participants remembered the rewarded material more accurately and the punished material less accurately than those who hadn’t gone through the stress.
This phenomenon is likely not surprising to anyone who has tried to resist eating cookies or smoking a cigarette while under stress –at those moments, only the pleasure associated with such activities comes to mind. But the findings further suggest that stress may bring about a double effect. Not only are rewarding experiences remembered better, but negative consequences are also easily recalled.
The research also found that stress appears to affect decision-making differently in men and women. While both men and women tend to focus on rewards and less on consequences under stress, their responses to risk turn out to be different.
Men who had been stressed by the cold-water task tended to take more risks in the experiment while women responded in the opposite way. In stressful situations in which risk-taking can pay off big, men may tend to do better, when caution weighs more, however, women will win.
This tendency to slow down and become more cautious when decisions are risky might also help explain why women are less likely to become addicted than men: they may more often avoid making the risky choices that eventually harden into addiction.
1.We can learn from the passage that people under pressure tend to ______.
A.keep rewards better in their memory
B.recall consequences more effortlessly
C.make risky decisions more frequently
D.learn a subject more effectively
2.According to the research, stress affects people most probably in their ______.
A.ways of making choices B.preference for pleasure
C.tolerance of punishments D.responses to suggestions
3.The research has proved that in a stressful situation, ______.
A.women find it easier to fall into certain habits
B.men have a greater tendency to slow down
C.women focus more on outcomes
D.men are more likely to take risks

TV Affects dreams
We have dreams almost every night. Do you ever notice the colors of your dreams? Do you dream in black and white or do you dream in yellow, red and green?
New research suggests that the type of television you watched as a child has a great effect on the color of your dreams.
While almost all people under 25 dream in color, thousands of people over 55, all of whom were brought up with black and white TV sets, often dream in monochrome(黑白画面)。
“It suggests there could be a critical period in our childhood when watching films has a big impact on the way dreams are formed”, said Eva Murzyn, a psychology student at Dundee University in Britain who carried out the study.
Research from 1915 through the 1950s suggested that the vast majority of dreams are in black and white. But the tide(潮流) turned in the sixties, and later results suggested that up to 83 percent of dreams contain some color.
Since this period also marked the transition(过渡) between black-and-white film and TV and Technicolor(印染法彩色)，an obvious explanation was that the media had been painting people’s dreams. However, there weren’t any firm conclusions.
But now Miss Murzyn believes she has proven the link. She made a survey of more than 60 people, half of whom were over 55 and half of whom were under 25.
She asked the volunteers to answer a questionnaire on the color of their dreams and their childhood exposure to film and TV.
She then analyzed her own data. Only 4.4 percent of the under-25s’ dreams were black and white. The over-55s who had had access to color TV and film during their childhood also reported a very low proportion of just 7.3 percent.
But the over-55s who only had access to black-and –white media reported dreaming in black and white about a quarter of the time.
Even though they would have spent only a few hours a day watching TV or films, their attention and emotion would have been heightened during this time, leaving a deeper imprint on their mind, Miss Murzyn told the New Scientist.
“The crucial time is between three and ten when we all begin to have the ability to dream”, she said.
1.What’s the main idea of the passage?
A. The relationship between dream color and types of television and films people watch.
B. The relationship between dreams and types of television and films that people watch.
C. The relationship between people’s dreams and colors that they see in their life.
D. The relationship between dream color and the age of the people.
2.From the text, we can see that ___________.
A. all people who are below 25 dream in color
B. watching TV or films probably affects dream color
C. people over 55 always dream in monochrome
D. people begin to dream when they are 10 years old
3. Which is WRONG according to the passage?
A. Miss Murzyn thought she has proved the connection between dream color and TV and films.
B. The 1960s was a time which marked a transition in dream color.
C. The period between 3 and 10 is an important time in forming dreams.
D. Eva Murzyn is a professor at Dundee University in Britain.
4.In which magazine can you find the article?
A. Aging Healthily B. Psychology Analysis
C. New Scientist D. TV And Film Reviews

It is Saturday night and you want to turn on your television. Can you? Or do you first need to call your partner, or your child, or whoever it is in your household who knows which handset to use and which buttons to press? If so, you are not alone. Our televisions are an unspoken disaster zone. Finally, somebody has said something.
All hail (致敬) the Duke of Edinburgh. “To work out how to operate a television set, you practically have to make love to the thing,” he says, in this week’s Saturday Review. “And why can’t
you have a handset that people who are not ten years old can actually read?”
The Duke is often a reactionary (反动者), but this is not reactionary thinking. Our computers become ever easier to operate. Our cars almost drive themselves. Some mobile telephones, such as the phone, are obvious wonders: successful designs that could be operated by a child. The remote control of your television, by comparison, has changed only for the worse.
The first wide – spread commercial remote control was the Zenith Space Command, designed in 1956. It had four buttons: power, channel up, channel down and volume. Oh, for such simple things in our lives today. Before long, the remote control was out of control. Not just with televisions, but with video players, too. They came and went, and a whole generation never figured out how to use them. Why not? In all other ways, televisual technology has developed a great deal. The screens have grown grander, the picture definition (清晰度) has grown higher, and the sound clearer. The remote controls have merely grown. Nobody ever uses half those buttons. A remote revolution is long overdue.
1.What does “Our televisions are an unspoken disaster zone” mean?
A. Television is actually a great danger to humans.
B. It is very difficult to use many TV handsets properly.
C. We should treat televisions in a friendly way.
D. Somebody has said something about television.
2.What the Duke of Edinburgh says actually means that ________.
A. TV remote controls should be made easier to use
B. we must learn to respect TVs
C. we should love watching TV
D. we should buy handsets to control our TVs
3.What’s the author’s attitude to television remote controls?
A. Positive. B. Negative. C. Neutral (中立的). D. Indifferent (漠然的)
4.Which is the best title for the passage?
A. Remote Revolution. B. From Buttons to Handsets.
C. Televisions－Out of Control. D. Computers－Under Control.

高一英语用适当的词完成句子困难题查看答案及解析
Sleep is a basic human need, as basic as the need for oxygen. Getting a good night’s sleep is not only directly related to how we feel the next day, but to our long-term health as well. However, many of us suffer from insomnia (失眠). Even more of us report at least one night of restless sleep per week. This is a serious problem.
Well, how can we make sure that we rest well and stay healthy? Here are some suggestions.
If you can’t sleep in the middle of the night, don’t get up. The bright light will affect your body clock and worsen your insomnia. Stay in bed!
Avoid short sleep during the day, except for a brief ten to fifteen-minute sleep between 2:00 and 4:00 P.M.
Limit your time in bed to the average number of hours you’ve actually slept per night last week. Don’t try to make up for lost sleep. It can’t be done.
Get regular exercise each day, but finish at least six hours before bedtime. Exercising in the evening can help keep you awake.
Take a hot bath for thirty minutes within two hours of bedtime. The bath will warm you, relax you, and make you feel sleepy.
Keep our bedroom dark, quiet, and well ventilated (通风).
Keep a regular schedule seven days a week. Avoid sleeping late on weekends. Although it may feel good while you’re doing it, sleeping late on weekend can lead to insomnia during the week.
Don’t drink alcohol (酒精). Although, having a drink before bed makes you sleep, alcohol loses its effects after a while. The secondary effects of alcohol can wake you up during the second half of your night’s sleep.
Keep the face of the clock in your bedroom turned away, and don’t find out what time it is when you awaken in the night.
1.The first paragraph serves as a(n) __________.
A. argument B. introduction
C. comment D. explanation
2. Which of the following is NOT advised for a good night’s sleep?
A. Staying in bed after failing to sleep.
B. Don’t exercise six hours before sleeping
C. Don’t drink alcohol before sleeping.
D. Preventing the wind from blowing into your room.
3. To sleep well, you need to __________.
A. get up late on weekends
B. sleep during the day sometimes
C. avoid looking at your clock
D. have a bath in the morning
4.The text mainly about__________ .
A. some keys to a better night’s sleep
B. some advantages of having a good sleep
C. some effects of bad night’s sleep
D. some reasons for insomnia
