Question

12．Think Positive and Feel Positive
When you're in a stressful situation，are you confident or unsafe？Do you react positively or negatively？
（71）A  A study by researchers at the University of Notre Dame found that negative thinking，and depression coming from it，can be catching in certain circumstances．
For example，the researchers studied 103 freshman college roommates who'd been paired casually．（72）E     Specifically，the researchers measured the subject's likelihood to see negative events as a reflection of their abilities and disadvantages．
After only six months，it became clear that thinking patterns and styles can be catching．（73）D
And students paired with more positive thinking roommates were more likely to become more positive in their thinking and report less depression．
（74）B   So they might be particularly accessible to adopting the thought and behavior patterns of people around them-perhaps more so than people in less intense situations at other stages of life．
But maybe not．Other research has shown that，in general，people are affected by how those around them think．（75）F  

A．The answer may depend in part on whom you're around．
B．Now college freshman are in a unique，life changing environment．
C．However，think positive and feel positive is quite important for college students．
D．Students paired with a negative-thinking roommate"caught"that style and became more depressed themselves．
E．They measured each roommate's cognitive weakness，or tendency to give in to negative thinking and depression．
F．So surrounding a negative，depressed person with people who think positively could be a powerful form of treatment．
G．But what was to the researchers'embarrassment was that the subjects never talked with each and stayed apart from each other for most of the time．

解答 AEDBF
71．A联系上文题．根据前文When you're in a stressful situation，are you confident or unsafe？Do you react positively or negatively？可知当你处于压力状态时，你是自信还是感到不安？你的反应是积极的还是消极的？A项：The answer may depend in part on whom you're around．答案可能部分取决于你身边的人．符合文意．故选A．      
72．E上下文串联．根据上句For example，the researchers studied 103 freshman college roommates who'd been paired casually．例如，研究人员研究了103个随意配对的大一新生室友．E项：They measured each roommate's cognitive weakness，or tendency to give in to negative thinking and depression．他们测试了每个室友的认知弱点，或屈服于消极的想法和抑郁的倾向性．符合文意．故选E．        
73．D理解判断题．根据下句And students paired with more positive thinking roommates were more likely to become more positive in their thinking and report less depression．可知和思想更更积极的室友配对的学生更可能变得更积极的思考和减少抑郁．D项：Students paired with a negative-thinking roommate"caught"that style and became more depressed themselves．和抱着消极想法的室友配对的学生"抓住"了这种风格，使自己变得更加压抑．符合文意．故选D．
74．B归纳总结题．根据后文So they might be particularly accessible to adopting the thought and behavior patterns of people around them-perhaps more so than people in less intense situations at other stages of life．可知因此他们可能特别容易接受周围人的思维和行为模式，也许比在其他阶段的不那么激烈的情况下更容易接受．符合文意．故选B． 
75．F总结归纳题．根据上句But maybe not．Other research has shown that，in general，people are affected by how those around them think．可知其他研究表明，一般来说，人们受到周围人对他们看法的影响．F项：So surrounding a negative，depressed person with people who think positively could be a powerful form of treatment．因此，让一个积极思考的人陪在一个消极的，抑郁的人身边可能是一个强大的治疗形式．符合文意．故选F．
