   Oh,you’ve been there: Your parents are insisting you come home by 10 ,when everyone else can stay out until midnight. Your soccer coach keeps benching you. 36 We all have days when we think we might explode.

   That's because anger is 101 percent normal — in fact,it ,s rooted in the most primitive of survival mechanisms(机制) . 37 But humans,highly evolved (进化的) brains attach similar meaning to things that aren't life-threatening but produce an equally intense response.

   Of course,no one ever got into trouble for having angry thoughts. 38 Think about it: Scream at your parents? Grounded. Eye-roll at your teacher? Sent to detention(课后留校的惩罚) .So consider the following survival guide to making it through those moments when you're about to explode.

   First,recognize your anger response. When you’ re angry,your whole body reacts,and your angry feelings can go from zero to out-of-control before they even register in your brain!That's why it's important to pay attenjion to physical signals. 39 

   Second,pause the passion. It can be impossible to make right decisions when you re angry. So once you ve recognized that you re mad,stop whatever you’ re doing,which will stop your body's anger response and get your brain back on track. Try one of these simple,science-backed methods to freeze your feelings and calm your mind. For example,you can take deep breaths,or close your eyes and count (to 10,to 100 ... whatever it takes!) . 40  

   Once the heat of the moment is behind you,you may be able to move right on.

   A. You’ re angry,and who wouldn't be?

   B. People sometimes lose control and get violent.

   C. A simple “Hey man,not cool” would probably do the trick.

   D. Or shift your focus to something pleasant to lift your spirits.

   E. It is what you do about your anger that makes all the difference.

   F. When an animal is threatened,it feels anger as a signal to fight to stay alive.

   G. Learn to recognize them on the spot and you'11 be able to keep your anger in check.

What will man be like in the future —5,000 or even 50 ,000 years from now? We can only make guesses,of course,but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today,for man is slowly changing all the time.

Let us take an obvious example. Man,500 years ago,was shorter than he is today. Five hundred years is relatively a short period of time,so we may assume that man will continue to grow taller. Again,in the modern world we use our brains a great deal. Even so,we still make use of only about 20% of the brain's capacity. As time goes on,however,we shall have to use our brains more and more,and eventually we shall need larger ones!This is likely to bring about a physical change to the head. In particular,the fore-head (前额) will grow larger.

Nowadays our eyes are in constant (持续不断的) use. In fact,we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over a very long period of time,it is likely that man's eyes will grow stronger.

On the other hand,we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. These,as a result,are likely to grow weaker. At the same time,however,our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern life.

But what about hair? This will probably disappear from the body altogether in the course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future,then,both sexes are likely to be bald (秃头的) .

Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at!

This may be true. All the same,in spite of all these changes,future man will still have a lot in common with us. He will still be a human being,with thoughts and emotions similar to our own.

41. The passage mainly tells us that .

   A. man's life will be different in the future

   B. future man will look quite different from us

   C. man is growing taller as time passes

   D. man's eyes will become weaker 

42. What serves as the evidence that man is changing?

   A. Man's hair is getting thinner and thinner.

   B. Man has got stronger eyes now than before.

   C. Man's arms and legs are becoming lighter and weaker.

   D. Man has been growing taller over the past 500 years.

43. Man's forehead will grow larger probably because.

   A. he will grow taller and stronger

   B. the other 80% of his brain's capacity will grow

   C. he will fully use the 20% of his brain's capacity

   D. he will use his brain more and more as time goes on

44. Which of the following is TRUE about a human being in the future?

   A. He will think and feel less in different ways.

   B. He will be hairless because hair is no longer useful.

   C. He will have smaller eyes and wear better glasses.

   D. His fingers will grow weaker because he doesn’t have to use them.

45. We can learn from the passage that .

   A. human's future life will be boring

   B. men and women will look the same in the future

   C. human beings will become less attractive in the future

   D. future human beings will have different emotions from us

Empathy Last year,researchers from the University of Michigan reported that empathy,the ability to understand other people,among college students had dropped sharply over the past 10 years. 51 Today,people spend more time alone and are less likely to join groups and clubs.

Jennifer Freed,a co-director of a teen program,has another explanation. Turn on the TV,and you’re showered with news and reality shows full of people fighting,competing,and generally treating one another with no respect. 52 There are good reasons not to follow those bad examples. Humans are socially related by nature.

53 Researchers have also found that empathetic teenagers are more likely to have high self-respect. Besides,empathy can be a cure for loneliness,sadness,anxiety,and fear.

Empathy is also an indication of a good leader. In fact,Freed says,many top companies report that empathy is one of the most important things they look for in new managers. 54 “Academicsareimpor- tant. But if you don't have emotionaK情感的) intelligence,you won’t be as successful in work or in your love life ,” she says.

What's the best way to up your EQ(情商) ?

For starters,let down your guard and really listen to others. 55 To really develop empathy,youM better volunteer at a nursing home or a hospital,join a club or a team that has a diverse membership,have a “sharing circle” with your family,or spend time caring for pets at an animal shelter.

   A. Everyone is different,and levels of empathy differ from person to person.

   B. That could be because so many people have replaced face time with screen time,the researchers said.

   C. “One doesn’t develop empathy by having a lot of opinions and doing a lot of talking”’Freed says.

   D. Humans learn by example—and most of the examples on it are anything but empathetic.

   E. Empathy is a matter of learning how to understand someone else —both what they think and how they feel.

   F. Good social skills —including empathy are a kind of emotional intelligencethat will help you succeed in many areas of life.

   G. Having relationships with other people is an important part of being human -and having empathy is decisive to those relationships.
