Jim suffered heart problems.In conversation he expressed little joy and it seemed that his life was drawing to a close.
When his heart problems led to operation,Jim went through it successfully,and a full recovery was expected.Within days,however,his heart was not beating properly.Jim was rushed back to operation,but nothing was found to explain the cause of his illness.He died on the operating table on the day before his 48th birthday.
Dr.Bruce Smoller,a psychologist(心理学家),had had many conversations with him,and the more he learned,the stranger he realized Jim’s case was.When Jim was a child,his father,a teacher,suffered a heart attack and stayed home to recover.One morning Jim asked his father to look over his homework,promising to come home from school at noon to pick it up.His father agreed,but when Jim returned his father had died.Jim’s father was 48.
“I think all his life Jim believed he killed his father,”Dr. Smoller says.“He felt that if he had not asked him to look at his homework,his father would have lived.Jim had been troubled by the idea.The operation was the trial(判决) he had expected for forty years.”Smoller believes that Jim willed himself not to live to the age of 48.
Jim’s case shows the powerful role that attitude(态度) plays in physical health,and that childhood experiences produce far-reaching effect on the health of grown-ups.Although most cases are less direct than Jim’s,studies show that childhood events,besides genes,may well cause such midlife diseases as cancer,heart disease and mental illness.
Jim was sent back to operation because ______.
A.his heart didn’t work well
B.he expected a full recovery
C.his life was drawing to a close
D.the first one wasn’t well performed

A.Jim died at a young age.
B.Jim died on the operating table.
C.Both Jim and his father died of the same disease.
D.Jim’s death is closely connected with his father’s.
From Smoller’s words,we can infer that ______.
A.Jim’s father cared little about his study
B.Smoller agreed that Jim did kill his father
C.Jim thought he would be punished some day
D.Smoller believed Jim wouldn’t live to the age of 48
Which of the following could have strong effect on one’s physical health according to the text?
a.One’s genes. b.One’s life in childhood. c.One’s physical education. d.The date of one’s birthday. e.The opinions one has about something. |
A.a,b,d B.a,b,e
C.a,c,e D.b,c,d
【小题1】A
【小题2】D
【小题3】C
【小题4】B
解析:
【小题1】这是一道细节推断题。根据第二段“Within days,however,his heart was not beating properly.Jim was rushed back to operation”可知手术后Jim的心脏跳动不正常,所以再次手术。
【小题2】这是一道归纳题。从第三段和第四段可以分析出,Jim一直认为自己导致了父亲的死,所以他认为也只能活到48岁,Jim的死和他父亲的死有很大关系,这点让Smoller教授感到吃惊。
【小题3】这是一道推理题。根据第四段“Jim had been troubled by the idea.The operation was the trial he had expected for forty years.”可知这个手术是Jim等待了40年的判决,也就是说Jim一直认为自己杀死了父亲,会受到惩罚。
【小题4】这是一道归纳题。根据最后一段“Jim’s case shows the powerful role that attitude plays in physical health...studies show that childhood events,besides genes,may well cause such midlife diseases as cancer,heart disease and mental illness.”可知影响身体状况的有3个因素:态度、童年时期的事情和基因。
Parent fans, both dads and mums, are shaming British football with their bad behaviour. Hundreds of junior soccer matches had to be abandoned last season because parent fans were swearing or even fighting on the touchline. At schools and clubs across the UK, hundreds of more matches also had to be called off for the same reason.
Reports tell of abuse at referees(裁判), players and coaches and fight breaking out on the touchline.
Enough is enough Peter Wright, a keen referee of junior soccer, finally hung up his boots last season. He decided to walk away for good. He said “Every week I have had to take abuse and I’ve had enough of it.”
“Parents’ behaviour is reducing many school teachers, referees, coaches and volunteers to despair.”
The kids are suffering Jim Peter, a referee, said, “We are getting desperate and the kids are suffering.” He described the way spectators(观众)behave as abysmal and getting worse year by year. The big question is why so many parents shame their children in this way. Aggressive Behavior Contracts may have to be introduced to stop the violence and abuse. If not, the game will suffer.
Sign up to good conduct Last season players and parents were made to sign a new good behavior contract. “If a parent breaks the contract, I take his or her child off the pitch and get him or her to explain why I have done so to the child,” said Marc Nash, Wallsend’s assistant leader.
“The next step is to ban both the parent and the child, but happily, so far this has not been necessary.”
