Whenever my dog, Barney, comes into the house after having been for a ride in the car, he runs to the pen(围栏) we have set up for him by the back door. It’s not something we intentionally trained him to do. The habit came simply because my husband tended to put him in his pen whenever they came in. After doing it a few times, Barney just figures that’s what you do when you come inside after a car ride.

It’s the same with your thinking. You get into the habit of thinking a certain way and then you’ll rarely question it after that.

This is especially true when you were growing up. You developed habits that just made things easier for you. You probably didn’t even think about them. That’s just the way it was and that’s what you did. Just like Barney thinks he has to go into his pen, you do things automatically as well.

For example, when you were a kid, you may have been told not to “talk back” and to just keep quiet about things that were bothering you. These are habits that might have worked to keep you safe and out of trouble when you were young.

Now that you're grown up, you may be finding that these previous strategies are actually causing you problems. In a relationship, not communicating isn't going to work as your partner can’t read your mind. What works when you're a child may not work when you become an adult.

When you decide you need to change your thoughts, your brain may at first feel that it's not a safe thing to do. Lots of practice and years of experience says it’s not. Also, you don’t know to question the thought. It’s a truth for you. The trick is to look at your results and see if your thoughts are the cause. Be willing to question your thinking and ask yourself if there are thoughts that are hindering (妨碍) you. As you are now in a different phase of your life, different strategies may be needed.

1.As with the dog Barney, people _______.

A．think in a habitual way

B．enjoy having a car ride

C．usually behave in a friendly way

D．have a good memory

2.According to the passage, as a kid, one tends to _________.

A．be afraid to make mistakes

B．have the experience of playing with a dog

C．learn much from adults like his/her parents

D．form a habit which can keep his/her out of trouble

3.In the writer’s opinion, adults should _______.

A．not“talk back”

B．avoid causing any problem

C．change the habit which will bring troubles

D．value their habits formed in their childhood

4.It can be concluded from the passage that ________.

A．the author’s husband must be good at training dogs

B．childhood is the best time for developing good habits

C．one can change his/her life by changing his/her thoughts

D．you should change all your childhood habits when you grow up

If you exhibit positive characteristics such as honesty and helpfulness, the chances are that you will be thought as a good-looking person, for a new study has found that the perception （认知） of physical attractiveness is influenced by a person's personality．

         The study, which was led by Gary W．Lewandowski, has found that people who exhibit negative characteristics, such as unfairness and rudeness, appear to be less physically attractive to observers．In the study, the participants viewed photographs of opposite-sex individuals and rated them for attractiveness before and after being provided with information about their personalities．

         After personality information was received, participants also rated the probability of each individual' s becoming a friend and a dating partner．Information on personality was found to significantly change the probability, showing that cognitive （认知的） processes modify （修改） judgments of attractiveness．

         "Thinking a person as having a desirable personality makes the person more suitable in general as a close relationship partner of any kind," said Lewandowski．

         The findings show that a positive personality leads to greater expectation of becoming friends, which leads to greater expectation of becoming romantic partners and, finally, to being viewed as more physically attractive．The findings remained consistent regardless of how "attractive" the individual was formerly thought to be or of the participants' current relationship status．

         "This research provides a positive outcome by reminding people that personality goes a long way toward determining your attractiveness; it can even change people's impressions of how good-looking you are," said Lewandowski．

1.In the study the participants were required to _____．

         A．try to make friends with each other

         B．try to prove positive characters make people more attractive

         C．exhibit negative characters such as unfairness and rudeness

       D．rate one's attractiveness by photos before and after knowing her or his personality

2.What's the CORRECT order of how cognitive processes modify judgments of attractiveness?

         a．find a person with a positive personality

         b．view the person more physically attractive

         c．want to make friends with the person

         d．want to be his/ her romantic partner

          A．a→c→d→b        B．d→c→b→a     C．c→b→a→d          D．a→d→c→b

3.Which of the following is WRONG according to the passage?

         A．The research reminds people to pay more attention to the personality．

         B．Personality can change people's impressions of one's appearance．

         C．The judgment of one's attractiveness always stays unchanged．

         D．Positive personality may lead to more friends．

4.The passage is written in a（n） _____ tone．

         A．subjective       B．objective      C．sceptical       D．negative

5.Who are the intended readers of this passage?

         A．People with positive characteristics．
