考点规范练5(Module 5).阅读理解Fear may be felt in the heart as well as in the head,according to a study that has found a link between the cycles of a beating heart and the chance of someone feeling fear.Tests on healthy volunteers found that they were more likely to feel a sense of fear at the moment when their hearts are contracting and pumping blood around their bodies,compared with the point when the heartbeat is relaxed.Scientists say the results suggest that the heart is able to influence how the brain responds to a fearful event,depending on which point it is at in its regular cycle of contraction and relaxation.Sarah Garfinkel at the Brighton and Sussex Medical School said,“Our study shows for the first time that the way in which we deal with fear is different depending on when we see fearful pictures in relation to our heart.”The study tested 20 healthy volunteers on their reactions to fear as they were shown pictures of fearful faces.Dr Garfinkel said,“The study showed that fearful faces are better noticed when the heart is pumping than when it is relaxed.Thus our hearts can also affect what we see and what we dont seeand guide whether we see fear.”To further understand this relationship,the scientists also used a brain scanner to show how the brain influences the way the heart changes a persons feeling of fear.“We have found an important mechanism by which the heart and brain speak to each other to change our feelings and reduce fear,”Dr Garfinkel said.“We hope that by increasing our understanding about how fear is dealt with and ways that it could be reduced,we may be able to develop more successful treatments for anxiety disorders,and also for those who may be suffering from serious stress disorder.”【语篇导读】本文主要介绍对20名健康的志愿者进行的恐惧反应试验,告诉读者大脑与心脏都能感知到恐惧,而且心脏跳动的周期与人们感知恐惧的机会有关联。这份研究成果未来有望更成功地用于治疗忧虑症以及应激障碍疾病。1.What is the finding of the study?A.Ones heart affects how he feels fear.B.Fear is a

shown pictures of fearful faces.(这项研究对20名健康的志愿者试验了当他们看到恐惧面孔图片时的反应。)”以及第五段中的“.the scientists also used a brain scanner to show how the brain influences the way the heart changes a persons feeling of fear.(为了演示大脑是如何影响心脏改变人对恐惧的感知方式,科学家们还使用了大脑扫描仪。)”可知,研究是通过分析志愿者们对恐惧图片的反应以及来自大脑扫描仪的数据进行的。故选C项。3.Which of the following is closest in meaning to “mechanism” in Paragraph 6?A.Order.B.System.C.Machine.D.Treatment.答案:B解析:词义猜测题。根据画线词所在的句子“We have found an important mechanism by which the heart and the brain speak to each other to change our feelings and reduce

cycle of fear and anxietyC.finding the key to the heartbrain communicationD.understanding different fears in our hearts and heads答案:A解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“.we may be able to develop more successful treatments for anxiety disorders,and also for those who may be suffering from serious stress disorder.(我们或许能够更成功地治疗忧虑症,还可以治疗那些可能正遭受应激障碍疾病痛苦的患者。)”可推知,该研究有助于更好地治疗忧虑症和应激障碍。故选A项。.完形填空(2015云南师大附中适应性考试)Visitors to the dry,hot Sonoran Desert of the southern Arizona and northern Mexico are amazed at
