They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and possibly cancer.Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time. Some p
2、eople express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger, and scream and yell.But other people keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing anger.For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a persons health
3、 than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain releases the same hor- mones (荷尔蒙).They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or sugar into the blood, etCIn general the person feels excited and ready to act.Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be
4、 dangerous. They believe that those who express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease, and they believe that those who keep their anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure.Doctors say the solution is learning how to deal with anger. They say the first step i
5、s to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about.

N
9、o school I have ever taught in has ever ignored spelling or considered it unimportant as a basic skill. There are, however, different ideas about how to teach it, or how much priority (优先) it must be given over general language development and writing ability. The problem is how to encourage a child
10、 to express himself freely and confidently in writing without holding him back with the complexities (复杂性) of spelling. If spelling becomes the only focal (焦点的) point of his teachers interest, clearly a bright child will be likely to “play safe”. He will tend to write only words within his spelling
11、range, choosing to avoid adventurous language. Thats why teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability.I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about a personal experience: “This work is terrible! The
12、re are far too many spelling errors and your writing is terrible.” It may have been a sharp criticism of the pupils technical abilities in writing, but it was also a sad reflection on the teacher who had omitted(省略) to read the essay, which contained some beautiful expressions of the child s deep fe
13、elings. The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the errors, but if his priorities had centered on the child s ideas, an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more motivation (动机) to seek improvement.1Teachers are different in their opinions about _.

16、nt of teachers4 The author seems to think that the teachers judgment on that sensitive piece of writing is _.Aunfair Breasonable Cfoolish Dcareless三Perhaps the most famous theory, the study of body movement, was suggested by Professor Ray Birdwhistell. He believes that physical appearance is often c
17、ulturally programmed. In other words, we learn our looks- we are not born with them.A baby has generally informed face features. A baby, according to Birdwhistell, learns where to set the eyebrows by looking at those around- family and friends. This helps explain why the people of some areas of the
18、US looks much alike.New Englanders or Southerners have certain common face features that can not be explained by genetics (遗传学). The exact shape of the mouth is not set at birth, it is learned after. In fact, the final mouth shape is not formed until well after new teeth are set. For many, this can
19、be well into grown-ups. A husband and wife together for a long time often come to look somewhat alike. We learn our looks from those around us.This is perhaps why in a single country there are areas where people smile more than those in other areas. In the US, for example, the south is the part of t
20、he country where the people smile most frequently. In New England they smile less, and in the western part of New York States still less. Many southerners find cities such as New York cold and unfriendly, partly because people in Madison Avenue smile less than people on Peachtree Street in Atlanta,
21、Georgia. People in largely populated areas also smile and greet each other in public less than people in small towns do.1Ray Birdwhistell believes that physical appearance _. Ahas little to do with culture Bhas much to do much culture Cis ever changing Dis different from place to place2According to
