The best title for this passage is probably . A. Forgiveness. B. Forgiveness Is Good for Health.C. A Secret to Keeping Health. D. Anger Is Bad for Health.E One reaction to all the concern about tropical deforestation is a blank stare that asks the question, "Since I don't live there, what does it have to do with me?" The answer is that your way of life, wherever you live in the world, is tied to the tropics in many ways. If you live in a house, wash your hair, eat fruits and vegetables, drink soda, or drive a car, you can be certain that you are affected by the loss of tropical forests. Biologically, we are losing the richest regions on earth when, each minute, a piece of tropical forest, the size of ten city blocks, disappears. As many as five million species of plants, animals, and insects (40 to 50 percent of all living things) live there, and are being lost faster than they can be found and described. Their loss is immeasurable. Take rubber for example. For many uses, only natural rubber from trees will do. Synthetics are not good enough. Today over half the world's commercial rubber is produced in Malaysia and Indonesia, while the Amazon's rubber industry produces much of the world's four million tons. And rubber is an important material in making gloves, balloons, footwear and many sporting goods. Thousands of other tropical plants are valuable for their industrial use. Many scientists strongly believe that deforestation contributes to the greenhouse effect -- or heating of the earth from increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. As we destroy forests, they lose their ability to change carbon dioxide into oxygen. 查看更多

Forgiving someone who has hurt you or let you down is never an easy thing. Several new studies, however, say that it could have a lot of health benefits. When you think of forgiveness, you probably don’t think of it as being a health or medical problem. Studies from Stanford University, on the other hand, show that something like anger can change your well-being.

When cartoon book characters like the incredible(難以置信) Hulk get angry, they change colours and often gain special power. In the real world, anger is less obvious and may be more dangerous. That’s why Professor Fred Luskin, founder of the Stanford Forgiveness Project and author of Forgive for Good, says holding on to anger and hatred can harm your physical and mental health. Two new studies seem to show the same idea.

The studies find that people who are able to forgive feel less stress, less back pain, and less depression(沮喪). They also have fewer headaches, lower blood pressure, and fewer problems on sleeping.

So it doesn’t matter if your anger is caused by the traffic or other things. Learning to let it go is important. Techniques such as deep breath or thought can help. Or just ask yourself if it’s worth hurting yourself by staying angry with someone else.

Forgiveness does not mean that you simply accept what happened and say it’s OK. Instead, it’s a way of making peace with yourself about what happened in the past.

 

49. The author of the passage tries to make his viewpoint clear ______.

   A. by raising his own examples.                 B. based on his own experience.

   C. by mentioning some studies.                 D. by mentioning some typical patients.

50. The example of the cartoon book characters is taken in the passage to____.

   A. support the viewpoint that anger and hatred harm physical and mental health.

   B. introduce a famous expert.

   C. let the reader know the different colours of cartoon faces.

   D. show how to control one’s temper.

51. The underlined phrase “holding on to” in this passage possibly means“__”.

   A. removing.      B. keeping up.       C. getting rid of.      D. learning about.

52. The best title for this passage is probably _______.

   A. Forgiveness.                                   B. Forgiveness Is Good for Health.

  C. A Secret to Keeping Health.               D. Anger Is Bad for Health.
