第2题
听力原文:W: Now people are suffering more stress, especially women. I wonder what most people can do to relax themselves?
M: Well, I read of a global study about this. According to it, listening to music is what most people do to ease stress.
W: I guess, that's because we have easy access to music via radio, TV, personal CD players and so many other channels.
M: Yeah, and watching TV is listed as the next popular stress reliever, followed by taking a bath or shower.
W: Well, I've heard that it is quite popular in your country for people to consult psychologists and doctors.
M: I'm afraid that's not true. I believe only a few people think it's helpful.
W: I have noticed that our manager always looks energetic, even though he works more than 12 hours a day. Perhaps, he takes some specific medicine.
M: I know his recipe. He likes dancing and often visits bars alone so that he can dance to his heart's content.
W: So that's how it is. But when I feel anxious or exhausted, I prefer to take a walk or read a funny story.
M: That's not a bad idea. Meanwhile, you can find some other ways to relax yourself if they are suitable for you.

W: That's nice. Do they have any concrete examples?
M: For instance, in a recent study, 15 surgeons were given some highly stressed math problems to solve. They were divided into three groups: one worked in silence; and in another, the surgeons listened to music of their choice on headphones; the third listened to classic music chosen by the researchers.
W: What're the results?
M: The results of the study may surprise you. The doctors who got to choose their music experienced less stress and scored better than the others.
W: That is surprising. How to explain this?
M: One possible explanation is that listening to music you tike stimulates the Alfa-wave in the brain, increases the heart rate and expands the breathing. That helps to reduce stress and sharpen concentration.
W: Is there any other research?
M: Yes. Other research suggests a second relation between the music and the brain; by examining the student's blood after listening to a variety of classical music collections, the researchers found that some students showed a large increase in a chemical substance, a natural pain reliever, in their blood, which can held soothe the patient.
W: Well, thank you so much for being with us today and having us know about another function of music.
(23)
A.Training given to music therapists.
B.How music prevents disease.
C.Studies on the benefits of music.
D.How musicians create music.

W: Because they have to, legally I mean.
M: Exactly! In this case the reason is obvious, so we usually don't question it. But when the reason is not so obvious and especially when the behavior. could have negative consequences we'll more likely to feel a need to explain the causes of the behavior. Social psychologists have a term for this, for the process of explaining the causes of the behavior, it's called "causal attribution". And one theory suggests, there's a pattern in the way we go about attributing causes to people's behavior. According to this theory, there are two categories of reasons: internal factors and external factors. Again, Lisa, say you're driving down the road and all of a sudden some guy turns into the lane right in front of you, and you have to slam on your brakes to avoid an accident. How do you react?
W: I'll probably get very angry.
M: Because...
W: Well, he's not paying attention, he's a bad driver.
M: So you automatically attribute the driver's behavior. to an internal factor. He himself is to blame because he is careless.
W: So if I said it was because of heavy traffic or something, I'd be attributing his behavior. to an external factor, something beyond his control.
M: Good. Now how do we usually explain our own negative behavior?
W: We blame external factors.
M: That's right.
(23)
A.Common causes of anger.
B.Judging people's behavior.
C.Changing people's attitudes.
D.The effects of negative behavior.
第7题
The worker and employee are anxious, not only because they might find themselves out of a job, they are anxious also because they are unable to acquire any real satisfaction or interest in life. They live and die without ever having confronted the fundamental realities of human existence as emotionally and intellectually independent and productive human beings.
Those higher up on the social ladder are no less anxious. Their lives are no less empty than those of their subordinates. They are even more insecure in some respects. They are in a highly competitive race. To be promoted or to fall behind is not a matter of salary but even more a matter of self-respect. When they apply for their first job, they are tested for intelligence as well as for the right mixture of submissiveness and independence. From that moment on they are tested again—by the psychologists, for whom testing is a big business, and by their superiors, who judge their behavior, sociability, capacity to get along, etc. This constant need to prove that one is as good as or better than one's fellow-competitor creates constant anxiety and stress, the very causes of unhappiness and illness. Am I suggesting that we should return to the pre-industrial mode of production or to nineteenth century "free enterprise capitalism"? Certainly not. Problems are never solved by returning to a stage which one has already outgrown. I suggest transforming our social system from a bureaucratically managed industrialism in which maximal production and consumption are ends in themselves into a humanist industrialism in which man and full development of his potentialities—those of love and reason—are the aims of all social arrangements. Production and consumption should serve only as means to this end, and should be prevented from ruling man.
By "well-oiled cog in the machinery" (Para. 1) the author intends to render the idea that man is ______ .
A.a necessary part of the society though each individual's function is negligible
B.working in complete harmony with the rest of society
C.an unimportant part in comparison with the rest of the society, though functioning smoothly
D.a humble component of the society, especially when working smoothly
