Sometimes people call each other “scaredy-cat”, but have you ever thought about this expression? When a cat is frightened, its heart starts beating faster, its muscles get tense, and there are changes in the chemicals in its blood-stream.
Although the cat doesn’t realize this, its body is getting ready for action. If the danger continues, this animal will do one of the two things. It will defend itself, or it will run away as fast as it can.
Something like this also happens to people. When we are excited, angry, scared, or aroused by other emotions, our bodies go through many physical changes. Our hearts beat faster, and our muscles get tense. All of these changes make us more alert and ready to react. We, too, get ready to defend ourselves or run.
Human beings, however, have a problem that animals never face. If we give way to our feelings, we can get into trouble. Have you ever said something in anger—or hit somebody and regretted it later? Have you ever shouted at a teacher, told somebody you were lonely, or said you were in love, and then wished later you had kept your mouth shut? It isn’t always wise to express your feelings freely.
Does this mean that it’s smarter always to hide our feeling? No!If you keep feelings of anger, sadness, and bitterness hidden away or bottled up inside, your body stays tense. Physical illnesses can develop, and you can feel churned up inside. It can actually be bad for your health.
Feeling that you keep all bottled up inside don’t just go away. It’s as if you bought some bananas and stuck them in a cupboard. You might not be able to see them, but before long you’d smell them. And if you open the cupboard, chances are you’d see little fruit flies hovering all over them. They’d be rotten.
You can try to treat emotions as if they were bananas in the cupboard, you can hide them and you can pretend they don’t exist, but they’ll still be around. And at last you’ll have to deal with them, just like those bananas.
1. It is mentioned in the passage that human beings get into trouble because they______.
A. are not as alert as animals
B. sometimes can’t control their feelings
C. always do something wrong to other people
D. don’t pay attention to their physical changes
2. The underlined words “churned up”in the 5th paragraph mean “ ”.
A. very shocked
B. beaten heavily
C. very frightened
D. disturbed badly
3. The author wants to tell us in the last two paragraphs that______.
A. you’ll not completely get away from your feelings
B. you should treat emotions as bananas in a cupboard
C. feeling will gradually disappear when you hold them in
D. it is good for your health to keep pleasant feelings inside
4. The author writes this article in order to______.
A. tell us that it isn’t good to keep feelings inside
B. give us some advice on how to express our feelings
C. make us deal with feelings in a wise way
D. make us know that it isn’t always wise to express our feelings freely

较难题目特训:科普知识类
“So what is Quintura?” you may ask. “I like the search engine I currently use, My Favorite Search Engine. Why do I need anything else? My Favorite Search Engine knows everything about every subject I am interested in and I can access all of the information available on the Web with My Favorite Search Engine.”
“Oh, yes!” we answer. “Indeed! We have no doubt that you have chosen the best search engine for your own search purposes! We don’t want you to part with your favorite ─ Yahoo, MSN or Google.”
However, what if you think about searching in a different way. Have you ever raked through the paper card index of a big library? You have to find the necessary letter (or their combination), take the correct drawer, and start sorting through the cards. Ring any bells? After much time and effort, finally you find the long-awaited card!
Of course web search engines take away the laborious task of sifting (筛选) through paper index cards. And if you know the book’s exact author and title, either search is easy ─ on the web or in a library. But what if you know only your general search scope? Neither the author’s name nor the book title. In a library, the only way out is to ask a librarian. But on the web, what do you do? You are on your own.
Until now, Quintura is the very know-all librarian!
Imagine a conversation between you and the search engine you use most often, My Favorite Search Engine (MFSE).
You: I need some books on physics.
MFSE: No problem. We have a lot of good literature.
You: Oh. . . so many of them!
MFSE: You asked for books on physics, here, I’ve found some more.
You: No, I need only one branch of physics.
MFSE: But I have all the branches! Thousands of books. Choose whatever you want.
You: But I need the branch on solid movement: acceleration, friction and so on.
MFSE: Here they are. Books on physics. . .
Now imagine beginning the same conversation with Quintura (Qu).
You: I need some books on physics.
Qu: OK! We have a lot of good literature; what branch of physics do you need?
You: Branch? I’m not sure of its name.
Qu: What is your branch about?
You: Solid movement: acceleration, friction and so on.
Qu: Let’s see. Here is mechanics! Please note this list of books, our visitors mostly ask for these books on mechanics.
You: Thank you.

D. To prove the paper card index is worse than web search engines.
3. In the writer’s opinion, if you know only your general search scope you’d better use .
