20、ow brave we can be. Fear of getting too close to a campfire may save you from a bad burn. And fear of getting a bad grade on a test may make you study hard. Being nervous can also sharpen your senses and help you perform better during a track meet. Some people even enjoy being a little scared. Thats
21、 why they like to watch scary movies. Usually, our bodies go into fight only when there is something to fear. However, sometimes this happens when there doesnt seem to be anything to be frightened about. When you feel scared but there doesnt seem to be a clear reason, thats called anxiety. For some

27、t without a glass of milk. Right now, cows, buffaloes, goats and sheep provide most of the worlds milk. But soon, people could get milk from roaches(蟑螂). That isnt as crazy as it might sound. New research shows this “milk” is super-nutritious. Whats more, some scientists have already begun referring
28、 to a lot of insects as source of milk. In 2004, Subramanian Ramaswamy started studying milk crystals(晶体) found inside the roach. At the time, he was teaching biochemistry at the University of Iowa City. To learn more about the milk crystal from roaches, the scientists used X-rays to look at the ato
29、ms in it. The data basically revealed the chemical recipe of the roach crystal. They showed that roach milk is a “complete food”. It contains sugar with a fatty acid stuck to it. Fatty acids are the building blocks of fats. The protein in the milk is also full of essential amino(氨基的) acids, which ar
30、e the building blocks of proteins. Since our bodies cant produce the “essential” ones, we need to get them from our food. And so do baby roaches. Barbara Stay, a biologist at Iowa University, also worked on the new study. She 英语 共 10 页 第 6 页 says the new data show that the roach milk is “three times
31、 more nutritious than cows milk and four times more nutritious than buffalos milk”. Ramaswamy would like to see roach milk turned into a protein supplement to feed hungry people. But not everyone is confident that it can be done. Marcel Dicke studies insects as a potential source of human food at Wa
32、geningen University in the Netherlands. Dicke says this is a “sound study”. However, in his opinion, “Extracting(提取) milk from roaches can only likely be done in a destructive way with only small quantities”. That means youd have to raise and kill many bugs to get even tiny quantities of the milk. 2
33、8. What is the opinion of the scientists about milk in Paragraph 2? A. Many insects are sources of milk. B. Milk is an important part of breakfast. C. Milk from insects is the most nutritious. D.

Roach milk could be a new super food D. Roach milk will be widely used soon D D The key to effective cross-cultural communication is
36、 knowledge. First, it is essential that people understand the potential problems of cross-cultural communication, and make a conscious effort to overcome these problems. Second, it is important to assume that ones efforts will not always be successful, and adjust ones behavior appropriately. For exa
37、mple, one should always assume that there is a great possibility that cultural differences are causing communication problems. One should respond slowly and carefully in cross-cultural exchanges, not jumping to the conclusion that you know what is being thought and said. 英语 共 10 页 第 5 页 William Urys
38、 suggestion for heated conflicts is to stop, listen, and think, or as he puts it “go to the balcony” when the situation gets tense. This helps in cross-cultural communication as well. When things seem to be going badly, stop or slow down and think. What could be going on here? Is it possible that I
39、misinterpreted what they said? Active listening can sometimes be used to check this outby repeating what one thinks he/she heard, one can confirm that he/she understands the communication accurately. Often intermediaries（调解人）can be helpful in cross-cultural communication situations. They can transla
40、te both the essential meaning and the manner of what is said. For example, they can tone down strong statements that would be considered appropriate in one culture but not in another, before they are given to people from a culture that does not talk together in such a strong way. They can also adjus
41、t the timing of what is said and done. Some cultures move quickly to the point; others talk about other things long enough to establish a relationship with the other person. If discussion on the primary topic begins too soon, the group that needs a “warm up” first will feel uncomfortable. An interme

A key first step in bettering your evaluation ability is to look carefully at your sources of health information. Reasonable evaluation includes
46、 knowing where and how to find relevant information, how to separate fact from opinion, how to recognize poor reasoning, and how to analyze information and the reliability of sources. 36 Go to the original source. Media reports often simplify the results of medical research. Find out for yourself wh
47、at a study really reported, and determine whether it was based on good science.Think about the type of study. 37 Watch for misleading language. Some studies will find that a behavior “contributes to” or is “associated with” an outcome; this does not mean that a certain course must lead to a certain
48、result. 38 Carefully read or listen to information in order to fully understand it. Use your common sense. If a report seems too good to be true, probably it is. Be especially careful of information contained in advertisements. 39 Evaluate “scientific” statements carefully, and be aware of quackery(
