         I had an experience some years ago, which taught me something about the ways in which people
    make a bad situation worse by blaming themselves. One January, I had to hold two funerals on
    successive days for two elderly women in my community. Both had died " full of years", as the Bible
    would say. Their homes happened to be near each other, so I paid condolence(吊唁) calls on the
    two families on the same afternoon.
         At the first home, the son of the deceased(已故的)woman said to me, " If only I had sent my
    mother to Florida and gotten her out of this cold and snow, she would be alive today. It's my fault
    that she died." At the second home, the son of the other deceased woman said, " If only I hadn't
    insisted on my mother's going to Florida, she would be alive today.. that long airplane ride, the sudden
    change of climate, was more than she could take. It's my fault that she's dead."
         You see that any time there is a death, the survivors will feel guilty. Because the course of action
    they took turned out bad, they believe that the opposite course-keeping Mother at home, putting off
    the operation-would have turned out better. After all, how could it have turned out any worse?
    There are seem to be two elements involved in our willingness to feel guilty. The first is our pressing
    need to believe that the world makes sense, that there is a cause for every effect and a reason for
    everything that happens that leads us to find patterns and connections both where they really exist
    and where they exist only in our minds.
         The second element is the view that we are the cause of what happens , especially the bad things
    that happen. It seems to be a short step from believing that every event has a cause to believe that
    every disaster is our fault. The roots of this feeling may lie in our childhood.
         A baby comes to think that the world exists to meet his needs, and that he makes everything happen
    in it. He wakes up in the morning and summons the rest of the world to its tasks. He cries, and someone
    comes to attend to him. When he is hungry, people feed him , and when he is wet, people change him.
    Very often, we do not completely outgrow that childish view that our wishes cause things to happen.
    1. What is said about the two diseased elderly women?
    A. They lived out a natural life
    B. They died of exhaustion after the long plane ride
    C. They weren't used to the change in weather.
    D. They died due to lack of care by family members
    2. The author had to conduct the two women's funerals probably because ______.
    A. he wanted to comfort the two families
    B. he was an official from the community
    C. he had great pity for the deceased
    D. he was minister of the local church
    3. People feel guilty for the deaths of their loved ones because _____.
    A. they couldn't find a better way to express their sorrow
    B. they believe that they were responsible
    C. they had neglected the natural course of events
    D. they didn't know things often turn in the opposite direction
    4. According to the passage, the underlined part in paragraph 4 probably means that_____.
    A. everything in the world is predetermined
    B. the world can be interpreted in different ways
    C. there is an explanation for everything in the world
    D. we have to be sensible in order to understand the world
    5. What's the idea of the passage?
    A. Life and death is an unsolved mystery.
    B. Every story should have a happy ending.
    C. Never feel guilty all the time because not every disaster is our fault.
    D. In general, the survivors will feel guilty about the people who passed away

         Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging, unless you learn how to deal with it. 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 people 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 ______________.
         For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person's health than
    expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain release the same hormones(荷尔蒙). They
    speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or sugar into the blood, etc. in general the person feels excited
    and ready to act.
         Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who express anger violently may be 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 is 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.
    If it is, they say, "Do not express your anger while angry. Wait until your anger has cooled
    down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably."
         Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you
    angry. They said that laughter is much healthier than anger.
