I rarely spoke with real patients in a hospital setting. Then I started visiting the neurology ward (病房) at Dr. Sardjito Hospital. I was gathering data for my research paper about strokes.One rainy evening last October, I was in the neurology ward desperately “hunting” for the final three patients I needed to complete my study. The records showed that there was a 43- year-old stroke patient, whom I will call Ms A, in the ward. After I finished the questionnaire, I prepared to leave so I could go through more medical records.“Doctor, do you think I can get back my normal life?” Ms A asked suddenly. Deep in my heart, I thought, “I wish I was your doctor so I could answer you properly.”I replied that while I didn’t know much about her case, I could tell her what I had learned about the recovery of stroke patients. Depending on the severity of the stroke, quite a number recovered. I was unwilling to go into too much detail as I was only a medical student.Before I could stand up, Ms A said, “My husband died a year ago and I’m the sole breadwinner of my family. We are not ri ch and my pay as a cleaner is exactly enough for me and my three kids.”I didn’t know what to say. Without realizing it, I had begun holding Ms A’s hand. Since I didn’t have anything to say, I just sat quietly while she talked. That’s when it occurred to m e that she was not expecting any reply from me. She just wanted me to listen.Ms A taught me one of the most important lessons a doctor can learn. Sometimes patients do not need expensive medicine or state of the art technology. They just need someone with the patience and willingness to lend an ear and spare a little of their time.24. Why did the writer go to Dr. Sardjito Hospital?A. To prepare for her research paper.B.

What lesson did the writer learn from Ms A?A. Doctors lend patients money willingly.B. Modern technology fails to save a patient.C. Patients can’t afford expensive medicine.D. Sometimes patients need to be listened to.CHere are Dr Hartmann’s top tips for how to control emotions successfully—yes, you can learn to control your e motions and master your emotions, it’s not even difficult—you just need to know how.The first step to control anything at all is not to be afraid of it. Understand that emotions are simply feedback devices that let you know how your energy system is doing. Emotions can hurt. Once you know emotions for what they are, simple feedback devices, you can stop being afraid of your emotions and take a totally different way to control them.Instead of ignoring these emotions in the body, start to learn when and how it happens that you start to feel tight, hot, trembling and so on. Pay attention to the signals from your body that are the bad emotions. Find out where your worst places are and where you feel most of your emotions—for some people it’s in the head, oth ers feel most of their emotions in their throat, heart, chest or stomach.The stronger the energy body is, the more it can keep away from triggers (诱因) that cause painful emotions. Make sure you eat well, sleep well and exercise; but the energy body also needs other energy forms to remain healthy. Attention energy is the most powerful. Get people to pay attention to you. Besides, the unconditional attention from animals and young children, for example, can be extremely healing. To form your energy immune (免疫的) system, why not start now?The next time you have an emotion you want to control, sit down, take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Where do I feel this emotion in my body?” Pay attention and don’t give up too easily. Even if it feels at first that the e motion is “everywhere” you can ask yourself, “Ok, so it’s everywhere—but where is it worst of all? Where is the center?”28. If a person knows what emotions are, he can .A. become an expertB. treat his diseaseC. help others live a better lifeD. control his emotions successfully29. What suggestion does the author disagree with?A. Learning when and how emotions happen.B. Taking care of the signals from your body.C. Ignoring these emotions in the body.D. Finding out where your worst places are and where you feel most of your emotions.30. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?A. Just eat well and sleep well.B. Build up the emotional immune system.C. Get more people to pay attention.D. Play more with kids and animals.31. In Paragraph 5, the author warns the readers .A. to sit downB. to breathe deeplyC. never to give up earlyD. to ask themselves at timesDWhen faced with adversity (逆境)，humans make sense of their experiences through storytelling. Scholars also have found that women, in particular, express their emotions through “narrative sense-making” and relate to and support each other by telling stories in everyday contexts. This is especially true when it comes to mothers and daughters. Now, a recent study from the University of Missouri has found that daughters “re-author” stories about adversity over time, often increasing the positivity of those stories through narrative. Scientists believe these changes in storytelling can improve mother and daughter interpersonal relationships and well-being.“The goal of the research was to understand how communication can change the way daughters make sense of the ir experiences,” said Haley Horstman, a narrative Scholar and assistant professor of interpersonal and family communication in the College of Arts and Science at University of Missouri. “When dealing with difficult situations from death to problems in school, how a daughter communicates with her mother will impact her overall well-being. We wanted to learn how aspects of interpersonal communication such as perspective-taking, coherence and taking turns impact how we make sense of adversity.”In the study, Horstman had 62 daughters write out a story of a difficulty they were experiencing and complete a well-being survey. The daughters then met with their mothers to tell their stories. Two days later, the daughters completed another written survey with the story-writing prompt (提示) and measures of well-being. In analyzing the results, Horstman found that the stories between mothers and daughters changed over time and with respect to qualities of the mother-daughter conversation. Researchers found that by taking turns and sharing each other’s perspectives during their conversation, daughters tended to write their stories more positively over time.“The result of this study is that our narratives matter,” said Horstman. “Interpersonal communication has the power to change the way we make sense of our lives. If mothers can foster (促进) warmth and affection in their conversations, and if daughters listen to their mother’s perspective, the conversations can help daughters work through negative emotions associated with stress.”Horstman a nd her colleagues’ study, “Unfolding narrative meaning over time: The contributions of mother-daughter conversations of difficulty on daughter narrative sense- making and well-being,” was published in Communication Monographs. The paper was presented on the Top Four Panel of the Interpersonal Communication Division at the National Communication Association Convention in November 2014.32. Which of the following people are more willing to tell their stories when facing adversity?A. Young boys.B. School teachers.C. Women.D. Little kids.33. We can infer that daughters’ storytelling are .A. promisingB. positiveC. passiveD. touching34. What do Haley Horstman’s words in Paragraph 2 tell us?A. The goal of the research was to know the relationship between mothers and daughters.B. The communications with mothers are significant for daughters’ future.C. Interpersonal communication can change people’s adversity.D. Interpersonal communication like coherence and takin g turns isn’t related to adversity.35. What does Haley Horstman agree with according to the study?A. Some daughters didn’t complete a well-being survey.B. Daughters’ words impacted mothers when dealing with difficulty.C. Daughters shared perspectives with mothers during their conversation.D. Mothers should give warmth and affection to daughters absolutely.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
