The Mind-Body Connections
Norman Cousins was a famous American magazine editor. In 1964,he returned from an overseas trip
and then became very ill.In the hospital,he had a terrible pain and couldn't move his body.Doctors told
him he had a serious disease called ankylosing spondylitis（强直性脊柱炎）and said he had only 1 chance in
500 of surviving. They gave him powerful drugs,but his condition only got worse.
Cousins had read about a theory that negative emotions can harm your health.He believed that positive
emotions were good for one's health,and he decided to try an experiment.He would fill his days with good
feelings and laughter and see if that might improve his condition.
He left the hospital and moved into a hotel room.There,he got a large supply of funny TV programs and
copies of old Marx Brothers movies and cartoons.He also hired a nurse to read funny stories to him.His plan
was to spend the whole day laughing and thinking about happy things.On his first night in the hotel,Cousins
found that laughing at the movies helped his body produce chemicals that reduced pain.For the first time in
weeks,he could sleep comfortably for a few hours.Every time the pain came back,he watched another
funny movie and laughed until he felt better.
Over time,Cousins was able to measure changes in his body with blood tests.He found that the harmful
chemicals in his body decreased at least 5 percent every time he watched a funny movie.After a short time,
he was able to stop taking all of his medications.Finally his condition improved so much that he could go
back to work.
Cousins later wrote a book about how laughter and happiness helped him to survive a deadly illness.
Many people didn't believe his story and said that his doctors were wrong about his disease.But since then,
research has found that emotions do have a strong effect on physical health,and experiments found that
laughter can help to reduce pain.Scientists today are working to understand the ways that our minds affect
our bodies.Cousins spent a lot of time laughing every day.
A:Right
B:Wrong
C:Not mentioned答案：A解析：由文章第一段第二句“In 1 964 , he returned from an overseas trip and then became very ill.”可知，Norman Cousins是在一次海外旅行归来之后才生病的，故选B。
由文章第一段倒数第二句中“Doctors told him…he had only 1 chance in 500 of survi-ving.”可知，医生告诉Norman Cousins，他只有1/500的可能生还，这也就意味着他极有可能会 死，故选A。
由文章第一段的最后一句话“They gave him powerful drugs , but his condition only got worse.”可知，医生开的药只让他的情况变得更加糟糕，通过下文的叙述可知，Norman Cousins 的病是经愉悦心情的影响而好转的，故选B。
由文章的第二、三段可知，Norman Cousins之所以看电影是因为他在读过一个消极情绪 影响健康的理论，他决定用切身的实践来验证愉悦的心情能改善健康状况。他看电影是让自 己发笑，保持好心情。
由文章第三段的内容可知，Norman Cousins的计划是花上一整天的时间大笑，想象愉快 的事情；他找很多有趣的电视节目和许多喜剧电影和卡通作品，甚至还请了一位护士给他读滑 稽故事。因此他一天中大部分时间在笑声中度过，故选A。
文中仅仅提及了Norman Cousins用电影和滑稽故事来使自己保持心情愉悦，并未提及 哪一种更为有效，故选C。
由文章最后一段第二句“Many people didn ' t believe his story and said that...”可知，许多 人都不相信Norman Cousins在自己所著的书中提到的经历，故选B。 -

2 Even decades later,Spielberg says he has vivid memories of his earliest years,which are the origins of some of his most successful films.He believes that E.T.is the result of the difficult years leading up to his parent ' 5 1966 divorce.He commented,"It is really about a young boy who was in search of some stability in his life."Close Encounters of the Third Kind was inspired by times when the four-year-old Steven and his father would search the skies for meteors（流星）.His mother remembers,"He was scared of just about everything.When trees brushed against the house,he would jump into my bad.And that'5 just the kind of scary stuff he would put in films like Poltergeist."
3 Spielberg was 1 1 when he first got his hands on his dad'5 movie camera and began shooting short flicks（电影）about flying saucers（飞碟）and World War II battles.These homemade movies gave him a way to escape his fears.From the very beginning,he had a creative imagination.With his talent for scary storytelling, he could terrify his three younger sisters.It also made it easier for him to make friendships.On Boy Scout camping trips,when night fell,young Steven became the center of attention."Steven would start telling his ghost stories,"says Richard Y.Hoffman.Jr.,leader of Troop 294,"and everyone would suddenly get quiet so hat they could all hear."

The Mind-Body Connections
Norman Cousins was a famous American magazine editor. In 1964,he returned from an overseas trip
and then became very ill.In the hospital,he had a terrible pain and couldn't move his body.Doctors told
him he had a serious disease called ankylosing spondylitis（强直性脊柱炎）and said he had only 1 chance in
500 of surviving. They gave him powerful drugs,but his condition only got worse.
Cousins had read about a theory that negative emotions can harm your health.He believed that positive
emotions were good for one's health,and he decided to try an experiment.He would fill his days with good
feelings and laughter and see if that might improve his condition.
He left the hospital and moved into a hotel room.There,he got a large supply of funny TV programs and
copies of old Marx Brothers movies and cartoons.He also hired a nurse to read funny stories to him.His plan
was to spend the whole day laughing and thinking about happy things.On his first night in the hotel,Cousins
found that laughing at the movies helped his body produce chemicals that reduced pain.For the first time in
weeks,he could sleep comfortably for a few hours.Every time the pain came back,he watched another
funny movie and laughed until he felt better.
Over time,Cousins was able to measure changes in his body with blood tests.He found that the harmful
chemicals in his body decreased at least 5 percent every time he watched a funny movie.After a short time,
he was able to stop taking all of his medications.Finally his condition improved so much that he could go
back to work.
Cousins later wrote a book about how laughter and happiness helped him to survive a deadly illness.
Many people didn't believe his story and said that his doctors were wrong about his disease.But since then,
research has found that emotions do have a strong effect on physical health,and experiments found that
laughter can help to reduce pain.Scientists today are working to understand the ways that our minds affect
our bodies.Cousins started watching movies because he was bored.
A:Right
B:Wrong
C:Not mentioned答案：B解析：由文章第一段第二句“In 1 964 , he returned from an overseas trip and then became very ill.”可知，Norman Cousins是在一次海外旅行归来之后才生病的，故选B。
由文章第一段倒数第二句中“Doctors told him…he had only 1 chance in 500 of survi-ving.”可知，医生告诉Norman Cousins，他只有1/500的可能生还，这也就意味着他极有可能会 死，故选A。
由文章第一段的最后一句话“They gave him powerful drugs , but his condition only got worse.”可知，医生开的药只让他的情况变得更加糟糕，通过下文的叙述可知，Norman Cousins 的病是经愉悦心情的影响而好转的，故选B。
由文章的第二、三段可知，Norman Cousins之所以看电影是因为他在读过一个消极情绪 影响健康的理论，他决定用切身的实践来验证愉悦的心情能改善健康状况。他看电影是让自 己发笑，保持好心情。
由文章第三段的内容可知，Norman Cousins的计划是花上一整天的时间大笑，想象愉快 的事情；他找很多有趣的电视节目和许多喜剧电影和卡通作品，甚至还请了一位护士给他读滑 稽故事。因此他一天中大部分时间在笑声中度过，故选A。
文中仅仅提及了Norman Cousins用电影和滑稽故事来使自己保持心情愉悦，并未提及 哪一种更为有效，故选C。
由文章最后一段第二句“Many people didn ' t believe his story and said that...”可知，许多 人都不相信Norman Cousins在自己所著的书中提到的经历，故选B。 -
