establishment is giving his new hire some instructions on(S2)running the place.He tells the timid man,“If you ever hear thatBig John is coming to town,(S3)drop everything and run for the hills!He s the biggest,nastiest(S4)outlaw who s ever lived!”A few weeks pass(S5)uneventfully.But one afternoon,a local cowhandcomes running through town(S6)yelling,“Big John is coming!Run foryour(S7)1 Ives!”When the bartender leaves the bar to start running,he is knocked to theground by several townspeople rushing out of town.(S8)As he s pickinghimself up,he sees a large man,almost seven feet tall.He s muscular,and is growing as he approaches the bar.He steps up to the door,orders the poor barkeep inside,and demands,Iwant a beer NOW!”He strikes his heavy fist on the bar,splitting it in half.(S9)Thebartender nervously hands the big man a beer,hands shaking.He takes thebeer,bites the top of the bottle off,and downs the beer in one gulp.As the terrified bartender hides behind the bar,the big man gets up toleave,“Do you want another beer?”the bartender asks in a tremblingvoice.“Dang it,I don t have time!”the big man yells,(S10)“I got to getout of town!Don t you hear Big John is coming?”Task3:A View of HappinessScriptDr.Smith has proposed a reasonable,if perhaps somewhat oversimplifies,view of happiness.According to his theory,happiness might be describedas a state if balance.And when human or certain animals achieve thatbalance,they rend to remain in that condition in order to repeat the happyfeeling.To illustrate this,we may study two magnets.When their positive andnegative poles meet,they are comfortably joined,and they remain there.In other words,they have attained a balance or state of happiness.Ifon the other hand,one of the poles is reversed,and positive pole ispresses against positive pole,there is resistance,instability,imbalance a state of unhappiness.Animals with some degree of intelligence seem to find happiness inreinforcement.Once they have gained one or more of their goals such asfood,and water,they learn to repeat the actions that led to satisfactionof those goals.This repetition or reinforcement produces a state ofbalance or sense of happiness.According to this theory,only animals with a significant capacity tolearn should be able to experience happiness.But in truth learning cantake place through surprisingly simple short-term action such asscratching an itch,followed by pleasure,followed by more scratching,and so on.Thus learning can occur with almost no conscious thought.For human beings,blessed with the ability to reason,goals are not 1 imitedto the short-term satisfaction of needs.Indeed,there is a strong linkbetween happiness and the fulfillment of long-term goals.Even if humanstrive for goals that are more complex and longer-term than the animals?goals,once those goals are gained,happiness is reinforced.1.Why does the speaker mention,magnets”?2.According to the passage,what may animals do after they

I believe somedeserve special attention.Heredity certainly plays a role.The tendency to develop depression maybe inherited;there is evidence that this disorder may run in families.Physiology is another factor related to depression.There may be changesor imbalances in chemicals which transmit information in the brain calledneurotransmitters.Many modern antidepressant drugs attempt to increaselevels of certain neurotransmitters so as to increase brain communication.While the causal relationship is unclear;it is known that antidepressantmedications do reliever certain symptoms of depression.Researchers also study psychological factors.They include the complexdevelopment of one,s personality and how one has learned to cope withexternal environmental factors,such as stress.It is freeqently observedthat low self-esteem and self-defeating thinking are connected withdepression.While it is not clear which is the cause and which is the effect,it is known that sufferers who are able to make corrections to theirthinking patterns can show improved mood and self-esteem.Another factor causing depression is one s early experiences.Eventssuch as the death of a parent,the divorce of the parents,neglect,chronicillness,and severe physical abuse can also increase the likelihood ofdepression later in life.Some present experiences may also lead to depression.Job loss,financialdifficulties,long periods of unemployment,the loss of a spouse or otherfamily member,or other painful events may trigger depression.Long-termstress at home,work,or school can also be involved.It is worth nothing that those living with someone suffering fromdepression experience increased anxiety which adds to the possibilityof their also becoming depressed.Depression-causingFactorsProblem DescriptionSolutionHeredityIt is inherited and run infamilies.Physiologychanges or imbalances inchemicals calledAntidepressantdrugs

EmotionScriptEmotion is sometimes regarded as the opposite of reason;s is suggestedby phrase such as“appeal to emotions rather than reasonand don tlet your emotions take over,.Emotional reactions sometimes produceconsequences or thoughts which people may later regret or disagree with;but during an emotional state,they could not control their actions.Thus,it is generally believed that one of the most distinctive facts about humanbeings is a contradiction between emotion and reason.Howe ve r,re ce nt e mpirical studie s do not sug g e st the re is a cle ardistinction be twe e n re ason and
