happier with a(n)8 network of friends andfamily because this improved our chances of survival.But closely socializing groups are also breeding grounds forrespiratory(呼 吸 的)9 such as flu and colds,so we would have needed to increase the activity of the genesthat fight these diseases.For those who were 10 from society,however,infectious disease was less of a problem,and genes thathelp recover from

swimming pool that Jill Craven remembers best,as she felt her teachers handon her head,guiding her underwater.You know how time slows?Going under.Watching.”she says.This was in Palmerston North,when she was five.While her three older siblings could swim half a mile or more,she would do anything to avoid swimming lessons.In her 20s,she moved to London to pursue a career in journalism.She insisted she had never feared for her career,but she still had this lifelong fear of being underwater.However,when she retired,Craven was diagnosed with breast cancer,and was advised to swim as part of herrecovery.Still finding the fear undefeatable,she took up water jogging instead-like treading water(踩 水),butmoving-with a floatation aid around her middle.She could get her feet of the bottom of the pool for a quick doggypaddle,but anything more was beyond her.One day at the pool,she saw a group of children having a lesson.It was an indoor pool,nice and warm,and thechildren were five or six.I just thought,ifs time to do this,“she says.Who knows what I looked like.An eggbeater,she continues.did five strokes,or six.I was so proud of myself,.Then a lifeguard encouraged her tocontinue and told her how to breathe.A friend gave her goggles.Her niece Justine walked beside the pool clapping,and Craven felt as if she had won a gold medal.Justine bought Craven lessons for her 69th birthday.Before long,Craven had swum a length with her face in the water.When her instructor told her to sit on the bottom of the pool,Craven felt like going back to being a five-year-old.She hung on to the stairs as

accurately be expressed numerically and have more predictive powerfor how we behave than formal studies of socioeconomic factors like household income and employment status.The study co-author Andrew Oswald,a professor of economics and behavioral science gathered informationfrom nearly 700,000 people,who were asked annually over a three-decade period how they felt on a numerical scaleabout their job,spouse,health and home.Using the data collected,researchers constructed statistical models to showhow people felt and the actions they took as a result of their reported feelings.The study found that ratings of lifesatisfaction had a direct linear(线 性 的)relationship to actions people subsequently take.Participants who rated theirjob satisfaction as a 2 out of 7 had a 25%probability of quitting their job.Those who rated a 6 out of 7 had only a 10percent probability of quitting.The same was true across other measures like marriage,health and housing.Previous research has also shown data about feelings predict human outcomes,but not in such a linear fashion;the degree of satisfaction served as a good predictor of future actions.Additionally,economists have previously beencritical of feelings data because they considered them unscientific and unreliable.But this study shows socioeconomicfactors have a lesser probability of predicting human behavior than data on feelings.Though the study shows numbers can quantify feelings,researchers are still a bit confused as to why estimatesof seemingly subjective feelings can be such good predictors of future actions.According to Oswald,a number offactors could be at play.Humans are very experienced in comparative thinking and are able to scale their own lifesatisfaction against that of their neighbors.Were also accustomed to using measuring devices for other aspects oflife like temperature,distance and weight,so it shouldnt be too surprising that were able to measure our feelings ina similarly accurate way.Another study co-author Caspar Kaiser says that it may also be because we communicateour feelings and do it in a scaled fashion every day.This could be why it comes out in the data more accurately thanin objective markers.Ori Heffetz,an economics professor who was not involved in the study,says that this research shows feelingsdata shouldnt be underestimated even if theyre more difficult to study.Scientists who ignore this do so at their ownrisk,he says.Looking ahead,Kaiser hopes this same data can be studied in lower-income countries so that it can be applieduniversally to places with varied levels of economic development.But more than anything else hes interested instudying why feelings work so well.27.Paragraph 2 is mainly a b o u t.A.research process and findingsB.research topic and significanceC.research subjects and purposeD.research data collection and analysis28.What can we know about the study?A.It also applies to people from lower-income countries.B.It challenges the opinion that feelings data are unreliable.C.It explains why ratings of feelings can foresee future actions.D.It first shows data about feelings can predict human behavior29.What is Oris attitude towards the study?A.Neutral.B.Skeptical.C.Supportive.D.Cautious.30.Which would be the best title for the passage?A.How You Rate Your Life Predicts Your Future BehaviorB.Feelings Forecast Actions Better than Economic FactorsC.Why Your Feelings Affect Your Future ActionsD.Ranking Every Aspect of Your Life CountsDPeople who think of themselves as tough-minded and realistic tend to take it for granted that human nature isselfish and that life is a struggle in which only the fittest may survive.According to this philosophy,the basic law bywhich people must live,is the law of the jungle.The“fittest“are those who can bring to the struggle superior force,superior cunning and superior ruthlessness.But we are entitled to ask whether the ruthlessness of the tiger,the cunning of the fox and the obedience to thelaw of the jungle are,in their human applications,actually evidence of human fitness to survive.If human beings areto pick up pointers on behavior from the lower animals,are there not animals other than beasts of prey from whichwe might learn lessons in survival?We might,for example,look to the rabbit or the deer and define fitness to survive as superior speed in runningaway from our enemies.We might point to the earthworm or the mole and attribute their fitness to survive to theability to keep out of sight and out of the way.If we simply look to animals in order to define what we mean by“fitness to survive,there is no limit to the subhuman systems of behavior that we can think up.We may emulate anyanimal because they have all obviously survived in one way or another.We are still entitled to ask,however,if humansurvival does not revolve around a different kind of fitness from that of the lower animals.Biologists distinguish between two kinds of struggle for survival.First,there is the interspecific struggle,warfarebetween different species of animals.Second,there is the intraspecific struggle,warfare among members of a singlespecies.A great deal of evidence in modern biology indicates that those species that have developed elaborate meansof intraspecific competition often make themselves unfit for interspecific competition,and that strength andfierceness in fighting and killing other animals,whether in interspecific or intraspecific competition,have never beenenough in themselves to guarantee the survival of a species.If we are going to talk about human survival,one of the first things to do,even if we grant that people must fightto live,is to distinguish between those qualities that are useful in fighting the environment and oth
