44、ouremotions take over”.Emotional reactions sometimes produce consequences orthoughts which people may later regret or disagree with;but during anemotional state,they could not control their actions.Thus,it is generallybelieved that one of the most distinctive facts about human beings is acontradicti

45、on between emotion and reason.However,recent empirical studies do not suggest there is a cleardistinction between reason and emotion.Indeed,anger or fear can oftenbe thought of as an instinctive response to observed fact.The human mindpossesses many possible reactions to the external world.Those rea
