American cities.Because that is where it started：in the second half of the 19th century!Welcome to a new Era of Kitchen Interior Design Back then，a Generation of successful American Entrepreneurs dreamt of a new style of Architecture to express their personal wealth.This dream was realized by young architects such as Daniel Burnham and Stanford White.They all had studied at the Ecole des BeauxArts in Paris.And they created a new style for Architecture and Interior Design，named after the famous French Art Institute：BeauxArts.SieMatic BeauxArts Breaks and Creates In fact it was not a new style at all，but a composition of styles from different periods and cultures.Many world-famous structures such as the Chicago Art Institute and the Statue of Liberty account for it.But what does that have to do with your kitchen？Just as much as you want it to.Because in the same way that the anticonventional architects back then took the freedom to combine elements from different historical eras，today，you too can break the conventional rules of style and create something new：your own personal composition of your kitchen.For that，SieMatic BeauxArts offers unique opportunities：A broad range of seemingly conflicting features that you combine to a harmonious design of your own.You can choose from menu of various forms，appealing colors，and precious materials，to create an environment that is much more than just a kitchen：a reflection of your personality.56Why did the BeauxArts style attract American entrepreneurs?AIt helped display their money status.BIt was created by famous architects.CIt was named after a famous institute.DIt represented the 19th century urban culture.57What is unique of SieMatic BeauxArts?AIts designs are anticonventional.BIts designs come from famous structures.CIts customers can enjoy their own composition.DIts customers can choose from various new styles.B However wealthy we may be，we can never find enough hours in the day to do everything we want.Economics deals with this problem through the concept of opportunity cost，which simply refers to whether someones time or money could be better spent on something else.Every hour of our time has a value.For every hour we work at one job we could quite easily be doing another，or be sleeping or watching a film.Each of these options has a different opportunity costnamely，what they cost us in missed opportunities.Say you intend to watch a football match but the tickets are expensive and it will take you a couple of hours to get to and from the stadium.Why not，you might reason，watch the game from home and use the leftover money and time to have dinner with friends？Thisthe alternative use of your cash and timeis the opportunity cost.For economists，every decision is made by knowledge of what one must forgoin terms of money and enjoymentin order to take it up.By knowing precisely what you are receiving and what you are missing out on，you ought to be able to make betterinformed，more reasonable decisions.Consider that most famous economic rule of all：theres no such thing as a free lunch.Even if someone offers to take you out to lunch for free，the time you will spend in the restaurant still costs you something in terms of forgone opportunities.Some people find the idea of opportunity cost extremely discouraging：imagine spending your entire life calculating whether your time would be better spent elsewhere doing something more profitable or enjoyable.Yet，in a sense its human nature to do precisely thatwe assess the advantages and disadvantages of decisions all the time.In the business world，a popular phrase is“value for money.”People want their cash to go as far as possible.However，another is fast obtaining an advantage：“value for time.”The biggest restriction on our resources is the number of hours we can devote to something，so we look to maximize the return we get on our investment of time.By reading this passage you are giving over a bit of your time which could be spent doing other activities，such as sleeping and eating.In return，however，this passage will help you to think like an economist，closely considering the opportunity cost of each of your decisions.58According to the passage，the concept of“opportunity cost”is applied to _.Amaking more money Btaking more opportunities Creducing missed opportunities Dweighing the choice of opportunities 59The“leftover.time”in Paragraph 3 probably refers to the time _.Aspared for watching the match at home Btaken to have dinner with friends Cspent on the way to and from the match Dsaved from not going to watch the match 60What are forgone opportunities?AOpportunities you forget in decisionmaking.BOpportunities you give up for better ones.COpportunities you miss accidentally.DOpportunities you make up for.C Most damagingly，anger weakens a persons ability to think clearly and keep control over his behaviour.The angry person loses objectivity in evaluating the emotional significance of the person or situation that arouses his anger.Not everyone experiences anger in the same way；what angers one person may amuse another.The specific expression of anger also differs from person to person based on biological and cultural forces.In contemporary culture，physical expressions of anger are generally considered too socially harmful to be tolerated.We no longer regard duels(决斗)as an appropriate expression of anger resulting from one persons awareness of insulting behaviour on the part of another.Anger can be identified in the brain，where the electrical activity changes.Under most conditions EEG(脑电图)measures of electrical activity show balanced activity between the right and left prefrontal(额 叶 前 部)areas.Behaviourally this corresponds to the general evenhanded disposition(意向)that most of us possess most of the time.But when we are angry the EEG of the right and left prefrontal areas arent balanced and，as a result of this，were likely to react.And our behavioural response to anger is different from our response to other emotions，whether positive or negative.Most positive emotions are associated with approach behaviour：we move closer to people we like.Most negative emotions，in contrast，are associated with avoidance behaviour：we move away from people and things that we dislike or that make us anxious.But anger is an exception to this pattern.The angrier we are，the more likely we are to move towards the object of our anger.This corresponds to what psychologists refer to as offensive anger：the angry person moves closer in order to influence and control the person or situation causing his anger.This approachandconfront behaviour is accompanied by a leftward prefrontal asymmetry(不对称)of EEG activity.Interestingly，this asymmetry lessens if the angry person can experience empathy(同感)towards the individual who is bringing forth the angry response.In defensive anger，in contrast，the EEG asymmetry is directed to the right and the angry person feels helpless in the face of the angerinspiring situation.61The“duels”example in Paragraph 2 proves that the expression of anger _.Ausually has a biological basis Bvaries among people Cis socially and culturally shaped Dinfluences ones thinking and evaluation 62What changes can be found in an angry brain?ABalanced electrical activity can be spotted.BUnbalanced patterns are found in prefrontal areas.CElectrical activity corresponds to ones behaviour.DElectrical activity agrees with ones disposition.63Which of the following is typical of offensive anger?AApproaching the source of anger.BTrying to control what is disliked.CMoving away from what is disliked.DFeeling helpless in the face of anger.64What is the key message of the last paragraph?AHow anger differs from other emotions.BHow anger relates to other emotions.CBehavioural responses to anger.DBehavioural patterns of anger.D August 1990，Boston Dear Maya Shaoming，To me，June 6,1990 is a special day.My longawaited dream came true the minute your father cried，“A girl！”You are more than just a second child，more than just a girl to match our boy.You，little daughter，are the link to our female line，the legacy of another womans pain and sacrifice 31 years ago.Let me tell you about your Chinese grandmother.Somewhere in Hong Kong，in the late fifties，a young waitress found herself pregnant(怀孕)by a cook，probably a coworker at her restaurant.She carried the baby to term，suffered to give it birth，and kept the little girl for the first three months of her life.I like to think that my motheryour grandmotherloved me and fought to raise me on her own，but that the daily struggle was too hard.Worn down by the demands of the new baby and perhaps the constant threat of starvation，she
