49、elings under control. Instead, a mix of feelings like anxiety and logical(合逻辑的) thinking leads to sound decision-making. Its true that there is plenty of research showing that higher levels of anxiety can make us more likely to avoid risks in our decision-making. There is also evidence that anxiety

50、can increase the attention you pay to relevant information. Recent studies have shown that people who are anxious about their relationship (for example, they fear to be abandoned) tend to be better at recognising people who tell lies and are more likely to raise the alarm when danger is present. In

51、the real world though, its worth realising that feeling anxious once in a while is extremely common. It communicates to others that you care, and whats more, its probably a sign that you are intelligent. At least two published studies have identified that people who score higher on measures of anxie

52、ty also tend to perform better on intelligence tests. This seems reasonable: if youre a thinker, you are sure to be always thinking about the future and imagine possible plots, including bad ones.

53、ont bury your head in the sand. Instead, act on your fears do the research as well as preparation, so rather than walking blindly into that which you fear, you meet the challenge in full readiness. When anxiety beats you, or casts a shadow over your life, this is a serious problem. No one is denying

54、 that. But like everyday anxiety of this kind that you feel before a presentation or interview, you neednt see it as your enemy. Anxiety is an important feeling, developed through evolution. As for people who are fairly anxious by nature, there is reason for cheer, too. Your nerves (神经紧张) are a sign

55、 of your watchfulness. Listen to them and act on them. Then you can turn your nervousness into your advantage. 【语篇概述】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了焦虑能够带来的一些意想不到的好处, 我们应该将焦虑变成自己的优势。28.

57、e? A. Anxious people are less sensitive to danger. B. Anxious people have difficulty discovering liars. C. Feeling anxious is more likely to put people at risk. D.

58、o score higher on measures of anxiety also tend to perform better on intelligence tests. (至少有两项已发表的研究表明, 在焦虑衡量中得分较高的人, 在智力测试中往往表现得更好。)可知, 偶尔感到焦虑是聪明的表现。30. How should we deal with anxiety in the authors opinion? A. Regard it as our enemy. B. Take action to control it. C. Avoid being defeated by it. D

59、. Treat it as a minor feeling. 【解析】选C。推理判断题。根据第四段中的The important thing, if you are a worrywart, is not to let your fear destroy your dreams. And dont bury your head in the sand.
