18、ave a more difficult time staying cool than thin people. Researchers also note that cool liquids cool us faster than warm liquids, because cold liquids take up more heat inside the body and carry it away faster.

45、n a man or animal views something as either bad or good. When a person feels like running away from something he thinks will hurt him, we call this emotion fear. If the person wants to remove the danger by attacking it, we call the emotion anger. The emotions of joy and love are aroused when we thin

46、k something can help us. An emotion does not have to be created by something in the outside world. It can be created by a person“s thoughts. Everyone has emotions.

47、rite. A growing child not only learns his emotions but learns how to act in certain situations because of an emotion.

48、eals to a person. Negative emotions make a person unhappy or dissatisfied. They include anger, fear, despair, sadness and disgust. In growing up, a person learns to cope with the negative emotions in order to be happy. Emotions may be weak or strong. Some strong emotions are so unpleasant that a per

49、son will try any means to escape from them. In order to feel happy, the person may choose unusual ways to avoid the emotion. Strong emotions can make it hard to think and to solve problems.

The worry drains valuable mental energy he needs for the examination.（分数：15.00）(1).We lea
