16、amous saying from a writer regarded as one of the fathers of environmentalism. The frequency with which it is borrowed mirrors a heated debate on environmental protection: whether to place wilderness at the heart of what is to be preserved. As John Sauven of Greenpeace UK points out, there is a stro
17、ng appeal in images of the wild, the untouched; more than anything else, they speak of the nature that many people value most dearly. The urge to leave the subject of such images untouched is strong, and the danger exploitation(开发 ) brings to such landscapes(景观 ) is real. Some of these wildernesses
18、also perform functions that humans needthe rainforests, for example, store carbon in vast quantities. To Mr.Sauven, these ”ecosystem services” far outweigh the gains from exploitation. Lee Lane, a visiting fellow at the Hudson Institute, takes the opposing view. He acknowledges that wildernesses do
19、provide useful services, such as water conservation. But that is not, he argues, a reason to avoid all human presence, or indeed commercial and industrial exploitation. There are ever more people on the Earth, and they reasonably and rightfully want to have better lives, rather than merely struggle
20、for survival. While the ways of using resources have improved, there is still a growing need for raw materials, and some wildernesses contain them in abundance. If they can be tapped without reducing the services those wildernesses provide, the argument goes, there is no further reason not to do so.
21、 Being untouched is not, in itself, a characteristic worth valuing above all others. I look forwards to seeing these views taken further, and to their being challenged by the other participants. One challenge that suggests itself to me is that both cases need to take on the question of spiritual val
22、ue a little more directly. And there is a practical question as to whether wildernesses can be exploited without harm. This is a topic that calls for not only free expression of feelings, but also the guidance of reason. What position wilderness should enjoy in the preservation of the world obviousl
23、y deserves much more serious thinking. 【小题 1】 John Sauven holds that_. A many people value nature too much B exploitation of wildernesses is harmful C wildernesses provide humans with necessities D the urge to develop the ecosystem services is strong 【小题 2】 What is the main idea of Para. 3 A The exp

28、w review based on a research shows that acute stress affects the way the brain considers the advantages and disadvantages, causing it to focus on pleasure and ignore the possible negative (负面的 ) consequences of a decision. The research suggests that stress may change the way people make choices in p
29、redictable ways. “Stress affects how people learn,” says Professor Mara Mather. “People learn better about positive than negative outcomes under stress.” For example, two recent studies looked at how people learned to connect images(影像 ) with either rewards or punishments. In one experiment, some of
30、 the participants were first stressed by having to give a speech and do difficult math problems in front of an audience; in the other, some were stressed by having to keep their hands in ice water. In both cases, the stressed participants remembered the rewarded material more accurately and the puni
31、shed material less accurately than those who hadnt gone through the stress. This phenomenon is likely not surprising to anyone who has tried to resist eating cookies or smoking a cigarette while under stress at those moments, only the pleasure associated with such activities comes to mind. But the f
32、indings further suggest that stress may bring about a double effect. Not only are rewarding experiences remembered better, but negative consequences are also easily recalled. The research also found that stress appears to affect decision-making differently in men and women. While both men and women
33、tend to focus on rewards and less on consequences under stress, their responses to risk turn out to be different. Men who had been stressed by the cold-water task tended to take more risks in the experiment while women responded in the opposite way. In stressful situations in which risk-taking can p
34、ay off big, men may tend to do better, when caution weighs more, however, women will win. This tendency to slow down and become more cautious when decisions are risky might also help explain why women are less likely to become addicted than men: they may more often avoid making the risky choices tha
35、t eventually harden into addiction. 【小题 1】 We can learn from the passage that people under pressure tend to _. A keep rewards better in their memory B recall consequences more effortlessly C make risky decisions more frequently D learn a subject more effectively 【小题 2】 According to the research, str
36、ess affects people most probably in their _. A ways of making choices B preference for pleasure C tolerance of punishments D responses to suggestions 【小题 3】 The research has proved that in a stressful situation, _. A women find it easier to fall into certain habits B men have a greater tendency to s
37、low down C women focus more on outcomes D men are more likely to take risks 答案： 【小题 1】 A 【小题 2】 A 【小题 3】 D 【小题 1】 A 细节题。根据第一段中， acute stress affects the way the brain considers the advantages and disadvantages, causing it to focus on pleasure and ignore the possible negative consequences of a decisi

40、aving no choice, I slowly raised the report I had slaved over, hoping to hide myself. “What could be causing everyone to act this way ” Quickly, I flashed back to the day Miss Lancelot gave me the task.

As I searched the name of this fellow, it became evident that there were two people bearing the same name who looked completely dif
42、ferent! One invented hundreds of uses for peanuts, while the other led some sort of army across America. I stared at the screen, wondering which one my teacher meant. I called my grandfather for a golden piece of advice; flip (掷 ) a coin. Headsthe commander, and tailsthe peanuts guy. Ah! Tails, my r
43、eport would be about the great man who invented peanut butter, George Washington Carver. Weeks later, standing before this unfriendly mass, I was totally lost. Oh well, I lowered the paper and sat down at my desk, burning to find out what I had done wrong. As a classmate began his report, it all bec

How could I know that she meant that George Washington Obviously, my grade was awful. Heartbroken but fearless, I decided to turn this around. I talked to Miss Lancelot, but she
45、 insisted: No re-dos; no new grade. I felt that the punishment was not justified, and I believed I deserved a second chance. Consequently, I threw myself heartily into my work for the rest of the school year. Ten months later, that chance unfolded as I found myself sitting in the headmasters office
46、with my grandfather, now having an entirely different conversation. I smiled and flashed back to the embarrassing moment at the beginning of the year as the headmaster informed me of my option to skip the sixth grade.
