1. Passage SeventeenNo one knows how man learned to make words.Perhaps he began by making sounds like those made by animals.Perhaps he grunted like a pig when he lifted something heavy.Perhaps he made sounds like those he heard all round him——water splashing, bees humming, a stone falling to the ground.Somehow, he learned to make words.As the centuries went by, he made more and more new words.This is what we mean by language.People living in different countries made different kinds of words.Today there are about fifteen hundred different languages in the world.Each contains many thousands of words.A very large English dictionary, for example, contains four or five hundred thousand words.But we do not need all these.Only a few thousand words are used in everyday life.The words you know are called your vocabulary.You should try to make your vocabulary bigger.You’re supposed to read as many books as you can.There are plenty of books written in easy English for you to read.You will enjoy them.When you meet a new word, you should find it in your dictionary.Your dictionary is your most useful book.From this passage, we know that ().

40. Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.Recognizing when a friend or colleague feels sad, angry or surprised is key to getting along with others.But a new study suggests that being sensitive to people’s feelings may sometimes come with an extra dose of stress.This and other research challenge the prevailing view that emotional intelligence is uniformly beneficial to its bearer.In a study, Psychologist Myriam Bechtoldt of the Frankfurt School of Finance and Management in Germany asked 166 male university students a series of question to measure their emotional intelligence.For example, they showed the students photographs of people’s faces and ask them to what extent feelings such as happiness or disgust were being expressed.The students then had to give job talks in front of judges who displayed serious facial expressions.The scientists measured concentrations of stress hormones in the students’ saliva (唾液)before and after the talk.In students who were rated more emotionally intelligent, the stress measures increased more during the experiment and took longer to go back to baseline.The findings suggest that some people may be too emotionally clever for their own good, says Bechtoldt.“Sometimes you can be so good at something that it causes trouble,” she notes.Indeed, the study adds to previous research hinting at a dark side of emotional intelligence.A study published in 2002 in Personality and Individual Differences suggested that emotionally perceptive people might be particularly influenced by feelings of depression and hopelessness.Furthermore, several studies have implied that emotional intelligence can be used to manipulate others for personal gains.
More research is needed to see how exactly the relation between emotional intelligence and stress would play out in women and in people of different ages and education levels.Nevertheless, emotional intelligence is a useful skill to have, as long as you learn to also properly cope with emotions—both others’ and your own, says Bechtoldt.For example, some sensitive individuals may assume responsibility for other people’s sadness or anger, which ultimately stresses them out.Remember, as Bechtoldt says, “you are not responsible for how other people feel.”What does the author suggest sensitive individuals do?
