(32)Why do we cry? Can you imagine life without tears?
Not only do tears keep your eyes lubricated, they also contain a substance that kills certain bacteria so they can’t infect your eyes. Give up your tears, and you’ll lose this on-the-spot defense.
Nor would you want to give up the flood of extra tears you produce when you get something physical or chemical in your eyes. Tears are very good at washing this irritating Stuff out.
Another thing you couldn’t do without your tears is cry—from joy, anger, or sadness.
(35)Humans are the only animals that produce tears in response to emotions. And most people say a go0d cry makes them feel better.
(33)Many scientists, therefore, believe that crying somehow helps us cope with emotional situations. Tear researcher, William Frey, is trying to figure out how it happens.
One possibility, he says, is that tears discharge certain chemicals from your body, which build up during stress. "When people talk about ’crying it out’, I think that might actually be what they are doing," he says.
If Frey is right, what do you think will happen to people who restrain their tears? (34)Boys, for example, cry only about a quarter as often as girls once they reach their teenage years. And we all cry a lot less now than we did as babies.
Could it possibly be that we face less stress? Maybe we’ve found other ways to deal with it. Or maybe we just feel embarrassed.
选项
A、Only one out of four girls cries less often than boys.
B、Of four boys, only one cries very often.
C、Girls cry four times as often as boys.
D、Only one out of four babies doesn’t cry often.
答案
C
解析
语意理解题 。文章指出Boys, for example, cry only about a quarter as often as girls once they reach their teenage years,即男孩哭泣的次数只有女孩的四分之一,换而言之,女孩哭泣的次数是男孩的四倍,故本题选择C项。
