Unit 4 Psychology in Our Daily LifeIs There a Doctor in the Body?1 When you go to the doctor, you like to come away with a prescription. It makes you feel better to know you will get some medicine. But the doctor knows that medicine is not always needed. Sometimes all a sick person needs is some reassurance that all will be well. In such cases the doctor may prescribe a placebo.2 A placebo is a sugar pill, a harmless shot, or an empty capsule. Even though they have no medicine in them, these things seem to make people well. The patient thinks it is medicine and begins to get better. How does this happen?3 The study of the placebo opens up new knowledge about the way the human body can heal itself. It is as if there was a doctor in each of us. The "doctor" will heal the body for us if we let it.4 But it is not yet known just how the placebo works to heal the body. Some people say it works because the human mind fools itself. These people say that if the mind is fooled into thinking it got medicine, then it will act as if it did, and the body will feel better.5 Other people say this is not so. They say that the placebo makes the wish to get better become reality. The placebo will not work if the patient knows it is a placebo. This shows that the body is not fooled by it. It seems that if patients think they have been given medicine, they will have hope. They feel that they are getting some help. This gives them a stronger will to get better, and that is what helps to heal them.6 Placebos do not always work. The success of this treatment seems to rest a lot with the relationship between the patient and the doctor. If the patient has a lot of trust in the doctor and if the doctor really wants to help the patient, then the placebo is more likely to work. So in a way, the doctor is the most powerful placebo of all.7 An example of the doctor's role in making the placebo work can be seen in this study. Some patients with bleeding ulcers were put in two groups. The first group were told by a doctor that they had been given a new drug which, it was hoped, would give them some relief. The second group were told by a nurse that they had been given a newdrug but that not much was known about how it would work. As a result, 70 percent of the people in the first group got much better. Only 25 percent of the people in the second group got better. And both groups had in fact been given the same thing a placebo.8 The placebo has been found to work with a lot of different cases. It helps such things as seasickness, coughs, colds, and even pain after an operation. And there was an experiment done to see if a placebo could help old people stay healthy and live longer.9 The test was done in Romania with 150 people over the age of 60. They were put in three groups with 50 people in each group. The first group were given nothing at all. The second group were given a placebo. The third group were given a real drug and told that it would help with the problems of old age. (In fact, it was not a drug for old age at all.) The three groups were studied for many years. The first group showed no changes from the way old people in that village had always been. The second group (with the placebo) had much better health and a lower death rate. The third group (with the real drug) showed much the same results as the group that took the placebo.10 A placebo can also have bad effects. If patients expect a bad reaction to medicine, then they will also show a bad reaction to the placebo. This would seem to show that a lot of how you react to medicine is in your mind rather than in your body. Some doctors still think that if the placebo can have bad effects it should never be used. They think there is still not enough known about it.11 And yet, the use of the placebo has been well known for hundreds of years in other countries. Tribal doctors in some African countries have known for a long time that patients will get better if they think they are going to. Many of the "treatments" they use do not seem able to make a sick person better, and yet such treatments work.12 The strange power of the placebo does seem to suggest that the human mind is stronger than we think it is. There are people who say you can heal your body by using your mind. And the interesting thing is that even people who swear this is not possible have been healed by a placebo.人体内有医生吗?1 当你去看病时,你总希望走时能拿到一张药方。

psychology in our life
Psychology In Our LifeWith the advancement of our civilization, not only do we gain more wealth which contributes to a colorful life, but also psychological diseases tend to be more popular. Due to feelings of helplessness and hopelessness is undermining a fast-growing number of people’s lives, the deliberation on what give rise to those psychological problems comes into vogue.Lots of people are inclined to think psychological diseases are mainly linked to individual reasons. We live in the relatively same society. Everyone, for sure, will encounter misfortune or reversal, which goes hand in hand with frustration and feelings of helplessness. Some people attach too much importance to the setback, whereupon, worrisome thoughts are constantly swirling in their minds, and lead themselves to sinking into depression. In the meantime, other people are prone to perceive a bad situation as a challenge. After a reversal, they will bounce back quickly, and participate in life enthusiastically and spontaneously.In contrast to this opinion, the opposite voice is that not personal reasons but social factors mainly rest with the popularity of psychological diseases. They think it is our society that pushes its members to work harder and even make us wear great pressure.From my point of view, the ways of looking at life is the main factor which affects our mood. Maybe the society is a contributing factor, but I think our mood can be in the grip of ourselves. If gloomy hit us, when we can’t change the outer world, we can change our attitude towards life and inoculate ourselves against the psychological ills. We are not the toy of fate, and won’t allow the psychological problems to block our chances for a rich and fulfilling life.。

B2U4课文翻译及课后练习答案
Unit 1 Psychology in Our Daily LifeIn-Class Reading Is There a Doctor in the Body?人体内有医生吗?1 当你去看病时,你总希望离开时能带走一张药方。
知道自己能得到一些药会让你感觉好一些。
但是医生清楚并不是所有情况都需要用药。
有时病人所需要的只是一个一切都会好的保证。
在这种情况下,医生可能就会开安慰剂。
2 安慰剂可以是糖丸、无害的针剂,或者空的胶囊。
尽管安慰剂中没有任何药物成分,但似乎也能使人康复。
病人以为这就是药,然后开始好转。
这究竟是怎么回事呢?3 安慰剂的研究让人们对人体如何进行自愈有了新的认识。
就好像我们每个人体内都有一个医生一样,这位“医生”能治好我们的病,如果我们让他治疗的话。
4 但是,我们仍然不清楚安慰剂究竟是如何治病的。
有些人说,它能起作用是因为人脑会欺骗自己。
这些人说如果能使大脑上当,误以为得到了药物治疗,那么大脑就会像真的得到了药物一样行事,于是身体就会好转。
5 另一些人持不同意见。
他们认为病人希望身体好转,而安慰剂能促使这种愿望成真。
如果病人知道是安慰剂的话,那就没有效果了。
这表明人体并没有上当受骗。
情况似乎是这样:如果病人以为他们得到了药物治疗,他们就会充满希望。
他们感到自己在接受治疗,这使他们更加强烈地希望身体好转,而正是这种希望帮助他们康复。
6 安慰剂并不总是有效。
这种疗法是否成功在很大程度上似乎取决于病人与医生之间的关系。
如果病人非常信任医生,而医生又真心想帮助病人的话,安慰剂就更有可能起作用。
所以从某种意义上说,医生是最有效的安慰剂。
7 有一项研究可以作为例子来说明医生在促使安慰剂发挥效用的过程中所起的作用。
一些溃疡出血的病人被分为两组。
第一组病人由一位医生告诉他们用了一种新药,并且相信这种药能够缓解他们的疼痛感。
第二组病人由一位护士告诉他们用了一种新药,但是药效如何却不太清楚。
结果,第一组中70%的病人病情明显好转,而第二组中只有25%的病人情况有了好转。

He knew that his wife would not be strong enough to do the digging by herself, but she could manage to do the planting; and he also knew that he did not have any friends or neighbors who would be willing to do the digging for him. So he wrote a letter to his wife which said, “Please do not dig the potato field. I hid the money and the gun there.”Ten days later he got a le tter from his wife. It said, “I think somebody is reading your letters before they go out of the prison. Some policemen arrived here two days ago and dug up the whole potato field. What shall I do now?”The prisoner wrote back at once, “Plant the potatoes, of course.”Listening IIExercise 1 √4 √5Exercise 21)the lift service 2)engineers 3)Add more lifts 4)faster ones 5)too expensive 6)a psychologist 7)Place a large mirror 8)simple 9)inexpensiveScript:The manager of a large office building received many complaints about the lift service in the building. He hired a group of engineers to study the situation. They suggested two solutions: 1) adding more lifts of the same type; 2) replacing the lifts with faster ones.The manager decided that both suggestions were too expensive. So he asked a psychologist to study the problem. The psychologist noticed that many people felt angry and impatient because they thought they had to wait too long for the lifts. However, the psychologist found that they had to wait only a relatively short time. It occurred to him that the reason they felt angry and impatient was that they had nothing to do while they were waiting for the lifts. He suggested a simple, inexpensive solution to the manager. This was adopted and complaints stopped immediately. The solution was to place a large mirror next to the lifts.Listening IIIExercise 1 1)T 2)T 3)F 4)F 5)TExercise 21)office 2)discussion 3)Immediately 4)long 5)describing 6)wrongs 7)over 8)shoulders 9)minutes 10)speechlessScript:After just a few years of marriage, filled with constant arguments, a young man and his wife decided the only way to save their marriage was to try therapy. They had been at each other's throats for some time and felt that this was their last resort.When they arrived at the therapist's office, the therapist jumped right in and opened the floor for discussion, “What seems to be the problem?” Immediately, the husband held his long face down without anything to say. On the other hand, the wife began describing all the wrongs within their marriage.After 5—10—15 minutes of listening to the wife, the therapist went over to her, picked her up by her shoulders, kissed her for several minutes, and sat her back down. Afterwards, the wife sat there—speechless.He looked over at the husband who was staring in disbelief at what had happened. The therapist spoke to the husband, “Your wife NEEDS that at least twice a week!”The husband scratched his head and replied, “I can have her here on Tuesdays and Thursdays.”Listening IVExercise 1 1)T 2)T 3)F 4)F 5)FExercise 2 1)less stressed 2)stress level; heart rate; blood pressure 3)discussion; social interaction; relaxed 4)laugh; greatScript:Joan: I'm so stressed out!

I'm supposed to have dinner with my best friend from college tonight but I think I should call her and say I can't.Thomas: No, Joan, don't call her. Have dinner with her and have a good time.Shelly: I agree with Kristen. Have dinner and talk about what fun you two had in college. Tomorrowyou'll feel less stressed.Joan: How do you know, Shelly?Shelly: I recently read an article in the magazine Psychology Today. It said social support, especially with old and good friends, can help you keep down your stress level. It can actually slow your heart rate and reduce your blood pressure.Thomas: I read that too. It also said that making time for close relationships is vital to helping you have good health. Some research suggests that people who are socially connected get a better night's rest too.Joan: OK, I'll go. I really wanted to, but, well, you know... By the way, Kristen, your job is stressful too. What are you doing tonight?Thomas: I've joined a book discussion group. We're meeting tonight. I always enjoy the discussion and social interaction, so I go home afterwards, feeling relaxed.Shelly: I'm going to call my sister.

The amount of space a person needs around him is a cultural preference, not an economic one. Knowing your own psychological space needs is important because they strongly influence your choices, including, for example, the number of bedrooms in the home. If you were brought up in a two-child family and both you and your sister or brother had your own bedrooms, then it's very likely that you will also provide separate bedrooms for your children. In America they train people to want their own private rooms by giving them their own rooms when they are babies. This is very rare in the world. In many cultures the baby sleeps in the same bed with his parents or in a crib near their bed.The areas in the home where people meet also reveal a lot about psychological space needs. Some families cluster, and the size of their house has nothing to do with it. Others have separate little places where family members go to be alone.Although psychological space needs are not determined by economic factors, they sometimes have to be modified a little because of economic pressures. It is almost impossible, however, to completely change your psychological space needs.Listening IIExercise 1 1)psychologists 2)influence 3)experimented 4)carrier 5)observed 6)normal 7)10 percent of the passers-by helped the non-handicapped man, and 15 percent helped the man with a cast. 8)set up a similar experiment in a situation where the subjects couldn’t leave.Exercise 2 1)A student volunteer 2)experiment 3)same 4)books 5)75 6)37.5 7)distracting 8)notice 9)respond 10)further annoyed 11)the noise 12)help outScript:Two recent studies by psychologists suggest that noise can influence how nice we are to others. They experimented by giving people a chance to help someone in trouble. A person would see a man carrying two boxes filled with books. As the person came closer, the book carrier dropped several books. The other researcher observed whether the passer-by offered to help.When the noise level was normal, 20 percent of the passers-by helped. When the experimenter wore a cast on his arm, 80 percent offered help.But when a very noisy lawnmower was nearby, 10 percent of the passers-by helped the non-handicapped man, and 15 percent helped the man with a cast.It seemed that people were less helpful when it was noisy because they wanted to escape the noise. So the researchers set up a similar experiment in a situation where the subjects couldn't leave.A student volunteer waited in a room before being called for an experiment he expected. The experimenter waited in the same room, holding some books. He dropped the books. The noise level in the room varied from normal to loud; 75 percent of the 52 students helped pick up the books under normal conditions, but only half that many volunteered when the room was noisy. Perhaps because of the distracting noise, the students didn't notice and respond quickly to the book-dropping. Or perhaps the book-dropping further annoyed the students already irritated by the noise, making them less likely to help out.Listening IIIExercise 1 1)C 2)A 3)C 4)A 5)BExercise 2 1)identify personalities 2)achievement 3)parties 4)center 5)crowd 6)getting along with 7)friendly; caring 8)planned 9)structured 10)a few friends 11)a big groupScript:(Three students, John, Sue, and Kelly, are looking at magazines in the library and commenting on some articles they see.)John: I think I've seen everything now!Sue: What do you mean?John: Have you ever heard of psycho-geometrics?Sue: No.John: I hadn't either. It's a new way of identifying personalities.Kelly: How?John: You think of the four basic shapes—square, triangle, circle and rectangle and decide which shape you like best.Sue: I like triangles. They make me think of the ancient Egyptian pyramids. What does that say about me?John: The triangle stands for ambition and high achievement.Sue: I like that. What else?John: You like to achieve. Once you decide what you want, nothing will stop you. Also you like to give big parties for friends and love being in the center of the crowd.Kelly: That fits you, Sue. What about me? I like circles. That's why I wear my blouse with the dots on it so often.John: The circle is a symbol of unity. Getting along with others is most important to you. You're friendly, caring and a good listener. No wonder you're so popular!Kelly: That's nice to know. What about you?John: I like squares. This is supposed to mean that I like things to be planned and structured, and also that finishing things is important to me.Kelly: What else?John: It says that I prefer being with just a few friends rather than with a big group.

He had become the talk of the week. He was the best guest this show had ever seen. The host stepped up to the mike.“Bob, you have chosen American history as your final question. You know that if you correctly answer this question, you will walk away $64,000 richer. Are you ready?”Bob nodded with confidence. The audience went nuts. He hadn't missed a question all week.“Bob, your question on American history is a two-part question. As you know, you may answer either part first. As a rule, the second half of the question is always easier. Which part would you like to answer first?”Bob was now becoming very nervous. He couldn't believe it, but he was drawing a blank. American history was his easiest subject, but he played it safe. “I'll try the easier part first.”The host nodded approvingly. “Here we go, Bob.

He knew that his wife would not be strong enough to do the digging by herself, but that she could manage to do the planting; and he also knew that he did not have any friends or neighbors who would be willing to do the digging for him. So he wrote a letter to his wife which said, “Please do not dig the potato field. I hid the money and the gun there.”Ten days later he got a letter from his wife. It said, “I think somebody is rea ding your letters before they go out of the prison. Some policemen arrived here two days ago and dug up the whole potato field. What shall I do now?”The prisoner wrote back at once, “Plant the potatoes, of course.” (155 words)Exercise 1 (Online)Directions:Listen to the story and decide whether the following statements are true or false.

He hired a group of engineers to study the situation. They suggested two solutions: 1. adding more lifts of the same type;2. replacing the lifts with faster ones.The manager decided that both suggestions were too expensive. So he asked a psychologist to study the problem. The psychologist noticed that many people felt angry and impatient because they thought they had to wait too long for the lift. However, the psychologist found that they had to wait only a relatively short time. It occurred to him that the reason they felt angry and impatient was that they had nothing to do while they were waiting for the lifts. He suggested a simple, inexpensive solution to the manager. This was adopted and complaints stopped immediately. The solution was to place a large mirror next to the lifts. (154 words)Exercise 1 (Online)Directions: Listen to the passage and pay attention to the reason why people have complaints.Choose the statement that correctly explains the reason.

They could have something to do while waiting for the lift and, of course, many people like to look at themselves in the mirror.2) Other possible solutions:a. to set up a picture gallery near the lift and change the pictures regularly;b. to put up-to-date newspapers on the wall;c. to open a small shop nearby where people can buy snacks;d. to put a shoe polisher (擦鞋器) there;e. to put a screen on the wall on which information about the stock exchange is shown;f. to play programs (e.g. news, short funny stories) on TV screens close to the lift.Part Three More ListeningPractice One I Can Have Her Here on T uesdays and Thursdays.Words Y ou Need to Know:constant不断的at each other’s throats激烈争吵therapy 治疗, 理疗resort方法therapist 治疗专家speechless 哑口无言的disbelief不相信TapescriptAfter just a few years of marriage, filled with constant arguments, a young man and his wife decided the only way to save their marriage was to try therapy. They had been at each other’sthroats for some time and felt that this was their last resort.When they arrived at the therapist’s office, the therapist j umped right in and opened the floor for discussion. “What seems to be the problem?” Immediately, the husband held his long face down without anything to say. On the other hand, the wife began describing all the wrongs within their marriage.After 5 -- 10 -- 15 minutes of listening to the wife, the therapist went over to her, picked her up by her shoulders, kissed her for several minutes, and sat her back down. Afterwards, the wife sat there--speechless.He looked over at the husband who was staring in disbelief at what had happened.

The amount of space a person needs around him is a cultural preference, not an economic one. Knowing your own psychological space needs is important because they strongly influence your choices, including, for example, the number of bedrooms in the home. If you were brought up in a two-child family and both you and your sister or brother had your own bedrooms, then it’s very likely that you will also provide separate bedrooms for your children. In America they train people to want their own private rooms by giving them their own rooms when they are babies. This is very rare in the world. In many cultures the baby sleeps in the same bed with his parents or in a crib near their bed.The areas in the home where people meet also reveal a lot about psychological space needs. Some families cluster, and the size of their house has nothing to do with it. Others have separate little places where family members go to be alone.Although psychological space needs are not determined by economic factors, they sometimes have to be modified a little because of economic pressures. It is almost impossible, however, tocompletely change your psychological space needs. (213 words)Exercise 1 (Online)Directions: Listen to the passage and decide whether the following phrases express the main ideaof the passage. Put a tick (√) in front of such items. Key to Exercise 1: B) E)Exercise 2 (Online)Directions: Listen to the passage again and complete the following flow chart which shows thepassage structure. The arrow( ) means “influence”.Key to Exercise 2:Exercise 3 (Online)Directions: Listen to the passage a third time and decide whether the following statements aretrue (T) or false (F) according to the passage. Write “T ” for true and“F ” for false in the space provided.Key to Exercise 3: 1) T 2) F 3) F 4) T 5) TPractice Three The Power of Color Words Y ou Need to Know:organ 器官 appropriate 适当的 hormone 荷尔蒙, 激素bloodstream 血液,血流 mood 情绪 nerves 神经紧张 by contrast 对比之下 atmosphere 气氛 focused 集中注意力的 enhance 增进 reflective 反射的 violet 紫色 stimulate 激励 enliven 使有生气 intuitiveness 本能TapescriptWouldn ’t it be great if changing your mood was as easy as changing your clothes? Well,according to psychologists, it is--when you use the power of color.Here’s how it works: When you see a color, your brain sends a chemical message to an organ of your body, which pours the appropriate hormone into the bloodstream. So for instance, if you wear red, a color the brain finds exciting, it sends a signal which puts you in the mood for love.Blue has a calming effect on the nerves. Wear blue if you want to keep yourself cool during a busy day with the children. By contrast, orange creates a joyful atmosphere and focused activity. Also, yellow is a cheerful color reminding us of summer days, and it aids in decision-making. White, however, enhances brain power and a reflective mood. V iolet is also a color which stimulates the mind toward creative thought. As well, it increases intuitiveness. Green is a relaxed color of springtime buds on trees, like springtime it also enlivens tired muscles. (203 words)Exercise 1 (Online)Directions:Listen to the passage and fill in each blank with the information you get from the passage.Key to Exercise 1:The colors you wear can make a big difference in the way you feel. When you see a color, your brain sends a chemical message,releasing the proper hormone into the bloodstream. A case in point is red , which the brain finds exciting . It sends a signal which will create a mood for love.Exercise 2 (Online)Directions:Listen to the passage again and fill in the table with the information you get from the passage.Practice Four Sensitive EarsWords Y ou Need to Know:cast石膏lawnmower 割草机unhandicapped 无残疾的subject 接受实验者volunteer 志愿者;自愿去做annoy恼怒irritate使烦躁TapescriptTwo recent studies by psychologists suggest that noise can influence how nice we are to others. They experimented by giving people a chance to help someone in trouble. A person would see a man carrying two boxes filled with books. As the person came closer, the book carrier dropped several books. The other researcher observed whether the passer-by offered to help.When the noise level was normal, 20 percent of the passers-by helped. When the experimenter wore a cast on his arm, 80 percent offered help.But when a very noisy lawnmower was nearby, 10% of the passers-by helped the unhandicapped man, and 15 percent helped the man with a cast.It seemed that people were less helpful when it was noisy because they wanted to escape the noise. So the researchers set up a similar experiment in a situation where the subjects couldn’t leave.A student volunteer waited in a room before being called for the experiment he expected. The experimenter waited in the same room, holding some books. He dropped the books. The noise level in the room varied from normal to loud; 75% of the 52 students helped pick up the books under normal conditions, but only half that many volunteered when the room was noisy. Perhaps because of the distracting noise, the students didn’t notice and respond quickly to the book-dropping. Or perhaps the book-dropping further annoyed students already irritated by the noise, making them less likely to help out. (244 words)Exercise 1 (Online)Directions: Listen to the passage and the questions that follow and answer them briefly by filling in the blanks.Questions for Exercise 11. What does the research suggest?2. How many experiments did the researchers perform?3. What did the researchers carry in both experiments?4. What kind of people took part in the experiments?5. How many experimenters did the subjects see in each experiment?Key to Exercise 1:1. Noise, how, nice2. Two3. Books4. Passers-by, student volunteers5. OneExercise 2 (Online)Directions: Listen to the passage again and fill in the table with the information you get from the passage.Part Four Testing Y ourselfSection IPsycho-geometricsTapescriptThree students, Janice, Sue, and Kelly, are looking at magazines in the library and commenting on some articles they see.Janice:I think I’ve seen everything now!Sue: What do you mean?Janice: Have you ever heard of psycho-geometrics?Sue: No.Janice:I hadn’t either. It’s a new way of identifying personalities.Kelly: How?Janice:Y ou think of the four basic shapes—square,triangle, circle and rectangle and decide which shape you like best.Sue: I like triangles. They make me think of the ancient Egyptian pyramids. What does that say about me?Janice: The triangle stands for ambition and high achievement.Sue: I like that. What else?Janice: Y ou like to achieve. Once you decide what you want, nothing stops you. Also you like to give big parties for friends and love being in the center of the crowd.Sue: That fits me.Kelly:What about me? I like circles. That’s why I wear my blouse with the dots in it so often. Janice: The circle is a symbol of un ity. Getting along with others is most important to you. Y ou’re friendly, caring and a good listener. No wonder you’re so popular!Kelly:That’s nice to know. What about you?Janice: I like squares. This is supposed to mean that I like things to be planned and structured.Also that finishing things is important to me.Kelly: What else?Janice: It says that I prefer being with just a few friends rather than with a big group. That’s really true.Sue: Do you believe all of this?Janice:I don’t know but it’s f un to think about. (246 words)Directions: Listen to the dialogue twice and fill in the blanks with appropriate words according to the story.Key:It is fun to know that four basic shapes can be used to identify personalities. Those who like triangles are ambitious and like to have high achievement. These people like giving big parties for friends and love being in the center of the crowd. People who love circles and squares are different. Circle is a symbol of unity. Those circle lovers think getting along with others is most important, so they are friendly, caring and good listeners. People who like squares like everything to be planned and structured. Besides, they would rather being with a few friends than with a big group.Section IITV ShowTapescriptBob had finally made it to the last round of the $64,000 Question.
