When I came back with the coffee, there was someone in the next 41 . It was one of those wild-looking youngsters, 42 dark glasses and worn clothes, and 43 colored bright red at the front. Not so unusual these days. What did 44 me was that he had started to eat my chocolate.

Whenever a gentleman came in with a lady, a smiling waiter gave each of them a beautiful menu. The menu looked exactly the same on the outside, but there was an important difference inside.

Doctors say anger can be an very harmful emotion(情绪)unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that angry feelings can lead to heart disease，stomach problems，headaches， emotional problems and possibly cancer.
Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time. Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger，losing control of themselves. But other people repress their anger. They cannot or will not express it.
For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person’s health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry，the brain gives off the same hormones(激素)that are produced during tense situations. They speed the heart rate，raise blood pressure，or sugar into the blood and narrow the blood vessels(脉管)to the interstices(空隙). In general，the person feels excited and ready to act.
Doctors said that repressing these feelings only makes the feelings continue. And this can lead to many medical problems. Doctors thought a person could prevent these problems by letting the anger out by expressing it freely. But recently some doctors held a different view. They said that people who express anger repeatedly and violently did become，in fact，more and not less angry.
They said this，too，can cause medical problems.
Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease， and they believe that those who keep their anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure.
Doctors say the solution(解决办法)is learning how to deal with anger. They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger，and then decide if the cause is serious. If it is，they say：“Do not express your anger while angry. Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably. ”
64. What does the phrase repress anger mean?
A.Forget one’s anger.
B. Express one’s anger openly.
C.Treat one’s anger calmly and reasonably.
D.Keep one’s anger inside.
65. Repressing anger is considered to be dangerous because of all the following except that _____.
A. the heart rate increases
B. the blood pressure rises
C. the blood contains sugar
D. some blood vessels become thinner
66. When you get angry，which of the following should you do for the good of health?
A. Repressing the anger.
B. Expressing the anger.
C. Learning how to make a deal.
D. Treating the anger properly.
67. What is the central topic of this passage about?
A.The different ways of dealing with anger.
