On a trip to a zoo, perhaps? If you had attended a winter activity in New York a few years ago, you would have seen a whole polar bear club. These "Polar Bears" are people who meet frequently in the winter to swim in freezing cold water. That day, the air temperature was 3℃, and the water temperature was a bit higher. The members of the Polar Bear Club at Coney Island, New York are usually about the age of 60. Members must satisfy two requirements. First, they must get along well with everyone else in the group, this is very important because there are so many different kinds of people in the club. Polar Bears must also agree to swim outdoors at least twice a month from November through February.Doctors do not agree about the medical effects of cold-water swimming. Some are worried about the dangers of a condition in which the body's temperature drops so low that finally the heart stops. Other doctors, however, point out that there is more danger of a heart attack during summer swimming because the difference between the air temperature and water temperature is much greater in summer than in winter.The Polar Bears themselves are satisfied with the benefits of cold-water swimming. They say that their favorite form of exercise is very good for the circulatory system(循环系统)because it forces the blood to move fast to keep the body warm. Cold-water swimmers usually turn bright red after a few minutes in the water. A person who turns blue probably has a very poor circulatory system and should not try cold-water swimming.The main benefits of cold-water swimming are probably mental. The Polar Bears love to swim year-round; they find it fun and relaxing. As one 70-year-old woman says. "When I go into the water, I pour my troubles into the ocean and let them float away."11. The members of the Polar Bear Club must meet the following requirements exceptthat_____.A. they should be easy to make friends withB. they must swim outdoors at least 8 times in the four cold monthsC. they must agree to swim outdoors from November through FebruaryD. they must reach the age of 6012. Doctors _____.A. encourage people to take part in cold-water swimming activelyB. point out the possible danger of blood illness during cold-water swimmingC. believe swimming is helpful both in winter and in summerD. have different ideas about the medical effects of cold-water swimming13. According to the passage, some doctors believe it is true that _____.A. you are healthy if cold-water swimming turns your skin color blueB. cold-water swimming causes more heart attacks in summer than in winterC. cold-water swimming can make the body temperature dangerously highD. Polar Bears are bears swimming in freezing water14. The Polar Bears like to swim all the year round, for _____.A. they can remain youngB. it is an easy way to keep the body warm in winterC. they find it enjoyable and interestingD. they might meet fewer troubles in life15. The passage is mainly about _____.A. a group of cold-water swimming loversB. the Polar Bears' life in New YorkC. doctors' ideas about cold-water swimmingD. the requirements of the Polar Bear ClubPassage 2Without proper planning, tourism can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants of a country. If tourists create too much traffic, the inhabitants become annoyed and unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely. They forget how much tourism can help the country's economy. It is important to think about the people of a destination country and how tourism affects them. Tourism should help a country keep the customs and beauty that attract tourists. Tourism should also advance the well-being (health and happiness) of local inhabitants.Too much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry. This means that other parts of the country's economy can suffer.On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people can lose) jobs. Businesses can also lose money. It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels, airports, air terminals, first-class roads, and other support facilities needed by tourists attractions. Forexample, a major international-class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to build. If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel lose money.Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many support facilities as well, including roads to get to the hotel, electricity, sewers to handle waste, and water. All of these support facilities cost money. If they are not used because there are not enough tourists, jobs and money are lost.16. Which of the following has most probably been discussed in the paragraph that goes before this passage?A) Support facilities are highly necessary.B) Building roads and hotels is essential.C) It is extremely important to develop tourism.D) Planning is of great importance to tourism.17. Too much tourism can cause all these problems EXCEPT ___________.A) pressure on trafficB) a change of tourists' customsC) overcrowdedness of places of interestD) a bad effect on other industries18. Not enough tourism can lead to ______________.A) an increase of unemploymentB) the higher cost of support facilitiesC) a decrease in tourist attractionsD) a rise in price and a fall in pay19. It is good for local people to know well that tourism will ______________.A) use up a large amount of waterB) help establish their customsC) weaken their economyD) help improve their life20. The word "handle" in the last paragraph most probably means ___________.A) deal with B) get in C) take down D) pick upPassage 3Many people with ordinary jobs may dream of long holidays in foreign countries, but they know they couldn't afford them even if they could get enough time off from the company. However, there are a few businesses which have started schemes to reward employees with long service by giving them a chance to fulfill such ambitions by providing both the time andthe money.One company gives every employee over 50 years old and who has been with them for 25 years, six months' holiday on full pay. At the same time additional money can be made available by way of loans, to help them with projects they cannot otherwise offer. Most of the people who have already benefited from the scheme, have used the opportunity to travel to distant places like the Far East or South America and some have spent the money on their favorite hobbies, such as photography.The cost of providing these special holidays is fairly high but the directors feel it is well worthwhile because the employees are greatly refreshed by their long break from the pressures and routines of their jobs. The only problems are that the people concerned tend to have key jobs which can be difficult to fill on a temporary basis for a relatively long time. Besides, some employees find it difficult to re-adjust to the old routine after such a long time away. In addition, one or two people may not feel secure at leaving their job in someone else's hands. On balance, however, there is no doubt that the idea is beneficial to industrial relations and a wonderful reward for long service.21. Many workers would like to ___________.A) dream of long holidays at homeB) spend a long time in unusual placesC) buy a holiday away from homeD) have a long holiday after many years22. One company____________.A) gives money to employees over 25 yearsB) lends staff money to go on holidaysC) allows long holidays to certain staffD) arranges long holidays for old employees23. Most of the employees in the scheme ____________.A) enjoy leisure activities B) develop their hobbiesC) take up photography D) take foreign trips24. The directors feel that _____________.A) the staff get a lot of pleasures from the schemeB) older staff are very enthusiastic about holidaysC) the scheme is more expensive than they expectedD) the scheme is beneficial to staff relations25. One of the problems is that ________________.A) it is difficult to fill a temporary jobB) some employees are afraid of their colleaguesC) it is difficult for some people to re-adjust to the old routine after a long breakD) employees don't feel secure when they are awayPassage 4If U.S. software companies don't pay more attention to quality, they could kiss their business good-bye. Both India and Brazil are developing a world-class software industry. Their weapon is quality and one of their jobs is to attract the top U.S. quality specialists whose voices are not listened to in their country.Already, of the world's 12 software houses that have earned the highest rating in the world, seven are in India. That's largely because they have used new methodologies rejected by American software specialists. For example, for decades, quality specialists, W. Edwards Deming and J. M. Juran had urged U.S. software companies to change their attitudes to quality. But their quality call mainly fell on deaf ears in the U.S. -but not in Japan. By the 1970s and 1980s, Japan was grabbing market share with better, cheaper products. They used Deming's and Juran's ideas to bring down the cost of good quality to as little as 5% of total production costs. In U.S. factories, the cost of quality then was 10 times as high: 50%. In software, it still is.Watts S. Humphrey spent 27 years at IBM heading up software production and then quality assurance. But his advice was seldom paid attention to. He retired from IBM in 1986. In 1987, he worked out a system for assessing and improving software quality. It has proved its value time and again. For example, in 1990 the cost of quality at Raytheon Electronics Systems was almost 60% of total software production costs. It fell to 15% in 1996 and has since further dropped to below 10%.Like Deming and Juran, Humphrey seems to be wining more praises overseas than at home. The India government and several companies have just founded the Watts Humphrey Software Quality Institute at the Software Technology Park in Chennai, India.Let's hope that U.S. lead in software will not be eaten up by its quality problems.26. What country has more highest-rating companies in the world than any other country has?A. Germany.B. The U.S.C. BrazilD. India27. Which of the following statements about Humphrey is true?A. He is now still an IBM employer.B. He has worked for IBM for 37 years.C. The US pays much attention to his quality advice.D. India honors him highly.28. By what means did Japan grab its large market share by the 1970s and the 1980s?A. Its products were cheaper in price and better in quality.B. Its advertising was most successful.C. The US hardware industry was lagging behind .D. Japan hired a lot of India software specialists.29. What does the founding of the Watts Humphrey Software Quality Institute symbolize?A. It symbolizes the US determination to move ahead with its softwareB. .It symbolizes the India ambition to take the lead in software.C. It symbolizes the Japanese efforts to solve the software quality problem.D. It symbolizes the Chinese policy on importing software.30. What is the writer worrying about?A. Many US software specialists are working for Japan.B. The quality problem has become a worldwide problem.C. The US will no longer be the first software player in the world.D. India and Japan are joining hands to compete with the US.第三部分：词汇和结构31．--- We ______ that you would fix the TV set this week.--- I’m sorry.

大学英语三级B级真题2023年6月答案
You'd better make a phone call (check) ______ whether the email has been received. 答案:to check不定式表目的通常是指发生在谓语动作之后的动作，也就是说，若以谓语动作发生的时间为标准，用作目的状语的不定式是一个尚未发生的动作。
如本句中check的动作发生在make a phone call这个动作之后。
27.We had been working for almost 16 hours, and we (final)______ finished the task. 答案:finally考查形容词和副词的转换。
空格在主语we和谓语动词finished之间，故应该填入副词。
final“最终的”变成副词是finally“终于，最终”。
形容词转变成副词的规则：①一般情况下直接加-ly，如traditional(传统的)—traditionally(传统地)，wide(宽的)—widely(宽地)．②以y结尾的，先将y改成i，再加-ly，如happy(幸福的)—happily(幸福地)；③少数以e结尾的形容词，要去掉e再加-ly，如true(真实的)—truly(真实地)。
28. The Prize in Economics (establish) ______ in 1968, that is, more than half a century ago.答案:was established考查被动语态的用法。
空格前的主语中心词是Prize，空格后是表时间的介词短语，以及插入语that is，用于引出1968的同位语，进一步解释这个年份。
因此句子缺少谓语动词，establish“建立，设立”的动作是由人或机构发出的，主语“经济学奖”是这个动作的承受者，故应该使用被动语态。
由于1968是表过去的时间，本句时态用一般过去时；由于主语The Prize是第三人称单数，因此填入was established。

The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 to 45.The human body has developed its millions of nerves to be highly aware of what goes on both inside and outside of it. This helps us adjust to the outside world. Without our nerves and our brain, which is a system of nerves, we couldn't knowwhat's happening. But we pay for our sensitivity. Wec an feel pain when the slightest thing is wrong with any part of our body. The history of torture ( 折磨) is based on the human body being open to pain.But there is a way to handle pain. Look at the Indian fakir ( 苦行僧) who sits on a bed of nails. Fakirs can put a needle fight through an arm, and feel no pain. This ability that some humans have developed to handle pain should give us ideas about how the mind can deal with pain.The big thing in withstanding pain is our attitude toward it. If the dentist says, "This will hurt a little," it helps us to accept the pain. By staying relaxed, and by treating the pain as an interesting sensation ( 感觉), we can handle the pain without falling apart. After all, although pain is an unpleasant sensation, it is still a sensation, and sensations are the stuff of life.41.The human body has developed a system of nerves that enables us toA) stay relaxedB) avoid painC)stand tortureD)feel pain42.What does the writer mean by saying "we pay for our sensitivity" in thefirst paragraph?A) We have to take care of our sense of pain.B) We suffer from our sense of feeling.C)We should try hard to resist pain.D)We are hurt when we feel pain.43.When the author mentions the Indian fakir, he shows thatA) fakirs possess magic powerB) Indians are not afraid of painC)people can learn to cope with painD)some people are born without a sense of pain44.What is essential for people to stand pain according to the writer?A)Their relaxation.B)Their interest.C)Their nerves.D)Their attitude.45.The author believes thatA) feeling pain is part of our lifeB) pain should be avoided at all costsC)feeling pain can be an interesting thingD)magic power is essential for reducing painTask 3Directions: The following is a letter recommending a product after reading it;you are required to complete the outline below it (No. 46 to No. 50).

Someone you had great confidence in，surely．But several lines of research show thatour instincts about where to mm to for counsel are often not completely correct．My research looksat prejudices that affect how people use advice，including why theyoften blindly follow recommendations from people who—as far as they know—are as knowledgeable as they are．In studies I conducted with Don Moore of Carnegie MellonUniversity，for example，I found matpeople tend to overvalue advice when the problem they’readdressing is hard and to undervalue it when the problem iseasy． In our experiments．subjects were asked to guess the weight of people in various pictures，some of which werein focus and some of which were unclear．For each picture，subjects guessed twice:the first time without advice and the second time with input from another participant．When me pictures were in focus，wefound，subjects tended to discount theadvice；apparently，theywere confident in their ability to guesscorrectly．When the pictures were unclear，subjectsleaned heavily on me advice ofothers and seemed less secure about their initialopinion．Becausethey misjudged the value 0f the advice theyreceived--consistently overvaluing orundervaluing it depending on the difficulty of the problem—our subjectsdid not make the best guesses overall．Theywould have done better if they’dconsidered the advice equally，and to a moderate degree，on both hard andeasytasks.Another advice—related prejudice I've found compels people toovervalue advice that they pay for．n one study Iconducted，subjectsanswered different sets of questions about American history．Beforeanswering some of the questions．theycould get advice on the correct answer from another subject whom they knew was nomore expert than they were．In one version of the experiment，people could get advice for free，while in another version，they paid for it．When they paid forad’vice，peopletended to have firm belief in it，Isuspect，by a combination of

1参考译文凯瑟琳·布朗，一位三十七岁记者，每次和她三四十岁朋友们在伦敦一间咖啡屋碰面时，她们爱聊话题就是“关系〞:男人们怠于承担，女人们自立，还有什么时候要孩子——或者，越来越多地谈到到底要不要孩子.“年华流逝，我要孩子时机也在减少，但是我不会仅为了要孩子而找个人结婚，〞布朗说道.对于像布朗一样人而言，有孩子再好不过了——当然假设时机到了.但孩子肯定不是必须 .在世界许多地方，要孩子都不再是必须.“从前，不要孩子这个决定对于许多社会中男男女女都是不可理解，〞伦敦经济学院弗朗克·哈基姆说道.年轻人正在延长他们无予无女成年光阴，推延生儿育女年龄，直到他们步入三十，或四十岁，或更久.越来越多人终生没有孩子.在德国西部，受过大学教育女性中，百分之三十终生无子女，这一比例在下层男性中正快速增长.在英国，女性无子女人数在二十年内翻了一番.新近漉行无子女潮流并没有延续历史形式.几个世纪以来，四分之一欧洲女性无子女是很寻常事.但是在过去，无子女常常是因为贫穷或灾害，或是因为战争时期缺少男性.如今，决定要——或是不要——孩子取决于一系列因素，包括各类关系、事业机遇、生活方式以及经济状况.某些情况下女性无子女可视为一种沉默对抗形式.在日本，工作女性几乎孤立无援.照料孩子开销很大，男人不分担，并且许多公司强烈抗议妈妈级女性重新回来工作.“在日本，事业与孩子不可兼得，〞作家叶石香织说道.根据近一项研究说明，不光是女人:不想要孩子，日本男人更不想结婚生子.日本男人考虑更多是经济方面原因.46．D细节题.从文章段后一句话“But they are certainly not essential〞得知，对布朗和她朋友来说，孩子肯定不是必须 .应选D.47．A【精析】推理题.从文章中得知现代社会妇女生育是综合一系列因素之后做出决定，是困难选择.应选A.48．C【精析】细节题.从文章第四段第三句话“But in the past，childlessness was usually the product of poverty or disaster，of missing men in times of war．〞可以得知，过去妇女不育是由于一系列不幸因素.应选C.49．D【精析】细节题.从文章第四段第四句话“a child is the resultof a complex combination of factors〞得知，不生孩子原因比过去更复杂.应选D.50．B 【精析】细节题.从文章第五段第三句话“Child care is expensive，and men don’t help out．〞及后一句话“Their motivations，though，may have more to do with economicfactors．〞可知，日本男人决定不要孩子很可能是因为财力无法承担.应选B.Text2参考译文当面临重大决定时，你会向谁求助呢?当然是你信任人!但是多项研究说明我们向别人求助本能经常不是完全正确 .我研究旨在观察影响人们对待建议态度偏见，包括他们为什么会执着于和他们自身见识一样人建议.我与卡内基麦隆大学顿·摩尔共同进展研究说明，当人们处理问题棘手时，他们倾向于过于重视别人意见，反之那么轻视别人意见.在实验中，我们要求调查对象猜测几幅画中人物体重，有明晰，有不明晰.对每幅画，他们都有两次猜时机，次没有别人建议，而第二次那么可以根据另一个参与者信息.我们发现，当图像明晰时候，他们倾向于排斥别人意见，相信自己正确判断才能.而当图像模糊时候，他们那么过于依赖别人建议，对于自己原先判断不确定.由于他们对于所承受建议价值一直都没有做出正确判断，一直都是高估或低估，所以他们整体上没有做出猜测.假设他们在一定程度上平等考虑所有建议，他们表现可能会好很多.我发现了另一个与建议有关倾向性，即人们会高估他们付费建议.在我开展一个研究中，调查对象答复了几组关于美国历史问题.答复一些问题之前，他们可以从另外一个调查对象那里得到一个正确答案建议，他明白这个调查对象知道和他一样多.在一次试验中，他们无偿得到建议.而在另一个实验中却要付费.付费时，人们倾向于坚信这个建议.我疑心，这是由于漂浮本钱偏见以及近乎本能一种信念，即代价与质量相关.51．C 【精析】细节题.从文章段第二句话“Someone you had greatconfidence in，surely!〞得知，当面临重大决定时，人们总是受到别人影响.应选C.52．D【精析】细节题.从文章第二段第二句话“people tend to overvalue advice when the problem theyare addressing is hard!〞得知，当人们处理问题棘手时，他们总是过于依赖别人建议.应选D.53．C【精析】推理题.从文章中得知，在个试验中，影像明晰程度影响了调查对象对别人意见依赖程度.应选C.54．A【精析】推理题.从文章后一段得知，人们缴纳咨询费时，往往会对别人建议坚信不疑，可推知假设免费得到建议，那么不太重视.应选A.55．D【精析】推理题.从文章中得知，个实验是为了测试客观条件对人们是否依赖别人建议影响，第二个是为了判断付费对人们是否依赖别人建议影响.应选D.Text3参考译文在修正薪金构造中，一流国民保健护理人员在无需分开病人监护线情况下，将得到40，000 美金年薪.新“超级护理员〞级别创立将使人员在不转向管理型文案工作情况下进步薪水成为可能.目前，国民保健护理员年薪为28，000美金，条件是护理员自愿撤离线，而成为管理人员.由于这一奇怪现象，病人护理行业每年都会流失成百上千位经历丰富且非常合格护理员.尽管英国33，200位国民保健护理员中仅有几千人能合格，并获得超过40，000美金年薪，但平步青云之道和更简化评级制度将大大增加他们薪水.政府声明，新简化事业构造将用四个级别来代替现有六个级别.护理员将从保健助理身份起步，之后将升为注册医疗师、高级注册医疗师，后是高级参谋医生.年薪40，000美金.“护理员正在应对来自现代化挑战，〞一位政府官员讲到.“这些调整将有助于护理员改善其职业作用，给病人提供更好效劳.我们认为，护理人员不应为了高薪水而调入管理部门.理应有一事业构造使工作在病人保健线护理员不因留在保健部门而在薪资方面处于不利地位.〞护理策略将囊括:准许更加灵敏培训课程，为业已分开其本职工作而转向兼职合格护理员提供更多时机.皇家护理学院乐于承受这些改进.薪资程度与已提交给政府数据相应. 56．B 【精析】细节题.从文章段第四句话 “Hundreds of experienced and highly—qualifiednurses are lost to thepatient care each year because of this oddity〞得知，保健护理人员是不满足之前低薪水，所以分开了护理线.应选B.57．D【精析】细节题.从文章段第二句话“enable the best staffto increase their salaries〞得知，受益是级别护士.应选D.58．D【精析】细节题.从文章第二段第二句话“The government announced that anew simplified career structure would see just four grades replacingthe existing six．〞得知，新规定特点是简化了护士等级，由六级减为四级.应选D.59．C【精析】推理题.由文中得知，新规定目就是增加护士收入，应选C.60．A【精析】细节题.从文章第四段第三句话“The top salary level falls into tine with figures it had presented to the ministers．〞得知，皇家护理学院为护士提出工资与已提交给政府数据保持一致.选项A是指为护士提供类似工资.应选A.PartB参考译文说明:下文来自于五个人对全球贫困议题评论.为61-65题中人物名字(61-65)挑选出与他们观点相应观点(A—G).将答案填到答题纸1上.安基塔·阿加瓦尔:您文章让我感到很惭愧.一直以来，我总认为自己不是那种典型自以为是少年，但我还是错了.当我坐在既宽阔又温暖舒适家里，梦想着那些我在青春杂志里看到鞋子和衣服时，世界上还有人在盼望着诸如干净水源这样极其简单东西.诩谢您让我明白应该为拥有事物感到幸福.珍妮特·特哈达:人口，消费和资源之间有什么样关系呢?总之，简单点来定义贫困，就是拥有资源缺乏.全球人口持续增长，如美国之类兴隆国家严重过度资源消费．和不断成长开展中国家中产阶级不断攀升消费程度，让地球资源不断减少并且难以供应.河边正:极端贫困实在是个悲剧.突发自然灾害.比方地震，会右短时期内引来大量人力和资金.然而在非洲过程更慢但规模宏大贫困和死亡浪潮，却没有受到那样关注.当我们在帮助那些灾难和贫困中人时，我们更应该帮助那些生还者，使他们过得更好一些，而非过多关注那些死去人们.简·托马斯:在建立组织、学习技能、开发资源、施行所在社区方案方面，那些贫困人们应该优先受到培训.你文中主张是传统自上而下方式:外来人决定优先权和方案，然后给予他们资金.为了更实在际地帮助他们，我们必须开展我们自己技能并对他们进展理解.我们需要弄清楚那些贫困人们需要，以及这些困难根源所在.我们需要聆听那些穷人们怎么说.桑杰·克提:为减轻开展中国家贫穷而做出宏大奉献人们，他们·心怀忧虑和担忧，他们作为是值得赞赏 .然而可悲是，到穷人手里只是很少一部分基金.假设那些大方解囊人花点时间直接到那些贫穷国家去督查一下话，那些用于减贫基金将会得到更有效地利用.61．F【精析】主旨题.安基塔·阿加瓦尔认为自己坐在宽阔温暖舒适房子里，渴望着更多鞋子与衣服，而有人却连根本饮用水都没有，相比之下，突然觉得自己很幸福，与F 项“富裕中人们应当珍惜当下生活〞表示意思一样.应选F.62．C【精析】主旨题.珍妮特·特哈达认为贫困之源在于兴隆国家和开展中国家中产阶级过度消费资源导致资源全球性分配不公，与C项“贫困之源在于资源分配不公〞表示意思一样.应选C.63．D【精析】主旨题.河边正认为国际社会对地震等天灾很关注，但对于慢性、大规模贫困却不重视，与D项“非洲形势被世界忽略〞表示意思一样.应选D.64．A【精析】主旨题.简·托马斯认为我们应该教会穷人建立组织，学习技能，使他们社区实现自立，与A项“我们应该帮助穷人自助〞表示意思一样.应选A.65．E【精析】主旨题.桑杰·克提认为旨在帮助穷人基金只有很少一部分真正用到了穷人身上，提出要监视资金使用情况，与E项“基金使用应受到严格控制〞表示意思一样.应选E.第四部分写作PartA66．【高分范文】Towhom

Now I’ m on my first bus trip and I’ m quite amazed at the services offered during the trip. Included are meals on the way, rest rooms, public-address announcements and a uniformed hostess. Just now I introduced myself to the hostess on the bus, and we compared experience on air and ground travel. At lunch time, she gave out menus offering a choice of sandwiches.

The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 to 45.The human body has developed its millions of nerves to be highly aware of what goes on both inside and outside of it. This helps us adjust to the outside world. Without our nerves and our brain, which is a system of nerves, we couldn't know what's happening. But we pay for our sensitivity. We can feel pain when the slightest thing is wrong with any part of our body. The history of torture ( 折磨 ) is based on the human body being open to pain.But there is a way to handle pain. Look at the Indian fakir ( 苦行僧 ) who sits on a bed of nails. Fakirs can put a needle fight through an arm, and feel no pain. This ability that some humans have developed to handle pain should give us ideas about how the mind can deal with pain.The big thing in withstanding pain is our attitude toward it. If the dentist says, "This will hurt a little," it helps us to accept the pain. By staying relaxed, and by treating the pain as an interesting sensation ( 感觉 ), we can handle the pain without falling apart. After all, although pain is an unpleasant sensation, it is still a sensation, and sensations are the stuff of life.41.
