More than a quarter fear they will feel crazy with some other noisy and roughholiday-makers and 22 percent worry they may be attacked or their possessions will be missing.

Whatever it takes for us to reduce pressure is important to our emotional(情感的)health, and crying seems to work weft. One study found that 85 percent of women and 73 percent of men report feeling better after crying.Besides, tears attract help from other people. Researchers agree that when we cry, people around us become kinder and friendlier and they are more ready to provide support and comfort. Tears also enable us to understand our emotions better; sometime s we don’t even know we’re very sad until we cry. We learn about our emotions through crying, and then we can deal with them. Just as crying can be healthy, not crying -- holding back tears of anger, pain or suffering -- can be bad for physical(身体的) health. Studies have shown that too much control of emotions can lead to high good pressure, heart problems and some other illnesses. If you have a health problem, doctors will certainly not ask you to cry. But when you feel like crying, don’t fight it. It’s a natural—and healthy—emotional response(反应).26.Why didn’t the author cry when her grandmother died?A.

A New Scientific DiscoveryTEXTＣHandshaking, though a European practice, is now often seen in big cities of China.It is said that long long ago in Europe when people met, they showed their unarmed (无武器的) hands to each other as a sign of goodwill. As time went on and trade in cities grew rapidly, people in cities began to clap each other’s hands to make a deal or to reach an agreement. This practice was later changed into shaking hands among friends on meeting or leaving each other. “Let’s shake (hands) on it” sometimes means agreeme nt reached.Do the Europeans shake hands wherever they go and with whomever they meet? No. Sometimes the Chinese abroad reach out their hands too often to be polite. It is really very impolite to give your hand when the other party, especially when it is a woman, shows little interest in shaking hands with you and when the meeting does not mean anything to him or her. Even if, for politeness, he holds out his unwilling hand in answer to your uninvited hand, just touch it slightly. There is generally a misunderstanding(误解) among the Chinese that westerners are usually open and straightforward, while the Chinese are rather reserved (保守的) in manner. But straightforward, while in fact some people in western countries are more reserved than some Chinese today. So it is a good idea to shake hands with a westerner only when he shows interest in further relations with you.30. According to the text, which of the following statements is true?A. Westerners are more reserved than the Chinese.B. Westerners are unwilling to shake hands.C. We should make a judgement before shaking hands.D. We shouldn’t shake hands with European women.31.
