17、can choose from various new styles.BHowever wealthy we may be, we can never find enough hours in the day to do everything we want. Economics deals with this problem through the concept of opportunity cost, which simply refers to whether someones time or money could be better spent on something else.
18、Every hour of our time has a value. For every hour we work at one job we could quite easily be doing another, or be sleeping or watching a film. Each of these options has a different opportunity costnamely, what they cost us in missed opportunities.Say you intend to watch a football match but the ti
19、ckets are expensive and it will take you a couple of hours to get to and from the stadium. Why not, you might reason, watch the game from home and use the leftover money and time to have dinner with friends? Thisthe alternative use of your cash and timeis the opportunity cost.For economists, every d
20、ecision is made by knowledge of what one must forgoin terms of money and enjoymentin order to take it up. By knowing precisely what you are receiving and what you are missing out on, you ought to be able to make better-informed, more reasonable decisions. Consider that most famous economic rule of a
21、ll: theres no such thing as a free lunch. Even if someone offers to take you out to lunch for free, the time you will spend in the restaurant still costs you something in terms of forgone opportunities.Some people find the idea of opportunity cost extremely discouraging: imagine spending your entire
22、 life calculating whether your time would be better spent elsewhere doing something more profitable or enjoyable. Yet, in a sense its human nature to do precisely thatwe assess the advantages and disadvantages of decisions all the time.In the business world, a popular phrase is “value for money.” Pe
23、ople want their cash to go as far as possible. However, another is fast obtaining an advantage: “value for time.” The biggest restriction on our resources is the number of hours we can devote to something, so we look to maximize the return we get on our investment of time. By reading this passage yo
24、u are giving over a bit of your time which could be spent doing other activities, such as sleeping and eating. In return, however, this passage will help you to think like an economist, closely considering the opportunity cost of each of your decisions.38According to the passage, the concept of “opp
25、ortunity cost” is applied to _.A. making more money B. taking more opportunitiesC. reducing missed opportunities D. weighing the choice of opportunities39The “leftover . time” in Paragraph 3 probably refers to the time _.A. spared for watching the match at home B. taken to have dinner with friendsC.

27、nger weakens a persons ability to think clearly and keep control over his behaviour. The angry person loses objectivity in evaluating the emotional significance of the person or situation that arouses his anger.Not everyone experiences anger in the same way; what angers one person may amuse another.
28、 The specific expression of anger also differs from person to person based on biological and cultural forces. In contemporary culture, physical expressions of anger are generally considered too socially harmful to be tolerated. We no longer regard duels (决斗)as an appropriate expression of anger resu
29、lting from one persons awareness of insulting behaviour on the part of another. Anger can be identified in the brain, where the electrical activity changes. Under most conditions EEG (脑电图)measures of electrical activity show balanced activity between the right and left prefrontal (额叶前部)areas. Behavi
30、ourally this corresponds to the general even-handed disposition (意向)that most of us possess most of the time. But when we are angry the EEG of the right and left prefrontal areas arent balanced and, as a result of this, were likely to react. And our behavioural response to anger is different from ou
31、r response to other emotions, whether positive or negative.Most positive emotions are associated with approach behaviour: we move closer to people we like. Most negative emotions, in contrast, are associated with avoidance behaviour: we move away from people and things that we dislike or that make u
32、s anxious. But anger is an exception to this pattern. The angrier we are, the more likely we are to move towards the object of our anger. This corresponds to what psychologists refer to as of ensive anger: the angry person moves closer in order to influence and control the person or situation causin
33、g his anger. This approach-and-confront behaviour is accompanied by a leftward prefrontal asymmetry (不对称)of EEG activity. Interestingly, this asymmetry lessens if the angry person can experience empathy (同感)towards the individual who is bringing forth the angry response. In defensive anger, in contr
34、ast, the EEG asymmetry is directed to the right and the angry person feels helpless in the face of the anger-inspiring situation.41The “duels” example in Paragraph 2 proves that the expression of anger _.A. usually has a biological basis B. varies among peopleC. is socially and culturally shaped D.
35、influences ones thinking and evaluation42What changes can be found in an angry brain?A. Balanced electrical activity can be spotted.B. Unbalanced patterns are found in prefrontal areas.C. Electrical activity corresponds to ones behaviour.D. Electrical activity agrees with ones disposition.43Which of
36、 the following is typical of offensive anger?A. Approaching the source of anger. B. Trying to control what is disliked.C. Moving away from what is disliked. D. Feeling helpless in the face of anger.44What is the key message of the last paragraph?A. How anger differs from other emotions. B. How anger

42、verybodys doing it,” is very much at the center of the concept of peer pressure. It is a strong influence of a group, especially of children, on members of that group to behave as everybody else does. It can be positive or negative. Most people experience it in some way during their lives.People are
43、 social creatures by nature, and so it is hardly surprising that part of their self-respect comes from the approval of others. This instinct (天性)is why the approval of peers, or the fear of disapproval, is such a powerful force in many peoples lives. It is the same instinct that drives people to dre
44、ss one way at home and another way at work, or to answer “fine” when a stranger asks “how are you?” even if it is not necessarily true. There is a practical aspect to this: it helps society to function efficiently, and encourages a general level of self-discipline that simplifies day-to-day interact
45、ion.For certain individuals, seeking social acceptance is so important that it becomes like an addiction; in order to satisfy the desire, they may go so far as to abandon their sense of right and wrong. Teens and young adults may feel forced to use drugs, or join gangs that encourage criminal behavior. Mature adults may sometimes feel pressured to cover up illegal activity at the company where they work, or end up in debt because they are unable to hold back the desire to buy a house or car that they cant afford in an
