26、 What kinds of rooms are your favorite spots for studying? We are going to guess that they are probably not painted bright red or yellow. But maybe they should be. Imagine. You are suddenly asked to prepare for an exam. You have two rooms to choose from. One is a pale blue, and the other is a bright red. Which one do you settle into for study? Is one going to get your brain fired up for learning, or let you relax into the best state of concentration?
According to researchers at Curtin University in Australia, it might be best to camp out in the bright red room when you are looking to store information. It might sound strange, since we often think of pale rooms — soft blues or light greens — are relaxing. And they seem to be: The Curtin University study showed that pale colors made participants feel more relaxed and calm, while bright colors increased heart rate. But calming and relaxing, it turns out, may not always be the best environment for deep concentration or knowledge gaining. Reading comprehension was much better in the bright rooms than in the pale rooms. Although participants reported that they generally preferred the pale rooms to study in as an approach to relax into work, the researchers saw just the opposite — that the bright - colored rooms seemed to lead to greater concentration.
While this might seem only surprising, the findings get into a rather controversial (有争议的) area of psychological study. The Yerkes — Dodson Law says that a little bit of stress is good for achieving best performance, while too much stress negatively affects it. The higher heart rate and the reports of the bright colors creating a heavy atmosphere might just suggest that a little stress was good for the brain.
【1】What is the common idea mentioned in the first paragraph?
A.Pale colors appeal to all tastes.
B.Few people like bright red or yellow.
C.Light — colored rooms make you feel nervous.
D.Bright — colored rooms are not good for studying.
【2】What might directly affect the research results according to Para 2?
A.How participants react to colors. B.Participants’ preferences in colors.
C.What participants read in the rooms. D.Time participants spent in the rooms.
【3】What can be concluded from the study by Curtin University?
A.Higher stress leads to better performance.
B.Most people know how to make use of colors.
C.Stress is necessary when you want to concentrate.
D.Being relaxed is very important for people studying.
【4】What’s the main idea of the text?
A.Findings about people’s favourite room colors.
B.Room colors can affect one’s academic performance.
C.Bright — colored rooms can create a heavy atmosphere.
D.Light — colored rooms help people feel relaxed into work.

29、For every one article on some positive aspect, some positive element of life, wellbeing, satisfaction, joy, happiness, you get 21 articles on depression, anxiety and so on. Ratio of 21 to 1. Studies focus primarily on what doesn't work. And this is not a new phenomenon. The science of psychology（心理）has been far more successful on the negative than on the positive side. It has revealed to us much more about man's shortcomings, his illnesses, but little about his potentialities, his virtues or his psychological height. We study a lot of depression and anxiety, misjudgments and errors, very much focusing on this aspect and very little on the positive. If you had a person who 21 hours in a day was depressed and one hour in a day felt good or one day feeling good and then 21 days feeling anxious and depressed, you would say that this person would need help. And I think psychology needs help.
Today depression is 10 times higher than it was in 1960. Now part of it is because there's more awareness, because we measure better. But that's not all. It's also simply because objectively there's more depression. The average age for depression today is less than 15. Kids at very young age are introduced to the "information highway". And very often, they are not prepared, not able to deal with it in an effective way. So when we look at this data, we say we do need more research to help people overcome depression or anxiety. And there seems nothing wrong about that.
According to the studies, 47% Harvard students over the past year have experienced depression to the point of not functioning. So they couldn't leave home. They were really struggling to just basically get through the day. Now this is not unique to United States. We have a global epidemic here. And once again going back: Is the 21:1 ratio good? How can we even think about studying happiness and well-being and love and joy?
What I'm going to argue for is that we do need to also focus on the positive. I am going to talk about three reasons why we should do that. The first reason is that it is important to focus or what works, because what works or what we focus on rather creates reality. If we focus on what is working, we'll have more working in our world, more working in ourselves, more working in our relationships. The second reason why positive psychology as an independent field of study is important is that being happy is not just the negative statement of depression. It doesn't mean just getting rid of depression or anxiety that I am experiencing so I spontaneously（自然而然）become happy. That's not the case. That's not how it works. And finally, prevention, which is the most effective way of preventing hardship, is actually realized by focusing on and cultivating the positive. So for these three reasons, we need positive psychology.
【1】By using the ratio of 21 to 1, the author means in fact that__________.
A．on an average a person is depressed 21 hours a day and feels good one hour
B．most articles and studies focus primarily on what goes wrong
C．the science of psychology has revealed human's nature
D．nearly half of Harvard and nationwide students suffer from depression
【2】Which is the main reason why depression is 10 times higher than it was in 1960?
A．Simply because people are more aware and we measure better
B．Mainly because teenagers are too weak to fight it.
C．Objectively because there's more depression in the present world.
D．Possibly because we lack effective way to deal with depression.
【3】What is NOT closely related to positive psychology?
A．Preventing depression or anxiety by focusing on and cultivating the positive feelings.
B．Offering various ways of overcoming the negative feelings.
C．Focusing on what is working to have more working in our life.
D．Being happy is not equal to avoiding being unhappy.
【4】What might the author agree with in this article?
A．It is essential for our research to focus more on the bright side
B．There is no need for the science of psychology to deal with the negative side.
C．The conflict between the negative psychology and positive one can't be avoided.
D．We have to remove depression completely in order to be happy.
