The baby monkey is much more developed at birth than the human baby. Almost from the moment it is born, the baby monkey can move around and hold tightly to its mother. During the first few days of its life the baby will approach and hold onto almost any large, warm, and soft object in its environment, particularly if that object also gives it milk. After a week or so, however, the baby monkey begins to avoid newcomers and focuses its attentions on “mother”—the real mother or the mother-substitute(母亲替代物).
During the first two weeks of its life warmth is perhaps the most important psychological(心理的)thing that a monkey mother has to give to its baby. The Harlows, a couple who are both psychologists, discovered this fact by offering baby monkeys a choice of two types of mother-substitutes——one covered with cloth and one made of bare wire. If the two artificial mothers were both the same temperature, the little monkeys always preferred the cloth mother. However, if the wire model was heated, while the cloth model was cool, for the first two weeks after birth the baby monkeys picked the warm wire mother-substitutes as their favorites. Thereafter they switched and spent most of their time on the more comfortable cloth mother.
Why is cloth preferable to bare wire? Something that the Harlows called contact(接触)comfort seems to be the answer, and a most powerful influence it is. Baby monkeys spend much of their time rubbing against their mothers’ skins, putting themselves in as close contact with the parent as they can. Whenever the young animal is frightened, disturbed, or annoyed, it typically rushes to its mother and rubs itself against her body. Wire doesn’t “rub” as well as does soft cloth. Prolonged(长时间的)“contact comfort”with a cloth mother appears to give the babies confidence and is much more rewarding to them than is either warmth or milk.
According to the Harlows, the basic quality of a baby’s love for its mother is trust. If the baby is put into an unfamiliar playroom without its mother, the baby ignores the toys no matter how interesting they might be. It screams in terror and curls up into a furry little ball. If its cloth mother is now introduced into the playroom, the baby rushes to it and holds onto it for dear life. After a few minutes of contact comfort, it obviously begins to feel more secure. It then climbs down from the mother-substitute and begins to explore the toys, but often rushes back for a deep embrace(拥抱)as if to make sure that its mother is still there and that all is well. Bit by bit its fears of the new environment are gone and it spends more and more time playing with the toys and less time holding onto “its mother.”
1. Psychologically, what does the baby monkey desire most during the first two weeks of its life?
A. Warmth B. Milk C. Contact D. Trust
2. After the first two weeks of their life, baby monkeys prefer the cloth mother to the wire mother because the former is________.
A. larger in size
B. closer to them
C. less frightening and less disturbing
D. more comfortable to rub against
3. What does the baby monkey probably gain from prolonged “contact comfort”?
A. Attention B. Softness C. Confidence D. Interest
4. It can be inferred that when the baby monkey feels secure, ________.
A.it frequently rushes back for a deep embrace when exploring the toys
B.it spends more time screaming to get rewards
C.it is less attracted to the toys though they are interesting
D.it cares less about whether its mother is still around
5. The main purpose of the passage is to________
A. give the reasons for the experiment
B. present the findings of the experiment
C. introduce the method of the experiment
D. describe the process of the experiment
B
Fear may be felt in the heart as well as in the head, according to a study that has found a link between the cycles of a beating heart and the chance of someone feeling fear.
Tests on healthy volunteers found that they were more likely to feel a sense of fear at the moment when their hearts are contracting(收缩)and pumping blood around their bodies, compared with the point when the heartbeat is relaxed. Scientists say the results suggest that the heart is able to influence how the brain responds to a fearful event, depending on which point it is at in its regular cycle of contraction and relaxation.
Sarah Garfinkel at the Brighton and Sussex Medical School said: “Our study shows for the first time that the way in which we deal with fear is different depending on when we see fearful pictures in relation to our heart.”
The study tested 20 healthy volunteers on their reactions to fear as they were shown pictures of fearful faces. Dr Garfinkel said, “The study showed that fearful faces are better noticed when the heart is pumping than when it is relaxed. Thus our hearts can also affect what we see and what we don’t see—and guide whether we see fear.”
To further understand this relationship, the scientists also used a brain scanner(扫描仪)to show how the brain influences the way the heart changes a person’s feeling of fear.
“We have found an important mechanism by which the heart and brain ‘speak’ to each other to change our feelings and reduce fear,” Dr Garfinkel said.
“We hope that by increasing our understanding about how fear is dealt with and ways that it could be reduced, we may be able to develop more successful treatments for anxiety disorders, and also for those who may be suffering from serious stress disorder.”
1. What is the finding of the study?
A. One’s heart affects how he feels fear.
B. Fear is a result of one’s relaxed heartbeat.
C. Fear has something to do with one’s health.
D. One’s fast heartbeats are likely to cause fear.
2. The study was carried out by analyzing________.
A. volunteers’ heartbeats when they saw terrible pictures
B. the time volunteers saw fearful pictures and their health conditions
C. volunteers’ reactions to horrible pictures and data from their brain scans
D. different pictures shown to volunteers and their heart-brain communication
3. Which of the following is closest in meaning to “mechanism” in Paragraph 6?
A. Order.
B. System.
C. Machine.
D. Treatment.
4. This study may contribute to________.
A. treating anxiety and stress better
B. explaining the cycle of fear and anxiety
C. finding the key to the heart-brain communication
D. understanding different fears in our hearts and heads

要求学生掌握本单元的重点语法----动词的-ing形式作定语和状语并能熟练运用相关语法知识解决相应类型的题。
一、动词的-ing形式由“动词原形+ing形式”构成,它既是现在分词形式,也是动名词形式。v-ing能在句中作主语、宾语、表语、定语、宾语补足语和状语,但不能单独作谓语。其时态和语态的变化为
时态 语态
及物动词(do)
不及物动词(go)
主动
被动
一般时
doing
being done
going
完成时
having done
having been done
having gone
二、动词-ing形式的作用
1.动词-ing形式作定语
E.g. The sleeping baby looks very beautiful. (前置定语)这位正在睡觉的婴儿看起来太漂亮了。
E.g. The man sitting in the car is waiting for his daughter.
(后置定语)坐在车里的男子正在等他的女儿。
E.g. The law being carried out is to ban drunken driving.(后置定语,强调正在被执行的法律)
正在执行中的这则法律旨在禁止酒后驾驶。
名师点拨
(1)现在分词短语作定语时通常后置,而单个的分词作定语时可置于被修饰词的前面,也可置于被修饰词的后面。
(2)现在分词的完成时的主动及被动形式均不作后置定语。
2.动词-ing形式作状语。

在办公室工作时,这位职员听到街上发出了爆炸声。
E.g. Having finished her homework, the girl was busy with the thing she likes.
完成了家庭作业,女孩就忙于做她喜欢做的事情。
名师点拨
动词-ing形式一般式常表示该动作与句子谓语动作同时发生,而动词-ing形式的完成式则表示该动作发生在谓语动作之前。
(2)作原因状语。
E.g. Lacking enough money, they had to give up the plan.
由于缺乏足够的资金,他们只好放弃了这项计划。
(3)作条件状语。
E.g. Getting the chance to study abroad, he will try his best to improve himself.

【巧学助记】
分词短语记忆口诀
分词作状语,主语是问题;逗号前后两动作,共用一主语;主语找出后,再来判关系;主动用-ing,被动用-ed;having done表先后,千万要牢记
例1.(2014福建泉州期中)He waited at the gate of the hotel all the time, ______to run into his favorite
pop singer.
A. hoping B. to hope C. having hoped D. hoped
解析:根据句意“他一直等在宾馆的门口,希望巧遇他最喜欢的流行歌手。”此处非谓语动词表示
的动作与句子谓语动词表示的动作相伴随着发生,故用现在分词作伴随状语。
答案:A。
例 2.(2014大纲全国)Today there are more airplanes_______ more people than ever before in the skies.
A. carry B. carrying C. carried D. to be carrying
解析:根据句意“现在比以前有有更多的飞机运送乘客。”考查现在分词作定语。此处airplane和
carrying之间是主动关系,故用现在分词作定语。
答案:B。
例3.(2014福建)________the past year as an exchange student in Hong Kong, Linda appears more mature than those of her age.
A. Spending B. Spent C. Having spent D. To spend
解析:根据句意“由于Linda过去几年在香港作交换留学生,所以她看起来比她的实际年龄更成熟。”
“花费”和其逻辑主语“Linda”之间是主动关系,故用现在分词作原因状语。且“花费”的动作明显早于“看起来成熟”这个动作。表示发生在谓语动作之前的动作,用现在分词的完成时。
答案:C。
例4.(2014山东济宁期中)______money, his parents couldn’t send him to university.
A. Lacked B. Lacking of C. Lacked in D. Lacking
解析:根据句意“由于缺少钱,他父亲不能送他去上大学。”此处非谓语动词的逻辑主语为his parents,故用现在分词简化句子,lack为及物动词
答案:D。
例5.(2014辽宁锦州月考)Titanic 3D moved all audience to tears once again, ________ our attention to Cameron’s films and the definition of true love.
A. turning B.to turn C. turned D. being turned
解析:根据句意“3D版的泰坦尼克号又一次感动了所有的观众,让我们的注意力转向了卡梅隆的电影以及真爱的定义上了。”本题中的动词turn与句子主语Titanic 3D构成逻辑上的主动关系,故使用turning做状语。
答案:A。

The baby monkey is much more developed at birth than the human baby. Almost from the moment it is born, the baby monkey can move around and hold tightly to its mother. During the first few days of its life the baby will approach and hold onto almost any large, warm, and soft object in its environment, particularly if that object also gives it milk. After a week or so, however, the baby monkey begins to avoid newcomers and focuses its attentions on “mother”—the real mother or the mother-substitute(母亲替代物).
During the first two weeks of its life warmth is perhaps the most important psychological(心理的)thing that a monkey mother has to give to its baby. The Harlows, a couple who are both psychologists, discovered this fact by offering baby monkeys a choice of two types of mother-substitutes——one covered with cloth and one made of bare wire. If the two artificial mothers were both the same temperature, the little monkeys always preferred the cloth mother. However, if the wire model was heated, while the cloth model was cool, for the first two weeks after birth the baby monkeys picked the warm wire mother-substitutes as their favorites. Thereafter they switched and spent most of their time on the more comfortable cloth mother.
Why is cloth preferable to bare wire? Something that the Harlows called contact(接触)comfort seems to be the answer, and a most powerful influence it is. Baby monkeys spend much of their time rubbing against their mothers’ skins, putting themselves in as close contact with the parent as they can. Whenever the young animal is frightened, disturbed, or annoyed, it typically rushes to its mother and rubs itself against her body. Wire doesn’t “rub” as well as does soft cloth. Prolonged(长时间的)“contact comfort”with a cloth mother appears to give the babies confidence and is much more rewarding to them than is either warmth or milk.
According to the Harlows, the basic quality of a baby’s love for its mother is trust. If the baby is put into an unfamiliar playroom without its mother, the baby ignores the toys no matter how interesting they might be. It screams in terror and curls up into a furry little ball. If its cloth mother is now introduced into the playroom, the baby rushes to it and holds onto it for dear life. After a few minutes of contact comfort, it obviously begins to feel more secure. It then climbs down from the mother-substitute and begins to explore the toys, but often rushes back for a deep embrace(拥抱)as if to make sure that its mother is still there and that all is well. Bit by bit its fears of the new environment are gone and it spends more and more time playing with the toys and less time holding onto “its mother.”
1. Psychologically, what does the baby monkey desire most during the first two weeks of its life?
A. Warmth B. Milk C. Contact D. Trust
2. After the first two weeks of their life, baby monkeys prefer the cloth mother to the wire mother because the former is________.

A. Attention B. Softness C. Confidence D. Interest
4. It can be inferred that when the baby monkey feels secure, ________.
A.it frequently rushes back for a deep embrace when exploring the toys
B.it spends more time screaming to get rewards
C.it is less attracted to the toys though they are interesting
D.it cares less about whether its mother is still around

Fear may be felt in the heart as well as in the head, according to a study that has found a link between the cycles of a beating heart and the chance of someone feeling fear.
Tests on healthy volunteers found that they were more likely to feel a sense of fear at the moment when their hearts are contracting(收缩)and pumping blood around their bodies, compared with the point when the heartbeat is relaxed. Scientists say the results suggest that the heart is able to influence how the brain responds to a fearful event, depending on which point it is at in its regular cycle of contraction and relaxation.
Sarah Garfinkel at the Brighton and Sussex Medical School said: “Our study shows for the first time that the way in which we deal with fear is different depending on when we see fearful pictures in relation to our heart.”
The study tested 20 healthy volunteers on their reactions to fear as they were shown pictures of fearful faces. Dr Garfinkel said, “The study showed that fearful faces are better noticed when the heart is pumping than when it is relaxed. Thus our hearts can also affect what we see and what we don’t see—and guide whether we see fear.”
To further understand this relationship, the scientists also used a brain scanner(扫描仪)to show how the brain influences the way the heart changes a person’s feeling of fear.
“We have found an important mechanism by which the heart and brain ‘speak’ to each other to change our feelings and reduce fear,” Dr Garfinkel said.
“We hope that by increasing our understanding about how fear is dealt with and ways that it could be reduced, we may be able to develop more successful treatments for anxiety disorders, and also for those who may be suffering from serious stress disorder.”
