They asked 404 healthy adults to keep a diary for two weeks. Every evening, the volunteers recorded two things: how many hugs they had received that day, and how they felt. / Then the researchers did something unpleasant but necessary. They put a common cold virus into the volunteers' noses and watched what happened. / The result was clear. People who were hugged more often were less likely to become ill, and those who did become ill had milder symptoms. The effect held even when the researchers allowed for age, diet and personality. / The explanation is not magic. Touch lowers cortisol, one of the main stress hormones, and stress is hard on the immune system. A hug also involves another person, and feeling supported changes how the body responds. / The study has limits. It was one study, in one country, and a cold is not a life. But it is a useful reminder that the body does not separate the mind from the people around it. / “We tend to think of health as a private project,” the lead researcher said. “It is not.” 任务一：单项选择 1.How long did the volunteers keep a diary? A.Two weeks. B.Two months. C.Four days. D.One year. 2.What did the researchers put into the volunteers' noses? A.A common cold virus. B.Salt water. C.A medicine. D.Nothing. 任务二：判断正误(T/F) 3.People who were hugged more often were less likely to become ill. (　　) 4.The researcher says health is a private project. (　　) 任务三：简答 5.Why does touch help the immune system, according to the passage? _______________________________________________________________________________________________ Passage2（课外同源：静止的脸） 　　In 1975, a psychologist named Edward Tronick filmed a simple and disturbing experiment. A mother sits in front of her baby of about one year. They play. The baby points, the mother answers, and for a few seconds the two of them are a single system. / Then the mother is asked to do something unnatural: she keeps her face still. She looks at the baby, but she does not answer. / The baby tries everything. It smiles, points, makes a noise, reaches up. Nothing comes back. Within two minutes the baby turns away, cries, and its heart rate rises. When the mother finally responds, the baby takes a long time to trust her again. / Tronick called it the still-face experiment. It has been repeated in dozens of countries with the same result. Babies are not looking for food or a toy in that moment. They are looking for an answer. / The lesson is not that parents must be perfect. In the same films, ordinary mothers miss their baby's signals about seventy percent of the time, and the babies are fine, because the repair is quick. / What damages a child is not the missed moment. It is the face that never comes back. 任务一：单项选择 1.What is the mother asked to do? A.Keep her face still. B.Leave the room. C.Speak loudly. D.Take a photograph. 2.What do ordinary mothers do about seventy percent of the time? A.Miss their baby's signals. B.Ignore their baby completely. C.Play for too long. D.Speak too quietly. 任务二：判断正误(T/F) 3.The experiment has been repeated in dozens of countries with the same result. (　　) 4.The passage says parents must be perfect. (　　) 任务三：简答 5.What damages a child, according to the passage? _______________________________________________________________________________________________ 任务四：单元微写作 科学课要办“身体与情感”展板。请写一段说明文字，不少于6句话。请写清一个研究发现、它的解释和一条实用建议，并用上 the results show 和 make a difference。 _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ 参考答案 夯实基础 一、单词汉译英 1.hormone 2.oxytocin 3.cortisol 4.stress 5.immune 6.heart 7.blood pressure 8.experiment 9.volunteer 10.result 11.loneliness 12.touch 二、短语汉译英 1.lower blood pressure 2.release 3.immune system 4.a study 5.the results show 6.compared with 7.to some extent 8.make a difference 三、词形变换 1.stressful 2.powerful 3.careful 4.effective 5.emotional 能力进阶 一、单句填空 1.releases 2.tested 3.fall 4.didn't know 5.has felt 二、根据汉语意思完成句子 1.lower 2.release 3.show 4.To; extent 5.for; heart 三、句型转换 1.How; long 2.How; clear 3.Did; test 4.was; it 5.is; released 四、选词填空 1.hormone 2.stress 3.immune 4.volunteer 5.touch 五、情景补全对话 答案：1.A 2.D 3.B 4.C 5.E；多余项：F 拓展提高 Passage1 任务一：1.A 2.A 任务二：3.T 4.F 任务三简答：5.Because it lowers cortisol, one of the main stress hormones.

Four hundred and four adults kept a diary of their hugs for two weeks, and then researchers gave them a cold virus. The people who were hugged more often became ill less often, and when they did become ill, their symptoms were milder. The explanation is chemical: touch lowers cortisol, and too much cortisol weakens the immune system. This does not mean that a hug cures a cold, and it does not mean that people who live alone are unhealthy. But small things make a difference: a hand on the shoulder before an exam, twenty seconds instead of two, or simply sitting next to someone at lunch. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
