8、t B. fax C. phone D. Email B Does happiness have a scent? When someone is happy, can you smell it? You can usually tell when someone is happy based on seeing them smile, hearing them laugh or perhaps from receiving a big hug. But can you also smell their happiness? Surprising new research suggests t

9、hat happiness does indeed have a scent, and that the experience of happiness can be transmitted through smell, reports Phys.org. For the study, 12 young men were shown videos meant to bring about a variety of emotions while researchers gathered sweat samples from them. All of the men were healthy an

10、d none of them were drug users or smokers, and all were asked to abstain from drinking or eating smelly foods during the study period. Those sweat samples were then given to 36 equally healthy young women to smell, while researchers monitored their reactions. Only women were selected to smell the sa

11、mples, apparently because previous research has shown that women have a better sense of smell than men and are also more sensitive to emotional signalingthough its unclear why only men were chosen to produce the scents. Researchers found that the behavior of the women after smelling the scentspartic

12、ularly their facial expressionsindicated a relationship between the emotional states of the men who produced the sweat and the women who sniffed them. “Human sweat produced when a person is happy brings about a state similar to happiness in somebody who breathes this smell,” said study co-author Gun

13、 Semin, a professor at Koc University in Turkey. This is a fascinating finding because it not only means that happiness does have a scent, but that the scent is capable of transmitting the emotion to others. The study also found that other emotions, such as fear, seem to carry a scent too. This ensu

14、res previous research suggesting that some negative emotions have a smell, but it is the first time this has proved to be true of positive feelings. Researchers have yet to isolate(分离) exactly what the chemical pound for the happiness smell is, but you might imagine what the potential applications f

15、or such a finding could be. Happiness perfumes, for instance, could be invented. Scent therapies（香味疗法）could also be developed to help people through depression or anxiety. Perhaps the most surprising result of the study, however, is our broadened understanding of how emotions get municated, and also

16、 how our own emotions are potentially managed through our social context and the emotional states of those around us. 5. What is the main finding of the new research? A. Pleasant feelings can be smelt out. B. Negative emotions have a smell. C. Men produce more sweats. D. Women have a better sense of

17、 smell.6. The underlined part “abstain from” in Paragraph 3 probably means _. A.continue B. practice C. avoid D. try7. What is the application value of the new research? A. Perfumes could help people understand each other. B. Some smells could be created to improve our appearance. C. Perfumes could

18、be produced to cure physical diseases. D. Some smells could be developed to better our mood.8. We can learn from the last paragraph that . A. happiness es from a scent of sweat B.social surroundings can influence our emotions C. people need more emotional munication D. positive energy can deepen und

19、erstanding cConventional wisdom is a major barrier to innovation(创新) that threatens the survival of panies everywhere. Its based on the assumption that old ideas will always work, so they shouldnt be challenged. While this may be a valid assumption in situations that dont change, its unlikely to hol

20、d true in a changing situation. In todays rapid changing global environment, old methods often dont work, and stubbornly using them can lead to major problems.Most people seem to agree with conventional wisdom because it gives one a false sense of security. If everyone else believes it, then it must

21、 be true. Individuals who use conventional wisdom are certain that they are right, and being right is good. They want to continue using old ideas rather than take risks with changes that might not work. In 1977, Ken Olsen, co-founder and CEO of Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC), stated “There is n

22、o reason for any individual to have a puter in his home.” Despite being a dominant leader in the puter industry, DEC no longer exists.People seem to forget that since innovation is a change, there can be no innovation without change. Unfortunately, conventional wisdom prevents leaders, followers and

23、 panies from changing and therefore innovating. If panies dont innovate, but their petitors do, the future is likely to be problematic. Breaking from conventional wisdom has led to many of the most innovative panies and products in history across many industries, so it has a powerful effect on busin

24、ess success.Ted Turner (founder of CNN) knew little, if anything, about the news business, but he knew it was inconvenient to watch news only at the dinner hour, as was mon before CNN. Turners solution was to create a cable channel dedicated to news 24 hours a day. The news establishment reflected c

25、onventional wisdom at the time, and predicted his idea would fail because no one wanted to watch the news all day. However, it doesnt take a rocket scientist to understand that viewers dont have to watch the news all day for the CNN to work. Viewers just have to watch when they want to get informati

26、on. Due to conventional thinking, the critics failed to recognize the opportunity that was clear to Ted. They assumed that only what was familiar to them could work in the future.Conventional wisdom prevents creativity, flexibility and risk-taking, so unconventional leaders enthusiastically break fr

27、om it. To survive, thrive and maintain petitive advantage, panies must be flexible when reacting to change. 9. DEC has disappeared probably because _. A. the CEO stuck to the conventional ideas B. the leaders lacked the sense of security C.the consumers didnt like its products D. the employees took

28、many risks with changes10. The founding of CNN is used as an example to prove _. A. missing opportunities could lead to failure B. conventional wisdom influences business success C. watching news at the dinner hour is convenient D. changing could contribute to business success11. What does the under

29、lined part probably mean? A. Rocket scientists can ensure the CNN works properly. B. Its easy to know people neednt watch the news all the time C. Its necessary to understand when people watch the news. D. Most of the viewers dont like to watch the news at work.12. The passage is mainly written to t

30、ell us that _. A.conventional wisdom limits innovation B. opportunities lead to business success C. old methods are changing with time D. successful panies need wise leaders D How Super Are Supermarkets? Buying e weeks groceries is tiring. You want to get it over and done with quickly, so you head f

31、or the nearest supermarket, you find everything you need under one roof, and you feel glad that those days of going in and out of different shops in the high street are over. Supermarkets seem to be a big plus. There is a downside, though. In the UK 90% of all the food people consume is bought at 5

32、different supermarket chains. This makes these panies extremely powerful, which lets them use their huge buying power to squeeze small suppliers to get the best deal. Milk is a good example. Supermarkets like to use things like milk, which is the top of almost everyones shopping list to attract cust

33、omers. To offer the lowest price possible to the consumer, the supermarkets force dairy farmers to sell milk at less than the cost of production. Supermarkets guarantee their good profits while farmers are left struggling to make ends meet, and the taxpayer pays to support the system without even kn

34、owing it. It would be nice if local grocers supported local agriculture. But for the big supermarkets this just doesnt make sense. Supermarkets dont want little farmers thinking they can decide prices. So supermarkets have started a global search for the cheapest possible agricultural produce. In ma

35、ny supermarkets it is difficult to find anything which is produced locally. UK farmers used to grow a lot of apples. Not anymore. In 1999 36% of apples were imported. By xx the figure had risen to 80% and the domestic production of apples had fallen by two thirds. The consumer might just be happy to

36、 get a reasonably priced meal made up of foods from Thailand, Spain, Italy and Zambia, but we should also bear in mind the Influence on local producers.Then theres packaging. Supermarkets like everything to be packed and wrapped so it can be piled neatly on shelves. Supermarkets produce nearly 10 mi

37、llion tons of waste packaging in the UK every year, of which less 5%is recycled. Some supermarkets make sure that large recycling bins are obvious in their car parks, showing that they are environment-friendly. But that is just an image. When a new supermarket is planned there are claims about the n

38、umber of new jobs that will be created. Unfortunately, the number of jobs lost in the area is larger than the number of new positions in the supermarket. On average each new supermarket leads to the loss of 276 jobs. However, the modern world is all about shopping, and the freedom to buy whatever yo

39、u what, so it would be impossible to stop people shopping at some particular kind of shop. But some measures do need to be taken when small suppliers lose profits, local producers suffer, sea levels rise and jobs are lost, anyway, we cant just care about a free car park and special offers.13.The aut
