第2题:
A moment's drilling by the dentist may make us nervous and upset. Many of us cannot stand pain.
To avoid the pain of a drilling that may last perhaps a minute or two, we demand the "needle"— a shot of novocaine (奴佛卡因) -that deadens the nerves around the tooth.
Now it' s true that the human body has developed its millions of nerves to be highly aware of what goes on both inside and outside of it. This helps us adjust to the world. Without our nerves—and our brain, which is a bundle of nerves— we wouldn't know what's happening. But we pay for our sensitivity. We can feel pain when the slightest thing is wrong with any part of our body. The history of torture is based on the human body being open to pain.
But there is a way to handle pain. Look at the Indian fakir(行僧) who sits on a bed of nails. Fakirs can put a needle right through an arm, and feel no pain; This ability that some humans have developed to handle pain should give us ideas about how the mind can deal with pain.
The big thing in withstanding pain is our attitude toward it. If the dentist says, "This will hurt a little, it helps us to accept the pain. By staying relaxed,' and by treating the pain as an interesting sensation, we' can handle the pain without falling apart. After all; although pain is an unpleasant sensation, it is still a sensation, and sensations are the stuff of life.
26. The passage is mainly about______.
A) how to stiffer pain
B) how to avoid pain
C) how to handle pain
D) how to stop pain

Humans are naturally drawn to other life forms and the worlds outside of our own。We take delight in the existence of creatures and even whole societies Beyond our everyday lives.
This sense of wonder is universal. Look at the efforts that scientists(幻想)literature or movies like the lord of the rings. This sense of wonder draws us to each other,to the world around us ,and to the world of make-believe.but have we gone so far in creating worlds of fantasy that we are missing the pleasure of other worlds that already exist all around us?
Human beings,as biologists have suggested,possess an inborn desire to connect with and understand other life forms,However, people,especially in big eities,often lead rather isolated lives,In a study of British schoolchildren,it was found that children by age eight were much more familiar with characters from television shows and video games than common wildlife.without modem technology,a small Pond could be an amazing world filled with strange and beautiful plants,insects,birds,and animals 。when we lack meaning(交互)with the world around us,and somethings even with our families and friends,we seek to understand and communicate with things that exist only in our imaginations or on a computer screen。
