2010年12月英语六级全真预测卷及解析(1)

　　Recently, a man who was always in good health, spent a week in bed with severe flu. The previous week, he and his wife separated. 【30】It seems his unusual ill health was connected with his bad feeling.

　　Humans have long been aware that our health is linked with our thought, emotions and relationships. Now science is catching up with our suspicion. A new field of scientific investigation has developed. 【29】It's the study of how our thoughts and feelings work with our immune and nervous systems.

　　There are already researchers at medical schools who are devoted to the study. They are discovering surprising connections between mind and body. One researcher has been working with breast cancer patients. She has been looking at the mental factors in their illness and treatment. 【31】She has discovered that women who did not like to talk about the emotions created by their illness had more chance of dying in five years after treatment. Of a group of 52 patients, 16 women died. All 16 women had said they usually found it difficult to talk to people about their illness. So, simply speaking, it is bad for your health to keep negative feeling inside you. You need to talk about them to your family and friends.

　　Other research shows that stress really can make you sick. People who lead stressful lives are more likely to fall ill with colds and flus and other illnesses. But, if you have lots of good quality relationships with family and friends in your life, then you are less likely to fall ill, even though the circumstance of your life might be difficult.

　　Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you have just heard.

　　30. Why did the man suffer the worst illness in his life?

　　30. 答案B

　　解析：选项表示原因。听力篇章一开始以一名男士为例，他和妻子分居了，随后一周就感冒了，似乎他的病和自己的糟糕感觉有关系。由此可以判断他得病的原因是，他情绪不好。

　　31. What is the difference between the breast cancer patients according to the passage?

　　31. 答案C

　　解析：选项关于哪一类人活得久一点。听力篇章中间讲到一个实验，其结论是不喜欢和家人讨论病情以及自己感受的人，接受治疗后五年内死的可能性更大，接着列举了一些数字。从中可以判断，喜欢讨论自己病情以及感受的人可以活更长时间。
