It was once thought that only time could mend a broken heart, but now scientists think taking a couple of aspirin might be the best way to get over a break-up.
Previous studies have shown that people experience feelings of romantic rejection (失恋) in the same way that they experience physical pain. And Psychology Professor Water Michel, of Columbia University, also believes that the psychological pain of ending a relationship is similar to physical pain, and should be treated like any other injury. “When we speak about rejection experiences in terms of physical pain, it is not just a metaphor – the broken heart and emotional pain really do hurt in a physical way," he said. “When you look at a picture of the one who broke your heart, you experience a pain in a similar area of the brain which is activated when you burn your arm. ”
Research shows that people who are given a simple painkiller, like aspirin, are able to handle feelings of rejection better than those given a placebo (安慰剂) .
‘Take two aspirins and call me next morning’ would be a cold-hearted response to a friend’s late-night report of fresh heartbreak, but it has a solid basis in the research.The aspirin is a kind of _________.

You ought to have fun when you study English. That way, you’ll want to spend more time using the language. One way to do this is to watch amusing TV shows in English.

This passage is probably taken from __________ in a newspaper called 21st Century.
| A．Story land | B．Learning Desk |
| C．Magic World | D．School Time |
In a classroom in any country, the teacher teaches more than art or history or language. He or she teaches what is known as the “hidden course” ---the culture（文化）of that country.
In a society such as the United States, people with different history, culture and language join together and think highly of individualism（个人主义）. Their education as a part of the society（社会）, also think of this greatly. Teachers try to make each student special. Students do not have to remember a lot of information; instead , they work alone and find answers by themselves. There is often a discussion in the classroom. At an early age students learn to have their own ideas. Their education encourages personal thought. The importance is put on how to arrive at an answer and not simply to get the correct answer.
In most Asian countries, the people have the same languages, history, and culture. Perhaps for this reason, the education there shows society’s ideas in group goals rather than individualism. Children in China and Japan often work together and help each other on homework. In the classroom, the teacher often teaches in a public way. He says, and the students listen. There is not much discussion. Instead, the students repeat rules or information that they have been taught in order to keep them in mind.
In many ways these differences come from different educational psychology（教育心理学）. In Western countries teachers make it easier for the students to learn for themselves. In the Eastern, however, teachers often feel that their job is to pass knowledge to students, or the students can’t learn anything.What is the “hidden course” according to the passage?
What do American teachers do in class?
What do Asian teachers do in class?
What’s the main difference in education between the East and the West?
What do you think the proper title for the passage is?
North American black bears are shy animals. They are fearful by nature, and will usually run away if they see or hear people. Because of this, it can be difficult for scientists to learn about these animals.
In order to study black bears, researchers from New Jersey, USA, catch bears and use drugs (毒品) to help them go to sleep. Researchers then work out the size and the weight of the bear, take blood to test for diseases, remove a tooth and take it to the lab to find out its age. From these studies, researchers want to find out how many bears live in New Jersey, how long they live, and how many babies they produce.
But in Minnesota, USA, researchers study bears that are completely awake. The bears know the researchers' voices and they are not afraid of die research team. With the help of a few grapes to keep the bears busy, researchers can touch them to check their hearts, look at their teeth , and do other jobs. Researchers can also walk or sit with bears for hours and make videos to learn about their everyday lives.
