57、ings. This is why the smell of baking bread can destroy the best intentions of a dieter.Smell, which dictates the unbelievable complexity of food tastes, has always been the least understood of our senses. Our noses are able to detect up to 10,000 distinct smells. Our ability to smell and taste this
58、 extremely large range of smells is controlled by something like 1,000 genes (基因), which make up an amazing 3% of the human genome. Researchers Richard Axel and Linda Buck were together awarded a Nobel Prize in 2004 for their ground-breaking research on the nature of this extraordinary sense. These
59、two scientists were the first to describe the family of 1,000 olfactory (嗅觉) genes and to explain how our olfactory system works.According to one study in the research review, smelling fresh pizza or even the packaging of fast foods can be enough to make drivers feel impatient with other road users.
60、 They are then more likely to speed and experience uncontrollable anger on roads. The most reasonable explanation is that these can all make drivers feel hungry, and therefore desperate to satisfy their appetites.In contrast, the smells of peppermint and cinnamon were shown to improve concentration
61、levels as well as reduce drivers impatience. Similarly, the smells of lemon and coffee appeared to promote clear thinking and mental focus.However, the way genes regulate smell differs from person to person. A study by researchers in Israel has identified at least 50 olfactory genes which are switch

Recent studies have found, among other things, that the smell of foods li
68、ke pizza can cause uncontrollable anger in drivers on roads.可知,研究人员继续证明我们的嗅觉背后的力量。最近的研究发现,比萨等食物的味道会让道路上的司机无法控制自己的愤怒情绪。以及全文的具体说明可知,本文主要介绍了人类的嗅觉和它的影响。故选B。DCamaraderie over CompetenceThe importance of liking people is the subject of an article in the Harvard Business Review, which has carried out an ex
69、periment to find out who wed rather work with. Hardly surprisingly, the people we want most as our workmates are both: brilliant at their jobs and delightful human beings. And the people we want least are both unpleasant and useless. More interestingly, the authors found that, given the choice betwe
70、en working with lovable fools and competent jerks (性情古怪的人), we irresistibly choose the former. Anyway, who likes those stupid men who annoy or hurt other people? We might insist that competence matters more, but our behavior shows we stay close to the people we like and sharing information with them
71、.What companies should therefore do is get people to like each other more. The trick here is apparently to make sure staffs come across each other as often as possible during the day. They also should be sent on bonding courses and so on to encourage friendliness and break down displeasure. However,
72、 more outdoor-activity weekends and shared coffee machines inspire no confidence at all.The reality is that people either like each other or they dont. You cant force it. Possibly you can make offices friendlier by tolerating a lot of chat, but there is a productivity cost to that. In my experience,
73、 the question of lovable fool against competent jerk may not be the right one. The two are interrelated: we tend not to like our workmates when they are completely hopeless. I was once quite friendly with a woman whom I later worked with. I found her to be so outstandingly bad at her job that I lost
74、 respect for her and ended up not really liking her at all. Then is there anything that companies should be doing about it?By far the most effective strategy would be to hire people who are all pretty much the same, given that similarity is one of the main determinants of whether we like each other.
75、 I think this is a pretty good idea, but no one dares recommend this anymore without offending the diversity lobby group. There is only one acceptable view on this subject: teams of similar people are bad because they stop creativity. This may be true, though I have never seen any conclusive proof o
76、f it.Not only do we like similar people, we like people who like us. So if companies want to promote more liking, they should encourage a culture where we are all nice to each other. The trouble is that this needs to be done with some skill.42. According to the research, which kind of colleagues wou
77、ld most people tend to choose?A. Nice but unintelligent.B. Creative but unattractive.C. Competent but unfriendly.D. Humorous but unambitious.43.
