54、) words, swearing.These are all ways of describing words people consider socially unacceptable.But such words are commonly said after a painful injury.So, do they serve a purpose in reducing physical pain? That is what researchers in Britain set out to discover.Psychologist Richard Stephens wondered
55、 if using curse words truly helped people reduce physical pain.To test the theory, he asked more than 60 college students to take part in an experiment.The students were asked to write down five words they might say after injuring their finger.One of the words was chosen as their swear word.The stud
56、ents were also asked to choose five words they might use to describe another object: a table.These words were their control words.The students were then asked to hold their hand in freezing water for as long as they could.While holding their hand underwater, they were asked to repeat a swear word.Th
57、en they repeated the experiment using their control words instead.The researchers found a link between swearing and an increased ability to deal with pain.When students repeated a swear word, they were able to hold their hand longer in the cold water.They said they experienced less pain when using s
58、wear words.The experiment showed that swearing caused peoples heart rate to increase, which permits the body to experience or ignore pain better.It also found interesting differences between men and women.The heart rate of both men and women increased.Yet swearing had a greater effect on women.It is
59、 unclear to scientists exactly how swearing affects physical reactions to pain.Professor Stephens believes that swearing activates a different part of the brain than normal language.He says more experiments on different kinds of pain are needed to better understand the effect of swearing.The researc
60、hers note that swear words have existed for hundreds of years.Their findings offer one reason why the custom of cursing may have continued for so long.Swear words are said with emotion.For that reason, the more someone swears, the less of an effect the words have.60Which of the following can be the

62、d Richard Stephens carry out the experiment?AWith a questionnaire.BThrough some examples.CBy comparison.DWith the help of the Internet.解析：选C。推理判断题。由文中第四段研究者让这些学生把手放入冰水，分别说脏话和说可控制性语言来判断哪种能坚持的时间长。因此Richard Stephens是通过对比的方法来进行实验的。62What does the underlined word “activates” mean?AMakes something active.
63、BChanges something totally.CStops something from happening.DDiscovers something new.解析：选A。词义猜测题。此题的突破口可以根据构词法，由activates的词根active，来找出选项A。再把选项A代入文中，根据上下文的意思来判断，即可。63Which of the following is one of the findings from the experiment?AWomen use more swearing words than men.BThe more someone swears the g
64、reater effect the words have.CMens heart beats faster than womens when using dirty language.DUsing swearing words helps women deal with pain better than men.解析：选D。细节理解题。从文中第六段最后一句“Yet swearing had a greater effect on women.”可知，答案选D。COnly a few people in Toronto have the luck to live within walking d
