health of the mind and the health of the body. From time to time researchers have reported evidence of such a link. One such report now comes from the University of California at San Diego School of Medicine. The study shows that the mental disorder known as depression【C2】______to harm the body's natural defense system against disease. Victims of severe depression generally have a low opinion of themselves. They often lose【C3】______in everything. They seem very sad. They have trouble sleeping. And they generally lose their【C4】______to eat. In most extreme examples, depressed persons may want to kill themselves. The University of California study was【C5】______by Dr. Michael Irwin. He began the study two
years ago at a hospital in the city of Los Angeles. The study involved 37 women, whose husbands were dying of lung cancer. Dr. Irwin studied the women for【C6】______of depression. He took some of their blood both before and after the death of their husbands. He examined the blood for cells that help the body fight disease. These are the substances scientists call natural killer cells, T suppressor cells, and T helper cells. Dr. Irwin then looked for the same【C7】______of cells in the blood of women whose husbands were healthy. Dr. Irwin【C8】______that disease-fighting cells were not very active in the women whose husbands were dying or had just died. The rate of activity was【C9】______than in women whose husbands were healthy. Dr. Irwin also found that the rate of
activity was directly linked to the severity of【C10】______woman's depression over the death of her husband.

force; the first method is that of men, the second of beasts; but as the first method is often insufficient, one must have recourse to(求助,求援)the second. It is, therefore, necessary for a prince to know well how to use both the beast and the man. This was covertly(隐秘地,不公开地)taught to rulers by ancient writers, who relate how Achilles and many others of those ancient princes were given to Chiron the centaur(半人半马的怪物)to be brought up and educated under his discipline. The parable(寓言)of this semi-animal, semi-human teacher is meant to indicate that the one without the other is not durable. A prince, being thus obliged to know well how to act as a beast, must imitate the fox, and the lion, for the lion cannot protect himself from traps, and the fox cannot defend himself from wolves. Those that wish to be only lions do not understand this. Therefore, a prudent(谨慎的)ruler ought not
to keep faith when by doing so it would be against his interest, and when the reasons which made him bind himself no longer exist. If men were all good, this precept(规则)would not be a good one; but as they are bad, and would not keep faith with them. Nor have legitimate grounds ever failed a prince who wished to show colorable excuse for the nonfulfilment of his promise. Of this, one could furnish an infinite number of examples, and show how many times peace has been broken, and how many promises rendered(致
使)worthless, by the faithlessness of princes, and those that have best been a-ble to imitate the fox have succeeded best. But it is necessary to be able to disguise this character well, and to be a great feigner(作假者)and dissembler(伪君子),and men are so simple and so ready to obey present necessities that the one who deceives will always be able to find those who allow themselves to be deceived.

What's the best way for you, as an employer, to deliver bad news to an employee? First of all, you have to break the news yourself, face to face with the recipient(接受者). You can't write memos to tell people they will not get raises this year or that they have made an error or are not performing as well as expected. You have to show them how you feel about the matter and that you are personally sorry and sympathize with them. If you indicate that you are ready to listen to their reactions to your bad news, you will undoubtedly save yourself from their wrath. Above all, you must be ready for an emotional reaction from the recipient of bad news. Give people time to digest your news and to control the emotion they invariably feel. Although it is never easy to break bad news, if you follow these steps, you will at least soften the blow.
35. The author's main idea is that______.
A.bad news is hard to impart
B.all employers have to criticize their
employees
C.there are ways of softening the impact of bad
news
D.people respond emotionally to bad news

A.in the first sentence
B.in the last sentence
C.in the middle of the
paragraph
D.nowhere
37. The author's main idea is supported by______.
A.examples of employers giving bad news
B.a list of reasons for having go break bad news
C.sympathy for both the employer and employee
D.instructions on how to soften the blow of bad
news
New York E-commerce has revolutionized the business world and won't disappear despite investors pulling the plug on many dot-coms, says Marcia H. Flicker, Ph. D. , a Ford-ham University marketing professor.
Venture capitalists are disgusted , with the lack of rectums, she says, " The uncertainty went too far to the investment side in 1998 and 1999, and now it's gone too far the other way investors are so conservative that they are reluctant to invest even in sustainable businesses.
Flicker says pure Internet-based companies will have limited
success. However, click and mortar sites—those that are affiliated with a store and have catalogs in addition to a web address will thrive. This strategy, employed by companies such as Pottery Barman Bam and Eddie Bauer, is working well, she says.
Flicker predicts that web services will start charging fees now that revenues from banner ads are waning. The fee structures will allow some users to pay a higher price to avoid unsolicited advertising. Flicker presented these and other ideas at the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of
Business(AACSB)International 2001 E-Commerce Conference last month. Forehand's Graduate School of Business Administration was established in 1969. Its part-time MBA program is ranked 12th by U. S. News & World Report. The College of Business Administration, founded in 1920, is ranked among the "best buys" in undergraduate education by U. S. News & World Report.
Founded in 1841, Ford ham is New York City's Jesuit University. It has residential campuses in the north Bronx and Manhattan, a graduate center in Tarrytown and the Louis Calder Center Biological Field Station in Armonk, N. Y.

cannot be solved by physical and biological technology alone. What is needed is a technology of behavior, but we have been slow to develop the science from which such a technology might be drawn.
【T1】One difficulty is that almost all of what is called behavioral science continues to trace behavior to states of mind, feelings, traits of character, human nature, and so on. Physics and biology once followed similar practices and advanced only when they discarded them.【T2】The behavioral sciences have been slow to change partly because the explanatory items often seem to be directly observed and partly because other kinds of explanations have been hard to find. The environment is obviously important, but its role has remained obscure. It does not push or pull, it selects, and this function is difficult to discover and analyze.
【T3】The role of natural selection in evolution was formulated only a little more than a hundred years ago, and the selective role of the environment in shaping and maintaining the behavior of the individual is only beginning to be recognized and studied. As the interaction between organism and environment has come to be understood, however, effects once assigned to states of mind, feelings, and traits are beginning to be traced to accessible conditions, and a technology of behavior may therefore become available. It will not solve our problems, however, until it replaces traditional pre-scientific views, and these are strongly entrenched. Freedom and dignity illustrate the difficulty.【T4】They are the possessions of the autonomous(self-governing)man of traditional theory , and they are essential to practices in which a person is held responsible for his conduct and given credit for his achievements. A scientific analysis shifts both the responsibility and the achievement to the environment. It also raises questions concerning " values". Who will use a technology and to what ends?【T5】Until these issues are resolved, a technology of behavior
will continue to be rejected , and with it possibly the only way to solve our problems.
