A study of more than five million books, both fiction and non-fiction, has found a marked decline in the use of emotional words over time．The researchers form the University of Bristol used Google Ngram Viewer, a facility for finding the frequency of terms in scanned books, to search for more than 600 particular words identified as representing anger, dislike, fear, joy, sadness and surprise．
They found that almost all of the categories showed a drop in these “mood words” over time．Only in the category of fear was there an increase in usage．
“It is a steady and continuous decrease,” said Dr Alberto Acerbi．He assumed that the result might be explained by a change in the position occupied by literature, in a crowded media landscape．“One thing could be that in parallel to books the 20th century saw the start of other media．Maybe these media — movies, radio, drama, had more emotional content than books．”
Although both joy and sadness followed the general downwards trend, the research, published in the journal PLOS One, found that they also exhibited another interesting behaviour：the ratio （比率） between the two varied greatly, apparently mirroring historical events．
During the Roaring Twenties the joy-to-sadness ratio reached a peak that would not occur again until before the recent financial crash．But the ratio plunged at the height of the Second World War．Nevertheless, the researchers held a reserved opinion about their claim that their result reflected wider social trends．In the paper, they even argue that the reverse could be true．
“It has been suggested, for example, that it was the suppression （壓抑） of desire in ordinary Elizabethan English life that increased demand for writing ‘filled with romance and sex’… perhaps,” they conclude, “songs and books may not reflect the real population any more than catwalk models reflect the average body．”
1.The word "decline" （paragraph 1） is closest in meaning to_________．
A．increase B．rise C．decrease D．change
2.A study of more than five million books indicated a decrease in “mood words” over time except_______．
A．in the use of the words of historical events
B．in the category of fear
C．in the category of literature
D．in the category of joy
3.What’s the main idea of this passage?
A．A study of emotional words．
B．A study about vocabulary in literature．
C．Reasons for the use of emotional words decreases in literature．
D．A study on increase in the category of fear．

Camilla Broomstick, a missing Camden –area woman, was reported found inside her damaged Chevrolet Malibu Sunday afternoon in a County near Camden New Jersey, at the bottom of an embankment(路堤) off a highway, according to authorities. Her car, turned upside down, was spotted by a passer-by who had stopped to view scenery and noticed something shining and what looked like a body, authorities said. When emergency responders arrived, they found Broomstick alive inside her severely damaged car. The vehicle rested upside down after flying 120 feet off the highway and rolling an additional 200 feet into an aspen woods.
“The crash alone would have killed her,” New Jersey State Trooper Dean Enoch said. “It's surprising that she survived the crash at all, and then to be down there for that amount of days without food or water.”
Earlier Monday, the family released a statement at the hospital thanking emergency responders who rushed Broomstick to the hospital and to the man who found her and notified authorities.
“We sincerely appreciate all the thoughts, prayers and kind gestures from the community during such a hard time for our family,” the statement read. “While we're hopeful of her prognosis(愈后), Camilla was seriously injured and with multiple internal and external injuries. Later this afternoon Camilla will be undergoing surgery here to amputate(截肢) both of her feet. Doctors were not able to save her feet due to the serious injuries. Camilla is in critical but stable condition at this time and has a very long road ahead.”
In the statement, family members mentioned reports that Broomstick wrote a request for help on an umbrella she pushed out the car window. “We cannot comment on that right now because we have not seen the umbrella,” the statement said. Family members also asked that the public respect their privacy.
1.Who found the severely damaged car?
A. The authorities. B. A passer-by.
C. Emergency responders. D. Her families.
2.Where was the damaged car when it was found?
A. 200 feet from the high way. B. 120 feet from the high way.
C. 220 feet from the high way. D. 320 feet from the high way.
3.What can we know from the passage ?
A. Camilla Broomstick was lucky to survive.
B. Camilla Broomstick had a strong will.
C. Camilla Broomstick had a good body.
D. Camilla Broomstick was bad in driving.
4.What is implied in the last two paragraphs?
A. Broomstick’s family are grateful for the doctors.

C. Broomstick’s family are worried about her legs.
D. Broomstick’s family are not willing to be disturbed.

Along with global warming and the Ebola virus，this year, something far less life-and society-threatening also spiraled out of control：email．
It was long ago invented as something to make us more productive．But what productivity expert would ever say that it's a good thing that instead of working，we now“answer email? Or that on some days，I am unwilling to leave my desk to head into a meeting because it means taking my finger off the keyboard and knowing 1 will return to a flood of new messages waiting patiently for my total attention?
Some people struggle for“inbox zero”．But like many people，I now get so much junk mail that if I were to adopt such a goal，I would spend every workday doing nothing but deleting emails．To make sure nothing important gets buried，I have developed an embarrassinglv old system of keeping a pen-and-paper list of emails that need responses on a series of Post-It notes．As far back as 2007，Fred Wilson famously declared “email bankruptcy”．I'm close to doing the Same．
But I may not need to．I predict that 2015 will mark the beginning of the end of emails．Already, some tools have emerged(出現)over the years，like software Freedom which disables access to the Internet for chosen periods of time．Corporations have gradually been adopting stricter email policies：A few years ago，Volkswagen said it would stop sending emails from its servers to company-owned BlackBerrys after the end of its workday．
But this great hope is largely the optimist in me speaking，and I give this prediction small chances compared to some of our others．As Tony Hsieh once told me，the problem with email is that it is a“good—enough”solution．Some technologies stay around just because there isn’t anything better．It’s probably right．But my wish is that 2015 is the year when truly effective email management solutions go from good to great-and that email volume goes from crazy to reasonable．We’ll a11 be better for it．
1.The underlined word “spiraled” in Paragraph l probably means “_____________”.
A．increased rapidly B．moved in circle
C．changed unexpectedly D．appeared suddenly
2.The writer is unwilling to attend a meeting because____________.
A．he has to return with quantities of emails
B．answering emails calls for great attention
C．more emails will flood in waiting for him to check
D．he doesn’t want to take his fingers off the keyboard
3.From Paragraph 3，we may infer that____________.
A．the goal “inbox zero” is hard to obtain
B．the writer is devoted to deleting emails
C．pens and paper are highly favored at work
D．Fred Wilson famously declared “email bankruptcy”
4.The writer may agree that____________.
A．emails will come to an end
B．emails will still hold a place
C．existing email management is perfect
D．emails will never be sent to BlackBerrys
