When we talk abut psitive thinking, we ften use terms having t d with ur hearts—pen heart, pure heart r jyful heart. But new research frm Duke University is making a clser cnnectin, finding that a psitive attitude may be helpful t peple wh have angina (心绞痛), a cmmn heart cnditin.
Symptms f this cnditin include chest pain r pressure because the heart is nt receiving sufficient xygen. Patients wh displayed ptimistic thught patterns, including having psitive expectatins abut recvery, were 40 percent less likely t be hspitalized r require surgery than thse wh were nt ptimistic, accrding t the study. The researchers cllected data frm 2, 400 patients wh had diagnses f angina.
An interesting additinal finding frm the patients' questinnaires was that the mst ptimistic patients were als the least likely t have histries f heart attack, heart failure r heart disease.
The researchers did nt declare a causal relatinship between psitive thinking and better heart disease utcmes, hwever. There are multiple pssible reasns fr the results f the study, including the idea that patients wh are healthier t begin with are mre likely t expect t recver and regain gd health.

Vincent van Ggh (1853-1890), perhaps the mst famus artist in the wrld, is perceived by many as the “mad” artist. His artistic genius is ften vershadwed by thse wh see his paintings as nly visual expressins f his trubled mind. While in part this may be true, in reality his innvative and unique artistic style was f enrmus imprtance t a hst f artists wh fllwed in his wake. Even when penly influenced by his predecessrs(前辈) r cntempraries (同辈), his art remained identifiably his wn, develping a distinctive style that failed t be accepted by the art-buying public in his wn time. The career f Vincent van Ggh as a painter was shrt, but his extrardinary bldness f his technique created masterpieces that exert a prfund influence n the art f the twentieth century.
Althugh the artist's first frmal jb after leaving schl was art-related, he did nt actually begin painting until years later. At 16, Vincent van Ggh entered an apprenticeship(学徒身份) at his uncle's branch f Gupil & Cie, a Paris-based art dealership. The psitin invlved travel and certainly expsure t the cntemprary art f his day, but Vincent van Ggh wuld mve n t religius wrk befre prducing the first Van Ggh painting.
His earliest wrks, cmpleted frm 1881 thrugh 1883, reflect a new-cmer's attentin t detail as well as hints f the new genius that wuld fully emerge in his later paintings. Althugh his sketches and waterclr drawings may, at first glance, seem tw-dimensinal and amateurish(业余的), they are fascinating in terms f their testament t the Vincent van Ggh's early studies in Realism.
32. Why d many peple think f Vincent van Ggh as a mad artist accrding t Paragraph 1?
A. Because his artistic style failed t be accepted by the public.
B. Because his paintings prved t be untrue frm the perspective f reality.
C. Because his art was penly influenced by thers and lacked his wn style.
D. Because his paintings were ften seen as visual expressins f his trubled mind.
33. What des Paragraph 2 mainly want t tell us?
A. Vincent van Ggh lived a miserable life befre becming a painter.
B. Vincent van Ggh experienced many different jbs befre painting.
C. Vincent van Ggh was als successful in many ther fields besides art.
D. Vincent van Ggh was rarely expsed t art befre prducing paintings.
34. What can we infer frm the last paragraph f the passage?
A. Vincent van Ggh had difficulty in distinguishing different clrs.
B. Vincent van Ggh had great abilities in teaching and training himself.
C. Peple thught highly f Vincent van Ggh's earliest wrks at first sight.
D. Vincent van Ggh preferred staying at hme t ging t schl while drawing.

The develpment f the English language tk a giant step just nine years befre the death f William Shakespeare. Three small British ships crssed the Atlantic Ocean in 1607. They landed in an area that wuld later becme the suthern American state f Virginia. They began the first f several British clnies. The name f the first small clny was Jamestwn.
Over the curse f the fllwing years，peple in these new clnies began t call areas f their new land by wrds brrwed frm the native peple they fund living there. Fr example，many f the great rivers in the United States are taken frm native American wrds. The Mississippi，the Tennessee and the Missuri are examples.
Other native American wrds include“mccasin"，the kind f shes made f animal skin that Indians wre n their feet This brrwing r adding f freign wrds t English was a way f expanding the language. The names f three days f the week are gd examples f this. The peple frm Nrthern Eurpe hnred three gds with a special day each week fr each ne. The gds were Odin，Thr and Freya. Odin's Day became Wednesday in English，Thr's Day became Thursday and Freya's Day became Friday.
