九、[科普知识] 医生向 Little Peter 的妈妈分享了一篇文章。根据短文，选择正确的答案。（10 分）
Want to stay away from colds? Put on a happy face.
Compared to unhappy people, those who are cheerful and relaxed are less likely to suffer from（遭受）colds, according to a new study. It's possible that being happy helps the body fight illness, say the researchers from New York University.
“It seems that positive（积极的）feelings may reduce the danger of illness,” said the study's chief researcher Sheldon Cohen.
In an earlier study, Cohen found that people who were cheerful and lively caught coughs and colds less often. People who showed positive feelings were also less likely to tell their doctors that
they felt ill.
In this study, Cohen interviewed 193 adults every day for two weeks. During the interviews, the people told researchers that they were given colds by doctors and had to stay alone in a room for six days.
The results showed that everyone in the study was equally likely to get ill. But for people who said they felt happy during the research period, their illness was less serious and lasted for a shorter time.
Cohen believes that when people experience positive feelings, their body may produce a chemical that helps fight illness and disease. So if you are worried about your health, look on the bright side more often.
（）1. Which of the following was NOT a part of the study?
A. People talked about their feelings.
B. People were kept alone for six days.
C. People were given colds by doctors.
D. People were made to feel unhappy.
（）2. What did the study find?
A. People who felt happy never got ill.
B. People's feelings didn't influence their health.
C. People with good feelings became ill more easily.
D. People with positive feelings had less serious illness.
（）3. According to Cohen, which of the following may help fight illness?
A. Eating.
B. Crying.
C. Laughing.
D. Sleeping.
（）4. This passage is a(n) .
A. advertisement
B. newspaper report
C. story
D. diary
（）5. [主旨大意] What is the best title for this passage?
A. Smiles Can Fight Colds
B. Cause of Colds Found
C. The Danger of Colds
D. How People Get Sick

1. D 2. D 3. C 4. B 5. A

【分析】
本题为英语科普类阅读理解题，解题思路如下：1. 先通读全文，明确核心主旨：积极情绪有助于身体对抗疾病（尤其是感冒）；2. 解答细节题时，需回到原文对应段落定位信息，逐一对比选项与原文内容，排除错误选项；3. 文体题需结合文章内容判断体裁，主旨题需提炼全文核心观点，选择最贴合的标题。具体各题思考：第1题需找出不属于研究的内容，回原文核对研究涉及的环节；第2题找研究的发现，定位相关描述；第3题找帮助对抗疾病的行为，结合积极情绪的表述；第4题判断文体，依据文章的研究介绍形式；第5题选主旨标题，紧扣全文核心。
【解析】
1. 细节理解题：根据原文第五段“During the interviews, the people told researchers that they were given colds by doctors and had to stay alone in a room for six days.”可知研究包含“谈论感受（A）、单独待6天（B）、被医生给予感冒（C）”，未提及“让人不开心（D）”，故选D。
2. 细节理解题：根据原文第六段“But for people who said they felt happy during the research period, their illness was less serious and lasted for a shorter time.”可知积极情绪的人病情更轻，A项“从不生病”表述绝对，B项“情绪不影响健康”与原文相悖，C项“更容易生病”错误，故选D。
3. 细节理解题：根据原文第二段“being happy helps the body fight illness”，laughing（笑）是积极情绪的表现，符合要求，故选C。
4. 文体判断题：文章介绍一项关于情绪与健康的研究结果，属于新闻报道类内容，A为广告、C为故事、D为日记，均不符合，故选B。
5. 主旨大意题：全文围绕“积极情绪（开心）有助于对抗感冒”展开，A项“Smiles Can Fight Colds”贴合主旨，B、C、D项均偏离核心，故选A。
【答案】
1.D 2.D 3.C 4.B 5.A
