32、 be patient.CHave you ever felt sleepy and unable to think 7clearly in a crowded classroom? The problem is caused by what we breathe out ourselves-carbon dioxide, or CO2.There are rules about how much fresh air we need in buildings to keep us healthy. When there isnt enough new air coming in to push
33、 the old air out, pollutants(污染物) build up. One of these pollutants is CO2, which increases every time we breathe out.The truth is that CO2 has always been considered harmless. After all, how poisonous(有毒的)could it be since it comes out of our own body? But this view changed when an American scienti
34、st named William Fisk happened to watch an experiment by Hungarian scientists six years ago. Their findings showed that people have difficulty doing paperwork when CO2 levels are high.Fisk and his team repeated the experiment at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab in California, US. They asked students t
35、o participate over three different periods. During each period, there were different carbon dioxide levels. Students had to take part in role-playing games on a computer: They were told they were managers and the organization they were running was having some problems. Each student was then graded o
36、n how well they dealt with these problems.Like the experiment from six years before, the results showed that students were more likely to make careful, smart decisions with less CO2 in the air. Their ability was reduced when the CO2 in the room rose, Science News reported.An interesting thing that F
37、isk noticed was that even though the students knew that the amount of CO2 was changing throughout the day, none of them felt the difference between each period. This means that CO2 can do harm without us even realizing it.This problem is especially serious for schools because there are lots of peopl
38、e in classrooms for long hours every day. So it is important that rooms are ventilated(通风). US scientists recently surveyed 100 California classrooms. “We found a clear relationship between higher CO2 level and increased absences(缺课) among the kids for illness,” said Mark Mendell, a member of the re
39、search team.53. What can we infer from the first three paragraphs? A. All the CO2 in the room comes from ourselves. B. People didnt think CO2 could harm the body before.C. CO2 is considered the most poisonous pollutant in a room.D. Fisk was the first to discover that CO2 could be bad for us.54. What
40、 was the conclusion of Fisk and his teams experiment? A. Students had the same reaction with different levels of CO2.B. Low levels of CO2 could make students do things carelessly.C. Students felt uncomfortable when the level of CO2 increased.D. High levels of CO2 reduced the students ability to make
41、 decisions.55. According to the last paragraph, wed better_. A. keep the windows open all the time B. put more plants inside to reduce CO2C. let fresh air into the rooms now and then8D. avoid going into rooms with too many people DAlmost everyone is afraid of something snakes, heights, public speaki
42、ng and so on. It is normal and can even be helpful to experience fear sometimes. In dangerous situations, fear can keep our bodies alert (警醒的) so that we can act quickly to protect ourselves.But for some people, fear develops into a “phobia”, which is a strong and unreasonable fear of something. For
43、 example, most of us feel a little scared when looking down from a tall building. But people with height phobia may have trouble breathing, feel dizzy or turn down a great job just because the company is on the 20th floor. Phobias can prevent you from living a normal life. “People with spider phobia
44、 would stay out of their home or dorm room for days if they thought a spider was present,” Katherina Hauner, a researcher at Northwestern University, US, told ABC News. This is why scientists have been trying to find a cure for this disease.Since fear comes from experience-from what we are told, wha
45、t we see others experience and what happens to us-some scientists think if they can “rewrite” these unpleasant memories, they might be able to help people overcome their phobias.In a study by Katherina Hauner and other scientists, participants with spider phobia were asked to first touch a spider wi
46、th a paintbrush. Seeing that it was not actually dangerous, they then tried touching it while wearing a glove. Finally, they could hold it with their hands.Certain medicine has also been found to be helpful. Back in 2010, researchers at the University of Hiroshima, Japan, injected a special medicine
47、 into a fish-who was afraid of light-to turn off the fear center in its brain. From then on, the fish no longer feared light.While the search for solutions to phobias is making great progress, its an open question whether getting rid of (去除) fear is good. Some people want to use these methods to make soldiers fight harder in wars by taking away their sense of fear. Dave Smithson of the charity Anxiety UK h
