What’s the topic discussed in this passage?
Why do we cry? Can you imagine life without tears? Not only do tears keep your eyes lubricated, they also contain a substance that kills certain bacteria so they can’t infect your eyes. Give up your tears, and you’ll lose this on-the-spot defense. Nobody wants to give up the flood of extra tears you produce when you get something physical or chemical in your eyes. Tears are very good at washing this irritating stuff out. Another thing you couldn’t do without your tears is cry from joy, anger or sadness. Humans are the only animals that produce tears in response to emotions, and most people say a good cry makes them feel better. Many scientists, therefore, believe that crying somehow helps us cope with emotional situations. Tear researcher, Winifred, is trying to figure out how it happens. One possibility he says is that tears discharge certain chemicals from your body, chemicals that build up during stress. When people talk about crying it out," I think that might actually be what they are doing", he says. If Fred is right, what do you think will happen to people who restrain their tears? Boys, for example, cry only about a quarter as often as girls once they reach teenage years, and we all cry a lot less now than we did as babies. Could it possibly be that we face less stress? Maybe we found another ways to deal with it, or maybe we just feel embarrassed.
选项
A、Only one out of four girls cries less often than boys.
B、Of four boys, only one cries very often.
C、Girls cry four times as often as boys.
D、Only one out of four babies doesn’t cry often.
答案
C
解析
题干问:“关于十几岁的男孩和女孩,这篇文章是怎么说的?”材料中说“Boys,for example,cry only about a quarter as often as girls once they reach teenage years…”即十几岁的男孩哭的次数是女孩的1/4,所以答案C“女孩哭的次数是男孩的四倍”符合题意。
