Research shows that a child's awareness of social standing comes from adults. Like grown-ups, kids want to be _28_ by those they admire. Interactive experiences may provide opportunities for children to learn about what _29a desirable reputation and the kinds of strategies that are effective for _30a good reputation in their social environment.

It's important for us to further consider where in this process children succeed in controlling their reputation and where they _34_. A question to think about is,"What happens even earlier than age five?"Children don't just show up to the first day of kindergarten and have the idea of reputation pop _35_ into existence.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。 You're late for a job interview when traffic slows to a crawl. At the supermarket, a customer wheeling a full cart cuts ahead of you in the checkout line. You spend months on a make­it or break­it project, and your lazy colleague lands the promotion. Feel that burn? Before you explode with rage or fly into a fury, take a deep breath and remember this: Anger hurts. Study after study has found that high levels of anger and hostility(故意)are associated with greater risk for heart disease, poor immune(免疫)responses, and even a tendency for obesity(肥胖). Men with high anger scores were three times more likely to develop heart disease than their calmer companions, a Harvard School of Public Health study found. And in women, arguments with husbands raise hormone levels and lower immunity(免疫力)—a real problem, since lower immune response may increase women's risk of cancer. It doesn't seem to matter whether you release the anger or hold it in, experts say. The effect on your health are the same. “Anger_is_anger，”says Redford Williams, M．D，director of the Behavioral Medicine Research Center at Duke University Medical Center and co­author of the book Life Skills, “Both are harmful to health.” The good news is, it is possible to control your anger. “By evaluating it and using various techniques, you can talk yourself out of it，” Williams says，“That's what's nice about us humans: We can always do something or not do something to change our behavior.” 60．From the passage we learn that________. A．people who easily get angry are more likely to suffer from some diseases than cheerful ones B．calmer people suffer from some diseases easily C．men suffer more from high levels of anger and hostility than woman D．high levels of anger and hostility will unavoidably result in heart disease, obesity and cancer 61．According to Redford Williams，“Anger is anger”means that________.
