III.阅读理解（共15小题计30分）
We drink tea every day. But more than three hundred years ago, most of the people in Europe did not know anything about tea, because it was grown in Asia. There is a story about an English sailor（水手）. Once he went to India and China. When he came home, he brought some tea as a present for his mother. She told her friends about the present and asked them to a tea party. When her friends came to the tea party, the old woman brought out some leaves and asked them to eat tea. Of course, nobody liked the tea leaves.
Just then the sailor came in. He looked at the tea leaves on the table and asked his mother,“What have you done with the tea?”
“I boiled it as you said.”
“I threw it away, of course.” answered the woman.
“Now, you may throw away the leaves, too.” said her son.

He thanked me not only for __47   with him in the mornings, but for speaking directly to him and others on the elevator, and for telling him a quick joke in the crowded cafeteria. It seemed that __48   had ever been his friend before—or if so they were __49   to him in public.
He said he didn’t want to __50   much of my time, as he knew I was busy and he needed to __51   his personal things. He had tears in his eyes as he shook my hand and left.
I’ve never seen him since, but I imagine he’s doing well. Meeting him __52   my life. Now when I’m in a hurry, or have a bad day, I try extra hard to speak __53   to those around me.

Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging emotion, unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and possibly cancer.
___71___Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger, and scream and yell. But other people keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing anger.

Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease, and they believe that those who keep anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure.
___73___They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, and then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say, “___74___ Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably.”
Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry. ___75___
