26、Russ Fee was asleep inside his tent when screams awoke him. Throwing on his shoes, he ran out to look. Russ and his wife were travelling through Canada’s Banff National Park to enjoy its stunning beauty and awesome wildlife. It was the latter that he then encountered. Although it was dark, Russ could see a neighbouring tent. Backing out was a wolf, dragging something in his teeth. That thing was a man.
Moments earlier, Elisa and Matt Rispoli were asleep with their two young children when the wolf tore into their tent. “It was something out of a horror movie,” Elisa posted on Facebook. For 3 minutes, “Matt threw his body in front of me and the boys and fought the wolf.” At one point, Matt got the upper hand, pinning the wolf to the ground. But the wolf fixed its jaws onto Matt’s arm, and began pulling him outside.
It was then that Russ entered the picture. He ran at the beast, kicking it “like I was kicking in a door,” he told ABC New York. The wolf dropped Matt and came out from the tent. “I felt like I had hit someone that is way out of my weight class,” Russ added. Before the wolf could turn its anger on Russ, Matt, whose arms bloodied, flew out of the tent to continue the battle. The men threw rocks at the wolf, forcing it back, then the Fees and the Rispolis ran into the Fees’ minivan. An ambulance was called, and Matt was taken to a local hospital suffering bad injuries. He now has fully recovered. The wolf was tracked down by park officials and euthanized (实施安乐死).
As for Russ, whom Elisa called their guardian angel, he does admit to a fleeting (转瞬即逝的) thought, if less-than-heroic, during the heat of battle. The moment the wolf locked eyes with him, “ I immediately regretted kicking it.”

29、 Smiling really can make people feel happier, according to a new study. American psychologists (心理学家) looked at nearly 50 years of data testing whether facial expressions can lead people to feel the emotions related to those expressions. They found smiling made people feel happier; frowning (皱眉) made them feel angrier or sadder.
However, the effects are not so strong, and the researchers warn this should hardly be held up as a way to offset weak mental health conditions like depression. Lead researcher Nicholas Coles said: “Ordinary wisdom tells us that we can feel a little happier if we simply smile. Or that we can get ourselves in a more serious mood if we frown. But psychologists have actually disagreed about this idea for over 100 years.”
The research team says the disagreements became more pronounced in 2016, when 17 teams of researchers failed to copy a well-known experiment showing that the physical act of smiling can make people feel happier. Coles said: “Some studies have not found evidence that facial expressions can influence emotional feelings. But we can’t focus on the results of any one study. Psychologists have been testing this idea since the early 1970s, so we wanted to look at all the evidence.”
Using a data technique called meta-analysis (荟萃分析), the team collected data from 138 studies testing more than 11, 000 people from all around the world. The results of the meta-analysis suggest that facial expressions have a small influence on feelings.
Coles added: “We don’t think that people can smile their way to happiness. But these findings are exciting because they provide evidence about how the mind and the body affect each other to shape our experience of emotion. We still have a lot to learn about these effects, but this meta-analysis put us a little closer to understanding how emotions work.”
【1】What did the latest study find?
A.Facial expressions could show how happy people are.
B.Acting happy and feeling happy have weak connection.
C.Researchers share the same idea in the influence of smiling.
D.Smiling is the best way to fight with mental health conditions.

A.recognize

D.make up for
【3】What might be the best title for the text?

C.Negative Feelings Will Get You in a Worse Mood
D.Secrets of Emotions Have Been Finally Unlocked
