41、根据以下内容回答41-60题:
Hostility is the urge to harm another person or oneself in the expression of anger．Anger is an anxiety defense reaction to anything perceived as a physical or emotional threat to sectirity，status，or self-image．Because the need to feel worthy and respected is natural to human beings，and because life is filled with chaHenges，every person feels angry sometimes．But the expression of anger depends on an individual’S psychological make up，and can range from mild irritation to uncontrolled great anger．
Internal psychological factors are the sources of anger；environment'al factors bring these out by stimulating vulnerable areas conditioned by the peculiar emotional interpersonal relation-ships of individual childhood．If a baby receives hostility instead of the love and affection he or she craves，the baby defends himself or herself with anger：When his or her shows of anger constantly move others to more anger，he or she learns to repress his or her feelings．Repress-ing anger hides it and its causes from conscious awareness，and makes its expression unpredict-able，less easy to control，and more impulsive．Impulsive expressions of anger，therefore，indi-cate suppression of deep feelings．Explosive“letting off steam”is a way of convincing oneself and others of the seriousness of provocation and the power of anger．It also relieves the pressures of underlying anxiety to a more tolerable level．
The strong energy of anger can be used in coristructive rather than destructive ways．It is healthy to release anger through non—injurious physical activity and the overcoming of frustration in achieving personal goals．By examining his or her feelings and reactions，a person can team to free himself or herself from the negative energy of anger．

46、根据以下内容回答46-65题：
Conflict，like stress，is a natural phenomenon when people interact．Conflict in some form is always present；however，it is not always negative．Conflict can be positive，for example，when you and your colleagues try to select the best pos．sible alternative to a problem．However， much more attention is given to the negative aspects of conflict．
Conflict occurs when we fear the unknown．This can be very simple：someone says some-thing in a tone of voice different from our expectations，which raises questions in our mind as to what the real meaning might be．Of course conflict can，and does，occur in much more serious circumstances.
Your ability to detect and understand conflict will place you in a better position to control the situation．Conflict is often categorized in three stages．Stage one is the day-to-day irritations that require minimal coping strategies．Stage one conflict is real but low in intensity．The inten-sity can increase if irritations increase and no solution iS found．
Stage two is reached when the parties become competitive．Each person protects his serf-interest and fears loss of face．The win-lose attitude becomes integrated with the problem．Stage three is reached when the objective changes from wanting to win toward wanting to hurt the other party．This stage can be explosive because other people are drawn into the con-flict and sides are chosen．Problem solving is no longer a realistic method of resolution．
By understanding the three stages of conflict，it will be easier for you to handle the day-to-day situations to which you are exposed．You will also be able to detect potential conflict be-tween others in which you do not want to get involved．

A．paid attention to because it is negative
