g, and light is ing soon. Then a spring came with only half the usual blooms and the next spring there were none. I missed the crocuses, so I would ask Dad to e over and plant new bulbs.

It was Dad39。 s birthday, and I found myself thinking about him. This was not unusual — my family often talked about him, remembering how he lived up to his faith. Suddenly I slowed as I turned into our driveway. I stopped and stared at the lawn. There on the muddy grass with small piles of melting snow, bravely waving in the wind, was one pink crocus. How could a flower bloom from a bulb more than 18 years ago, one that hadn39。 t bloomed in over a decade? But there was the crocus. Tears filled my eyes as I realized its significance.

I missed the crocuses,可知父亲在世时番红花并不是每年都开花， D错误。 故选 D. D Soaping up your hands may do more than just get rid of germs. It may wash away the inner confusion you feel right after being forced to make a choice between two appealing choices, according to a new study. The study builds on the past research into a phenomenon known as “ the Macb eth effect” (麦克白效应 ） . It turns out that Shakespeare was really onto something when he imagined Lady Macbeth trying to clean her conscience by rubbing invisible bloodstains from her hands. A few years ago, scientists asked people to describe a past wrong act. If people were then given a chance to clean their hands, they later expressed less guilt than people who hadn39。 t cleaned. This finding interested W. S. Lee, a researcher. “ Anything from the past, any kind of negative emotional experiences, might be washed away,” says Lee. He decided to test hand washing39。 s effect on one kind of bad feeling： the tension we feel after being forced to choose between two attractive choices, because picking one choice makes us feel that we39。 ve lost the other. People usually try to calm this inner conflict by later exaggerating (夸大 ） the positive aspects of their choice. He had students rank 10 different music CDs. Then he offered students two of the CDs and told them to select one as a gift. Some students then used liquid soap. Others only looked at the soap or sniffed (闻 )it. “ Actually ,you do not need water and soap,” says Lee. Later, the students again had to rank all the music CDs. People who didn39。 t wash their hands had the normal response — they scored their takehome CD higher, suggesting that they now saw it as an even more attractive one than before. But this wasn39。 t true for the hand washers. They ranked the music about the same. “They feel no need at all to justify (证明 „ 正确 ） the choice,” says Lee. But the effects of it just aren39。 t clear. Schwarz says it’s too soon to know whether people should head for a sink after making a tough choice. He says washing may help decisionmakers by cleaning away mental disorder. But perhaps if they don39。 t go through the usual postdecision process of justifying their choice, they might feel more sorrow in the long run. 32. “The Macbeth effect” refers to the fact that ______. A. Lady Macbeth had a habit of washing hands B. people feel less ashamed after washing their hands C. Macbeth knew about the importance of cleaning hands D. Shakespeare used to wash his hands before writing Macbeth 33. In Lee39。 s experiment, those who didn39。 t wash their hands after making a choice ______. A. valued their choice more than before B. felt regretful about their choice C. wished they had washed their hands D. didn39。 t care about their choice 34. According to Lee, those hand washers consider justifying their choice ______. A. scientific B. useful C. unnecessary D. convincing 35. What does the author intend to tell us in the passage? A.。
