Man’s mind and his mental processes have always seemed to him as mysterious and
fascinating as the universe itself, but investigation of the nature of the mind has become the
province of experimental science only during relatively recent times. The scientific approach has
paid increasingly rich dividends in knowledge, however. During the last century much new light has
been cast on the nature of mental processes, on the source of emotional life and on the various
patterns of behavior. And as new knowledge has been added, old, simple views have been replaced
by more and more complicated questions. Nevertheless, man still asks, what is “mind”? Will all the
mysteries disappear when we understand the functioning of the complex anatomical structure we
know as the nervous system? Or does the mind have mysteries of its own?

You know already something about the parts of speech and the forms and relations of words, like singular and plural, subject and predicate, etc. Now we want to make a more general study of the different forms and relations, and this we call the study of English grammar. Probably you have heard that grammar is difficult and dry. This is not true. It is difficult and dry if you study it in the wrong way; that is, you try only to remember the rules and definitions. It should not be difficult or uninteresting if you study the many living idioms and forms of expressions, and find out how an Englishman would express an idea which you have in mind. To study how English people express an idea and compare it with the Chinese way is always useful, and sometimes highly interesting.

Everyone is anxious at one time or another. Anxiety is a normal response to threats directed towards one’s body, possessions, way of life, loved ones, or cherished values. It is normal during extreme effort or in a life situation that changes rapidly and demands continuous adaptation. Parents and teachers as well as psychiatrists agree that “normal” anxiety spurs the individual to useful action and plays an important role in beneficial change and personal growth. In contrast, excessive anxiety not only makes person unhappy but also has a deleterious effect on his performance. Anxiety is primarily a conscious subjective state, variously described as an emotion, affect, or feeling. It is expressed by certain kinds of behavior and is accompanied by characteristic physiologic changes. 語文類(一) 專業科目(一) 共 8 頁 第 6 頁 Whether anxiety is normal or abnormal depends on its intensity and duration and the circumstances that cause it. In current usage, fear and anxiety are often differentiated by regarding fear as the response to a realistic danger and anxiety as the result of obscure or irrational causes. This distinction is hard to maintain consistently and has only limited practical value.
