Three days had passed and Rita seemed to get weaker and weaker. The rain had stopped. However, the sky was still cloudy, and it was so dark that I couldn39。t see the buildings even across the road. I took a pressure reading from the weather station: 947mb, which let me know exactly where I was—in the eye of the storm. There were rains and winds still, but not oppressive (難以忍受的)anymore. There was still no power, hot water or food. Besides, I didn39。t sleep well for all these days, but I felt more relaxed since the weather report said Rita was leaving. What39。s more, I was luckier than those people who had lost their homes or even worse, lost their lives because of Rita. As I travelled further to the west, going after the storm, the damage along the way became less severe. I arrived in Houston after a tricky journey with my fuel supplies almost all gone. However, I came across another storm chaser (追逐者) who had 45 gallons of petrol. He helped me and we shared our working experience these days. With a plete stroke of luck I found a rundown hotel that allowed me to have a room overnight before the midnight. Although there was no running water, no power and no air conditioning, I curled up into a corner and fell asleep quickly. I woke up the next morning, and what a change! The sky was blue and cars were moving around. Sirens could be heard as convoys (護航隊) of emergency managements started to head west towards where I had e from. The storm had stopped and I could go home. I gave all my remaining supplies to other people at the hotel and headed towards the airport. Houston Airport was not damaged, so I took my flight and drank my first hot drink in four days. All in all, when I came back home, I was proud that I finally made it again to follow and record the storm and I really learned a lot these days. Although it39。s dangerous, I love my job as not many people would go into the eye of an intense storm.（1）We can know from the passage that “Rita” is ________.

Over the last two decades, scientists have made remarkable predictions simply by watching people interact with one another and then scoring the conversations based on the rate of positive and negative interactions. Researchers have used the findings to predict everything from the likelihood that a couple will divorce to the chances of a work team with high customer satisfaction and productivity levels. More recent research helps explain why these brief exchanges matter so much. When you experience negative emotions as a result of criticism or rejection, for example, your body produces higher levels of the stress hormone, which shuts down much of your thinking and activates (激活) conflict and defense mechanisms (機制). You assume that situations are worse than they actually are. When you experience a positive interaction, it activates a very different response. Positive exchanges increase your body39。s production of oxytocin,
