10、ns below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. (40 points)Text 1 It hurts to keep secrets. Secrecy (保密) is associated with lower well-being, worse health, and less satisfying relationships. Research has linked secrecy to increased anxiety, depression, symptoms of
11、 poor health, and even the more rapid progression of disease. There is a seemingly obvious explanation for these harms: hiding secrets is hard work. You have to watch what you say.New research, however, suggests that the harm of secrets doesnt really come from the hiding after all. The real problem

They found t
14、hat the more frequently people simply thought about their secrets, the lower their well-being.Following up this research, a new paper reveals why thinking about secrets is so harmful.
