5.Researchers in the psychology department at the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) have discovered a major difference in the way men and women respond to stress.This difference may explain why men are more likely to suffer from stress related disorders.
Until now,psychological research has maintained that both men and women have the same"fight or flight"reaction to stress.In other words,individuals either react with aggressive behavior,such as verbal or physical conflict ("fight"),or they react by withdrawing from the stressful situation ("flight").However,the UCLA research team found that men and women have quite different biological and behavioral responses to stress.While men often react to stress in the fight or flight response,women often have another kind of reaction which could be called"tend and befriend."That is,they often react to stressful conditions by protecting and nurturing their young ("tend"),and by looking for social contact and support from others-especially other females ("befriend").
Scientists have long known that in the fight or flight reaction to stress,an important role is played by certain hormones(激素) released by the body.The UCLA research team suggests that the female tend or befriend response is also based on a hormone.This hormone,called oxytocin,has been studied in the context of childbirth,but now it is being studied for its role in the response of both men and women to stress.The principal investigator,Dr.Shelley E.Taylor,explained that"animals and people with high levels of oxytocin are calmer,more relaxed,more social,and less anxious."While men also secrete(分泌) oxytocin,its effects are reduced by male hormones.
In terms of everyday behavior,the UCLA study found that women are far more likely than men to seek social contact when they are feeling stressed.They may phone relatives or friends,or ask directions if they are lost.
The study also showed how fathers and mothers responded differently when they came home to their family after a stressful day at work.The typical father wanted to be left alone to enjoy some peace and quiet.For a typical mother,coping with a bad day at work meant focusing her attention on her children and their needs.
The differences in responding to stress may explain the fact that women have lower frequency of stress related disorders such as high blood pressure or aggressive behavior.The tend and befriend regulatory(调节的) system may protect women against stress,and this may explain why women on average live longer than men.

32.The UCLA study shows that in response to stress,men are more likely than women toC.
A.turn to friends for help        B.solve a conflict calmly
C.find an escape from reality     D.seek comfort from children
33.Which of the following is true about oxytocin according to the passage?D
A.Men have the same level of oxytocin as women do.
B.Oxytocin used to be studied in both men and women.
C.Both animals and people have high levels of oxytocin.
D.Oxytocin has more of an effect on women than on men.
34.What can be learned from the passage?C
A.Male hormones help build up the body's resistance to stress.
B.In a family a mother cares more about children than a father does.
C.Biological differences lead to different behavioral responses to stress.
D.The UCLA study was designed to confirm previous research findings.
35.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A
A.How men and women get over stress
B.How men and women suffer from stress
C.How researchers overcome stress problems
D.How researchers handle stress related disorders.
7.Make Up Your Mind to SucceedKind-hearted parents have unknowingly left their children defenseless against failure.The generation born between 1980 and 2001 grew up playing sports where scores and performance were played down because"everyone's a winner."And their report cards sounded more positive than ever before.As a result,Stanford University professor Carol Dweck,PhD,calls them"the overpraised generation."
Dweck has been studying how people deal with failure for 40 years.Her research has led her to find out two clearly different mind-sets that have a great effect on how we react to it.Here's how they work:
A fixed mind-set is grounded in the belief that talent is genetic-you're a born artist,point guard,or numbers person.The fixed mind-set believes it's sure to succeed without much effort and regards failure as personal shame.When things get difficult,it's quick to blame,lie,and even stay away from future difficulties.
On the other hand,a growth mind-set believes that no talent is entirely heaven-sent and that effort and learning make everything possible.Because the ego (自尊) isn't on the line as much,the growth mind-set sees failure as a chance rather than shame.When faced with a difficulty,it's quick to rethink,change and try again.In fact,it enjoys this experience.
We are all born with growth mind-sets.(Otherwise,we wouldn't be able to live in the world.) But parents,teachers,and instructors often push us into fixed mind-sets by encouraging certain actions and misdirecting praise.Dweck's book,Mind-set:The New Psychology of Success,and online instructional program explain this in depth.But she says there are many little things you can start doing today to make sure that your children,grandchildren and even you are never defeated by failure.
28.What does the author think about the present generation?D
A.They don't do well at school.
B.They are often misunderstood.
C.They are eager to win in sports.
D.They are given too much praise.
29.A fixed mind-set person is probably one whoC.
A.cannot share his ideas with others
B.cares a lot about personal safety
C.doesn't want to work hard  
D.can succeed with the help of teachers
30.What does the growth mind-set believe?B
A.Admitting failure is shameful.
B.Getting over difficulties is enjoyable.
C.Scores should be highly valued.
D.Talent comes with one's birth.
31.What should parents do for their children based on Dweck's study?A
A.Encourage them to learn from failures.
B.Prevent them from making mistakes.
C.Guide them in doing little things.
D.Help them grow with praise.
