12.That"Monday morning feeling"could bea crushing pain in the chest which leaves you sweating and gasping for breath.Recent research from Germany and Italy shows that heart attacks are more common on Monday mornings and doctors blame the stress of returning to work after the weekend break.
The risk of having a heart attack on any given day should be one in seven,but a six-year study helped by researchers at the Free University of Berlin of more than 2,600Germans showed that the average person had a 20percent higher chance of having a heart attack on a Monday than on any other day.
Working Germans are particularly not protected against attack,with a 33percent higher risk at the beginning of the working week.Non-workers,by comparison,appear to be no more at risk on a Monday than any other day.
A study of 11,000Italians proved 8a.m.on a Monday morning as the most stressful time for the heart,and both studies showed that Sunday is the least stressful day,with fewest heart attacks in both countries.
The finding could lead to a better understanding of what is the immediate cause of heart attacks,according to Dr.Stefan Willich of the Free University."We know a lot about long-term risk factors such as smoking and cholesterol (胆固醇) but we don't know what actually causes heart attacks,so we can't give clear advice on how to prevent them."he said.
Monday mornings have a double helping of stress for the working body as it makes a rapid change from sleep to activity,and from the relaxing weekend to the pressure of work.
"When people get up,their blood pressure and heart rate go up and there are hormonal (内分泌) changes in their bodies."Willich explained."All these things can have an unfavorable effect in the blood system and increase the risk of a clot (血凝块) which will cause a heart attack."
"When people return to work after a weekend off,the pace of their life changes.They have a higher workload,more stress,more anger and more physical activities."said Willich.

解答 32-35 CDBD
32题答案:C考查细节推理,根据文章第二段的Recent research from Germany and Italy shows that heart attacks are more common on Monday mornings and doctors blame the stress of returning to work after the weekend break.(来自德国和意大利的近期研究表明周一早上心脏病更加普遍,而且医生责怪周末休息后重返工作的压力).可知"周一感觉在发达国家对于工作的人是有害的",故本题答案为C选项.
33题答案:D考查细节推理,根据文章最后一段的When people return to work after a weekend off,the pace of their life changes.They have a higher workload,more stress,more anger and more physical activities.当人们周末休息后返回工作时,他们的生活节奏发生了改变.他们有更高的工作负荷,更多的压力,更多的愤怒和更多的身体活动.可知医生认为为了保护人们免遭心脏病,他们应该多注意他们的生活方式;故本题答案为D选项.
34题答案:B考查细节推理,周末是休息时间,故break一词的含义为rest"休息";故本题答案为B选项.
35题答案:D考查细节推理,根据文章倒数第二段的"When people get up,their blood pressure and heart rate go up and there are hormonal (内分泌) changes in their bodies."Willich explained."All these things can have an unfavorable effect in the blood system and increase the risk of a clot (血凝块) which will cause a heart attack."Willich解释道:当人们起床时,他们的血压和心率上升而且身体里的内分泌会发生改变.所有的这些对于对于血系统都会有不好的影响并且会增加血凝块的风险--血凝块会导致心脏病.可知只有D选项没有提及,故本题答案为D选项.
