“America’s No.1 Health Problem.” So reads the headline of an article published by the American Institute of Stress that claims the biggest threat to health today is neither cancer nor AIDS. The report says: “It has been estimated(估计)that 75 to 90 percent of all visits to primary care physicians are for stress related problems.”

It is no exaggeration(夸张)to say that people today are being attacked by stress. According to the National Consumers League, “Work is the top source of stress for adults who have problems and stress in their lives (39%), followed by family (30%). Other sources include health (10%), concern about the economy (9%) and concern about international conflict and terrorism (4%).”

However, stress is hardly unique to the United States. A British survey in 2005 estimated that “over half a million individuals in Britain believed in 2004 that they were experiencing work-related stress at a level that was making them ill.” As a result of “work-related stress, depression or anxiety,” there are “an estimated thirteen and a half million reported lost working days per year in Britain.”

The picture is no less bleak in mainland Europe. According to the European Agency for Safety and Health at Work, “work-related stress has been shown to affect millions of European workers across all types of employment sectors.” One survey revealed that there are “about 41 million workers affected by work-related stress each year.”

What about Asia? A report issued by a conference held in Tokyo concluded: “Job stress is a common concern among many countries in the world, both developing and industrialized countries.” The report observed that “several countries in East Asia, including China and Korea, have rapidly industrialized and economically grown. These countries now have a lot of concerns on job stress and its harmful effects on workers’ health.”

1.The author quoted “America’s No.1 Health Problem.” (Para. 1) in order to ______.

A. talk about health problems in America

B. introduce the topic of stress

C. emphasize the stress in America

D. tell readers something about American Institute of Stress

2.From the passage we can learn that .

A. both cancer and AIDS are not as serious as the threat of stress to health

B. stress is mainly from working and living pressure

C. Americans never care about international conflict and terrorism

D. people in mainland Europe are more optimistic than English people

3.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that ______.

A. Asian people are more willing to develop their countries

B. the rapid economic development is the main reason for stress

C. some people in Asian countries have health problems from employment stress

D. Asian countries have a better situation of stress than Europe

4.What’s the main subject of the passage?

Depression is much higher amongst female bosses than male bosses,a new US survey finds.Dr Tetyana Pudrovska,the study's first author,explained:“Women with job authority-the ability to hire,fire,and influence pay-have greatly more symptoms of depression than women without this power.But men with job authority have fewer symptoms of depression than men without such power.”

The study followed 1,500 middle-aged women and 1,300 middle-aged men who all graduated from high schools in Wisconsin.The men and women were surveyed in 1993 and 2004 to look at the connection between how much authority they had at work and symptoms of depression.

The results showed that amongst men and women with lower levels of authority at work,women had slightly higher levels of depression.This is normal since overall women suffer from depression slightly more than men.Amongst men and women with higher levels of authority at work,however,it was women who had many more symptoms of depression than men.Men in authority actually had a 10% lower risk of depression,while authority increased the risk of women having depressive symptoms by 9%.

Dr Pudrovska continued:“What shocked us is that women with job authority in our study are advantaged in terms of most characteristics that are strong signs of positive mental health.These women have more education,higher incomes,better jobs,and higher levels of job satisfaction than women without job authority.Yet,they have worse mental health than lower-status(地位)women.”

The cause of this discrepancy is not known,but Dr Pudrovska says:“Years of social science research suggests that women in authority positions deal with interpersonal anxiety,negative social interactions,negative stereotypes,prejudice,social isolation(社会孤立),as well as resistance(抵抗)from colleagues.Women in authority positions are viewed as lacking in the assertiveness(果断)and confidence of strong leaders.But when these women display such characteristics,they are judged negatively for being unfeminine(不像女性的).This causes mental stress.”

Men,on the other hand,do not have to face these kinds of negative stereotypes about their abilities.

1.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?

A.Female bosses get less stress from work than male bosses.

B.Female bosses get the same stress from work as male bosses.

C.Female bosses get the same stress from work as employees.

D.Female bosses get more stress from work than male bosses.

2.What conclusion can we draw from the passage?

A.The higher levels of authority,the fewer women suffer depression.

B.The higher levels of authority,the more women suffer depression.

C.The lower levels of authority,the more men suffer depression.

D.The lower levels of authority,the more women suffer depression.

3.What did Dr Pudrovska think of the results?

A.Exciting. B.Surprising.

C.Disappointing. D.Inspiring.

4.What does the underlined word“discrepancy”in Paragraph 5 mean?

A.Difference. B.Excellence.

C.Preference. D.Reference.

It’s the place where smart people make smart machines work even smarter. It’s also in the heart of sunny California, a great place to start a family and raise kids. What could be better?

But something is happening to their children. Up until the age of two they develop normally. But then everything seems to go backwards. The children become lock into their own small world, unable to communicate at all.

They call it the “curse(诅咒) of Silicon Valley,” but the medical name for the condition is autism(自闭症). It used to be thought that autism was a kind of mental illness. Now doctors are sure that it is a neurological disease transmitted genetically. It seems that the people leading the communications revolution are having children who cannot communicate at all.

But even the parents have trouble communicating. Asperger’s Syndrome is a mild version of autism. People who have it are highly intelligent and often brilliant with numbers or system but have no social skill. This very combination of symptoms makes Asperger’s sufferers into ideal computer professionals.

The Asperger’s sufferer has always been a well-known figure in popular culture. He or she was the eccentric but dedicated scholar or the strange uncle or auntie who never married. But the high numbers of such people in Silicon Valley mean that they can meet others who understand them and share their interests. And while they might not be personally attractive, they can earn truly attractive amounts of money. They can get married and have kids. Unfortunately, many of the children of two Asperger’s parents seem to be developing serious autism.

There is little anyone can do. It takes hours of work just to make autistic child realize that anyone else exists. And there is no cure in sight. Some argue that no cure should be found. “It may be that autistics are essentially different from normal people, but that these differences make them invaluable for the evolution of the human race,” says Dr. Kirk Whilhelmsen of the University of California. “To eliminate the genes for autism could be disastrous.

It seems that the children of Silicon Valley are paying the price of genius.

1.What does Dr Kirk Whilhelmsen think of autism?

A. It is disastrous to society.

B. It is not completely a bad thing.

C. It is a punishment to those working in Silicon Valley.

D. People with autism should never marry.

2.Why do people call autism “curse of Silicon Valley”?

A. Because autistic people live in Silicon Valley.

B. Because many people working in Silicon Valley have autism children.

C. Because people with autism will be driven out of Silicon Valley.

D. Because people with autism are not personally attractive and not liked by others.

3.What can we know about Asperger’s Syndrome according to the passage?

A. Asperger’s sufferers are ideal computer professionals.

B. Asperger’s sufferers never get married and have children.

C. Asperger’s sufferers are ashamed of themselves and locked into their own world.

D. Asperger’s sufferers can be beneficial to society if they are cured.

Self-confidence, motivation, support and knowledge are the main factors determining if one succeeds or fails. Each of these factors influences our chances of success in a different way. 1..

Lack of self-confidence is probably the most dreadful enemy of success. 2. Even the most capable person is sure to fail with such an attitude. If it is your case too, improving your self-confidence is a must.

Motivation is equally as important as self-confidence. 3. You may even not try to achieve the goal that lies before you. It is important to find out what is the best motivation for you. If you have to do something that does not motivate you, just treat yourself with a reward after you succeed. Of course, this reward should consist of something that will motivate you to pursue(追求) a success.

4. While it is not a must for succeeding in your goals, a lack of support can often lead to failure. It is also true that some people cannot succeed without a proper support from their surroundings. These people often lose their motivation or worse, their self-confidence. If you know such a person, supporting him or her is a right thing to do. Also surround yourself with the right people. You will see the results soon.

Pursuing realistic goals is also important for a success. You should always make sure that your goals are achievable. 5. Unrealistic goals usually lead to a fast failure and also make many people embarrassed.

A. As we know, many people try but do not succeed.

B. Consider all your knowledge and skills when setting up a goal.

C. Motivation is something in yourself that can push you forwards.

D. There are several main reasons why some people cannot succeed.

E. Supportive family and collective workplace are also very important.

F. Without it, you will not push yourself towards a better performance.

G. Thinking you are not good enough to achieve your goals is the same as deciding that you will not succeed.
