第三部分:阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)

    阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

                             A

People with less education suffer fewer stressful days, according to a report in the current issue of the Journal of Health and Social Behavior.

However, the study also found that when less-educated people did suffer stress it was more severe and had a stronger effect on their health.

From this, researchers have concluded that the day-to-day factors that cause stress are regular. Where you are in society determines the kinds of problems that you have each day, and how well you will cope with them.

The research team interviewed a national sample of 1, 031 adults daily for eight days about their stress level and health. People without a high school diploma reported stress on 30 percent of the study days, people with a high school degree reported stress 38 percent of the time, and people with college degrees reported stress 44 percent of the time.

“Less advantaged people are less healthy on a daily basis and are more likely to have downward turns in their health.” leading researcher, Dr. Joseph Grzywacz of Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center, said in a prepared statement. “The downward turns in health were connected with daily stressors (紧张刺激物), and the effect of daily stressors on their health is much more damaging for the less advantaged. ”

“If something happens every day, maybe it’s not seen as a stressor.” Grzywacz says. “Maybe it is just life.”

56.Stress level is closely related to           .

       A. family size B. social position    C. body weight      D. work experience

57.Which group reported the biggest number of stressful days?

       A. People without any education.      B. People without high school degrees.

       C. People with high school degrees.     D. People with college degrees.

58.The less advantaged people are, the greater            .

       A. the effect of stress on their health is B. the effect of education on their health is

       C. the level of their education is       D. the degree of their health concern is

59.Less-educated people report fewer days of stress possibly because          .

       A. they don’t want to tell truth                  B. they don’t want to face the truth

       C. stress is too common a factor in their life D. heir stress is much greater
