　　Stress

　　This may come as a surprise, but you need stress in your life. Leading stress management experts say that life without stress would be dull and unexciting. Stress adds flavor, challenge, and opportunity to life. However, too much stress can seriously affect your physical and mental well-being. A major challenge in today\'s stress-filled world is to make the stress in your life work for you instead of against you.

　　In today\'s hectic, fast-paced world and with the booming economy, stress is our constant companion. It comes from mental or emotional activity and physical activity. Too much emotional stress can result in physical illness, such as high blood pressure, ulcers, asthma, irritable colon, headaches, or even heart disease. On the other hand, physical stress from work or exercise rarely causes such ailments. In fact, physical exercise can help you to relax and to handle your mental or emotional stress.

　　Hans Selye, M.D., a recognized expert in the field, has defined stress as a \"nonspecific response of the body to a demand\". The key to reducing stress is learning how our bodies respond to those demands. When stress becomes prolonged or particularly frustrating, it can become harmful-causing distress or \"bad stress\". Recognizing the early signs of distress and then doing something about them can make a significant difference in the quality of your life.

　　In order to use stress in a positive way and prevent it from becoming distress, you should be aware of your own reactions to stressful events. The body responds to stress by going through specific stages: (1) alarm, (2) resistance, and (3) exhaustion. Muscles tense, blood pressure and heart rate rise, and adrenaline and other stress-triggered hormones that increase the level of alertness are released. If the stress-causing conditions continue, your body will need time to make repairs, if that happens, you eventually may develop a physical problem that is related to stress, such as migraine headaches, high blood pressure, backaches, or insomnia. That\'s why when stress occurs it\'s important that you recognize and deal with it in a positive way. While it\'s impossible to live completely free of stress and distress, it is possible to prevent some distress as well as to minimize its impact when it can\'t be avoided. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services offers the following suggestions for ways to handle stress.

　　When you\'re nervous, angry or upset, try releasing the pressure through exercise or physical activity. Running, walking, playing tennis, or working in your garden are just some of the activities you might try. Physical exercise will relieve your anxiety and worry and help you relax. Your body and your mind will work together to ease the stress in your life.

　　Share Your Stress

　　It helps to talk with someone about your anxieties and worries. Perhaps a friend, family member, teacher, or counselor can help you achieve a more positive perspective on what\'s troubling you. If you feel your problem is serious, you might seek professional help from a psychologist, psychiatrist or social worker. Knowing when to ask for help is a positive step in avoiding more serious problems later.

　　Take Care of Yourself

　　You should make every effort to eat well and to get enough rest. If you\'re irritable and tense from lack of sleep, or if you\'re not eating properly, you\'ll be more vulnerable to stressful situations. If stress repeatedly keeps you from sleeping, you should consult your doctor.

　　Make Time for Yourself

　　Schedule time for both work and recreation. Don\'t forget, play can be just as important to your overall well-being as work. You need a break from your daily routine to just relax and have fun. Go window-shopping or work on a hobby. Allow yourself at least a half hour each day to do something you enjoy.

　　Make a List of the Things You Need to Do

　　Stress can result from disorganization and a feeling that \"there\'s so much to do, and not enough time\". Trying to take care of everything at once can be overwhelming, and as a result, you may not accomplish anything. Instead, make a list of everything you have to do, then do one thing at a time, checking off each task as it is completed. Give priority to the most important tasks and do those first.

　　Go Ahead and Cry

　　A good cry can be a healthy way to bring relief to your anxiety. It might even help yon avoid a headache or other physical consequence of anxiety and stress.

　　Yon can\'t always run away, but you can allow yourself a mental \"get-away\". A quiet country scene painted mentally, or on canvas, can transport you from the tension of a stressful situation to a more relaxing frame of mind. You also can create a sense of peace and tranquility by reading a good book or listening to beautiful music.

　　While yon can use prescription or over-the-counter medications to relieve stress temporarily, they do not remove the conditions that caused the stress in the first place. In fact, many medications may be habit-forming and also may reduce your efficiency, thus creating more stress than they eliminate. They should be taken only on the advice of your doctor.

　　Relax

　　The best strategy for reducing or avoiding stress altogether is to learn how to relax. Unfortunately, many people try to relax at the same pace that they lead the rest of their lives. That doesn\'t work. Instead, try tuning out your worries about time, productivity and \"doing right\". Here are several relaxation techniques you may find helpful:

　　-You should take a deep breath and exhale to help calm your mind, counter your body\'s natural stress reaction and improve your response.

　　-You should laugh. Many stress management experts advocate laughter as a relaxation technique for relieving tension.

　　-You should take a warm bath or shower. Whether you prefer bubble baths or long hot showers, this is an excellent way to relax after a stressful day.

　　-You should try progressive muscle relaxation. Individual contract and relax each muscle group of your body. Begin by tensing your toes for 10 seconds, then relax them for 20. Work all the way up your body, alternately tensing and relaxing, and finish with your facial muscles.

　　By learning the \"art\" of relaxation, you\'ll find satisfaction in just \"being\", without trying or striving. Your focus on relaxation, enjoyment and health will reduce stress, anxiety and worry in your life. The result is, you will be calmer, healthier and happier.

　　Part Ⅳ Reading Comprehension (Reading in Depth) (25 minutes)

　　Section A

　　Directions：In this section，there is a short passage with 5 questions or incomplete statements. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words on Answer Sheet 2.

　　Questions 47 to 51 are based on the following passage.

　　For most people, shopping is still a matter of wandering down the high street or loading a cart in a shopping mall. Soon, that will change. Electronic commerce is growing fast and will soon bring people more choice. There will, however, be a cost: protecting the consumer from fraud will be harder. Many governments therefore want to extend highstreet regulations to the electronic world. But politicians would be wiser to see cyberspace as a basis for a new era of corporate self-regulation.

　　Consumers in rich countries have grown used to the idea that the government takes responsibility for everything from the stability of the banks to the safety of the drugs, or their rights to refund(退款) when goods are faulty. But governments cannot enforce national laws on businesses whose only presence in their country is on the screen. Other countries have regulators, but the rules of consumer protection differ, as does enforcement. Even where a clear right to compensation exists, the online catalogue customer in Tokyo, say, can hardly go to New York to extract a refund for a dud purchase.

　　One answer is for governments to cooperate more: to recognize each other\'s rules. But that requires years of work and volumes of detailed rules. And plenty of countries have rules too fanciful for sober states to accept. There is, however, an alternative. Let the electronic businesses do the \"regulation\" themselves. They do, after all, have a self-interest in doing so.

　　In electronic commerce, a reputation for honest dealing will be a valuable competitive asset. Governments, too, may compete to be trusted. For instance, customers ordering medicines online may prefer to buy from the United States because they trust the rigorous screening of the Food and Drug Administration; or they may decide that the FDA\'s rules are too strict, and buy from Switzerland instead.

　　Consumers will need to use their judgment. But precisely because the technology is new, electronic shoppers are likely for a while to be a lot more cautious than consumers of the normal sort---and the new technology will also make it easier for them to complain noisily when a company lets them down. In this way, at least, the advent of cyberspace may argue for fewer consumer protection laws, not more.

　　47. What can people benefit from the fast-growing development of electronic commerce?

　　48. When goods are faulty, consumers in rich countries tend to think that it is ______________ who takes responsibility for everything.

　　50. We can infer from the passage that in licensing new drugs the FDA in the United States is _______________.

　　51. We can learn from the passage that _____________are probably more cautious than consumers of the normal sort when buying things.

　　Section B

　　Directions：There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D).

　　注意：此部分试题请在答题卡2上作答。

　　Passage One

　　Questions 52 to 56 are based on the following passage.

　　Opinion poll surveys show that the public see scientists in a rather unflattering light.

　　Commonly, the scientist is also seen as being male. It is true that most scientists are male, but the picture of science as a male activity may be a major reason why fewer girls than boys opt for science, except when it comes to biology, which is seen as \"female.\"

　　The image most people have of science and scientists comes from their own experience of school science, and from the mass media. Science teachers themselves see it as a problem that so many school pupils find school science an unsatisfying experience, though over the last few years more and more pupils, including girls, have opted for science subjects.

　　In spite of excellent documentaries, and some good popular science magazines, scientific stories in the media still usually alternate between miracle and scientific threat. The popular stereotype of science is like the magic of fairy tales: it has potential for enormous good or awful harm. Popular fiction is full of \"good\" scientists saving the world, and \"mad\" scientists trying to destroy it.

　　From all the many scientific stories which might be given media treatment, those which are chosen are usually those which can be framed in terms of the usual news angles: novelty, threat, conflict or the bizarre. The routine and often tedious work of the scientist slips from view, to be replaced with a picture of scientists forever offending public moral sensibilities (as in embryo research), threatening public health (as in weapons research), or fighting it out with each other (in giving evidence at public enquiries such as those held on the issues connected with nuclear power).

　　The mass media also tends to over-personalize scientific work, depicting it as the product of individual genius, while neglecting the social organization which makes scientific work possible. A further effect of this is that science comes to be seen as a thing in itself: a kind of unpredictable force; a tide of scientific progress.

　　It is no such thing, of course. Science is what scientists do; what they do is what a particular kind of society facilitates, and what is done with their work depends very much on who has the power to turn their discoveries into technology, and what their interests are.

　　52. According to the passage, ordinary people have a poor opinion of science and scientists partly because ______.

　　A) of the misleading of the media

　　B) opinion polls are unflattering

　　C) scientists are shown negatively in the media

　　D) science is considered to be dangerous

　　53. Fewer girls than boys study science because ______.

　　A) they think that science is too difficult

　　B) they are often unsuccessful in science at school

　　C) science is seen as a man\'s job

　　D) science is considered to be tedious

　　54. Media treatment of science tends to concentrate on _____.

　　A) the routine, everyday work of scientists

　　B) discoveries that the public will understand

　　C) the more sensational aspects of science

　　D) the satisfactions of scientific work

　　55. According to the author, over-personalization of scientific work will lead science

　　A) isolation from the rest of the world

　　B) improvements on school system

　　C) association with \"femaleness\"

　　D) trouble in recruiting young talent

　　56. According to the author, what a scientist does _______.

　　A) should be attributed to his individual genius

　　B) depends on the coordination of the society

　　C) shows his independent power

　　D) is unpredictable

　　Passage Two

　　Questions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage.

　　The tendency to look for some outside group to blame for our misfortunes is certainly common and it is often sustained by social prejudice. There seems to be little doubt that one of the principal causes of prejudice is fear: in particular the fear that the interests of our own group are going to be endangered by the actions of another. This is less likely to be the case in a stable, relatively unchanging society in which the members of different social and occupational groups know what to expect of each other, and know what to expect for themselves. In times of rapid racial and economic change, however, new occupations and new social roles appear, and people start looking jealously at each other to see whether their own group is being left behind.

　　Once prejudice develops, it is hard to stop, because there are often social forces at work which actively encourage unfounded attitudes of hostility and fear towards other groups. One such force is education: We all know that children can be taught history in such a way as to perpetuate old hatred and old prejudices between racial and political groups. Another social influence that has to be reckoned with is the pressure of public opinion. People often think and act differently in groups from the way they would do as individuals. It takes a considerable effort of will, and often calls for great courage, to stand out against one\'s fellows and insist that they are wrong.

　　Why is it that we hear so much more about the failures of relationships between communities than we do about the successes? I am afraid it is partly due to the increase in communication which radio, television and the popular press have brought about. In those countries where the media of mass communication are commercial enterprises, they tend to measure success by the size of their audience; and people are more likely to buy a newspaper, for instance, if their attention is caught by something dramatic, something sensational, or something that arouses their anxiety. The popular press flourishes on \"scare headlines\", and popular orators, especially if they are politicians addressing a relatively unsophisticated audience, know that the best way to arouse such an audience is to frighten them

　　Where there is a real or imaginary threat to economic security, this is especially likely to inflame group prejudice. It is important to remember economic factors if we wish to lessen prejudice between groups, because unless they are dealt with directly it will be little use simply advising people not to be prejudiced against other groups whom they see as their rivals, if not their enemies.

　　57. Which of the following does the author see as the chief source of prejudice?

　　A) The distorted ideas which are believed as statement of fact.

　　B) Fear that personal interest will be invaded.

　　C) The dispute which is favorable to the opponents not one\'s own part.

　　D) The concepts that a community takes for granted.

　　58. What part do newspapers and radio play in inter-communal relationships?

　　A) They educate people not to look jealously at each other

　　B) They cause further prejudice among audience.

　　C) They discuss interesting problems in more details

　　D) They draw the audience\'s attention to prejudice.

　　59. What\'s the subject of paragraph 2?

　　A) How to eliminate our prejudice.

　　B) The pressure of social opinion.

　　C) The role of education to children.

　　D) Social forces that strengthen our bias

　　60. Which of the following can be used to describe the author\'s opinion about prejudice?

　　A) It is a difficult problem to solve.

　　B) It can be done away with.

　　C) It is an evil state of mind.

　　D) It should be criticized.

　　61. What\'s the author\'s purpose of writing this article?

　　A) To analyze social prejudice between social groups.

　　B) To reveal the danger of social prejudice.

　　C) To blame the politicians for frightening the audience

　　D) To show some examples of people\'s prejudice
