Are we under-employed, or overburdened with too many responsibilities？ Do we have a right balance of work and leisure in our lives？ Are our relationships with family, friends or fellow workers all they should be？
All these things can be a cause of stress, and it is best to face them honestly, and to bring our frustrations into the open. People who have a good row and then forget it are doing their health more good than those who bottle up their feelings.
(85) If our self-examination has brought any causes of stress to light, let us consider what we can do about them. It is possible to change jobs. We can make more leisure and fill it more happily, if we will accept a different living standard. We can improve our personal relationships by a different attitude. It is we who allow other people to make ourselves unhappy. Often the little things that disturb us are not worth an hour's anger. The teaching in the Bible "Let not the sun go down upon your wrath" is good advice from the health point of view as well as the religious.
Which of the following statements is TRUE？
A．Freedom from responsibilities helps relieve stress.
B．Stress is the direct cause of cancer.
C．The causes of stress are worthy of serious study.
D．Cancer is the number one killer in our society today.

Lester: Well, we can move in any time after July first, but moving in and actually getting started are two different things.
Wendy: Good point．Anyway, I have our new marketing manager, Helen Parker, helping us set up.
Lester: What is she doing？
Wendy: She's overseeing the purchase of equipment and so forth.
Lcster: Does she have a background in that sort of thing？
Wendy: As a matter of fact, it turns out she practically ran her last company , from marketing to finance.
Lester: I'm looking forward to meeting her.
Wendy: Have you begun to investigate factories？ I'm so glad we aren't going to try to run our own factory at first.
Lester: Yes, I've started．And I've found some good people for R and D, too．Then there are the art people designing our logos.
Wendy: Oh, no ! Millions of details: logos, slogans, letterhead, name cards…
Lester: You thought setting up a company was going to be easy？
A: I've come about your offer for bristles.
B: We have the offer ready for you． Let me see..． Here it is． 100 cases of Tsingtao Bristles, 57mm, at..． pounds sterling per kilogram, CIF European Main Ports, for shipment in June, 2009． The offer is valid for three days.
A: Why, your price has soared．It's almost 25 % higher than last year's． It would be impossible for us to push any sales at such a price.
B: I'm a little surprised to hear you say that． You know very well that market for bristles has gone up a great deal in recent months． The price we offer compares favourably with quotations you can get elsewhere.
A: I'm afraid I can't agree with you there． I must point out that your price is higher than some of the quotations we have received from other sources.
B: But you must take the quality into consideration． Everyone in the trade knows that China's bristles are of superior quality to those from other countries.
A: I agree that yours are of better quality． But there's competition from synthetic products, too． You can't ignore that prices for synthetic bristles haven't changed much over the years.
B: There's practically no substitute for bristles for certain uses． That's why demand for natural bristles keeps rising in spite of cheaper synthetic ones． To be frank with you, if it were not for the long-standing relationship between us, we would hardly be willing to make you a firm offer at this price.
A: Well, we'll have a lot of difficulties in persuading our clients to buy at this price． But I'll have to try, I suppose.

"Making money is a dirty game", says the Institute of Economic Affairs, summing up the attitude of British novelists towards business. The IEA, a free market think-tank, has just published a collection of essays (The Representation of Business in English Literature) by five academics chronicling the hostility of the country's men and women of letters to the sordid business of making money. The implication is that Britain's economic performance is retarded by an anti-industrial culture.
Rather than blaming rebellious workers and incompetent managers for Britain's economic worries. Then, we can put George Orwell and Martin Amis in the dock instead. From Dickens's Scrooge to Amis's John Self in his 1980s novel Money, novelists have conjured up a rogue's gallery of mean, greedy, amoral money-men that has alienated their impressionable readers from the noble pursuit of capitalism.
The argument has been well made before, most famously in 1981 by Martin Wiener. an American academic, in his English Culture and the Decline of the Industrial Spirit. Lady Thatcher was an admirer of Mr. Wiener's, and she led a crusade to revive the "entrepreneurial culture" which the liberal elite had allegedly trampled underfoot. The present Chancellor of the Exchequer, Gordon Brown, sounds as though he agrees with her. At a recent speech to the Confederation of British Industry, he declared that it should be the duty of every teacher in the country to "communicate the virtues of business and enterprise".
Certainly, most novelists are hostile to capitalism, but this refrain risks scapegoating writers for failings for which they are not to blame. Britain's culture is no more anti-business than that of other countries. The Romantic Movement. which started as a reaction against the industrial revolution of the 21st century, was born and flourished in Germany, but has not stopped the Germans from being Europe's most successful entrepreneurs and industrialists.
Even the Americans are guilty of blackening business's name. SMERSH and SPECTRE went our with the cold war, James Bond now takes on international media magnates rather than Rosa Kleb. His films such as Erin Brockovich have pitched downtrodden, moral heroes against the evil of faceless corporatism. Yet none of this seems to have dented America's lust for free enterprise.
The irony is that the novel flourished as an art form. only after, and as a result of the creation of the new commercial classes of Victorian England, just as the modern Hollywood film can exist only in an era of mass consumerism. Perhaps the moral is that capitalist societies consume literature and film to let off steam rather than to change the world.
In the first paragraph, the author introduces his topic by______.
A．posing a contract
B．justifying an assumption
C．making a comparison
D．explaining a phenomenon
It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random from the population, it is likely that their degrees of intelligence will be completely different. If, on the other hand, we take two identical twins, they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth.
Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We could soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all, are likely to have similar degrees of intelligence.
The writer is in favor of the view that man's intelligence is given to him ______.
A．at birth
B．through education
C．both at birth and through education
D．neither at birth nor though education
It is obvious that such uncomfortable feelings must affect people adversely. A person's self- concept is reflected in the way he or she behaves, and the way a person behaves affects other people's reactions. In general, the way people think about themselves has a great effect on all areas of their lives.
Shy people, having low self-esteem, are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others. They need reassurance (放心) that they are doing "the right thing". Shy people are very sensitive to criticism; they feel it confirms their inferiority (自卑). They also find it difficult to be pleased by compliments (赞扬) because they believe they are unworthy of praise. A shy person may respond to a compliment with a statement like this one, "You're just saying that to make me feel good. I know it's not true." It is clear that, while self-awareness is a healthy quality, overdoing it is harmful.
Can shyness be completely eliminated (消除), or at least reduced？ Fortunately, people can overcome shyness with determined and patient effort in building self-confidence. Since shyness goes hand in hand with lack of self-esteem, it is important for people to accept their weaknesses as well as their strengths.People's expectations of themselves must be realistic. Living on the impossible leads to a sense of inadequacy.
Each one of us is a unique, worthwhile individual. We are interested in our own personal ways. The better we understand ourselves, the easier it becomes to live up to our full potential. Let's not allow shyness to block our chances for a rich and fulfilling life.
The first paragraph is mainly about ______.
A．the characteristics of shy people
B．the cause of shyness
C．the questions in the minds of shy people
D．the effect of shyness on people
