It’s a dog-eat-dog world and in the UK there’s enough exhaustion around to make it look like an epidemic. Every year, a mountain of surveys and reports centers on stress---- the disease of the modern world.
November 6 was Britain’s fifth annual National Stress Awareness Day. In our “grab-it-all-now” culture, three out of every 10 workers in the UK suffer from depression, stress or burnout, according to a United Nations report.
Women suffer more than men. Today, says Herbert Freudenberger, author of “ Women’s Burnout and Burnout”. The High Cost of High Achievement, “ I’m seeing more women with symptoms of burnout . ”
Why is this? “ In part, I think this is due to the multi-role lives they now lead-as mothers, wives and professionals.” Equal opportunities for men and women in our society have given women double the responsibilities. They suffer from chronic fatigue trying to pursue careers while at the same time running their home. Some women blame their employer, their partner at housework, or themselves, but more than half accept that this is “just the way life is now.”
Not to be left out, women’s magazines haven’t hesitated to cash in on this. Good Housekeeping magazine has not been too shy to indulge in gloomy statistics, such as: More than half of the British women lie awake at night because of stress.
But it’s not only working mothers who suffer from burnout. Young unmarried professionals are also feeling the strain of increasingly competitive and globalized lifestyles.
Nicola Moule, 26, was a marketing consultant in London. She was hit by a rare illness and could not work for a year. Moule says it was caused by burnout. “ I think my subconscious was telling me that what I was doing didn’t suit me. I had been putting too much pressure on myself to be successful and trying to keep up with London life. You just get on with it.” But if “getting on with it” also means getting ill it could be that our very development heads to our downfall.

[1] Most gift-giving shows nothing more than the spirit of love and friendship. But it is possible to form some associations between the kinds of things bought and the people who buy them.
[2] Clothing The clothes you wear tell something about your personality. They tell the world not only how you want to be seen but how you see yourself as well. When someone gives you something to wear that corresponds to your self-image, they’re saying, “ I agree with you. I like you the way you are.” Such a gift should be taken as a form of compliment. On the other hand, a gift of clothing that does not match your personality could be an insult to your character.
[3] Expensive gifts Naturally, some gifts like jewellry will be more expensive than others. But some people give higher priced gifts than necessary for the situation. Someone who gives an expensive gift often feels that he should receive more praise than if he had given a less expensive gift. Therefore he is giving himself a gift, too: status.
[4] Homemade gifts Making something by hand become the exception on many countries today--- so much so that giving a homemade gift is sometimes considered extraordinary. If you receive a homemade gift, you’re lucky. It may not be made perfectly, but it will show a certain quality of love. No matter what the results of the homemade gift look like, remember it’s the thought that counts.
[5] Books People who gives books as gifts either like reading or would like everyone to think they do. A good way to know this is to find out whether or not the giver bought the book according to how large it is. If you happen to receive a large heavy book, its giver may be much more interested in the way things appear than in the way they actually are. Anyhow, giving a book can be a way of sharing a feeling or a newly learned meaning. The giver is probably trying to say to you what the book said to him.
1). Which of the following best expresses the main idea of this passage?
A.
Gift-giving may reveal the giver’s personality in some way.
B.
Most gift-giving shows the spirit of love and friendship.

Homemade gifts are more precious than expensive ones.

The family is changing. In the past, grandparents, parents and children used to live together; in other words, they had an “extended family”. Sometimes two or more brothers with their wives and children were part of this large family group. But family structure is changing throughout the world. The “nuclear family” consists of only one father, one mother and children; it is becoming the main family structure everywhere.
The nuclear family offers married women some advantages: they have freedom from their relatives, and the husband does not have all the power of the family. Family structure in most parts of the world is still “patriarchal”; that is, the father is the head of the family and makes most of the important decisions. Studies show, however, that in nuclear families, men and women usually make an equal number of decisions about family life. Also, well-educated husbands and wives often prefer to share the power.
But wives usually have to “pay” for the benefits of freedom and power. When women lived in extended families, sisters, grandmothers and aunts helped one another with housework and child care. In addition, older women in a large family group had important positions. Wives in nuclear families do not enjoy this benefit, and they have another disadvantage, too. Women generally live longer than their husbands, so older women from nuclear families often have to live alone.
Studies show that women are generally less satisfied with marriage than men are. In the past, men worked outside the home and women inside. Housework and child care were a full-time job, and there was no time for anything else. Of course, this situation is changing. Women now work outside the home and seem to have more freedom than they did in the past. Why, then, are some women still discontent?
In most parts of the world today, women work because the family needs more money. However, their outside jobs often give them less freedom, not more, because they still have to do most of the housework. The women actually have two full-time jobs---one outside the home and another inside--- and not much free time.
The nuclear family will probably continue to be the main family form of the future. Change, however, usually brings disadvantages along with benefits, and the family forms of the past had many advantages.

Some radio signals are reflected when they meet solid objects; for example, television signals are reflected when they meet walls and houses, and when meet an aircraft in the sky. The picture is not clear when the signals are reflected like this. When a plane is flying near the house, the picture on the television screen sometimes dances about in a very troublesome way.
These reflections, which led Watt to the science of radar, are now used a great deal. Radar instruments can show the direction and distance of aircraft. The signal are reflected only when the instrument points at the aircraft; this shows the direction. How do we find the distance?
Electromagnetic waves travel at a speed of 186,300 miles per second. We know when the signal is sent out; we notice when it is received back. The signal takes a small part of a second to go and return, but this time is known. So we know the distance from the ground to the plane.
Radar is very important to ships on the sea. In most big ships, a radar instrument is always watching the sea on all sides. If any other ship reflects its signal, a white spot is shown on a screen on board. Big aircraft also use radar. The instrument finds other aircraft in the sky. A man’s eye is not good enough to do this because it cannot see far enough; but the radar beam can see for many miles.

A. television signals
B.
solid objects reflecting television signals

the reflection of the radio signals

by watching it on the screen
D. by reflecting signals from the plane

November 6 was Britain’s fifth annual National Stress Awareness Day. In our “grab-it-all-now” culture, three out of every 10 workers in the UK suffer from depression, stress or burnout, according to a United Nations report.
Women suffer more than men. Today, says Herbert Freudenberger, author of “ Women’s Burnout and Burnout”. The High Cost of High Achievement, “ I’m seeing more women with symptoms of burnout . ”

They suffer from chronic fatigue trying to pursue careers while at the same time running their home. Some women blame their employer, their partner at housework, or themselves, but more than half accept that this is “just the way life is now.”
Not to be left out, women’s magazines haven’t hesitated to cash in on this. Good Housekeeping magazine has not been too shy to indulge in gloomy statistics, such as: More than half of the British women lie awake at night because of stress.

Moule says it was caused by burnout. “ I think my subconscious was telling me that what I was doing didn’t suit me. I had been putting too much pressure on myself to be successful and trying to keep up with London life. You just get on with it.” But if “getting on with it” also means getting ill it could be that our very development heads to our downfall.

[4] Homemade gifts Making something by hand become the exception on many countries today--- so much so that giving a homemade gift is sometimes considered extraordinary. If you receive a homemade gift, you’re lucky. It may not be made perfectly, but it will show a certain quality of love. No matter what the results of the homemade gift look like, remember it’s the thought that counts.
[5] Books People who gives books as gifts either like reading or would like everyone to think they do. A good way to know this is to find out whether or not the giver bought the book according to how large it is. If you happen to receive a large heavy book, its giver may be much more interested in the way things appear than in the way they actually are. Anyhow, giving a book can be a way of sharing a feeling or a newly learned meaning. The giver is probably trying to say to you what the book said to him.

The family is changing. In the past, grandparents, parents and children used to live together; in other words, they had an “extended family”. Sometimes two or more brothers with their wives and children were part of this large family group. But family structure is changing throughout the world. The “nuclear family” consists of only one father, one mother and children; it is becoming the main family structure everywhere.
The nuclear family offers married women some advantages: they have freedom from their relatives, and the husband does not have all the power of the family. Family structure in most parts of the world is still “patriarchal”; that is, the father is the head of the family and makes most of the important decisions. Studies show, however, that in nuclear families, men and women usually make an equal number of decisions about family life. Also, well-educated husbands and wives often prefer to share the power.
But wives usually have to “pay” for the benefits of freedom and power. When women lived in extended families, sisters, grandmothers and aunts helped one another with housework and child care. In addition, older women in a large family group had important positions. Wives in nuclear families do not enjoy this benefit, and they have another disadvantage, too. Women generally live longer than their husbands, so older women from nuclear families often have to live alone.
Studies show that women are generally less satisfied with marriage than men are. In the past, men worked outside the home and women inside. Housework and child care were a full-time job, and there was no time for anything else. Of course, this situation is changing. Women now work outside the home and seem to have more freedom than they did in the past. Why, then, are some women still discontent?
In most parts of the world today, women work because the family needs more money. However, their outside jobs often give them less freedom, not more, because they still have to do most of the housework. The women actually have two full-time jobs---one outside the home and another inside--- and not much free time.
The nuclear family will probably continue to be the main family form of the future. Change, however, usually brings disadvantages along with benefits, and the family forms of the past had many advantages.

Some radio signals are reflected when they meet solid objects; for example, television signals are reflected when they meet walls and houses, and when meet an aircraft in the sky. The picture is not clear when the signals are reflected like this. When a plane is flying near the house, the picture on the television screen sometimes dances about in a very troublesome way.
These reflections, which led Watt to the science of radar, are now used a great deal. Radar instruments can show the direction and distance of aircraft. The signal are reflected only when the instrument points at the aircraft; this shows the direction. How do we find the distance?
Electromagnetic waves travel at a speed of 186,300 miles per second. We know when the signal is sent out; we notice when it is received back. The signal takes a small part of a second to go and return, but this time is known. So we know the distance from the ground to the plane.
Radar is very important to ships on the sea. In most big ships, a radar instrument is always watching the sea on all sides. If any other ship reflects its signal, a white spot is shown on a screen on board. Big aircraft also use radar. The instrument finds other aircraft in the sky. A man’s eye is not good enough to do this because it cannot see far enough; but the radar beam can see for many miles.
