　　答案　C“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（估計(jì)）that 75 to 90 percent of all visits to primary care physicians are for stress related problems.”

　　It is no exaggeration（夸張）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

　　答案解析：答案為B。本題為推理題。本文的內(nèi)容是為了揭示世界上人們的工作壓力非常大，對(duì)健康造成了威脅，因此作者在開(kāi)頭使用“America’s No.1 Health Problem”是為了引入壓力的話題，故答案為B。

　　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

　　答案解析：答案為B。本題為細(xì)節(jié)推理題。由第二段 “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%).” 可知，工作和家庭生活中的壓力比重最大，故B選項(xiàng)正確，C選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤。

　　由第一段 “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.”可知，癌癥和艾滋病沒(méi)有壓力帶給健康的威脅那么嚴(yán)重的情況是在美國(guó)，不具有普遍性，故A選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤。第三段揭示了英國(guó)人的工作壓力非常大，第四段的首句理解是關(guān)鍵 “The picture is no less bleak in mainland Europe.” 意為“歐洲大陸的情況依舊不容樂(lè)觀”，故D選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤。

　　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

　　答案解析：答案為C。本題為推理題。最后一段揭示了亞洲的壓力情況，由該段的最后一句話 “These countries now have a lot of concerns on job stress and its harmful effects on workers’ health.” 可知，一些亞洲國(guó)家的工作壓力也影響了人們的健康，故C選項(xiàng)正確，B選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤，經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展不是壓力的主要原因，壓力來(lái)自工作。A、D選項(xiàng)未提，均不選。
