1、15 Million Americans Suffer from Social Anxiety DisorderSocial anxiety disｏｒｃｅｒprevents some 15 million Americans from leading normal social ａｎｄ　romantic lives, a new survey finds.The disｏｒｃｅｒleaves many isolated, ashamed ａｎｄ　often misdiagnosed. Thirty-six percent of those with social anxiety disｏｒｃｅｒhave symptoms fｏｒ10 years ｏｒmore before seeking help, the Anxiety Disorders Association of America reports."Social anxiety disｏｒｃｅｒis when somebody has an intense, persistent ａｎｄ　irrational fear of social ｏｒperformance situations," Jerilyn Ross, the association\'s president ａｎｄ　CEO, said during a teleconference Wednesday."The condition causes people to avoid common, everyday situations ａｎｄ　even other people fｏｒfear of being judged ｏｒcriticized ｏｒhumiliated ｏｒembarrassing themselves," Ross said.Social anxiety disｏｒｃｅｒcan interfere with daily routines ａｎｄ　job performance, Ross noted.

Pollack, directｏｒof the Center fｏｒAnxiety ａｎｄ　Traumatic Stress Disorders ａｎｄ　a professｏｒof psychiatry at Harvard Medical School, said during the teleconference."This is a disｏｒｃｅｒthat starts affecting people early on," Pollack said.

2、Breast Cancer Deaths Record LowThe number of women dying from breast cancer has fallen to a record low by dropping under 12,000 a year fｏｒthe first time since records began.The Cancer Research UK data showed that 11,990 women died in the UK in 2007.The previous lowest figure had been recorded in 1971-the year records began after which it rose steadily year by year until the late 1980s.ProfessｏｒPeter Johnson, Cancer Research UK\'s chief clinician said, "It\'s incredibly encouraging to see fewer women dying from breast cancer now than at any time in the last 40 years, despite breast cancer being diagnosed more often. "Research has played a crucial role in this progress leading to improved treatments ａｎｄ　better management fｏｒwomen with the disease."The introduction of the NHS (国民保健制度) breast screening program has also contributed as women are more likely to survive the earlier cancer is diagnosed. "Breast cancer is now the most common cancer in the UK with 45,500 women every year diagnosed with the disease, a 50% rise in 25 years.The number of deaths peaked in 1989, when 15,625 women died. It then fell by between 200 ａｎｄ　400 deaths each year until 2004.There was a slight rise in 2005 ａｎｄ　then two years of falls.Dr Sarah Cant, policy manager at Breakthrough Breast Cancer, said, "It is great news that fewer women are dying from breast cancer ａｎｄ　highlights the impact of improved treatments, breast screening ａｎｄ　awareness of the disease. " ."However, this is still too many women ａｎｄ　incidence of the disease is increasing year by year."The rising rate of breast cancer diagnosis has been put down to a variety of factors including obesity（肥胖） ａｎｄ　alcohol consumption.Fewer women died from breast canc\'er in the UK in 2005 than in 2004.【单选题】

A.Right

B.Wrong

C.Not mentioned

正确答案:B

答案解析:2005年死于乳腺癌的患者少于2004年。根据倒数第四段中：There was a slight rise in2005，可以推断该论断是错误的。

3、Smoking Can Increase Depressive Symptoms in TeensWhile some teenagers may puff on cigarettes to "self-medicate" against the blues, scientists at the University of Toronto ａｎｄ　the University of Montreal have found that smoking may actually increasedepressive symptoms in some teens."This observational study is one of the few to examine the perceived emotional benefits of smoking among teens," says lead researcher Michael Chaiton, a research associate at the Ontario Tobacco Research Unit of the University of Toronto." Although cigarettes may appear to have self-medicating effects ｏｒto improve mood, in the long term we found that teens who started to smoke reported higher depressive symptoms. "As part of the study, some 662 high school teenagers completed up to 20 questionnaires about their use of cigarettes to affect mood. Secondary schools were selected to provide a mix of French ａｎｄ　English participants, urban ａｎｄ　rural schools, ａｎｄ　schools located in high, moderate ａｎｄ　low socioeconomic neighborhoods. Participants were divided into three groups: never smokers; smokers who did not use cigarettes to self-medicate, improve mood ｏｒphysical state; smokers who used cigarettes to self-medicate. Depressive symptoms were measured using a scale that asked how felt too fired to do things: had trouble going to sleep ｏｒstaying asleep; felt unhappy, sad, ｏｒdepressed; felt hopeless about the future; felt vexed, antsy ｏｒtense; ａｎｄ　worried too much about things."Smokers who used cigarettes as mood improvers had higher risks of elevated depressive symptoms than teens who had never smoked," says co-researcher Jennifer O\'Loughlin, a professｏｒat the University of Montreal Department of Social ａｎｄ　Preventive Medicine. "Our study found that teen smokers who reported emotional benefits from smoking are at higher risk of developing depressive symptoms."The ____ between depression ａｎｄ　smoking exists principally among teens that use cigarettes to feel better. "It\'s important to emphasize that depressive symptom scores were higher among teenagers who reported emotional benefits from smoking after they began to smoke," says Dr. Chaiton.【单选题】

A.difference

B.association

C.cooperation

D.agreement

正确答案:B

答案解析:从上下文判断，本句指的是depression和smoking之间的联系，不会是它们之间的差异(difference)、合作(cooperation)或一致性(agreement)。association的词义是“联系”，所以是答案。

4、Nurse! I Want My MummyWhen a child is ill in hospital, a parent\'s first reaction is to be with them.Most hospitals now allow parents to sleep overnight with their child, providing a bed ｏｒsofa on the ward.But until the 1970s this ____ was not only frowned upon (不赞同) — it was actively discouraged. Staff worried that the children would be upｓｅｔwhen their parents left, ａｎｄ　so there was a blanket (通用的) ban.A concerned nurse, Pamela Hawthorn, disagreed ａｎｄ　her study "Nurse, I want my mummy!" published in 1974, changed the face "paediatric (儿科的) nursing.Martin Johnson, a professｏｒof nursing at the University of Salford, said that the work of nurses like Pamela had changed the face of patient care."Pamela\'s study was done against the background of a lively debate in paediatrics ａｎｄ　psychology as to the degree women should spend with children in the outside world ａｎｄ　the degree to which they should be allowed to visit children in hospital.""The idea was that if mum came to visita small child in hospital the child would be upｓｅｔａｎｄ　inconsolable (无法安慰的) fｏｒhours. ""Yet the nurse noticed that if mum did not come at all the child stayed in a relatively stable state but they might be depressed. ""Of course we know now that they had almost given up hope that mum was ever coming back.""To avoid a little bit of pain they said that no one should visit.""But children were alone ａｎｄ　depressed, so Hawthorn said parents should be allowed to visit."Dr. Peter Carter, chief executive ａｎｄ　general secretary of the Royal College of Nursing, said her work had been seminal (开创性的)."Her research put an end to the days when parents handed their children over to strangers at the doｏｒof the hospital ward.""As a result of her work, parents are now recognized as partners in care ａｎｄ　are afforded the opportunity to stay with their children while they are in hospital, which has dramatically improved both parents\' ａｎｄ　children\'s experience of care." 【单选题】
