2、family with.Why are many finding it increasingly difficult to start and sustain intimate relationships Does modern life really make it harder to fall in love Or are we making it harder for ourselves It is certainly the case today that contemporary couples benefit in different ways from relationships
3、.Women no longer rely upon partners for economic security or status.A man doesnt expect his spouse to be in sole charge of running his household and raising his children.But perhaps the knowledge that we can live perfectly well without a partnership means that it takes much more to persuade people t
4、o abandon their independence.In theory,finding a partner should be much simpler these days.Only a few generations ago,your choice of soulmate （心上人） was constrained by geography,social convention and family tradition.Although it was never explicit,many marriages were essentially arranged.Now those ba
5、rriers have been broken down.You can approach a builder or a brain surgeon in any bar in any city on any given evening.When the world is your oyster （牡蛎）,you surely have a better chance of finding a pearl.But it seems that the old conventions have been replaced by an even tighter constraint:the tyra
6、nny of choice.The expectations of partners are inflated to an unmanageable degree:good looks,impressive salary,kind to grandmother,and right socks.There is no room for error in the first impression.We think that a relationship can be perfect.If it isnt,it is disposable.We work to protect ourselves a
7、gainst future heartache and dont put in the hard emotional labor needed to build a strong relationship.Of course,this is complicated by realities.The cost of housing and child-rearing creates pressure to have a stable income and career before a life partnership.Which of the following is NOT expected
8、 of a partner according to this passageAGood looks.BAn impressive career.CA high salary.DA fine sense of humor. 2.American DreamsThere is a common response to America among foreign writers:the US is a land of extremes where the best of things qre just as easily found as the worst.This is a cliche（陈词
9、滥调）.In the land of black and white,people should not be too surprised to find some of the biggest gaps between the rich and the poor in the world.But the American Dream offers a way out to everyone.（46） No class system or govemment stands in the way.Sadly,this old argument is no longer true.Over the
10、 past few decades there has been a fundamental shift in the structure of the American economy.The gap between the rich and the poor has widened and widened.（47）Over the past 25 years the median US family income has gone up 18 per cent.For the top 1 per cent,however,it has gone up 200 per cent.Twenty
11、-five years ago the top fifth of Americans had an average income 6.7 times that of the bottom fifth.（48）Inequalities have grown worse in different regions.In California,incomes for lower class families have fallen by 4 per cent since 1969.（49） This has led to an economy hugely in favor of a small gr
12、oup of very rich Americans.The wealthiest 1 per cent of households now control a third of the national wealth.There are now 37 million Americans living in poverty.At 12.7 per cent of the population,it is the highest percentage in the developed world.Yet the tax burden on Americas rich is falling,not
13、 growing.（50） There was an economic theory holding that the rich spending more would benefit everyone as a whole.But clearly that theory has not worked in reality.A、Nobody is poor in the US.B、The top 0.01 per cent of households has seen its tax bite fall by a full 25 percentage points since 1980.C、F
14、or upper class families they have risen 41 per cent.D、Now it is 9.8 times.E、As it does so,the possibility to cross that gap gets smaller and smaller.F、All one has to do is to work hard and climb the ladder towards the top. 3.第二篇Chronic Diseases:The Worlds Leading KillerChronic diseases are the leadi
15、ng cause of death in the world.Yet health experts say these conditions are often the most preventable.Chronic diseases include heart disease,stroke,cancer,diabetes（糖尿病）and lung disorders.The World Health Organization says chronic diseases lead to about seventeen million early deaths each year.This U
16、nited Nations agency expects more than three hundred eighty million people to die of chronic diseases by two thousand fifteen.It says about eighty percent of the deaths will happen in developing nations.The WHO says chronic diseases now cause two-thirds of all deaths in the Asia-Pacific area.In ten
17、years it could be almost three-fourths.People are getting sick in their most economically productive years.In fact,experts say chronic diseases are killing more middle-aged people in poorer countries than in wealthier ones.The WHO estimates that chronic diseases will cost China alone more than five
18、hundred thousand million dollars in the next ten years.That estimate represents the costs of medical treatment and lost productivity.Russia and lndia are also expected to face huge economic losses.Kim Hak-Su is the head of the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific.La
19、st ween in Bangkok he presented a WHO report on the problem.It says deaths from chronic diseases have increased largely as the result of economic gains in many countries.The report details the latest findings from nine countries.They include Brazil,Britain,Canada,China,India and Nigeria.The others a
20、re Pakistan,Russia and Tanzania.Mister Kim says infectious and parasitic（寄生的）diseases have until recently been the main killers in Asia and the Pacific.But he says they are no longer the major cause of death in most countries.Health officials say as many as eighty percent of deaths from chronic dise
21、ases could be prevented.They say an important tool for governments is to restrict the marketing of alcohol and tobacco to young people.Also,more programs are needed to urge healthy eating and more physical activity.UN officials aim through international action to reduce chronic-disease deaths by two
22、 percent each year through two thousand fifteen.They say meeting that target could save thirty-six million lives.That includes twenty-five million in Asia and the Pacific.Until recently the main killers in Asia and the Pacific have beenAeconomic gains.Blost productivity.Cchronic diseases.Dinfectious
23、 and parasitic diseases. 4.Facts about Stroke1Every 45 seconds,someone in America has a stroke.Every 3.1 minutes,someone dies of one.Stroke killed an estimated 167,661 people in 2000 and is the nations third leading cause of death,ranking behind diseases of the heart and all forms of cancer.Stroke i
24、s a leading cause of serious,long-term disability in the United States.2Stroke is a type of cardiovascular（心血管的）disease.It affects the arteries（动脉）leading to and within the brain.A stroke occurs when a blood vessel that carries oxygen and nutrients（营养物）to the brain is either blocked by a clot（凝块）or
25、bursts.When that happens,part of the brain cannot get the blood（and oxygen）it needs,so it starts to die.3The brain is an extremely complex organ that controls various body functions.If a stroke occurs and blood flow cant reach the region that controls a particular body function,that part of the body
26、 wont work as it should.If the stroke occurs toward the back of the brain,for instance,its likely that some disability involving vision will result.The effects of a stroke depend primarily on the location of the obstruction（阻塞）and the extent of brain tissue affected.4The American Stroke Association
27、has identified several factors that increase the risk of stroke.The more risk factors a person has,the greater the chance that he or she will have a stroke.Some of these you cant control,such as increasing age,family health history,race,and prior stroke.But you can change or treat other risk factors
28、 to lower your risk.Factors resulting from lifestyle or environment can be modified with a healthcare providers help.Some of these include:high blood pressure,current smoking,heart disease,and high red blood cell count.5A stroke can happen to anyone at any moment.In fact about 600,000 people have st
29、rokes every year.For many years,there was no hope for those suffering a stroke.However,recent breakthroughs have led to new treatments.For the treatments to work,the person must get to a hospital immediately.23.Paragraph 2.24.Paragraph 3.25.Paragraph 4.26.Paragraph 5.AEffects of a strokeBAnnual cost

31、 Ellen was there for her-helping her through the terror,and the fear,and the thousand questions that are inevitably a part of hearing the wordcancer.Fortunately,a friend at work who had had a similar diagnosis highly recommended Alonzo Walker,MD,Medical College of Wisconsin surgical oncologist（外科肿瘤学
32、家）and director of the Froedtert & Medical College of Wisconsin Breast Cancer Program.Joyce made an appointment.At an initial consultation,Dr.Walker spent two hours with Joyce and her husband.Joyce was so reassured;she cancelled her appointment to get a second opinion elsewhere.Ultimately,Joyces canc
33、er required a mastectomy（乳房切除术）.Reconstructive surgery took place right away.She came to think of Dr.Walker as her partner,not just my doctor.And the Froedtert nurses,she says,werevery unusual and impressive.As it turned out,Joyce would soon have the chance to do something important for her sister M
34、ary Ellen.During her own cancer treatment,Joyce suggested that Mary Ellen should get herself checked through the Froedtert & Medical College of Wisconsin Breast Cancer Program.In addition to its opportunities for examination and screening,the hospital had established a program especially for women i
35、n families at high risk for cancer.Sure enough,it turned our that Mary Ellen had some cysts（囊肿）,one of which was dangerous enough that it needed to be surgically removed.Shes fine now-thanks to Joyces suggestion.Both sisters experienced firsthand how Froedtert & Medical College of Wisconsin offers m
36、ore than leading-edge technology and the unmatched experience of physicians in an academic medical center.It offers a comrehensive team approach-of consultation,collaboration,and care-all focused on the individual patient.Thats why Joyce came to think of Froedtert,throughout the process of her treat
37、ment,as being her security blanket.Joyce Sipes has been cancer-free five years now-an important milestone（里程碑）for breast cancer survivors.Joyce and Mary Ellen are together once again in their workshop in Joyces home,making the beautiful market baskets,bread baskets,muffin（松饼）baskets,and Nantucket ba
38、skets that they-and their customers-love.Which is NOT true of Froedtert & Medical College of Wisconsin AIt does not care much about the individual patient.BIt offers more than leading-edge technology.CIts physicians have unique experience.DIt adopts a comprehensive team approach. 6.World Heart DaySu
