单选题. Stress may be defined as the response of the body to any demand. Whenever people experience something pleasant or unpleasant, we say they are under stress. We call the pleasant kind "eustress", the unpleasant kind "distress". People sometimes compare our life with that of the caveman who didn't have to worry about the stock market or the atomic bomb. They forget that the caveman worried about being eaten by a bear or about dying of hunger—things that few people worry about today. It's not that people suffer more stress today; it's just that they think they do. It is inconceivable that anyone should have no stress at all. Most people who are ambitious and want to accomplish something live on stress. They need it. But excessive stress is by all means harmful. Worse, chronic exposure to stress over a long time may cause more serious diseases and may actually shorten your life. The most frequent causes of distress in man are psychological—lack of adaptability, not having a code of behavior. So the secret of coping with stress is not to avoid it, but to do what you like to do and what you are made to do, at your own rate. For most people, it is really a matter of learning how to behave in various situations. The most important thing is to have a code of life, to know how to live.1. The modern man is suffering ______.

单选题Participation in classroom is not only accepted but also expected of the students in many courses. Some professors base part of the final grade on the students oral participation. Although there are formal lectures during which the student has a passive role (i.e. listening and taking notes), many courses are organized around classroom discussions, student questions, and informal lectures. In graduate seminars the professor has a managerial role and the students make presentations and lead discussions. The students do the actual teaching in these seminars. A professors teaching style is another factor that determines the degree and type of student participation. Some professors prefer to control discussion while others prefer to guide the class without dominating it. Many professors encourage students to question and challenge their ideas; students who make assertions that contradict the professors point of view should be prepared to supply evidence to their positions. In the teaching of science and mathematics, the dominant mode of instruction is generally traditional, with teachers presenting formal lectures and students taking notes. However, new educational trends have emerged in the humanities and social sciences in the past two decades. Students in education, sociology, and psychology classes, for example, are often required to solve problems in groups, design projects, make presentations, and examine case studies. Since some college or university courses are applied rather than theoretical, they stress doing and involvement. 1. Participation in the classroom is not only accepted but also expected of the students in many courses except in ______.

单选题. Everyone loves to eat! People in every country enjoy this activity, There are so many different kinds of food in the world—Chinese food, Italian food, South American food, Indian food, and many others. It's fun to eat and compare, different types of cuisine, ltalian food is sometimes very spicy, but South American food is usually much spicier. Indian food can be the spiciest of all—sometimes it's so hot that it can make your mouth burn! But that's okay because then you can drink some good Italian or French wine to reduce the burning! Some wonderful food comes from the Eastern countries. Chinese food is popular in many parts of the world. Lots of people love Chinese style vegetables because they are so crispy. Because Chinese-style vegetables are usually cooked for a much shorter time, they are crisper than American-style vegetables. In fact, they are probably the crispest cooked vegetables you can find. Some people don't like American-style food. They think it is often less tasty and sometimes less nutritious than food in other countries. Americans spend nearly half their food dollars on meals away from home. They eat more "fast food", such as hamburgers, hot dogs, pizzas, canned and frozen food, for fast food takes a short time to prepare. Often, Americans feel they are too busy to spend a lot of time cooking. It's easier to pick up a pack of fried chicken on the way home from work or take the familiy out for pizzas or burgers than to start opening cans or heating up frozen dinners after a long, hard day. Of course, in some other countries, like France, cooking is still an "art form". Some people believe that French cuisine is the best in the world. Certainly, each person has a different opinion, about which country has the tastiest food. But people in many places agree that French food is the most delicious and the best prepared.1.
