"Firstly,stress is healthy," says Wolfgang Stehling fromEltvelle.The doctor and management consultant says： "It occurs when the body loses its inner balance,but then stress hormones are produced to re-establish the balance." Thusstress is nothing more than a positive reaction of the bodyto pressure.It is unavoidable as part of our nature： "There is no such thing as a stress-free life."But whether stress leads to tensions in the mind or .totenseness of the muscles depends on the duration （持续时间）,its cause or causes and the sufferer's personalsituation.People who have trouble sleeping or suffer from badmoods or simply the flu will not be on top of the world andwill take every little strife as negativestress.Others,people who feel refreshed at every new turn,arerelaxed and successful,will view a difficult round ofnegotiations or competition at work more as a positivechallenge than a cross to bear.Exercise,healthy eating and relaxation are thus the threepillars by which stress can be conquered almost everytime.These factors form a unit,explains Marita Voelker-Albert,spokeswoman for the government's Nutrition AdviceCenter in Cologne.Its campaign "Gut Drauf' （Feeling Good）is targeted at young people.The government agency's researchsuggests that three out of four adolescents feeltired,overtaxed （负担过重） and under stress.Eatingdisorders and complaints such as migraines （偏头痛） and indigestion （消化不良）,nervousness and concentrationproblems have increased among 12- to 16-year-olds.But even the best solutions don't work if they are notput into practice,says Stehling.Anybody who goes joggingregularly,practices yoga （瑜伽功） and prescribes goodliterature as a cure for negative stress,may well end upunder more pressure as he tries to find the time for itall.Sometimes,says the consultant,it helps to take time outto reduce stress levels over a weekend.6 Which of the following is NOT a correct view on stress？A Stress has both positive and negative aspects.B Stress is only a positive reaction of the body topressure.C Stress is unavoidable as part of our nature.D Stress only leads to serious problems.7 A person who has lost his inner balance may soon feelA fit and healthy.B under-or overworked.C irritated,tired and exhausted.D relaxed and happy.8 Who will easily take every little strife as negative stress？A Those who are in good moods.B Those who suffer from the flu.C Those who are successful.D Those who feel refreshed at every new turn.9 All the following complaints are said to have increased among children aged 12 to 16 EXPECTA painful headache.B indigestion.C loss of memory.D nervousness and concentration problems.10 Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a possible cure for negative stress？A Reading good literature.B Practicing yoga.C Working overtime.D Having a healthy diet.[参考答案]6.D 7.C 8.B 9.C 10.C。

2020年职称英语卫生类A级阅读理解练习题及答案(2) The Best Way to Reduce Your WeightYou hear this：“No wonder you are fat.All you ever do is eat.”You feel sad：“I skip my breakfast and supper.I run every morning and evening.What else can I do?”Basically you can do nothing.Your genes，not your life habits，determine your weight and your body constantly tries to maintain it.Albert Stunkard of the University of Pennsylvania found from experiments that，“80 percent of the children of two obese parents become obese，as compared with no more than 14 percent of the offspring of two parents of norm al weight.”How can obese people become normal or even thin through dieting?Well，dieting can be effective，but the health costs are tremendous.Jules Hirsch，a research physician at Rockefeller University，did a study of eight fat people.They were given a liquid formula providing 600 calories aday1.After more than 10 weeks，the subjects lost 45kg on average.But after leaving the hospital，they all regained.The results were surprising：by metabolic measurement，fat people who lost large amounts of weight seemed like they were starving.They had psychiatric problems.They dreamed of foodor breaking their diet2.They were anxious and depressed;some were suicidal.They hid food in their rooms.Researchers warn that it is possible that weight reduction doesn’t result in normal weight，but in an abnormal state resembling that of starved non-obese people.Thin people，however，suffer from the opposite：They have to make a great effort to gain weight.Ethan Sims，of theUniversity of Vermont，got prisoners to volunteer to gain weight.In four to six months，they ate as much as they could.They succeeded in increasing their weight by 20 to 25 percent.But months after the study ended，they were back to normal weight and stayed there.This did not mean that people are completely without hope in controlling their weight.It means that those who tend to be fat will have to constantly battle their genetic inheritance if they want to significantly lower their weight.The findings also provide evidence for something scientists thought was true-each person has a comfortable weight range3.The range might be as much as 9kg.Someone might weigh 60-69kg without too much effort.But going above or below the natural weight range is difficult.The body resists by feeling hungry or full and changing the metabolism to push the weight back to the range it seeks.词汇：skip/skIp/v.跳过 obese/Eu5bi：s/adi.肥胖的metabolic/metE5bClIk/adj.新陈代谢的psychiatric/7saIkI5Atrik/adj.精神病的abnormal/Ab5nC：ml/adj.异常的注释：1.

2020职称英语卫生类考试阅读判断习题（2）Health care in the US is well-known but very expensive. Paying the doctor's bill after a major illness or accident can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.In the US,a person's company,not the government,pays for health insurance.Employers have contracts with insurance companies,which pay for all or part of employees' doctors' bills.The amount that the insurance company will pay out to a patient differs wildly. It all depends on what insurance the employer pays. The less the boss pays to the insurance company,the more the employee has to pay the hospital each time he or she gets sick. In 2004,the average worker paid an extra US$558 a year,according to a San Francisco report.The system also means many Americans fall through the cracks （遭遗漏）.In 2004,only 61 per cent of the population received health insurance through their employers,according to the report. The unemployed,self-employed,part-time workers and graduated students with no jobs were not included.Most US university students have a gap between their last day of school and their first day on the job. Often,they are no longer protected by their parents' insurance because they are now considered independent adults. They also cannot buy university health insurance because they are no longer students.Another group that falls through the gap of the US system is international students. All are required to have healthinsurance and cannot begin their classes without it. But exact policies （保险单） differ from school to school.Most universities work with health insurance companies and sell their own standard plan for students Often,buying the school plan is required,but luckily it's also cheaper than buying direct from the insurance company.1 In the US,a person's company buys him or her health insurance.A RightB WrongC Not mentioned2 All employees in the US have the same kind of health insurance.A RightB WrongC Not mentioned3 In 2004,most of the unemployed in the US were women.A RightB WrongC Not mentioned4 In the US,graduated students with no jobs can buy university health insurance.A RightB WrongC Not mentioned5 All international students in the US have to buy health insurance.A RightB WrongC Not mentioned6 The international students in the US work harder than the American students.A RightB WrongC Not mentioned7 The health care system in the US takes care of everyone in the country.A RightB WrongC Not mentioned参考答案：16.

2020年职称英语综合类阅读判断练习及答案（2）Stem Cell Therapy May Help Repair the HeartAccording to scientists in the USA,stem cell therapy may one day be able to repair the hearts of people with heart failure.Researchers at Pittsburgh University School of Medicine examined 20 patients who had severe heart failure and were going to have surgery.They injected stem cells into the parts of their hearts that were damaged.They then compared their hearts with those of people who had undergone surgery without having the stem cells injected into them(they had also suffered from severe heart failure).The patients who had the stem cells injected had hearts that were able to pump(用泵抽水)more blood than the others.According to Professor Robert Kormos,one of,the researchers,these results could revolutionize heart treatment.Although previous studies had indicated that there might be a benefit,this is the first study that has actually proved that stem cell therapy can help the failing heart work better.All the patients in this study had hearts that could not pump blood properly.The scientists measured their ejection fraction(射血分数).This is a measure of heart performance;you measure how much blood is being pumped out by the left ventricle(心室).Healthy people's ejection fraction is about 55%.These patients had ejection fraction of under 35%.They all had by-pass surgery(搭桥手术)performed on them.Some of the patients had stem cells taken from their hip bones and injected into 25-30 sites in the damaged heart muscle.Six months latertheir ejection fraction rate was 46.1% while those who just had surgery but no stem cell injections averaged 37.2%.No side effects were reported.Heart failure is a common problem all over the world.In the UK alone about 650,000 people suffer from heart failure every year.As the number of people suffering from heart failure increases in the world in general these findings are particularly significant.Current treatments relieve the symptoms.This new stemcell therapy actually repairs the damaged muscle in the heart and has the potential of curing the disease.1.The 20 patients had stem cell injections instead of surgery.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned2.The experiment proved to be satisfactory.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned3.The control group patients regretted not having had stem cell injections.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned4.The study actually proved for the first time the benefit of stem cell therapy.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned5.The ejection fraction rate of the patients with stem cell injections decreasedA.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned6.Heart failure is more common in the UK than anywhere else in the world.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned7.Stem cell therapy seems to have great prospects.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned参考答案：1.B 2.A 3.C 4.A 5.B 6.C 7.A。

2020年职称英语卫生类阅读判断习题及答案（2）Most Adults in US Have Low Risk of Heart DiseaseMore than 80 percent of US adults have a less than 10–percent risk of developing heart disease in the next 10 years,according to a report in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology. Just 3 percent have a risk that exceeds 20 percent."I hope that these numbers will givephysicians,researchers,health policy analysts,and others a better idea of how coronary heart disease is distributed in the US population," lead author Dr. Earl S. Ford,from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention1 in Atlanta,said in a statement.The findings are based on analysis of data from 13,769 subjects,between 20 and 79 years of age,who participated in the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 1988 to 1994.Overall,82 percent of adults had a risk of less than 10 percent,15 percent had a risk that fell between 10 to 20 percent,and 3 percent had a risk above 20 percent.The proportion of subjects in the highest risk group increased with advancing age,and men were more likely than women to be in this group.2 By contrast3,race or ethnicity had little effect on risk distributions.Although the report suggests that most adults have a low 10–year risk of heart disease,a large proportion have a high or immediate risk4,Dr. Daniel S. Berman,from Cedars-SinaiMedical Center in Los Angeles,and Dr. Nathan D. Wong,from the University of California at Irvine,note in a related editorial.Aggressive treatment measures and public healthstrategies are needed to shift the overall population risk downward,they add.练习：1.The 10–year risk of heart disease is low for most US adults.A.

2020职称英语模拟试题：卫生类阅读理解2020职称英语模拟试题：卫生类阅读理解小编推荐：Immigration and ProblemsHundreds of thousands of people supporting immigration rights in the US filled streets all over America in early 2006. Many held signs and American flags and asked to be treated as citizens - not criminals. Many of these supported legislation from Senator John McCain that would open a pathto citizenship to immigrants who were already in the country illegally. Proposed legislation from other politicians called for stricter measures - including rounding up undocumented immigrants and sending them back to their home countries.Canadian officials say that immigration applications continue to rise. Some want to keep the doors open. They need the labor. About 400,000 immigrants were allowed into the country in 2005, according to the Canadian Government statistics. However, all this growth means that cities needto adapt. Newcomers don't always make a smooth transitioninto jobs for which they are skilled. So industries are using mentoring programs to help new immigrants find proper jobs.With the large numbers of undocumented African immigrants arriving in the Canary Islands and showing no sign of abating, the Spanish Government has decided to get tough. There willbe no more mass amnesties for illegals, and anyone coming to Spain without permission will be sent back, the governmenthas announced. About 23,000 migrants landed on the islands in2006, and riots have erupted in some crowded reception centers. This has promoted local authorities to appeal to the United Nations for help.France's new immigration and integration law gives the government new powers to encourage high-skilled migration. It takes effect in 2007. The new law authorizes the government to identify particular professions where France has a talent shortage. Then the government will help these identified employers find immigrant workers with needed skills or qualifications. The selected foreign employees will be granted "skills and talents" visas, valid for three years. But some concern that it'll cause brain drain in developing countries.1.Many immigrants swarmed into streets in the US in early 2006, demanding that they should be treated asA.animals.B.citizens.C.civilians.D.criminals.准确答案：B2.Some Canadian officials want to keep the door open becauseA.Canada is in desperate need of talented people.B.Canada can feed a much larger population.C.Canada is suffering from labor shortage.D.Canada is a multicultural country.准确答案：C3.What has the Spanish Government decided to do?A.Help immigrants find proper jobs.B.Let immigrants freely enter the country.C.Integrate immigrants into the Spanish culture.D.Take tough measures against illegal immigration.准确答案：D4.After France's new immigration and integration law takes effect, it willA.lure overseas students back home.B.undermine the unity of the country.C.drain developing countries of talent.D.induce resentment among the French workers.准确答案：C5.The phrasal verb rounding up in paragraph 1 could be best replaced byA.capturing.B.encircling.C.separating.D.frightening.准确答案：A。
