They were also 33 percent more likely to have positive relationship with colleagues, and a 20 percent higher level of job satisfaction.___Previous _ studies have linked work-related stress to _a range of___ mental and physical illnesses, such as depression and obesity. But this study shows how stress can be a vicious circle-adversely affecting the way employees perform at work, which can __lead to__ even more workplace stress.One expert said the mental and physical wellbeing of employees were __at risk__ if they came to work still stressed from the day before. He said: “When you’re still angry or upset from yesterday’s stress, your workday will likely go in only one direction--- down.”And there were obvious benefits at home as well. Employees with strong home support were 25 percent lesslikely to suffer from after-work fatigue.

M: Before we play again, I’m going to buy a good tennis racket.W: Your shoes aren’t in very good shape, either.Q: What does the woman imply?【解析】选[C]。
女士说好像男士的鞋也坏了。
女士的意思是要男士不但要买个好一点的球拍，也该换双鞋了，选项[C]符合题意。
12. M: Have you found a partner to work with on biology? The lab class is tomorrow.W: To tell you the truth, I’ve been tied upwith my chemistry course this week.Q: What can be inferred about the woman?【解析】选[B]。
女士回答说事实上她这周一直忙着化学呢，即她还没有找到合作对象。
[A]和[C]项误解了be tied up with的含义，分别将该短语理解为“喜欢”和“厌恶”；[D]项是说太忙而没有时间学习化学，这与女士所说的“一直忙着学习化学”相矛盾，注意too...to的表达方式。
13. M: Make thirty copies for me and twenty copies for Mr. Brown.W: Certainly, Sir. As soon as I finish typing the letter.Q: What is the probable relationship between the two speakers?【解析】选[C]。
对话中的copies和typing都是在办公室场景中出现频率非常高的词语。
另外，男士的祈使语气和女士对男士的称呼(Sir)有助于判断他们的上下级关系。
14. W: It must be the first time for you to be aboard a warship.M: Don’t you know that I’ve been in military service in the Navy for years?Q: What can we say about the man?【解析】选[D]。
女士推测这是男士第一次登上军舰，男士用否定疑问句的形式对此予以了否定，说以前他就曾在海军服过兵役。
即他之前就登上过军舰，故[D] 15. W: How did your interview go?M: I couldn’t feel worseabout it. The questions were very fair but I seemed to find no answers for all of them.Q: How does the man feel about the interview?【解析】选[B]。
I couldn’t feel worse about it指I feel the worst，这说明男士的面视并不理想，[B]是对他心情的正确描述。
比较级用于否定结构可表示“最…不过”。
如Nothing better(那最好不过了)。
16. M: I can’t find my lunch box anywhere.W: Never mind. I’ll treat you today.Q: What do we learn from this conversation?【解析】选[C]。
对话中的关键词是treat“款待；做东；请客”，男士说找不到自己的饭盒了，女士说没关系，我请你吃饭，选项[C]是女士回话的同义转述。
[A]、[B]与对话无关。
[D]是借treat一词设置的干扰项。
17. M: Wasn’t it terrific?W: Well, the music was enjoyable, but the story didn’t make much sense to me.I still prefer traditional drama with strong characters and an exciting plot.Q: What does the woman think of the play?【解析】选[C]。
对话中男士问女士对戏剧的看法，女士说戏剧的音乐不错，但故事情节没意思，并补充说她喜欢人物塑造力强、情节生动的传统戏剧。
由此推知她认为这部戏剧太现代派了，故[C]为答案。
18. W: Where have you been all this time? The train is about to leave!M: Sorry I’m late, but I was waiting for you at the information desk upstairs. It’s lucky I thought to look for you here on the platform.Q: Where did the man think they were supposed to meet?【解析】选[D]。
