在现代生活中女性就算是在某些领域可以追赶上男性,但至少在一个方面是领先的,尽管是她们不太想要的。
纽约的退伍军管理医院精神科首席医生Yehuda博士说道,和男性相比,女性面对压力时,更容易受到影响,导致抑郁和紧张。
对于动物和人类的研究都显示出性激素会在某种程度去影响面对压力的反应,导致在同样的条件下,女性产生更多的致病化学物质。
在几项研究中,当受到压力的雌鼠的卵巢(雌性的生殖器官)被拿掉后,它们的化学反应变得和那些雄性的一样了。
对于女性来说,除了产生更多的导致压力的化学物质外,她们产生压力的“机会”也更多。
“并不是女性要处理的事情太少,而是她们有更多的事情要处理。
”Yehuda 博士说道。
“她们对于压力的承受能力有时候甚至比男性的还大”,她观察到,“她们只是需要处理的事情太多,看起来会更容易精疲力尽。
”
Yehuda博士注意到了另一个男女之间的不同点。
“我认为,女性通常要做的事是慢性的,重复的。
而男人去战场,承受的是格斗的压力。
男性面临的更多的是随意的身体上的暴力。
女性面对的人与人之间的暴力是在家庭环境中的。
不幸的是,她们与父母还有其他的家庭成员之间不是能够一次性解决的问题。
这种长期的关系的磨合是更有破坏性的。
AdelineAlvarez18岁结婚并生了个儿子,但她决定完成大学学业。
“我尽了很大的努力拿到大学学位,因为我在实际生活中有很多的挫折,而这就是我的逃避,去学校,争取上游,做到更好。
”不久后,她离了婚变成一个单亲母亲。
“除了照顾一个十几岁的孩子,还要工作,付房租,养车,还债是最难的事情了。
我的生活就是不停的支付自己的账单。
”
不是每个人经历着和Alvarezdescribes一样的长期的压力,但是大多数女性都在处理着太多的责任,很少得到喘息,从而感到了压力。
Alvarez的经历证明了当压力威胁你的健康和正常生理功能之前解压是非常重要的。
2008Text2
原本一切都很简单。
一组研究员在实验室里共同完成一个试验,把结果提交给某刊物,刊物的编辑把作者姓名及相关信息隐去,把报告交给这些研究者的同行去审阅。
根据评论意见,编辑将决定是否发表。
因此,版权留在刊物出版社手上,辛苦探求知识的研究者反倒要花钱订阅刊物。
现在不再是这样了。
提供资金的机构施加压力,质疑为什么商业刊物可以通过限制刊载的手段从政府投资的研究项目中牟利,互联网使得阅读科研结果成为现实。
经济合作及发展组织近日发布一项调查,描述了这一现象所造成的深远影响。
澳大利亚维多利亚大学的JohnHoughton和经合组织的GrahamVickery联合完成这一报告,内容使目前为止收入丰厚的出版商们感到汗颜。
但是这项报告的意义远远不止于此,它标志着科学尝试的一项关键性因素即将发生改变。
在某种程度上来说,知识的价值和公共投资能否取得较高回报,取决于是否能够得到广泛的流通、人们是否能够比较容易地获取这些研究成果。
这是一项很大的产业。
在美国,核心科研出版市场产值每年在70亿美元到110亿美元左右。
国际科学、技术和医学出版社集团宣称全世界专业出版本类期刊的出版商有2000多家。
他们每年在16000种刊物上发表120万篇以上文章。
这个数字现在有所变化。
根据OECD报告,目前有75%的专业期刊在互联网上有在线阅读。
全新的商务模式正在形成,报告作者总结出其中三种。
第一种是所谓的大订单模式,即机构团体订阅者通过签订网站协议付钱购买阅读一批刊物文章题目的权限。
第二种为开放式出版模式,这种方式的典型特点是要求作者(或其雇主)付费发表文章。
最后一种为开放式档案模式,即一些组织,比如大学或者国际实验室建立和维护的一些机构数据库。
其他的模式都是对这三种的不同组合,比如延期开放式是指某一些期刊在发表文章的前六个月只允许付费阅览,此后转为免费阅读。
至少对论文的发表来说,这些都将颠覆传统的同行审阅模式。

在20世纪60年代早期,WiltChamberlain是美国国家篮球协会中仅有的身高超过7英尺的三个人之一。
可是如果他参加了上个赛季的话,他就变成了42分之一了。
这些年来在较大的职业体育运动中的运动员的身体状况发生了很大的改变,而他们的经理人也更愿意调整队员的运动服来适应队员们更大,更高的身材。
虽然体育界的这种趋势可能蒙蔽了一个没有被承认的现实:美国人基本上停止生长了。
虽然现在人们比140年前高了2英寸,特别是那些出生在已移民美国很多代的那些人,但是明显的,在二十世纪60年代早期,已经到达了他们的身高的极限。
他们已经不可能再长得更高了。
“在这个基因和环境的条件下,现在整体的人们已经长到我们能够达到的范围了,”Wright州大学的人类学家WilliamCameronChumlea说道。
拿NBA球员来说,他们身高的增加主要由于从世界各地招募到了球员。
身高的增长一般在20岁以后就停止了,而发育是需要能量和营养的,其中的蛋白质用来供给组织的生长。
在20世纪初,营养不良和儿童疾病妨碍了整体的发育。
但是当饮食和健康的促进,儿童和青少年平均每20年都增长了大概英寸,这就是长高的趋势。
根据疾病防治中心,从1960年开始,人们的平均身高,男性5英尺9英寸,女性5英尺4英寸,就没有怎么改变了。
总的说来,避免太高的身高是有很多优点的。
在生产时,较大的婴儿通过产道是有更多的问题的。
而且,就算人类已经直立行走已经几百万年了,我们的脚和背部继续对抗着巨大的压力,这些压力来源于双足直立的姿势和巨大的肢体。
“有一些限制是个体器官的基因结构导致的。
”西北大学的人类学家WilliamLeonard说道。
基因的最大化可以改变,但是不要期待它会马上就能发生。
Mass州的Natick的军队研究中心的高级人类学家确信百分之九十的入伍新兵不需要更换新的制服和工

她说,不像那些篮球制服,军队的制服长度很长时间都没有改变了。
如果你需要在不远的将来预测人类的身高而去设计一款新的设备,Gordon说基本上,“你都能够使用现在的数据并且觉得非常地自信。

2008Text4
1784,52岁的乔治?华盛顿在成为美国总统5年前,牙齿就几乎已经掉光了。
他专门请牙医从他的奴隶口中拔出九颗牙齿种在自己的身上。
这跟很多人在历史书上读到过的那个砍樱桃树的华盛顿有点大相径庭。
但是最近开始,历史学家开始越来越关注奴隶制在美国开国一代人的生活中所扮演的角色。
他们多半是受了1998年DNA事件的影响。
那个事件证明托马斯?杰弗逊至少和他的奴隶萨利?赫明思生过一个孩子。
学者们从头至尾地研究历史还是近三十年的事情。
一些
历史学家揭示了早期开国者们的道德妥协和早期国家的不稳定性。
更重要的是,他们认为很多开国元勋知道奴隶制是错误的,但是大多数并没有去反抗。
最主要的原因,就是建国者们受到了当时文化的束缚。
当华盛顿和杰弗逊私底下表示对奴隶制的不满时,他们也明白奴隶制同时也是他们努力建造的这个国家的政治经济基础的一部分。
一方面,南方各州无法认同废除奴隶制度。
如《不完美的上帝:乔治?华盛顿、他的奴隶和美国的建立》一书作者Wiencek所描述,拥有努力“就像拥有一笔巨额存款”。
如果没有对于这种“特殊制度”的保护,南方各州不会同意签署宪法。
这种特殊的制度保护包括:在国会代表人数中一个奴隶可以算作五分之三个公民。
政治家的政治生命也取决于奴隶制度。
正由于这个五分之三公式,南方选举团的选票扩大了,杰弗逊才在1800大选中险胜。
入主白宫之后的1803年,杰弗逊通过购买路易斯安那州扩大了奴隶制度,这片土地后来被划分为了13个州,其中包括3个蓄奴州。
然而,杰弗逊还是解放了赫明思的孩子们,虽然没有同样解放赫明思和其他150名奴隶。
华盛顿在目睹了美国独立战争中黑人士兵的英勇之后开始相信人人生就平等。
于是,不顾亲属的反对,他解放了自己所有的努力。
而仅仅在十年前,解放奴隶的法案才在弗吉尼亚得以批准。

23. Female capuchin monkeys were chosen for the research most probably because they are
The researches suggest that capuchin monkeys, like humans, are guided by social emotions.In the wild, they are a co-operative, group-living species, Such co-operation is likely to be stable only when each animal feels it is not being cheated. Feelings of righteousindignation, it seems, are not the preserve of people alone, Refusing a lesser reward completely makes these feelings abundantly clear to other members of the group.However, whether such a sense of fairness evolved independently in capuchins andhumans, or whether it stems from the common ancestor that the species had 35 million years ago, is, as yet, an unanswered question.

2014年考研英语阅读真题Text 1In order to “change lives for the better” and reduce “dependency,” George Osbome,Chancellor of the Exchequer, introduced the “upfront work search” scheme. Only if the jobless arrive at the job centre with a register for online job search, and start looking for work will they be eligible for benefit-and then they should report weekly rather than fortnightly. What could be more reasonable?为了“让生活变得更美好”以及减少“依赖”,英国财政大臣乔治•奥斯本引入了“求职预付金”计划。

Really? On first hearing, this was the socially concerned chancellor, trying to change lives for the better, complete with “reforms” to an obviously indulgent system that demands too little effort from the newly unemployed to find work, and subsides laziness. What motivated him, we were to understand, was his zeal for “fundamental fairness”-protecting the taxpayer, controlling spending and ensuring that only the most deserving claimants received their benefits.更加明显的合理性如下。

By splitting up the subject matter into smaller units, one man could continue to handle the information and use it as the basis for further research. But specialisation was only one of a series of related developments in science affecting the process of communication. Another was the growing professionalisation of scientific activity.No clear-cut distinction can be drawn between professionals and amateurs in science: exceptions can be found to any rule. Nevertheless, the word 'amateur' does carry a connotation that the person concerned is not fully integrated into the scientific community and, in particular, may not fully share its values. The growth of specialisation in the nineteenth century, with its consequent requirement of a longer, more complex training, implied greater problems for amateur participation in science. The trend was naturally most obvious in those areas of science based especially on a mathematical or laboratory training, and can be illustrated in terms of the development of geology in the United Kingdom.A comparison of British geological publications over the last century and a half reveals not simply an increasing emphasis on the primacy of research, but also a changing definition of what constitutes an acceptable research paper. Thus, in the nineteenthcentury, local geological studies represented worthwhile research in their own right; but, in the twentieth century, local studies have increasingly become acceptable to professionals only if they incorporate, and reflect on, the wider geological picture. Amateurs, on the other hand, have continued to pursue local studies in the old way. The overall result has been to make entrance to professional geological journals harder for amateurs, a result that has been reinforced by the widespread introduction of refereeing, first by national journals in the nineteenth century and then by several local geological journals in the twentieth century. As a logical consequence of this development, separate journals have now appeared aimed mainly towards either professional or amateur readership. A rather similar process of differentiation has led to professional geologists coming together nationally within one or two specific societies, whereas the amateurs have tended either to remain in local societies or to come together nationally in a different way.Although the process of professionalisation and specialisation was already well under way in British geology during the nineteenth century, its full consequences were thus delayed until the twentieth century. In science generally, however, the nineteenth century must be reckoned as the crucial period for this change in the structure of science.1. The growth of specialisation in the 19th century might be more clearly seen in sciences such as ________.[A] sociology and chemistry [B] physics and psychology[C] sociology and psychology [D] physics and chemistry2. We can infer from the passage that ________.[A] there is little distinction between specialisation andprofessionalisation[B] amateurs can compete with professionals in some areas of science[C] professionals tend to welcome amateurs into the scientific community[D] amateurs have national academic societies but no local ones3. The author writes of the development of geology to demonstrate ________.[A] the process of specialisation and professionalisation[B] the hardship of amateurs in scientific study[C] the change of policies in scientific publications[D] the discrimination of professionals against amateurs4. The direct reason for specialisation is ________.[A] the development in communication [B] the growth of professionalisation[C] the expansion of scientific knowledge [D] the splitting up of academic societies>>>>>>答案解析<<<<<<重点词汇:1.specialisation(专业化)即special+is(e)+ation,special(特别的;额外的),-ise动词后缀(specialise即v.专业化),-ation名词后缀;specialist(专家;专科医生)←special+ist后缀表“人”。

Text 1①Of all the changes that have taken place in English-language newspapers during the past quarter-century, perhaps the most far-reaching has been the inexorable decline in the scope and seriousness of their arts coverage.①It is difficult to the point of impossibility for the average reader under the age of forty to imagine a time when high-quality arts criticism could be found in most big-city newspapers. ②Yet a considerable number of the most significant collections of criticism published in the 20th century consisted in large part of newspaper reviews. ③To read such books today is to marvel at the fact that their learned contents were once deemed suitable for publication in general-circulation dailies.① We are even farther removed from the unfocused newspaper reviews published in England between the turn of the 20th century and the eve of World War 2,at a time when newsprint was dirt-cheap and stylish arts criticism was considered an ornament to the publications in which it appeared. ②In those far-off days, it was taken for granted that the critics of major papers would write in detail and at length about the events they covered. ③Theirs was a serious business. and even those reviews who wore their learning lightly, like George Bernard Shaw and Ernest Newman, could be trusted to know what they were about. ④These men believed in journalism as a calling, and were proud to be published in the daily press. ⑤So few authors have brains enough or literary gift enough to keep their own end up in ournalism,Newman wrote, "that I am tempted to define "journalism" as "a term of contempt applied by writers who are not read to writers who are".①Unfortunately, these critics are virtually forgotten. ②Neville Cardus, who wrote for the Manchester Guardian from 1917 until shortly before his death in 1975, is now known solely as a writer of essays on the game of cricket. ③During his lifetime, though, he was also one of England's foremost classical-music critics, and a stylist so widely admired that his Autobiography (1947) became a best-seller. ④He was knighted in 1967, the first music critic to be so honored.⑤Yet only one of his books is now in print, and his vast body of writings on music is unknown save to specialists.①Is there any chance that Cardus's criticism will enjoy a revival? ②The prospect seems remote.③Journalistic tastes had changed long before his death, and postmodern readers have little use for the richly uphostered Vicwardian prose in which he specialized. ④Moreover,the amateur tradition in music criticism has been in headlong retreat.全文翻译:在过去的25 年英语报纸所发生的变化中,影响最深远的可能就是它们对艺术方面的报道在范围上毫无疑问的缩小了,而且这些报道的严肃程度也绝对降低了。

This long story still unfolds.In many respects, the dearth of moral purpose frames not only the fact of such widespread phone hacking but the terms on which the trial took place.One of the astonishing revelations was how little Rebekah Brooks knew of what went on in her newsroom,how little she thought to ask and the fact that she never inquired how the stories arrived.The core of her successful defence was that she knew nothing.In today's world, it has become normal that well-paid executives should not be accountable for what happens in the organisations that they run.Perhaps we should not be so surprised.For a generation, the collective doctrine has been that the sorting mechanism of society should be profit.The words that have mattered are efficiency, flexibility, shareholder value,business-friendly, wealth generation, sales, impact and, in newspapers, circulation.Words degraded to the margin have been justice, fairness, tolerance, proportionality and accountability.The purpose of editing the News of the World under Rupert Murdoch was not to promote reader understanding, to be fair in what was written or to betray any common humanity.It was to ruin lives in the quest for circulation and impact.Ms Brooks may or may not have had suspicions abouthow her journalists got their stories,but she asked no questions, gave no instructions;nor received traceable, recorded answers.考研英语阅读翻译两年前,鲁伯特;默多克之女伊丽莎白曾说“太多的新闻机构有令人不安的正直缺失。

(10 points)Since the days of Aristotle, a search for universal principles has characterized the scientific enterprise. In some ways, this quest f or commonalities defines science. Newton’s laws of motion and Darwinian evolution each bind a host of different phenomena into a single explicatory frame work.(46)In physics, one approach takes this impulse for unification to its extreme, and seeks a theory of everything—a single generative equation for all we see.It is becoming less clear, however, that such a theory would be a simplification, given the dimensions and universes that it might entail, nonetheless, unification of sorts remains a major goal.This tendency in the natural sciences has long been evident in the social sciences too. (47)Here, Darwinism seems to offer justification for it all humans share common origins it seems reasonable to suppose that cultural diversity could also be traced to more constrained beginnings. Just as the bewildering variety of human courtship rituals might all be considered forms of sexual selection, perhaps the world’s languages, music, social and religious customs and even history are governed by universalfeatures. (48)T o filter out what is unique from what is shared might enable us to understand how complex cultural behavior arose and what guides it in evolutionary or cognitive terms.That, at least, is the hope. But a comparative study of linguistic traits published online today supplies a reality check. Russell Gray at the University of Auckland and his colleagues consider the evolution of grammars in the light of two previous attempts to find universality in language.The most famous of these efforts was initiated by Noam Chomsky, who suggested that humans are born with an innate language—acquisition capacity that dictates a universal grammar.A few generative rules are then sufficient to unfold the entire fundamental structure of a language, which is why children can learn it so quickly.(49)The second, by Joshua Greenberg, takes a more empirical approach to universality identifying traits (particularly in word order) shared by many language which are considered to represent biases that result from cognitive constraints Gray and his colleagues have put them to the test by examining four family trees that between them represent more than 2,000 languages.(50)Chomsky’s grammar should show patterns of language change that are independent of the family tree or the pathway tracked through it. Whereas Greenbergian universality predicts strong co-dependencies between particular types of word-order relations. Neither of these patterns is borne out by the analysis, suggesting that the structures of the languages are lire age-specific and not governed by universals 第二篇:Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese. Your translation should bewritten carefully on ANSWER SHEET 2. (10 points)One basic weakness in a conservation system based wholly on economic motives is that most members of the land community have no economic value. Yet these creatures are members of the biotic community and, if its stability depends on its integrity, they are entitled to continuance.When one of these noneconomic categories is threatened and, if we happen to love it .We invert excuses to give it economic importance. At the beginning of century songbirds were supposed to be disappearing. (46) Scientists jumped to the rescue with some distinctly shaky evidence to the effect that insects would eat us up if birds failed to control them. the evidence had to be economic in order to be valid.It is painful to read these round about accounts today. We have no land ethic yet, (47) but we have at least drawn near the point of admitting that birds should continue as a matter of intrinsic right, regardless of the presence or absence of economic advantage to us.A parallel situation exists in respect of predatory mammals and fish-eating birds. (48) Time was when biologists somewhat over worded the evidence that these creatures preserve the health of game by killing the physically weak, or that they prey only on "worthless" species.Some species of tree have been read out of the party by economics-minded foresters because they grow too slowly, or have too low a sale vale to pay as timber crops. (49) In Europe, where forestry is ecologically more advanced, the non-commercial tree species are recognized as members of native forest community, to be preserved as such, within reason.To sum up: a system of conservation based solely oneconomic self-interest is hopelessly lopsided. (50) It tends to ignore, and thus eventually to eliminate, many elements in the land community that lack commercial value, but that are essential to its healthy functioning. It assumes, falsely, I think, that the economic parts of the biotic clock will function without the uneconomic parts.>>>>>>答案解析<<<<<<第一篇:46. 物理学中的一个理论把这种归一的冲动发挥到了极致,它探寻一种万有理论——一个关于我们能看到的一切的生成方程式。
