A Shanghai shopping center recently opened a “husband nursery”. Men who are pulled around the shops by their wives or girlfriends can relax and rest there from shopping. Do most men hate shopping with women? Forum(論壇)readers share their opinions.

YinsXZ (US)

Hey, that is a nice idea. I like it. It also makes it easier for women who have lots of bags to be able to drop them off at the nursery for boyfriends to watch over while they return to shop for more! Set it up with wifi too and you have a perfect hang out spot. And most importantly, I don’t have to wait for complaints from the woman when I stop to look at computers to tools!

Sunnylin01(China)

Most women like shopping while most men don’t. Men generally don’t spend hours deciding color, comparison shopping or finding the sale prices. They know what they want, get in, buy them and get out. 10-15 minutes and they’re done. This is quite different from how a woman shops. Going from store to store, trying to find the best ones. The trying will spend hours.

Seneca(a foreigner in China)

Many women view shopping as an entertaining way to get down from high stress levels. My wife is one of those. Stress comes too naturally to her; driving a car, doing her job ,dealing with workmates all lead to some rising of her stress level. So shopping ideally happens every day. For me, that amount of shopping is stressful.

Blonde Amber(Ireland)

Some men take hours comparing products, trying things out, finding sales prices. They don’t always know what they want but enjoy just looking. Men can shop the same as women for things they are interested in and spend hours doing it. Equally not all women like shopping and go in, 10-15 minutes and they are done. People are not black and white, and don’t fit into boxes.

1.According to forum readers, which is not the benefit of opening a “husband nursery”?

A. Men can escape the complaints from women

B. Women can enjoy shopping more with bags left in men’s care

C. Women can finish their shopping in a shorter time

D. Men can relax themselves when women are shopping

2.Which saying below can best describe Sunnylin01 and Seneca’s opinion?

A. One man’s meat is another man’s poison

B. Joy and sorrow are next-door neighbors

C. A good wife make a good husband

D. Experience is the mother of wisdom

3.The underlined sentence in the last paragraph implies that_____.

A. black people and white people are different in size

B. people with different skins have different opinions

C. people shouldn’t draw general conclusion blindly

D. shopping is not suitable for any kind of people

Tests can be stressful even for the best students．1. Fortunately，there are several steps you can take to make your stress much more manageable．

Get Enough Sleep

Getting 6 hours of sleep or less can put you into what’s called a sleep deficit(不足)，which makes you less sharp mentally and prevents you from performing properly on tests．2. This way，you needn’t stay up for the test and can get a good night of sleep before your big day．

Study Smarter

3.Make a list of the most important things you need to learn and hit the items at the top of the list first．This will ensure they’re mostly covered if you run out of time．Make a list of all the work you have to do，estimate how long each item will take，and compare that with the amount of hours you have available．This will tell you if you can carefully read or just skim，how many times you can afford to revise the papers.

Visualize(想象)Success

A proven way to build your confidence is to visualize yourself taking the tests and doing wonderfully．Visualization can not only help you perform better in the tests but can help you remember facts．You can create detailed situations that involve the information you’re trying to remember．4.

Stay Calm

Dear Mr Smith,

I am writing to tell you anything about the 10th English Speaking Contest I took part in it last week in our school.

I got the “Top Ten Prize” out of the 30 competitors ,who was completely beyond my imagination. A moment I heard the final result, I couldn’t believe my ears and jumped with joy, feeling amazing. Since the contest, whenever you had free time, you would help me practice my spoken English. You communicated with me, and corrected my pronounce. What’s more, you taught me a lot of speaking skills and made me full of confidence. If you haven’t helped me, I couldn’t have achieved such a good result. I have benefited this contest a lot.

All in all, thank you for which you have done for me.

Yours,

Wang Yuan

科目：高中英語 來源：河北省2017屆高三下學(xué)期三調(diào)考試英語試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

Anxiety has now surpassed depression as the most common mental health disease among college students, though depression, too, is on the rise. More than half of students visiting campus clinics cite anxiety as a health concern, according to a recent study of more than 100,000 students nationwide by the Center for Collegiate Mental Health at Penn State. Nearly one in six college students has been diagnosed with or treated for anxiety within the last 12 months, according to the annual national survey by the American College Health Association.

The causes range widely, experts say, from mounting academic pressure at earlier ages to overprotective parents to engagement with social media. Anxiety has always played a role in the development of a student’s life, but now more students experience anxiety so acute that they are seeking professional help. Like many college clinics, the Center for Counseling and Psychological Services at the University of Central Florida (UCF)— one of the country’s largest and fastest-growing universities, has seen sharp increases in the number of clients: 15.2 percent over last year alone.

Anxiety has become characteristic of the current generation of college students, said Dan Jones, the director of Counseling and Psychological Services at Appalachian State University in Boone, N. C. Because of increasingly pressures during high school, he and other experts say, students arrive at college preloaded with stress. Accustomed to extreme parental oversight, many seem unable to govern themselves. And with parents so accessible, students have had less incentive to develop life skills. “They can’t tolerate discomfort or having to struggle,” Dr Jones said.

More often, anxiety is mild and temporary, the indication of a student under the control of a normal developmental issue-learning time management, for example, or how to handle rejection from a sorority. Mild anxiety is often treatable with early, modest interventions. But to care for rising numbers of severely troubled students, many counseling centers have moved to triage protocols (分診措施). That means that students with less urgent needs may wait several weeks for first appointments.

Like many college counseling centers, UCF has designed a variety of daily workshops and therapy groups that implicitly and explicitly address anxiety, depression and their triggers. Next fall the center will test a new app for treating anxiety with a seven-module cognitive behavioral program, accessible through a student’s phone and augmented with brief videoconferences with a therapist. It also offers semester-long, 90-minute weekly therapy groups, such as “Keeping Calm and in Control”, “Mindfulness for Depression” and “Building Social Confidence” -for students struggling with social anxiety.

1.Which of the following contributes to anxiety according to the text?

A. Protection from teachers. B. An app in students’ phones.

C. Increasingly learning pressure. D. Management of time learning.

2.What does the underlined word “incentive” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?

A. Prevention. B. Motivation. C. Acquisition. D. Direction.

3.What’s the purpose of those therapy groups mentioned in the last paragraph?

A. To help students suffering anxiety.

B. To test what social anxiety is.

C. To introduce the cognitive behavioral program of UCF.

D. To emphasize the importance of calm and confidence.

4.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?

A. Tips on dealing with anxiety

B. Causes of anxiety and depression

C. Different mental diseases threaten college students

D. College mental health centers overburdened with anxious students
