29、w down and unwind. But relaxation is essential for a healthy mind and body.Stress is a natural part of everyday life.

31、dual. Some people thrive on stress, and such characters are obviously prime materials for managerial (管理的) responsibilities. Others crumple at the sight of unusual difficulties.When exposed to stress, in whatever form, we react both chemically and physically. In fact we invoke the “fight“ mechanism

32、which in more primitive days made the difference between life or death. The crises we meet today are unlikely to be so extreme, but however minimal the stress, it involves the same response. All the energy is diverted to cope with the stress, with the result that other functions, such as digestion,

33、are neglected.It is when such reaction is prolonged, through continued exposure to stress, that health becomes endangered. Such serious conditions as high blood pressure, coronary heart disease (冠心病) all have established links with stress. The way stress affects a per son also varies with the indivi

34、dual. Stress in some people produces stomach disorders, while others succumb to tension headaches.

40、 he should be able to notice a number of significant truths. The history of our language has always been a history of constant changeat times a slow, almost imperceptible change, at other times a violent collision between two languages. Our language has always been a living growing organism; it has

41、never been static. Another significant truth that emerges from such a study is that language at all times has been the possession not of one class or group but of many. At one extreme it has been the property of the common, ignorant folk, who have used it in the daily business of their living, much

42、as they have used their animals or the kitchen pots and pans. At the other extreme it has been the treasure of those who have respected it as an instrument and a sign of civilization, and who have struggled by writing it down to give it some permanence, order, dignity, and if possible, a little beau

43、ty.As we consider our changing language, we should note here two developments that are of special and immediate importance to us. One is that since the time of the Anglo Saxons there has been an almost complete reversal of the different devices for showing the relationship of words in a sentence. An

44、glo-Saxon (old English) was a language of many inflections. Modern English has few inflections. We must now depend largely on word order and function words to convey the meanings that the older language did by means of changes in the forms of words. Function words, you should understand, are words s

45、uch as prepositions, conjunctions, and a few others that are used primarily to show relationships among other words. A few inflections, however, have survived. And when some word inflections come into conflict with word order, there may be trouble for the users of the language, as we shall see later

46、 when we turn our attention to such maters as WHO or WHOM and ME or I. The second fact we must consider is that as language itself changes, our attitudes toward language forms change also. The eighteenth century, for example, produced from various sources a tendency to fix the language into patterns

47、 not always set in and grew, until at the present time there is a strong tendency to restudy and re-evaluate language practices in terms of the ways in which people speak and write.（分数：15.00）(1).In contrast to the earlier linguists, modern linguists tend to _.（分数：3.00）A.attempt to continue the stand

48、ardization of the languageB.evaluate language practices in terms of current speech rather than standards or proper patternsC.be more concerned about the improvement of the language than its analysis or historyD.be more aware of the rules of the language usage(2).Choose the appropriate meaning for the word “inflection“ used in line 4 of paragraph 2.: _.（分数：3.00）A.changes in the forms of wordsB.changes in sentence structuresC.changes in spelling rulesD.words that have similar meanings(3).Which of the following statements is not mentioned in the passage?（分数：3.00）A.It is generally believed that
