18
itself是反身代词。反身代词可用作句子的宾语或同
位语。例如: ◆ The cat saw itself in the mirror. 猫看到了镜子里的自己。 ◆ The school itself should take the responsibility. 责任应当由学校自己承担。
19
2. This is good in dangerous situations, such as getting out of the way of a speeding car. (Para. 1)
例如: ◆ She is in a hopeless situation. 她处于无助的境况。 such as… 是“诸如……”的意思。例如: ◆ You may buy some fruit for her, such as oranges and bananas. 你可以给她买些水果,例如橘子和香蕉。
20
get out of the way是“让开,避开”的意思。
例如: ◆ Please get out of the way, and let us get on with the job. 请让开,我们要继续工作。 ◆ You can’t give any help, so just get out of the way. 你们帮不上忙,所以让开吧。 speeding是现在分词用作形容词,通常置于所修饰 词之前。例如: ◆ How lovely the singing girl is! 这位唱歌的女孩真可爱! ◆ Look at the running horse. 看那匹奔跑的马。
21
3. But it can bring about physical illness if it goes on for too long, such as in response to life’s daily challenges and changes. (Para. 1) if是连接词,它可以用来引导条件状语从句。 例如: ◆ What would Diana think of him if he failed? 如果他失败,戴安娜会怎么看他? ◆ You can wait here if you like. 如果你愿意,你可以在这儿等。

27
在make you feel anxious… 中,feel anxious是省略了to的不定式短语。动词make, let, have后面通常跟省略to的动词不定式作其宾语补语。例如:
◆ It was John who made me do so. 是约翰让我这样做的。 ◆ Let him go. 让他走。 ◆ Have him stand there. 就让他站在那儿。
28
句中形容词anxious, afraid,和worried充当感观动词feel的表语。常用的感观动词还有look, appear, seem, taste, smell, sound等。语法上,可以称其为半系动词,因此后面通常可以跟形容词作其表语,而不跟副词。例如: ◆ He feels bad. 他觉得很难受。 ◆ The soup smells delicious. 这汤闻起来很香。 ◆ She looked nervous before the exam. 考试前她显得很紧张。

◆ I felt disappointed when hearing that the bus had gone. 听说汽车已经开走了,我很失望。 ◆ I felt satisfied after I had finished the task. 工作完成后我感到很满足。
31

32
8. What may be stressful is different for each person. (Para. 3)
What may be stressful是由疑问词what引导的主语 从句。当所要表达的意思含有疑问的概念时,用相 应的疑问词。注意,此时的疑问并不是一个疑问 句,故不要使用疑问语序而要用陈述语序。例如: ◆ When he will go is unknown to us. 他什么时候走我们不清楚。 ◆ Why he is coming is an open secret. 他为什么要来已是一个公开的秘密。 ◆ What he said cannot be trusted. 他所说的话不可信。

10. Other stressful things include losing your job, your child leaving or returning home, the death of your relative, divorce or marriage, an illness, an injury, money problems, or even having a baby. (Para.4) include在句中用作动词,意为“包括”。Include 后面只能用动名词(短语)、名词(短语)或代 词作宾语。例如: ◆ My job doesn’t include making coffee for the boss! 为老板煮咖啡不是我分内的事! ◆ The price includes postage charges. 价钱包括邮费。
36
句中连接词or连接了名词或动名词短语。 your child leaving or returning home是动名词的复合结构。当动名词前加上一个名词或代词的所有格形式时,这个名词或代词的所有格形式就是动名词的逻辑主语。例如: ◆ The teacher’s praising the boy made all the other boys happy. 老师表扬了这孩子,这使得其他的孩子都 很高兴。 ◆ I am afraid of his being late again. 我怕他又迟到。
37
11. Stress can cause health problems or make problems worse if you don’t learn ways to deal with it. (Para.5) if you don’t learn ways… 是连接词if引导的条件状 语从句,if可引导条件状语从句。例如: ◆ I will do it if I shall be paid. 如果付钱我就做这事。 ◆ I will not drive to work if it snows tomorrow. 如果明天下雪,我就不开车去上班了。

13. It’s important to make sure that your symptoms aren’t caused by other health problems. (Para. 5)
To make sure…是动词不定式(短语),在句中作主语,而it只是形式上的主语。英语中动词不定式(短语)作主语时,通常用it作形式主语,而将真正的主语(动词不定式短语)置于句末。例如: ◆ It’s very good for us to learn English. 对我们来说,学英语很有好处。 ◆ It is right to do so. 这样做是对的。
41
句中make sure是常用的动词短语,意为“确信,证实”。例如:

Stress: How to Cope Better with
Text A Stress: How to Cope Better with Life’s Challenges
59
Translation of Text A 压力:如何更好地应对生活中的挑战 造成压力的原因
压力是一种自我保护的身体反应。这在危险时刻是好事,如躲开一辆加速行驶的车。但如果压力持续时间过长,就会引发生理疾病,如长时间应对日常生活中的挑战和改变。 这种情况就像你静止不动,但身体似乎已经要跳开给车让路。身体超负荷工作,会让你感到担心、害怕、忧虑。
60
产生压力的变化 任何改变都能让你感觉到压力,即使是好的变化。重要的不是变化本身,而是你对其做出的反应。导致压力的事情往往会因人而异。例如,有人也许不会觉得退休是一种压力,而另一个人会认为是压力。 产生压力的变化还包括失业、孩子离家或回家、亲属的逝世、离婚或结婚、疾病、受伤、经济问题,甚至是生小孩。 压力是否影响健康 压力会导致一些健康问题,如果不知道如何调节,问题则会更糟糕。常和家庭医生谈论你的压力,确保这种情况不是由其他健康问题引起的很重要。
61
可能的压力征兆 ·忧虑 ·背痛 ·沮丧 ·头痛 ·高血压 ·交际关系问题 ·呼吸困难 ·胃部毛病 ·体重增加或减少
62
减轻压力的方法 首先要知道什么时候你会感觉到压力。压力早期的征兆包括肩膀紧张或握紧拳头。 接下来,选择一种应对压力的方法。其一是避免引起压力事情的发生——但通常这是不可能的。另外,试着改变对压力做出的反应。 这通常是最佳方法。 应对压力的方法 ·不要担心无法控制的事情,如天气。 ·尽力为你认为有压力的事情做充分的准 备,如参加工作面试。 ·试着将改变视为一种挑战,而不是威胁。 ·从朋友、家人或专业人员那里获取帮助。 ·设定生活和工作中的现实性目标。 ·经常锻炼。 ·保持饮食平衡、睡眠充足。

Topics for Discussion Samples 1. ——
Yes. I think college students do feel very tired because they cannot get a good sleep at night. It seems that they get used to sleeping late. You can hardly see a student who goes to bed before 11 o’clock at night. Most students study very hard. Everyone has an idea of surpassing others. What’s more, they will also play computer games, do some washing, and next morning they have to get up at about 7:00 for classes. Therefore they cannot get enough sleep.
65
—— I think most college students feel very tired because they have too many lessons. If a student wants to get good marks in the final exam, he has to spend much time reviewing his lessons. In order to have more time, many students go to bed at midnight and get up early in the morning. This greatly influences their sleep and health. Some students from poor families have part-time jobs at weekends. They have to work and earn money. Such additional work also makes them feel rather tired.
66
2. —— When I feel sad, I often ask my friends for help. This is because they are familiar with me. They usually have similar troubles. I can exchange ideas with them. In addition, my friends are all very kind and they are very good listeners. If they don’t know how to solve my problems, I can also speak out my trouble. In this way,I recover from my depression.
67
—— Usually I solve the problems myself. If I cannot handle difficulties or problems myself, I will ask my friends or parents for help. I will share my feelings with my friends and ask them to give me some advice. They will encourage me and make me feel relaxed. Sometimes I don’t ask anyone for help. I will stop working and relax for a while. I will sing songs or have a delicious meal to reduce my pressure.

Chinese Young People’s Stress
Text B Chinese Young People’s Stress
113
Translation of Text B 中国年轻人的压力
随着社会的发展,越来越多的人尤其是年轻人饱受压力带来的痛苦。中国亦如此。从《中国青年报》近期的一项调查表明,66% 的年轻人认为自己压力非常大,只有不到1% 的人觉得完全没有压力。而且,随着时间的流逝,这样的问题日益严重。 压力是当你对某事感到忧虑、不舒服时的一种感觉。思想中的这种担忧会使你的身体变得糟糕。经受压力时,你可能会觉得生气、沮丧、恐惧或害怕,这些会引起胃疼或头疼。感觉有压力的时候,你可能不想睡觉或吃东西,你会觉得不舒服,在学校也无法集中精神,在家里容易忘事情。那些拥有好工作、幸福婚姻或非常富有的人也会有压力。
114
如今,年轻人的生活方式对其父母来说只是一种梦想。他们很多人自己有车和房子,但是花钱如流水。这样,一些人就会为此担忧,进而感到压力。
所以,分析家说,那些为年轻人带来机遇的因素也会造成各种压力。 我们的社会处于一种急躁的状态,尤其是年轻人。他们频繁更换工作,表现出内心的不安全感。这种情况源于媒体对那些大富豪的报道,如31岁时就已身价超过十亿的网络游戏发明者陈天桥。 年轻人也会因为落后于其他伙伴而感到害怕,离家很近时这种情况更明显,如一个曾经的同学、现在的邻居变得很富有。
115
另一方面,中国的计划生育政策意味着年轻人拥有了更多的钱。但这些独生子女的双亲及长辈都殷切盼望着他们成龙成凤,这使他们感到巨大的压力。
随着这样的压力不断增加,很多年轻人都会认为他们年纪轻轻就已经失败了。 如果是这样,你就该知道压力的严重后果了。你可能听别人说过,“唉!我压力太大了”或者“我快受不了了。” 这时,你应该选择一种方式来缓解压力,避免造成压力的事情发生,或是改变你对压力所做出的反应。
