Social Workers
Social workers help people overcome problems and make their lives better. If people are homeless, sick, or having family problems, social workers will work with them. If students have trouble in school, social workers help them too.
Social workers help these people in different ways. One way is to find resources for people. They find out what kinds of help people need. Then, they set up programs to meet the needs of the individual. They may focus on child abuse, poverty, violence, and other problems. For someone with family difficulties, social workers may find a parenting class or a support group. For a homeless person, they may find a place for them to live and a career training program. For a student, they may find a mentor or a learning disability expert.
Many social workers give counseling. They talk to people about their lives and help them understand and solve their problems and to make plans.
Most social workers spend the day in an office. Some travel to the people they help. Sometimes, they meet with people in the evening or on weekends. Social workers can be very busy when they are helping many people at once.

第3题：
Have you ever argued with your loved ones over simple misunderstandings（误解）?Little wonder.
We often believe we′re more skillful in getting our point across than we actually are,according to Boza?Keysar,a professor at the University of Chicago.In his recent study,speakers tried to express their?meanings using unclear sentences.Speakers who thought listeners understood were wrong nearly half the?time.Here′s some good advice to reduce misunderstanding:
（1）Don′t trust what you see from the listener.Listeners often nod,look at you or say"uhhuh"to?be polite or move the conversation along.But it′s easy to consider these as signs of understanding.
（2）Train the editor（编辑）in your head.If you say,"Beth discusses her problems with her?husband,"it′s not clear whether she′s talking to her husband or about him.Try instead,"Beth?talks to her husband about her problems."or"Beth talks to others about the problems with her?husband."
（3）Ask listeners to repeat your message.Introduce your request by saying"I?want to be sure I said?that right."Questions like"How does that sound?"or"Does that make sense?"may also work.
（4）Listen well.When on the receiving end,ask questions to be sure you′re on the same?page.After all,it isn′t just the speaker′s job to make his speech understood.
Why does the writer give us the advice?A.We're not skillful enough to make clear sentences.
B.Misunderstanding is damaging our normal lives.
C.Misunderstanding occurs now and then.
D.It's impolite to say NO to others.答案：C解析：【考情点拨】推理判断题。【应试指导】由第一段可知，仅仅因为误解而引起争执的情况时有发生，因而作者才给出了建议。 -

第14题：
Questions 7 1~75 refer to the following information.
Family caregivers of seniors should be cognizant of stress as it relates to their loved ones. Knowing the signs and detecting them early can help seniors learn to recognize stress factors and to take steps to alleviate the effects stress can cause. Activities such as yoga, walking and other physical exercises designed for seniors are great tension relievers. Many seniors enjoy the benefits of tai chi classes geared to their physical abilities. The Mayo Clinic supports this gentle form of martial arts as a way to relieve stress and help other health-related conditions.
Some seniors are unable to participate in physical activities, but there are other ways to reduce stress. Eating a healthy, well-balanced diet and getting a good night's sleep can keep stress at bay. Joining a non-physical group activities, such as a bridge club or volunteering, offers socialization and a chance to clear the mind of daily responsibilities. There are also local agencies that can help with tasks that might cause undue stress for seniors. Respite care organizations can help with housework or grocery shopping. Religious organizations often have groups who can assist seniors with yard work or other strenuous tasks around the home.
The fact that stress is a part of life does not mean that overwhelming stress is a burden seniors have to shoulder all alone. With help, seniors can combat stress and its negative effects. Spend time helping seniors determine what burdens they face. Help them plan ways suited to their lifestyles that are not only fun but that can minimize the pressures stress can cause. By doing so, the quality of life seniors experience can increase, further paving the way for them to lead independent lives within the comfort of their own homes.
What does the author say about stress?A. Stress can be avoided.
B. Stress only has negative effects.
C. Stress is the result of daily burden.
D. Stress is a component of life.答案：D解析：态度题。作者对压力的看法在文中最后一段第一句有提到，“The fact that stress is a part of life does not mean that overwhelming stress is a burden seniors have to shoulder all alone.”可知作者认为压力是生活的一部分，但也表明压力并不是只有消极作用，B 项错误，A、C 项过于绝对，所以D 选项为正确答案。 -

第16题：
Sometimes I scratch my head when I read about the government′s efforts to improve schools:new standards and tests to be applied,strict teacher evaluations,and threats of school closures and?job losses．They frighten the school employees,not to mention the students．Instead of making people?unable to solve problems or try new ideas—which is what fear does to us—research on school reform?strongly suggests that policy-makers should encourage school leaders to take a more humane?approach．In their study on the reform efforts of twelve Chicago public schools,Bryk and Schneider
found that enabling positive social relationships between the adults was the key to successful school?improvement and that trust was at the heart of those relationships．
Trust in schools comes down to one thing:psychological safety or safety to speak one′s mind,to?discuss with openness and honesty what is and isn′t working,to make collective decisions．
Yet this kind of safety doesn′t come easily to schools．According to Bryk and Schneider,the?adults in school rely on each other to do their jobs correctly and with integrity(正直)．The challenge?is that our expectations are very diverse based on our unique backgrounds．
At one school where I taught,each teacher had different expectations about how much extra?effort teachers should put into their work—a big difference between the teachers who left after the?last bell and those who worked into the evening．And when expectations are unconscious or?unspoken,it becomes impossible for others to live up to them．
We also make assumptions about the intentions behind a person′s behavior．As we all know,assumptions are often wrong．For example,parents and teachers may think the principal made a?particular decision based on his career advancement rather than what′s best for the students．If we?don′t feel psychologically safe to question our assumptions and expectations,trust flies out the?window and our relationships suffer．
What does the author say about the assumptions made about the intentions behind a person′s behavior?《》（）A.They should be trusted．
B.They are often bold．
C.They are often incorrect．
D.They should be encouraged．答案：C解析：【考情点拨】事实细节题。
