    13 Million Americans Suffer from Social Anxiety Disorder
    Social anxiety disorder prevents some 15 million Americans from leading normal social and romantic lives,a new survey finds.
    The disorder leaves many isolated,ashamed and often misdiagnosed. Thirty-six percent of those with social anxiety disorder have symptoms for 10 years or more before seeking help,the Anxiety Disorders Association of America reports.
    “Social anxiety disorder is when somebody has an intense,persistent and irrational fear of social or performance situations,”Jerilyn Ross,the association's president and CEO,said during a teleconference Wednesday.
    “The condition causes people to avoid common,everyday situations and even other people for fear of being judged or criticized or humiliated or embarrassing themselves,”Ross said.
    Social anxiety disorder can interfere with daily routines and job performance,Ross noted.“It also makes it very difficult for people to develop friends and romantic partnerships,” she said.
    People with this disorder recognize their fear is excessive and irrational,Ross noted. “But they feel powerless to do anything about it,”she said.
    Social anxiety disorder can start in the early teens,Dr. Mark H.Pollack,director of the Center for Anxiety and Traumatic Stress Disorders and a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School,said during the teleconference.
    “This is a disorder that starts affecting people early on,”Pollack said.“The typical age of onset is early adolescence,age 12 or 13,and many individuals report a history of anxiety dating back to earlier childhood.”
    The disorder also has physical symptoms,including heart palpitations,feelings that their throat will close up,sweating,blushing,faintness,trembling and stammering,Ross said.
    Among people with the disorder,75 percent said the condition affected their ability to do normal activities. In addition,69 percent said they didn't want people to think they were crazy,and 58 percent said they were embarrassed by their condition,Ross said.
    However,when the condition is diagnosed and treated,many reported improvement in their lives.In fact,59 percent who were receiving treatment said treatment had a positive effect on their ability to have a romantic relationship.In addition,39 percent who had received treatment said knowing that treatment can be successful aided their decision to get help,Ross noted.

    People with social anxiety disorder are known for their fear of______.
    A: being left alone
    B: leading normal lives
    C: embarrassing other people
    D: facing social or performance situations

    答案:D
    解析:
    题干意为“患有社交焦虑症的人因害怕……而出名”。利用题干中的细节信息词fear作为定位线索,同时利用备选项中的细节信息词/短语作为定位线索normal lives, social or performance situations,在短文的第三段中找到相关句:Social anxiety disorder is when somebody has an intense,persistent and irrational fear of social or performance situa-tions,”Jerilyn Ross,the association's president and CEO,said during a teleconference Wednesday.相关句提到“美国焦虑症协会主席及总裁Jerilyn Ross星期三在电话会议上说,社交焦虑症是指一个人对社交场合或社交活动有着强烈的,持久的和非理性的恐惧”。由此可知答案为D项“害怕社交场合或社交活动”。
    题干意为“患有社交焦虑症的人怎么看待他们感受到的恐惧?”利用题干及备选项中的细节信息词fear, control作为定位线索,备选项中出现了大量的修饰词beneficial“有益的”,controllable“可控制的”,justified“正当的”,在查找相关句的过程中也关注这些修饰词在短文中的出现情况,在短文的第六段中找到相关句:People with this disorder recognize their fear is ex-cessive and irrational, Ross noted.“But they feel powerless to do anything about it,” she said.相关句提到“患有社交焦虑症的人意识到他们的恐惧是过分的,没有道理的。但是他们却对此无能为力”。由此可知答案为A项“他们认为他们的恐惧超出了他们的控制”。
    题干意为“关于患有社交焦虑症的人的陈述,下面哪个选项陈述的内容与短文内容不一致?”题干中没有细节信息词可以利用来作为定位线索,因此只能对备选项进行逐一判断:(第四段)“The condition causes people to avoid common. everyday situations and even other people for fear of being judged or criticized or humiliated or embarrassing them-selves,” Ross said.第四段提到“Ross说,这种状况使那些患有社交焦虑症的人逃避日常的交往甚至逃避与人接触,因为他们害怕被评论,被批评或是被羞辱,这会让他们非常尴尬”。显然D项“患有社交焦虑恐惧症的人往往会评论他人或批评他人”的意义与之意义不一致。所以答案D。该题主要考查考生对英语主被动语态的识别和理解。
    题干意为“从最后一段中可以了解到对社交焦虑的治疗是什么情况?”短文的最后一段表明,不少患者在经过治疗后都有好转。因此答案为D项“会导致病人生活得到改善”。

    When Fear Takes Control of the Mind

    A panic attack is a sudden feeling of terror. Usually it does not last long,but it may feel like forever. The
    cause can be something as normally uneventful as driving over a bridge or flying in an airplane.And it can
    happen even if the person has driven over many bridges or flown many times before.A fast heart beat. Sweaty
    hands.Difficulty in breathing. A light一headed feeling. At first a person may have no idea what is wrong. But
    these can all be signs of what is known as panic disorder. The first appearance usually is between the ages of 18
    and 25.In some cases it develop3 after a tragedy,like the death of a loved one,or some other difficult situation.
    In the United States,the National Institute of Mental Health says more than two million people are af-
    fected in any one-year period.The American Psychological Association says panic disorder is twice more like-
    ly in women than men.And it can last anywhere from a few months to a lifetime.
    Panic attacks can be dangerous一for example,if a person is driving at the time.The Chesapeake Bay
    Bridge in the state of Maryland is so long and so high over the water,and it is famous for scaring motorists.
    There is even a driver assistance program to help people get across.Some people who suffer a panic attack
    develop a phobia,a deep fear of ever repeating the activity that brought on the attack.
    But experts say panic disorder can be treated. Doctors might suggest anti-anxiety or anti-depressant
    medicines.Talking to a counselor could help a person learn to deal with or avoid a panic attack.There are
    breathing methods,for example,that might help a person calm down.Panic disorder is included among what
    mental health professionals call anxiety disorders.A study published last week reported a link between
    anxiety disorders and several physical diseases.It says these include thyroid disease,lung and stomach prob-
    lems,arthritis,migraine headaches and allergic conditions.Researchers at the University of Manitoba in
    Canada say that in most cases the physical condition followed the anxiety disorder. However,they say,exactly
    how the two are connected remains unknown.
    The report in the Archives of Internal Medicine came from a German health study of more than 4 ,000 adalts.

    Which of the following spots is most likely to cause drivers to suffer panic disorder according to the author?
    A:The Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco.
    B:The Chesapeake Bay Bridge in Maryland.
    C:The Empire State Building in New York.
    D:The Niagara Falls in North America.

    答案:B
    解析:
    第一段第三、四行列出了包括A、B、C三个选项在内的各种症状(还包括fast heart-beat),但没有D项(低血压)。
    第二段第一句说到“more than two million" , C项的above与more than同义。
    第二段第二句说“女人患惊恐性障碍的可能性是男人的两倍”。twice as much as与 twice more than均表示前者是后者的两倍。
    第三段第二句提到马里兰州的切萨皮克海湾大桥吓坏开车的人是出了名的,其他地方 没有提到。应该注意的是,本题所问的是most likely(很可能),并不是the most likely(最可 能),因此并不涉及对四个选项所列场所进行比较的问题。
    第四段倒数第三句罗列了包括B、C、D三项在内的各个病种,但没有A项的“癌症”。

    13 Million Americans Suffer from Social Anxiety Disorder
    Social anxiety disorder prevents some 15 million Americans from leading normal social and romantic lives,a new survey finds.
    The disorder leaves many isolated,ashamed and often misdiagnosed. Thirty-six percent of those with social anxiety disorder have symptoms for 10 years or more before seeking help,the Anxiety Disorders Association of America reports.
    “Social anxiety disorder is when somebody has an intense,persistent and irrational fear of social or performance situations,”Jerilyn Ross,the association's president and CEO,said during a teleconference Wednesday.
    “The condition causes people to avoid common,everyday situations and even other people for fear of being judged or criticized or humiliated or embarrassing themselves,”Ross said.
    Social anxiety disorder can interfere with daily routines and job performance,Ross noted.“It also makes it very difficult for people to develop friends and romantic partnerships,” she said.
    People with this disorder recognize their fear is excessive and irrational,Ross noted. “But they feel powerless to do anything about it,”she said.
    Social anxiety disorder can start in the early teens,Dr. Mark H.Pollack,director of the Center for Anxiety and Traumatic Stress Disorders and a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School,said during the teleconference.
    “This is a disorder that starts affecting people early on,”Pollack said.“The typical age of onset is early adolescence,age 12 or 13,and many individuals report a history of anxiety dating back to earlier childhood.”
    The disorder also has physical symptoms,including heart palpitations,feelings that their throat will close up,sweating,blushing,faintness,trembling and stammering,Ross said.
    Among people with the disorder,75 percent said the condition affected their ability to do normal activities. In addition,69 percent said they didn't want people to think they were crazy,and 58 percent said they were embarrassed by their condition,Ross said.
    However,when the condition is diagnosed and treated,many reported improvement in their lives.In fact,59 percent who were receiving treatment said treatment had a positive effect on their ability to have a romantic relationship.In addition,39 percent who had received treatment said knowing that treatment can be successful aided their decision to get help,Ross noted.

    What do people with social anxiety disorder think of their fear?
    A: They think it's beyond their control.
    B: They think it's beneficial.
    C: They think it's controllable.
    D: They think it's justified.

    答案:A
    解析:
    题干意为“患有社交焦虑症的人因害怕……而出名”。利用题干中的细节信息词fear作为定位线索,同时利用备选项中的细节信息词/短语作为定位线索normal lives, social or performance situations,在短文的第三段中找到相关句:Social anxiety disorder is when somebody has an intense,persistent and irrational fear of social or performance situa-tions,”Jerilyn Ross,the association's president and CEO,said during a teleconference Wednesday.相关句提到“美国焦虑症协会主席及总裁Jerilyn Ross星期三在电话会议上说,社交焦虑症是指一个人对社交场合或社交活动有着强烈的,持久的和非理性的恐惧”。由此可知答案为D项“害怕社交场合或社交活动”。
    题干意为“患有社交焦虑症的人怎么看待他们感受到的恐惧?”利用题干及备选项中的细节信息词fear, control作为定位线索,备选项中出现了大量的修饰词beneficial“有益的”,controllable“可控制的”,justified“正当的”,在查找相关句的过程中也关注这些修饰词在短文中的出现情况,在短文的第六段中找到相关句:People with this disorder recognize their fear is ex-cessive and irrational, Ross noted.“But they feel powerless to do anything about it,” she said.相关句提到“患有社交焦虑症的人意识到他们的恐惧是过分的,没有道理的。但是他们却对此无能为力”。由此可知答案为A项“他们认为他们的恐惧超出了他们的控制”。
    题干意为“关于患有社交焦虑症的人的陈述,下面哪个选项陈述的内容与短文内容不一致?”题干中没有细节信息词可以利用来作为定位线索,因此只能对备选项进行逐一判断:(第四段)“The condition causes people to avoid common. everyday situations and even other people for fear of being judged or criticized or humiliated or embarrassing them-selves,” Ross said.第四段提到“Ross说,这种状况使那些患有社交焦虑症的人逃避日常的交往甚至逃避与人接触,因为他们害怕被评论,被批评或是被羞辱,这会让他们非常尴尬”。显然D项“患有社交焦虑恐惧症的人往往会评论他人或批评他人”的意义与之意义不一致。所以答案D。该题主要考查考生对英语主被动语态的识别和理解。
    题干意为“从最后一段中可以了解到对社交焦虑的治疗是什么情况?”短文的最后一段表明,不少患者在经过治疗后都有好转。因此答案为D项“会导致病人生活得到改善”。

    When Fear Takes Control of the Mind

    A panic attack is a sudden feeling of terror. Usually it does not last long,but it may feel like forever. The
    cause can be something as normally uneventful as driving over a bridge or flying in an airplane.And it can
    happen even if the person has driven over many bridges or flown many times before.A fast heart beat. Sweaty
    hands.Difficulty in breathing. A light一headed feeling. At first a person may have no idea what is wrong. But
    these can all be signs of what is known as panic disorder. The first appearance usually is between the ages of 18
    and 25.In some cases it develop3 after a tragedy,like the death of a loved one,or some other difficult situation.
    In the United States,the National Institute of Mental Health says more than two million people are af-
    fected in any one-year period.The American Psychological Association says panic disorder is twice more like-
    ly in women than men.And it can last anywhere from a few months to a lifetime.
    Panic attacks can be dangerous一for example,if a person is driving at the time.The Chesapeake Bay
    Bridge in the state of Maryland is so long and so high over the water,and it is famous for scaring motorists.
    There is even a driver assistance program to help people get across.Some people who suffer a panic attack
    develop a phobia,a deep fear of ever repeating the activity that brought on the attack.
    But experts say panic disorder can be treated. Doctors might suggest anti-anxiety or anti-depressant
    medicines.Talking to a counselor could help a person learn to deal with or avoid a panic attack.There are
    breathing methods,for example,that might help a person calm down.Panic disorder is included among what
    mental health professionals call anxiety disorders.A study published last week reported a link between
    anxiety disorders and several physical diseases.It says these include thyroid disease,lung and stomach prob-
    lems,arthritis,migraine headaches and allergic conditions.Researchers at the University of Manitoba in
    Canada say that in most cases the physical condition followed the anxiety disorder. However,they say,exactly
    how the two are connected remains unknown.
    The report in the Archives of Internal Medicine came from a German health study of more than 4 ,000 adalts.

    According to a study,all of the following diseases may be associated with anxiety disorder EXCEPT_________.
    A:cancer diseases
    B:allergic conditions
    C:thyroid problems
    D:lung and stomach troubles

    答案:A
    解析:
    第一段第三、四行列出了包括A、B、C三个选项在内的各种症状(还包括fast heart-beat),但没有D项(低血压)。
    第二段第一句说到“more than two million" , C项的above与more than同义。
    第二段第二句说“女人患惊恐性障碍的可能性是男人的两倍”。twice as much as与 twice more than均表示前者是后者的两倍。
    第三段第二句提到马里兰州的切萨皮克海湾大桥吓坏开车的人是出了名的,其他地方 没有提到。应该注意的是,本题所问的是most likely(很可能),并不是the most likely(最可 能),因此并不涉及对四个选项所列场所进行比较的问题。
    第四段倒数第三句罗列了包括B、C、D三项在内的各个病种,但没有A项的“癌症”。
