“Further contradicting conventional wisdom, we found that women as well as men have lower levels of stress at work than at home,” writes one of the researchers. Sarah Damaske, In fact women say they feel better at work. She notes. “it is men not women. Who report being bappicr at home than at work,” Another surprise is that the findings hold true for both those with childrcn and without, but more so for nonparents. This is why pcoplc who work outside the home have better health.
What the study doesn’t measure is whether people are still doing work when they’ re at home, whether it is household work or work brought home from the office. For many men, the end of the workday is a time to kick back. For women who stay home, they never get to leave the office. And for women who work outside the home, they often are playing catch-up-with-household tasks. With the blurring of roles, and the fact that the home front lags well behind the workplace in making adjustments for working women, it’ s not surprising that women are more stressed at home.
But it’s not just a gender thing. At work, people pretty much know what they’re supposed to be doing: working, making money, doing the tasks they have to do in order to draw an income. The bargain is very pure: Employee puts in hours of physical or mental labor and employee draws out life-sustaining moola.
On the home front, however, people have no such clarity. Rare is the household in which the division of labor is so clinically and methodically laid out. There are a lot of tasks to be done, there are inadequate rewards for most of them. Your home colleagues-your family-have no clear rewards for their labor; they need to be talked into it, or if they’ re teenagers, threatened with complete removal of all electronic devices. Plus, they’ re your family. You cannot fire your family. You never really get to go home from home.
So it’s not surprising that people are more stressed at home. Not only are the tasks apparently infinite, the co-workers are much harder to motivate.
According to Paragraph 1，most previous surveys found that home______ .
A.was an un realistic place for relaxation
B.generated more stress than the workplace
C.was an ideal place for stress measurement
D.offered greater relaxation than the workplace
According to Damaske， who are likely to be the happiest at home？A.Working mothers
B.Childless husbands
C.Childless wives
D.Working fathers
The home front differs from the workplace in that______ .A.home is hardly a cozier working environment
B.division of labor at home is seldom clear-cut
C.household tasks are generally more motivating
D.family labor is often adequately rewarded
The word“moola”(Line 4，Para 4)most probably means______ .A.energy
B.skills
C.earnings
D.nutrition
The blurring of working women’s roles refers to the fact that______ .A.they are both bread winners and housewives
B.their home is also a place for kicking back
C.there is often much housework left behind
D.it is difficult for them to leave their office
Eating disorders(混乱) is very common now.“When I first wrote about this,the problem was pretty much hidden… I didn&39;t expect ii to get:as bad as it is,”Susie Orbach,all intemational authority(权威) on eating disorders,said.
Orbach must at times think the anti-diet message of her book“Fat is a Feminist(女权主义的) Issue(问题)”has been lost since it was written more than 20 years ago.
Girls,boys,old people-even the famously well-rounded female(女性) population of Fiji is failing victim(牺牲品) to fat fears.“If anything the situation has got much,much worse.We now have kids as young aseight and women in old people&39;s homes worried about the way they look,” Orbach said.
Even though it has been proved that repeated dieting results in a little more than regaining most of the lost weight,constant dieting(节食) has become a way of life for many women 48 percent of British women aged 25 to 35 were on some kind of diet and that 20 percent of young wonen dieted all or most of time.Some of them said they would pop a pill to give them their beautiful shape.even if it meant risking their health.
Worldwide,70 million people have an eating disorder.Most are women,but men are increasingly affected,too.
More than half the women and two-thirds of the men in Britain weigh too much,while in the United States more than one quarter of adults and about one in five children are overweight.The idea that female beauty is a very thin body could be changed,if clothing factories and magazines showed images(形象) of women of an shapes instead of selecting skeletal-like models and stick thin actresses.But that is easier said than done.
To get her message across.Orbach is also considering talking to pop stars such as Victoria Beckham and Geri Halliwell,both of whom have admitted(承认) having suffered from eating disorders.

Why do women earn less than men do？ Are the differences explained by the fact that women are looked down upon？ If so, the government has to intervene (干预), to force the employers to pay equal wages to equal jobs. However, there is no agreement among economists about the causes of the gap. One view argues that women on the average have chosen low-paid jobs in which workers enjoy the freedom of entering and leaving the labor force, which reduces their years of experience relative to men. Other people say the gap can also be explained by the difference in educational background.
Much of the gap, however, has not been fully explained. It might be the result of some prejudice (偏见) against women. It is this part that has produced calls for government action. What would happen if the government did intervene to increase the wages paid to women？ One possibility is that in comes for women as a group might actually decline (下降). An increase in wage decreases the quantity of labor imput demanded, resulting in decreased employment as the rate of hiring new workers declines The result will be a surplus (过剩) of labor. Those who can find jobs might be better off while those who had jobs might find themselves out of work.
The difference in labor incomes is most obvious between ______.
A．young men and young women
B．young women in the same industry
C．middle-aged men and middle-aged women
D．middle-aged women in the same industry
