1、Passage 17
Since we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships. One strength of the human conditions is our tendency to give and receive support from one another under stressful circumstances. Social support consists of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties. Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to cope with life changes and daily hassles. People with strong
social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties. Studies over a range of illnesses, from depression to heart disease, reveal that the presence of social support helps people fend off illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health likely.
Social support cushions stress in a number of ways. First, friends, relatives, and co-workers may let us know that they value us. Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others despite our faults and difficulties. Second, other people often provide us with informational support. They help us to define and understand our problems and find solutions to them. Third, we typically find social companionship supportive. Engaging in leisure-time activities with others helps us to meet our social needs while at the same time distracting us from our worries and troubles. Finally, other people may give us instrumental support ― financial aid, material resources and needed services — that reduces stress by helping us resolve and cope with our problems.4.Helping a sick neighbor with some repair work is an example of( ).

1、Passage 13<The favorite food in the United States is hamburger. The favorite place to buy a hamburger is
a fast food restaurant. At a fast food restaurant, people order their food, wait a few minutes, and
carry it to their tables themselves. People also take their food out of the restaurant and eat it in
their cars or in their homes. At some fast food restaurants, people can order their food, pay for it
and pick it up without leaving their cars.
There are many kinds of fast food restaurants in the United States. The greatest in number
sell hamburgers, French fries and so on. They are popular food among Americans. Besides, Italian
food, chicken, seafood and ice-cream are very popular, too. The idea of a fast food restaurant is so
popular that nearly every kind of food can be found in one.
Fast food restaurants are popular because they reflect American life style. Customers can
wear any type of dress when they go to a fast food place. Second, they are fast. People who are
busy do not want to spend time preparing their own food or waiting while someone prepares it. In
fast food restaurants the food is usually ready before the customer even orders it. Finally most
food in a fast food restaurant is not expensive. Therefore people are able to buy and eat at a fast
food restaurant often, while they may not be able to go to a more expensive restaurant very often.
