After work,you go back home,open an app,place your order,and wait for your food to be
delivered to your home.This is how many young people eat in China these days.According to
the latest report from the China Internet Network Information Center,421 million Chinese people
use online food delivery services.That's equal to half of the total number of Internet users in
China.
Which group of people is ordering food online the most?For sure,it is mainly young people.
A recent report that was published by the China Hospitality Association and Meituan,a food
delivery service,showed that 86.3 percent of the service's users are between 20 and 34 years old.
These people are the main force driving the development of the food delivery industry.
Small families rely largely on food delivery services.According to the National Bureau
Statistics,Chinese families have changed in size over the past ten years.In 2002,only 7.7 percent
of families had only one person.But this number increased to 15.6 percent in 2017.The
percentage of two-person families rose from 18.4 in 2002 to 27.2 in 2017.For small families,
cooking always takes a lot of time and energy,so ordering food online has become more popular.
The improvement of China's food delivery services has also made more customers interested
According to Meituan's report,the average time it takes to make a food delivery dropped from
38 minutes in 2016 to 29 minutes in 2020.Many delivery platforms are also offering more
services,delivering products such as fruit,vegetables,medicine and even flowers.As their

Researchers in the psychology department at the University of Califoria at Los Angeles(UCLA)
have discovered a major difference in the way men and women respond to stress.This difference may
explain why men are more likely to suffer from stress-related disorders.
Until now,psychological research has maintained that both men and women have the same
"fight-or-flight"reaction to stress.In other words,individuals either react with aggressive behavior,such
as verbal or physical conflict ("fight"),or they react by withdrawing from the stressful situation
(flight").However,the UCLA research team found that men and women have quite different biological
and behavioral responses to stress.While men often react to stress in the fight-or-flight response,women
often have another kind of reaction which could be called"tend and befriend."That is,they often react to
stressful conditions by protecting and nurturing their young("tend"),and by looking for social contact and
support from others-especially other females("befriend").
Scientists have long known that in the fight-or-flight reaction to stress,an important role is played by
certain hormones()released by the body.The UCLA research team suggests that the female
tend-or-befriend response is also based on a hormone.This hormone,called oxytocin,has been studied in
the context of childbirth,but now it is being studied for its role in the response of both men and women to
stress.The principal investigator,Dr.Shelley E.Taylor,explained that "animals and people with high
levels of oxytocin are calmer,more relaxed,more social,and less anxious."While men also secrete()
oxytocin,its effects are reduced by male hormones.
In terms of everyday behavior,the UCLA study found that women are far more likely than men to
seek social contact when they are feeling stressed.They may phone relatives or friends,or ask directions
if they are lost.
The study also showed how fathers and mothers responded differently when they came home to their
family after a stressful day at work.The typical father wanted to be left alone to enjoy some peace and
quiet.For a typical mother,coping with a bad day at work meant focusing her attention on her children
and their needs.
The differences in responding to stress may explain the fact that women have lower frequency of
stress-related disorders such as high blood pressure or aggressive behavior.The tend-and-befriend
regulatory()syster may protect women against stress,and this may explain why women on
average live longer than men.
51.The UCLA study shows that in response to stress,men are more likely than women to
A.turn to friends for help
B.solve a conflict calmly
C.find an escape from reality
D.seek comfort from children
52.Which of the following is true about oxytocin according to the passage?
A.Men have the same level of oxytocin as women do.
B.Oxytocin used to be studied in both men and women.
C.Both animals and people have high levels of oxytocin.
D.Oxytocin has more of an effect on women than on men.
53.What can be learned from the passage?
A.Male hormones help build up the body's resistance to stress.
B.In a family a mother cares more about children than a father does.
C.Biological differences lead to different behavioral responses to stress.
D.The UCLA study was designed to confirm previous research findings.
54.The underlined word in the Paragraph 5 may mean
A.managing
B.enduring
C.claiming
D.ignoring
55.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?
A.How men and women get over stress
B.How men and women suffer from stress
C.How researchers overcome stress problems D.How researchers handle stress-related disorders
IV阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
Grandparents'Day is a warm holiday that allows children and adults an opportunity to show
their appreciation for their Grandparents.Grandparents'Day and the weeks just before it are the
time when children all over the country start thinking about what to get their Grandmothers and
Grandfathers as presents for Grandparents'Day.Of course,giving presents is just one way of
celebrating Grandparents'Day,but how to give gifts requires planning.
Choosing presents for Grandparents'Day can be a very difficult task.Because Grandparents
Day and holidays of its kind are meant to honor some of the most important people in our lives,
the task of choosing presents that will be appropriate can be challenging.You don't know what
they like and what can show how much you love and care for them.Especially for those children
who do not have much money,finding the suitable Grandparents'Day present at the right price is
a very difficult task.
One solution to the difficulty is not to buy anything at all.Rather than buying a material item
that is almost sure to be short of expressing the depth and sincerity()of your feelings for
your Grandmother or Grandfather,consider another kind of choice entirely.One way that you
can show a Grandparent that you really care is to make them something.A handmade card or
flower or a written poem can go a long way towards expressing your love on Grandparents'Day.
Of course,there are also a lot more other ways to celebrate Grandparents'Day than by just
giving presents to your parents.
56.What is the main purpose of Grandparents'Day according to the passage?(No more than 12
words)
57.Why is it challenging for children to choose appropriate gifts for their grandparents?(No
more than 20 words)

Grandparents'Day?Why or why not?(No more than 25 words)
