right balance of work and leisure(闲暇)in our lives? Are our relationships with family, friends or fellow workers all they should be?
All these things can be a cause of stress, and it is best to face them honestly, and to bring our frustrations( 失意)into the open.
People who have a good row and then forget it are doing their health more good than those who bottle their feelings.
If our self-examination has brought any causes of stress to light, let us consider what we can do about them. It is possible to change jobs. We can make more leisure and fill it more happily, if we will accept a different living standard. We can improve our personal relationships by a different attitude. It is we who allow other people to make ourselves unhappy. Often the little things that disturb us are not worth an hour’s anger. The teaching in the Bible “ Let not the sun go down upon your wrath(anger)” is good advice from the health point of view as well as the religious.

Passage 4
Scientists have developed a slimming（减肥）drug that successfully suppresses appetite and results in a dramatic loss of weight without any apparent ill effects.
The drug interferes with appetite control and prevents the build-up of fatty tissue. Laboratory mice given the drug lost up to a third of their total body weight.
Within 20 minutes of being given the drug, called C75, the mice lost interest in eating and survived apparently content on just 10 per cent of the food they would normally eat.
As a result, mice taking the drug lost 45 per cent more weight than mice fed the same amount of food, which compensate for the lack of food by becoming more lazy.
Scientists, from the Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, said that C75 is likely to produce a similar effect on humans because appetite control in brain is thought to be based on the same chemical pathways as those in mice.
“We are not claiming to have found a fabled（神奇的）weight-loss drug. What we have found, using C75, is a major pathway in the brain that body uses naturally in regulating appetite at least in mice,” said Francis Kuhajda, a pathologist and senior team member.

A. controls appetite and causes obvious weight loss B. reduces weight with some ill-effect
C. interferes with appetite and builds up fatty tissue D. is still going through laboratory tests

63. The mice taking C75 lose nearly half of their weight on the same amount of food become _______.
A. more active B. more lazy
C. more aggressive D. more noisy
64. C75 is likely to produce weight-loss effect on humans because ______. A. mice and humans have similar brain structure B. human’s are likely to be more lazy than mice
C. human’s appetite is regulated through the same pathway as mice’s D. mice and human body use different pathways of appetite control
65. What is the attitude of the scientists toward the slimming drug?
A. B. C. D.
