12、re severe: Many suffered from marital problems, failed in school or lost a job, and accumulated debt. The evidence points to a psychological disorder, so researchers probed further and found that the participants, habits met the criteria for impulse control disorders, mental illnesses characterized

13、by an uncontrollable desire to perform a behavior that once executed, is often followed by a huge sense of relief.

20、e hears children wishing they were grown up, and old people wishing they were young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.Youth is a time when there are few tasks to make life

21、 difficult. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved whatever he may do. It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. In addition, life is always presenting new things to the childthings that have lost their inte

22、rest for older people because they are too well-known. But a child has his pains: he is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is continually being told not to do things, or being punished for what he has done wrong.When the young man starts to earn his own living, he can no longer expect others

23、 to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably.

And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to priso

Health.Passage FourA few years ago it was common to speak of a generation gap between young people and their elders. Parents said that children d

28、id not respect and listen to them, while children said that their parents did not understand them at all. What had gone wrong? Why had the generation gap suddenly appeared? Actually, the generation gap has been around for a long time. Many people argue that it is built into every part of our society

29、.One important cause of the generation gap is the opportunity that young people have to choose their own ways of life. In a more traditional society, when children grow up, they are expected to live in the same area as their parents, to marry people that their parents know and like, and often to con

30、tinue the family jobs. In our society, young people often travel great distances for their education, move out of the family at an early age, marry or live with people whom their parents have never met, and choose jobs different from those of their parents.In our society, parents often expect their

31、children to do better than they did, to find better jobs, to make more money and to do all the things that they were unable to do. Often, that is another cause of the gap between them. Often, they discover that they have very little in common with each other.Finally, the speed at which changes take

32、place in our society is the third cause of the gap between the generations. In a traditional culture, senior people are valued for their knowledge, but in our society the knowledge of a lifetime may become out of date. The young and the old seem to live in two very different worlds, separated by dif

33、ferent skills and abilities. No doubt, the generation gap will continue in American life for some time to come.16.

The gay community was very much in sight and vocal （呼声高的）and successfully got support for its cause. Now we are rapidly approaching the point where abo

38、ut one half of all AIDS cases in the world are women. But no one is taking this dangerously high level of infection among women seriously enough.Women usually have a worse time dealing with HIV than men do. In most cases, the woman is taking care of children as well as her sick partner. She may not

39、even have time to take care of herself. The HIV-positive woman ends up shouldering the family as well as her own personal problems. Men, however, are usually the ones who have insurance（保险）,income and access to doctors. They get care. Women often do not.The discrimination （歧视）against HIV-positive wo

40、men is simply terrible. They are likely to be more inactive than men in the home and workplace because too many people think that women are the cause of the disease. This is not at all true. They get it from a man. They dont just simply have HIV. Of course, theres a social discrimination against all

41、 people with HIV. They are scared that other people will know they are HIV-positive and that they will, therefore, be discriminated against. For example, its very difficult for people with HIV to travel. They are not allowed to enter many countries, including the United States, China and Russia.The

42、biggest difficulty an HIV-positive woman must face is the isolation (孤立).Once the woman knows shes HIV-positive, she lives in fear that other people will find out. She* s so frightened she will go into hiding, into an isolated place by herself. It*s not at all uncommon to meet a woman who has been H

43、IV-positive for nearly 10 years and has never told anyone, except her doctor. And the resulting stress is enough to make her sick.
