Like a lot of health－care professionals Dr Brian Goldman finds it extremely difficult to draw boundaries between his work and personal lives
There's this view that you should suck it up and do one more thing says the ER physician and host of CBC's White Coat Black Art But that one more thing often comes at Goldman's expense
You're exhausted and a patient or their family look at you with begging eyes he says So you have this dilemma say that your shift is over or give until you're totally spent？ Goldman's work stress combined with family tension after his mother was diagnosed with dementia 20 years ago Caring for her over a decade was difficult as was dealing with his father's grief When someone else is drowning you you have to grab a life preserver and save yourself says Goldman
Setting boundaries isn't just important for busy professionals everyone can benefit from managing situations that cause undue stress or pain Here are some tips
First If someone's behavior makes you unhappy—and it could be anything from the way they speak to you to repeatedly failing to stick to their promise—then there's room to set limits says Patrick Keelan a Calgary psychologist We often avoid setting limits because we prioritize the happiness and comfort of others over ours In order to control this__impulse__Goldman suggests framing the development of boundaries as a form of self－kindness When facing an overwhelming situation like the one he was in with his father Goldman suggests reflecting on what is making you feel uncomfortable unhappy or unappreciated
You can't relate to others or be kind to others if you aren't kind to yourself he says
Second once you've become more aware of your needs setting and maintaining boundaries requires clear verbal communication There are three obstacles to enforcing boundaries in a relationship fear guilt and self－doubt says psychologist Nicole McCance We often fear that if we set limits the other person will reject us or we feel bad claiming our needs Keelan proposes setting ground rules before relationships become tense Start by cooperatively listing values—like mutual respect support and loyalty—and then building the guidelines from these values If you're struggling to reach a consensus Keelan recommends engaging a third party such as a therapist to help
Now if you want a boundary to stick to you can't enable someone in breaking it As such it's crucial to establish consequences for transgressions(越轨) Otherwise McCance says you're giving them permission to violate that boundary If they won't respect your boundaries you have to do some soul－searching about the value of the relationship When you feel bad more than you feel good in this person's presence and when the relationship is impacting your self－worth and happiness it's time to reassess says McCance Saying no is hard but she suggests framing it as saying yes to healthier relationships
We're all better mothers and partners and brothers when we have boundaries
( )58 What do we know about Goldman
A He is in need of support in his work
B He is caught between his work and life
C He slides into the state of desperation
D He always puts his family at the first place
( )59 What do the underlined words this impulse refer to
A Prioritizing others' happiness B Avoiding setting limits
C Failing to stick to their promise D Framing the development of boundaries
( )60 What's the best title of the passage
A Do communicate B Do not cross
C Identify your limits D Say no and mean it
C
Babies have an astonishing talent that adults entirely lose By the age of one they can recognise the significant noises around them and group them into a language When we have lost this capacity as adults it becomes enormously difficult to distinguish between sounds that are glaringly different to a native speaker It all sounds Greek to us This is because the range of possible sounds that humans use to convey meaning may be as high as 2000 but few languages use more than 100 and even then the significant noises
—the phonemes(音素) of a language—each cover a range of sounds and so vague distinctions which would change the meaning of a word in other languages
But where do these phonemes come from and why do they shift over time New research suggests that the apparently arbitrary distribution of some sounds around the world may be partially explained by diet This is unexpected We'd rather think of language as the product of our thought rather than of the arrangement of our teeth In reality though any given language must be both
Hunter gatherer languages very seldom use the sounds known as labiodentals(唇齿音)—those such as f and v—that are made by touching the lower lip with the upper teeth Only two of the hundreds of Australian aboriginal languages use them for example But in cultures that have discovered farming these consonants(辅音) are much more common The argument goes that farmers eat more cooked food and more dairy than hunter gatherers Either way they need to chew much less and to bite less with their front teeth So farmers grew up with smaller lower jaws and more of an overbite than their ancestors who had to bite through harder foods It became easier for them to make the labiodental consonants instead of purely labial(唇音) ones one example is that f came to take the place of p Romans said pater but English speakers(unless they're Rees－Moggs) say father．
Beyond these particular changes the story highlights the way in which everything distinctively human is both material and spiritual speech must combine sound and meaning and the meaning can't exist or be transmitted without a real object But neither can it be reduced to the purely physical as our inability to understand or even to recognise foreign languages makes clear The food we eat shapes our jaws and our jaws in turn shape the sounds of our language The ease with which we eat probably shapes our thought too as anyone who has suffered toothache could testify What we eat may have shaped the sounds of our language but how we eat changes how we feel and what we use language to express A family meal is very different from a sandwich at the office desk even if the calorie is the same Food has purposes and meanings far beyond keeping us alive and pleasing the palate(味觉)．
( )61 Compared with adults babies could more easily ________．
A create significant noises B classify the forms of noises
C understand the Greek language D distinguish meaningful sounds
( )62 According to the passage which of the following factors help shape language
A Lips and teeth B Jobs and habits
C Age and regions D Food and thinking
( )63 The reason for farmers' making sounds of f and v is ________．
A enjoying more cooked foods B biting more with front teeth
C constantly chewing harder foods D growing up with larger lower jaws
( )64 By writing this passage the author intends to reveal ________．
A jaws help shape our thought B food determines our thought
C diet has some influence on language D language consists of sound and meaning
D
British children used to play conkers(板栗游戏) in the autumn when the horse－chestnut trees started to drop their shiny brown nuts They would select a suitable chestnut drill a hole in it and thread it onto a string then swing their conker at that of an opponent until one of them broke But the game has fallen out of favour Children spend less time outdoors and rarely have access to chestnut trees Besides many schools have banned conkers games worried that they might cause injuries or nut allergies
That sort of risk－averseness(规避风险) now spreads through every aspect of childhood Playgrounds have all the excitement designed out of them to make them safe Many governments particularly in societies such as America have tightened up their rules requiring parents to supervise(监) young children far more closely than in the past Frank Furedi of the University of Kent a critic on modern parenting argues that allowing children to play unsupervised or leaving them at home alone is increasingly described as a symptom of irresponsible parenting
In part such increased caution is a response to the huge wave of changes Large－scale urbanization smaller and more mobile families the move of women into the labor market and the digitization of many aspects of life have unavoidably changed the way that people bring up their children There is little chance that any of these trends will be changed so today's more intensive(精细化) parenting style is likely to go on
Such parenting practices now embraced by wealthy parents in many parts of the rich world particularly in America go far beyond an adjustment to changes in external conditions They mean a strong bid to ensure that the advantages enjoyed by the parents' generation are passed on to their children Since success in life now turns mainly on education such parents will do their best to provide their children with the schooling the character training and the social skills that will secure access to the best universities and later the most attractive jobs
To some extent that has always been the case But there are more such parents now and they__are__competing__with__each__other__for__what__economists__call__positional__goods This competition starts even before the children are born The wealthy classes will take their time to select a suitable spouse and get married and will start a family only when they feel ready for it
Children from less advantaged backgrounds by contrast often appear before their parents are ready for them In America 60 of births to single women under 30 are unplanned and over 40 of children are born outside marriage The result certainly in America has been to widen already massive social inequalities yet further
All the evidence suggests that children from poorer backgrounds are at a disadvantage almost as soon as they are born By the age of five or six they are far less school－ready than their better－off peers so any attempts to help them catch up have to start long before they get to school America has had some success with various schemes involving regular home visits by nurses or social workers to low－income families with new babies It also has long experience with programmes for young children from poor families that combine support for parents with good－quality child care Such programmes do seem to make a difference Without extra effort children from low－income families in most countries are much less likely than their better－off peers to attend preschool education even though they are more likely to benefit from it And data from the OECD's PISA programme suggest that children need at least two years of preschool education to perform at their best when they are 15
So the most promising way to ensure greater equality may be to make early－years education and care far more widely available and more affordable as it is in the Nordics Some governments are already rethinking their educational priorities shifting some of their spending to the early years
Most rich countries decided more than a century ago that free compulsory education for all children was a worthwhile investment for society There is now an argument for starting preschool education earlier as some countries have already done In the face of crushing new inequalities a modern version of that approach is worth trying
( )65 What can we learn from the first two paragraphs
A More attention is placed on children's safety
B More and more parents are becoming irresponsible
C Children are no longer interested in outdoor activities
D Parents are advised to spend more time with their children
( )66 Which of the following about intensive parenting style is TRUE
A Chances are that this style could be changed
B Financial pressure forces parents to be stricter
C Rich families adopt such style to keep their advantages
D Such style is largely influenced by the size of the family
( )67 What does the underlined sentence imply
A Economists offer practical advice to guide parenting
B A happy marriage secures children's social positions
C Unfair division of social resources drives parents mad
D Parents are struggling for their children's edge over peers
( )68 Which is the proper measure to narrow the gap between the rich and the poor
A Parents are persuaded to give birth to babies in their later years
B Funds are provided for poor children after they are admitted to school
C New babies in low－income families are sent to nurses or social workers
D Children from low－income families are ensured to receive early education
( )69 What's the author's attitude towards investment in pre－school education
A Supportive B Disapproving C Skeptical D Unconcerned
( )70 The author begins the passage with the game of conkers to ________．
A show competition overweighs cooperation
B imply educational inequalities should be broken
C make readers aware of the rules of the game
D indicate the game has lost its appeal to children

On the surface one would be hard－pressed to find many similarities between German chancellor Angela Merkel Bangladeshi prime minister Sheikh Hasina and Liberian president Ellen Johnson Sirleaf—except for the fact that they are all female leaders of nations Merkel for example spent more than a decade as a chemist before going into politics while Hasina the daughter of Bangladesh's first president served as her father's political assistant while at college and Johnson Sirleaf worked at multiple financial institutions before running for vice president Is there something deeper than they share
The researcher Susan R Madsen of Utah Valley University interviewed women in some countries about their paths to leadership She was surprised by the similarities among the women when they spoke about how they became leaders Every single one of them talked about finding their voices and their confidence at dinner－table conversations with their families Their parents talked about politics about what was happening in the community and when the women had something to say their parents didn't stop them Madsen said
As part of a series of interviews on women and leadership I spoke to three women from different countries who have each become leaders in their respective fields Agnes Igoye of Uganda who works with her government to counter human trafficking Ikram Ben Said the founder of Tunisian women's rights organization Aswat Nissa and Sairee Chahal of India who started a digital platform that helps women get back into the workforce
All three of my interviewees pointed to the family environment they had been raised in—particularly a father figure who taught and empowered the women in the family to learn ask questions and form their own opinions Also mothers broke convention by displaying leadership within the family
Igoye for example credited her father with having the foresight to send his daughters to school despite opposition from others in their village Her mother went back to school as an adult to improve her career as a teacher which Igoye described as being a big influence on her Similarly Ben Said talked about how her father encouraged political debate among the family when she was growing up even when her opinions contradicted his Meanwhile Chahal said that even in her younger days her parents went against the general convention of expecting their daughters to aim only for a good husband
Another conclusion from Madsen's work is that women's leadership development doesn't look like men's Men tend to follow a more straight path to becoming a leader Women's paths are much emergent They tend to not necessarily look ahead and think I want to be on top’ Women would point to a number of experiences—motherhood or working with a non－profit or sitting on a board as shaping their path to becoming leaders
she said
Actually women leaders tend to be held to higher standards than their male counterparts Igoye has felt this in Uganda Women who take up leadership positions in my country have to be tough it's not easy at all she said You are always aware that you are representing all women You have to work extra hard to deliver to perform because if you do something wrong they will say Ah you see women’

Like a lot of health－care professionals Dr Brian Goldman finds it extremely difficult to draw boundaries between his work and personal lives
There's this view that you should suck it up and do one more thing says the ER physician and host of CBC's White Coat Black Art But that one more thing often comes at Goldman's expense
You're exhausted and a patient or their family look at you with begging eyes he says So you have this dilemma say that your shift is over or give until you're totally spent？ Goldman's work stress combined with family tension after his mother was diagnosed with dementia 20 years ago Caring for her over a decade was difficult as was dealing with his father's grief When someone else is drowning you you have to grab a life preserver and save yourself says Goldman
Setting boundaries isn't just important for busy professionals everyone can benefit from managing situations that cause undue stress or pain Here are some tips
First If someone's behavior makes you unhappy—and it could be anything from the way they speak to you to repeatedly failing to stick to their promise—then there's room to set limits says Patrick Keelan a Calgary psychologist We often avoid setting limits because we prioritize the happiness and comfort of others over ours In order to control this__impulse__Goldman suggests framing the development of boundaries as a form of self－kindness When facing an overwhelming situation like the one he was in with his father Goldman suggests reflecting on what is making you feel uncomfortable unhappy or unappreciated
You can't relate to others or be kind to others if you aren't kind to yourself he says
Second once you've become more aware of your needs setting and maintaining boundaries requires clear verbal communication There are three obstacles to enforcing boundaries in a relationship fear guilt and self－doubt says psychologist Nicole McCance We often fear that if we set limits the other person will reject us or we feel bad claiming our needs Keelan proposes setting ground rules before relationships become tense Start by cooperatively listing values—like mutual respect support and loyalty—and then building the guidelines from these values If you're struggling to reach a consensus Keelan recommends engaging a third party such as a therapist to help
Now if you want a boundary to stick to you can't enable someone in breaking it As such it's crucial to establish consequences for transgressions(越轨) Otherwise McCance says you're giving them permission to violate that boundary If they won't respect your boundaries you have to do some soul－searching about the value of the relationship When you feel bad more than you feel good in this person's presence and when the relationship is impacting your self－worth and happiness it's time to reassess says McCance Saying no is hard but she suggests framing it as saying yes to healthier relationships
We're all better mothers and partners and brothers when we have boundaries
( )58 What do we know about Goldman
A He is in need of support in his work
B He is caught between his work and life
C He slides into the state of desperation
D He always puts his family at the first place
( )59 What do the underlined words this impulse refer to
A Prioritizing others' happiness B Avoiding setting limits
C Failing to stick to their promise D Framing the development of boundaries
( )60 What's the best title of the passage
A Do communicate B Do not cross
C Identify your limits D Say no and mean it
C
Babies have an astonishing talent that adults entirely lose By the age of one they can recognise the significant noises around them and group them into a language When we have lost this capacity as adults it becomes enormously difficult to distinguish between sounds that are glaringly different to a native speaker It all sounds Greek to us This is because the range of possible sounds that humans use to convey meaning may be as high as 2000 but few languages use more than 100 and even then the significant noises
—the phonemes(音素) of a language—each cover a range of sounds and so vague distinctions which would change the meaning of a word in other languages
But where do these phonemes come from and why do they shift over time New research suggests that the apparently arbitrary distribution of some sounds around the world may be partially explained by diet This is unexpected We'd rather think of language as the product of our thought rather than of the arrangement of our teeth In reality though any given language must be both
Hunter gatherer languages very seldom use the sounds known as labiodentals(唇齿音)—those such as f and v—that are made by touching the lower lip with the upper teeth Only two of the hundreds of Australian aboriginal languages use them for example But in cultures that have discovered farming these consonants(辅音) are much more common The argument goes that farmers eat more cooked food and more dairy than hunter gatherers Either way they need to chew much less and to bite less with their front teeth So farmers grew up with smaller lower jaws and more of an overbite than their ancestors who had to bite through harder foods It became easier for them to make the labiodental consonants instead of purely labial(唇音) ones one example is that f came to take the place of p Romans said pater but English speakers(unless they're Rees－Moggs) say father．
Beyond these particular changes the story highlights the way in which everything distinctively human is both material and spiritual speech must combine sound and meaning and the meaning can't exist or be transmitted without a real object But neither can it be reduced to the purely physical as our inability to understand or even to recognise foreign languages makes clear The food we eat shapes our jaws and our jaws in turn shape the sounds of our language The ease with which we eat probably shapes our thought too as anyone who has suffered toothache could testify What we eat may have shaped the sounds of our language but how we eat changes how we feel and what we use language to express A family meal is very different from a sandwich at the office desk even if the calorie is the same Food has purposes and meanings far beyond keeping us alive and pleasing the palate(味觉)．
( )61 Compared with adults babies could more easily ________．
A create significant noises B classify the forms of noises
C understand the Greek language D distinguish meaningful sounds
( )62 According to the passage which of the following factors help shape language
A Lips and teeth B Jobs and habits
C Age and regions D Food and thinking
( )63 The reason for farmers' making sounds of f and v is ________．
A enjoying more cooked foods B biting more with front teeth
C constantly chewing harder foods D growing up with larger lower jaws
( )64 By writing this passage the author intends to reveal ________．
A jaws help shape our thought B food determines our thought
C diet has some influence on language D language consists of sound and meaning
D
British children used to play conkers(板栗游戏) in the autumn when the horse－chestnut trees started to drop their shiny brown nuts They would select a suitable chestnut drill a hole in it and thread it onto a string then swing their conker at that of an opponent until one of them broke But the game has fallen out of favour Children spend less time outdoors and rarely have access to chestnut trees Besides many schools have banned conkers games worried that they might cause injuries or nut allergies
That sort of risk－averseness(规避风险) now spreads through every aspect of childhood Playgrounds have all the excitement designed out of them to make them safe Many governments particularly in societies such as America have tightened up their rules requiring parents to supervise(监) young children far more closely than in the past Frank Furedi of the University of Kent a critic on modern parenting argues that allowing children to play unsupervised or leaving them at home alone is increasingly described as a symptom of irresponsible parenting
In part such increased caution is a response to the huge wave of changes Large－scale urbanization smaller and more mobile families the move of women into the labor market and the digitization of many aspects of life have unavoidably changed the way that people bring up their children There is little chance that any of these trends will be changed so today's more intensive(精细化) parenting style is likely to go on
Such parenting practices now embraced by wealthy parents in many parts of the rich world particularly in America go far beyond an adjustment to changes in external conditions They mean a strong bid to ensure that the advantages enjoyed by the parents' generation are passed on to their children Since success in life now turns mainly on education such parents will do their best to provide their children with the schooling the character training and the social skills that will secure access to the best universities and later the most attractive jobs
To some extent that has always been the case But there are more such parents now and they__are__competing__with__each__other__for__what__economists__call__positional__goods This competition starts even before the children are born The wealthy classes will take their time to select a suitable spouse and get married and will start a family only when they feel ready for it
Children from less advantaged backgrounds by contrast often appear before their parents are ready for them In America 60 of births to single women under 30 are unplanned and over 40 of children are born outside marriage The result certainly in America has been to widen already massive social inequalities yet further
All the evidence suggests that children from poorer backgrounds are at a disadvantage almost as soon as they are born By the age of five or six they are far less school－ready than their better－off peers so any attempts to help them catch up have to start long before they get to school America has had some success with various schemes involving regular home visits by nurses or social workers to low－income families with new babies It also has long experience with programmes for young children from poor families that combine support for parents with good－quality child care Such programmes do seem to make a difference Without extra effort children from low－income families in most countries are much less likely than their better－off peers to attend preschool education even though they are more likely to benefit from it And data from the OECD's PISA programme suggest that children need at least two years of preschool education to perform at their best when they are 15
So the most promising way to ensure greater equality may be to make early－years education and care far more widely available and more affordable as it is in the Nordics Some governments are already rethinking their educational priorities shifting some of their spending to the early years
Most rich countries decided more than a century ago that free compulsory education for all children was a worthwhile investment for society There is now an argument for starting preschool education earlier as some countries have already done In the face of crushing new inequalities a modern version of that approach is worth trying
( )65 What can we learn from the first two paragraphs

B More and more parents are becoming irresponsible
C Children are no longer interested in outdoor activities
D Parents are advised to spend more time with their children
( )66 Which of the following about intensive parenting style is TRUE
A Chances are that this style could be changed
B Financial pressure forces parents to be stricter

( )67 What does the underlined sentence imply
A Economists offer practical advice to guide parenting
B A happy marriage secures children's social positions
C Unfair division of social resources drives parents mad
D Parents are struggling for their children's edge over peers
( )68 Which is the proper measure to narrow the gap between the rich and the poor
A Parents are persuaded to give birth to babies in their later years
B Funds are provided for poor children after they are admitted to school
C New babies in low－income families are sent to nurses or social workers
D Children from low－income families are ensured to receive early education
( )69 What's the author's attitude towards investment in pre－school education
A Supportive B Disapproving C Skeptical D Unconcerned
( )70 The author begins the passage with the game of conkers to ________．
A show competition overweighs cooperation
B imply educational inequalities should be broken
C make readers aware of the rules of the game
D indicate the game has lost its appeal to children

On the surface one would be hard－pressed to find many similarities between German chancellor Angela Merkel Bangladeshi prime minister Sheikh Hasina and Liberian president Ellen Johnson Sirleaf—except for the fact that they are all female leaders of nations Merkel for example spent more than a decade as a chemist before going into politics while Hasina the daughter of Bangladesh's first president served as her father's political assistant while at college and Johnson Sirleaf worked at multiple financial institutions before running for vice president Is there something deeper than they share
The researcher Susan R Madsen of Utah Valley University interviewed women in some countries about their paths to leadership She was surprised by the similarities among the women when they spoke about how they became leaders Every single one of them talked about finding their voices and their confidence at dinner－table conversations with their families Their parents talked about politics about what was happening in the community and when the women had something to say their parents didn't stop them Madsen said
As part of a series of interviews on women and leadership I spoke to three women from different countries who have each become leaders in their respective fields Agnes Igoye of Uganda who works with her government to counter human trafficking Ikram Ben Said the founder of Tunisian women's rights organization Aswat Nissa and Sairee Chahal of India who started a digital platform that helps women get back into the workforce
All three of my interviewees pointed to the family environment they had been raised in—particularly a father figure who taught and empowered the women in the family to learn ask questions and form their own opinions Also mothers broke convention by displaying leadership within the family
Igoye for example credited her father with having the foresight to send his daughters to school despite opposition from others in their village Her mother went back to school as an adult to improve her career as a teacher which Igoye described as being a big influence on her Similarly Ben Said talked about how her father encouraged political debate among the family when she was growing up even when her opinions contradicted his Meanwhile Chahal said that even in her younger days her parents went against the general convention of expecting their daughters to aim only for a good husband
Another conclusion from Madsen's work is that women's leadership development doesn't look like men's Men tend to follow a more straight path to becoming a leader Women's paths are much emergent They tend to not necessarily look ahead and think I want to be on top’ Women would point to a number of experiences—motherhood or working with a non－profit or sitting on a board as shaping their path to becoming leaders
she said
Actually women leaders tend to be held to higher standards than their male counterparts Igoye has felt this in Uganda Women who take up leadership positions in my country have to be tough it's not easy at all she said You are always aware that you are representing all women You have to work extra hard to deliver to perform because if you do something wrong they will say Ah you see women’
