“Lately, I have been feeling very stressed and easily lose my temper at people around me,” said Susan Huang. Her troubles are typical of someone her age, according to a survey by the Chinese Academy of Science’s Psychology Institute. In 2000, the institute’s researchers began surveying close to 8,000 people nationwide. People were studied in relation to the pressures they felt during periods of transition.
The results of the survey were released last week, and they make for the interesting reading. For example, people used to take for granted that the older they were, the more pressure they felt.
But, surprisingly, the results have shown that young people in their twenties are the most stressed. This is because young people are forming their values at a time when Chinese society is undergoing great changes, explained Chen Long, a member of the survey team.
“Society is changing and neither their parents nor their teachers can teach them enough to know how to cope with it,” Chen said. Some of them get anxious from the overwhelming amount of information in the wired world, Chen added.
Another problem is that the economic reforms have forced people to develop a more competitive attitude. Those surveyors said they felt more pressure from heavier work-loads, increased peer competition, and greater responsibilities.
Medical disputes and business activities increasingly find their way into people’s free time and simply add to their stress, the survey showed.
Then there is the pressure to achieve more also weighing heavily on people. This is particularly true for those with higher education. Those people really want to acquire new knowledge and use their ability to get ahead and get more out of society.
The researchers hope their survey will throw some light on the state of mental health among the Chinese during this period of major economic and political reforms.
61．Which of the following is one of the reasons for the pressures people felt?
A．people are forming their values.
B．Chinese society is not undergoing a period of transition.
C．The economic reforms have forced young people to develop a more competitive attitude.
D．People with higher education really want to achieve more.
62．What does the underlined word “they” refer to?
A．People getting stressed. B．The results of the survey.
C．Periods of transition. D．The researchers.
63．According to Huang, people with pressure are likely to ____.
A．form their values B．achieve more out of society
C．lose their temper D．make for interesting reading
64．The purpose of the author in writing this article is to ____.
A．share the state of people with pressure
B．tell us how to deal better with pressure
C．advise people to develop an active attitude to life
D．attract more attention to people’s mental health
