Long ago， people believed that in the future we would work less, have more free time and get more relaxed． 1
Today we work harder, work longer hours and have more stresses than ten years ago．walk We faster, faster and sleep less than previous generations．talk And although we use machines that save us time, have less free time than our parents and grandparents． 2 An American journalist we James Gleick in a new book, says that people are suffering from “hurry sickness”－we’re trying 9 to do more things in less time．As a result, our lives are stressful．He says that if we don’t slow down, we won’t live as long as our parents． 3
Newspaper articles today are shorter and the headlines are bigger．Most people don’t have enough time to read the articles, they only read the headlines．TV and the radio, so On newsreaders speak more quickly than ten years ago．In the USA, there is a book called One－Minute Bedtime Stories for children．These are shorter versions(版本)of traditional stories, specially written for “busy parents” who want to save time! Some answer phones now have “quick playback” buttons so that we can replay people’s messages faster－we can’t waste time listening to people speaking at the normal speed! 4 Ten years ago when people went to art galleries they spent seconds looking at each picture．Today they spend just three seconds! Nowadays, many people prefer faster and dynamic sports like basketball．
5 Our cars are faster but the traffic is worse．so we drive more slowly．We spend more time sitting in our cars, feeling stressed．Experts predict that in ten years the average speed on the road in cities will be only 17 km/h．
A．People didn’t feel stressed ten years ago．
B．But unluckily，this has not happened yet．
C．Even when we relax we do everything more quickly．
D．But what is this doing to our health?
E．For most people，faster doesn’t mean better．
F．The only thing that is slower than before is the way we drive．
G．Now everything is faster than before，which brings us more convenience．

WASHINGTON－According to statistics compiled by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, 72 officers were killed by criminals in 2011, increased markedly in recently years．
The 2011 deaths were the first time that more officers were killed by suspects than car accidents．The number was the highest in nearly two decades, excluding those who died in the Sept．11 attacks in 2001 and the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995．
While the F．B．I．and other law enforcement(执行)officials cannot fully explain the reasons for the rise in officer homicides, they are clear about the terrible consequences．
“In this law enforcement job, when you pin this badge on and go out on calls, when you leave home, you can't guarantee that you will come back,” said Sheriff Ray Foster of Buchanan County, Va．
After a series of killings in early 2011, Attorney General Eric H．Holder Jr．asked federal authorities to work with local police departments to try to come up with solutions to the problem．
The F．B．I．, which has tracked officer deaths since 1937, paid for a study conducted by John Jay College that found that in many cases the officers were trying to arrest or stop a suspect who had previously been arrested for a violent crime．
That prompted the F．B．I．to change what information it will provide to local police departments, the officials said．Starting this year, when police officers stop a car and call its license plate into the F．B．I．'s database, they will be told whether the owner of the vehicle has a violent history．Through the first three months of this year, the number of police fatalities has dropped, though it is unclear why．
Some law enforcement officials believe that techniques pioneered by the New York Police Department over the past two decades and adopted by other departments may have put officers at greater risk by encouraging them to conduct more street stops and to seek out and confront(对抗)suspects who seem likely to be armed．In New York and elsewhere, police officials moved more officers into crime-ridden areas．
Some argue that the rise in violence is linked to the tough economy．With less money, police departments, after years of staffing increases, have been forced to make cutbacks(削减)．
The police chief in Camden, N．J．, J．Scott Thomson, whose force of 400 was cut by nearly half last year because of financing issues, said that having fewer officers on the street “makes it that much more difficult to create an environment in which criminals do not feel as encouraged to attack another person, let alone a law enforcement officer．”
“Every stop can be potentially fatal, so we are trying to make sure the officers are ready and prepared to face deadly force every single day they go out．” Ms．Klimt said．
