There is one extra evidence which you do not need to use. Although women have certainly made plenty of progress in the workplace over the past three decades, the glass ceiling remains firmly in place at many companies—especially when it comes to compensation. But some experts now suggest that the wage imbalance between the sexes could have as much to do with women"s failure to negotiate well as any other factor. So how can women—and men too, for that matter negotiate better deals in the workplace Miller recently spoke on the topic at a workshop organized by the Advertising Women of New York. Here"s a crash course on his findings: 【C1】Show enthusiasm. The most important mistake you can make is to act passive and wait for them to lure you with a fantastic offer. 【C2】Know what you want. You"re trying to get a better job than what you have, not a solution to all your problems. 【C3】Avoid showing your hand.

You arc going to read a list of headings and a text about panic attacks. Choose the most suitable heading from the list A~G for each numbered paragraph(1~5). There are two extra headings which you do not need to use. [A]What is panic disorder [B]Does it run in families [C]How can I cope [D]What is the best therapy [E]What causes a panic attack [F]How to diagnose panic attack [G]What is a panic attack It can come out of nowhere. You"re shopping for groceries or buckling your seat belt when suddenly your muscles contract and your heart begins to pound. Panic attacks can be both bewildering and terrifying, but they"re not unusual. An estimated 2. 4 million people experience one every year. It may begin as tightness in the chest, shortness of breath or a galloping heartbeat. Many sufferers believe they are having a heart attack and rush to the emergency room. Prevalence rates have been on the upswing since the 1950s, although many experts believe what seems like a trend is simply better diagnosis. 【C1】______ More than a feeling of anxiety, a panic attack produces distinctive physical symptoms. Each person experiences panic differently, but most people report intense fear accompanied by bodily sensations that can range from a racing heart to nausea and dizziness. Panic can come on suddenly or slowly and usually lasts no more than 20 minutes at its peak. 【C2】______ Scientists believe panic attacks stem from the brain"s "fight or flight" system gone awry, often ignited by stress or a traumatic event. In our high-octane society, that response can kick in with no real threat in sight or after the source of stress is long gone. Research suggests that chronic panic sufferers may be easily flummoxed by their bodily sensations. Someone vulnerable to panic might interpret a rapid heartbeat as a heart attack. If fear overwhelms her, the symptoms intensify in a vicious cycle. 【C3】______ Vulnerability to anxiety may have a biological basis. If a parent or sibling has panic attacks, a person"s risk increases by about sixfold. A Yale study found that panic attack sufferers had fewer serotonin receptors in their brains, while other studies suggest those with anxiety may have overly sensitive "suffocation alarm systems", which delect a shortage of oxygen even under normal conditions. 【C4】______ Panic attacks are so frightening that sufferers will do just about anything to avoid another. That may mean staying away from situations associated with anxiety. Someone who once panicked on an airplane might decide not to fly. But the fear often extends to other settings; the plane phobic might start to dread cars and buses as well. People with full-blown panic disorder, in which attacks are a frequent problem, feel constantly vulnerable, which forces them to be vigilant. Only about a third of people who get occasional panic attacks will go on to develop panic disorder. Even though men and women report the attacks with equal frequency, women are twice as likely to get the disorder. 【C5】______ Antidepressant medication may help alleviate panic. However, cognitive-behavioral therapy may work even better; researchers estimate that up to 80 percent of panic sufferers can be helped by psychotherapy alone. Therapists often treat panic by exposing the patient to feared settings of increasing intensity. Exposure therapy can also include exposure to the physical sensations of panic spinning clients in circles to make them dizzy, having them inhale carbon dioxide or breathe through a straw or jog to raise their heart rates. Once clients learn that those feelings do not signal impending doom, they can better withstand panic - and eventually prevent it altogether. 【C3】

In the following text, some sentences have been removed. For Questions 1~5, choose the most suitable one from the list A~G to fit into each of the numbered blanks. There are two extra choices, which do not fit in any of the blanks. During the past decade, the United States and Russia have joined in a number of efforts to reduce the danger posed by the enormous quantity of weapons-usable material withdrawn from nuclear weapons. Other countries and various private groups have assisted in this task.【C1】______ These risks fall into three classes: the risk that some fraction, be it large or small, of the inventories of nuclear weapons held by eight countries will be detonated either by accident or deliberately; the risk that nuclear weapons technology will diffuse to additional nations; and the risk that nuclear weapons will reach the hands of terrorist individuals or groups. 【C2】______ Indeed, success in containing these risks would fly in the face of historical precedent. All new technologies have become dual-use, in that they have been used both to improve the human condition and as tools in military conflict. Moreover, all new technologies have, in time, spread around the globe. But this precedent must be broken with respect to the release of nuclear technology. 【C3】______ Since the end of the Cold War, the likelihood that one or another country would deliberately use nuclear weapons has indeed lessened, although the consequences of such use would be enormous. Therefore, this risk has by no means disappeared. In particular, nuclear weapons might be used in a regional conflict, such as between India and Pakistan. 【C4】______All other nations of the world have joined the treaty as "Non-Nuclear Weapons States",but one country(North Korea)has withdrawn. Some countries—presumed to include Iran and. until the ouster of Saddam Hussein, Iraq—maintain ambitions to gain nuclear weapons. A much larger number of countries have pursued nuclear weapons programs in the past but have been persuaded to abandon them. 【C5】______In order to decrease the discriminatory nature of the agreement, the nations possessing nuclear weapons are obligated to assist other nations in the peaceful applications of nuclear energy. And, most important of all, the Nuclear Weapons States have agreed to reduce the role of nuclear weapons in international relations and to work in good faith toward their elimination. It is in respect to this latter obligation that the United States has been most deficient. In fact, the current Bush administration"s recent Nuclear Posture Review projects an indefinite need for many thousands of nuclear weapons, and even searches for new missions for them. [A]Therefore, the prevention of nuclear catastrophe caused by terrorists has to rely either on interdicting the explosive materials that are essential to making nuclear weapons(highly enriched uranium and plutonium, in particular)or on preventing the hostile delivery of such weapons. [B]The risk of proliferation of nuclear weapons among countries has been limited in the past by the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty(NPT), signed in 1968. The treaty recognizes five countries as "Nuclear Weapons States," and three other countries not party to the treaty are de facto possessors of nuclear weapons. [C]The United States has undertaken diverse programs to reduce these risks. But efforts have been slow and irregular, and the priorities in addressing these problems have been distorted by politics. [D]But many impediments have prevented effective results, and most of the dangers still remain. Even more troubling, this threat is only one of several risks imposed on humanity by the existence of nuclear weapons. [E]Risk is the product of the likelihood of an adverse event multiplied by the consequences of that event. [F]The NPT is a complex bargain that discriminates between have and have-not countries. The have-not nations have agreed not to receive nuclear weapons, their components, or relevant information, whereas the Nuclear Weapons States have agreed not to furnish these items. [G]Although public agencies and private groups in the United States have been working with Russia to improve "materials protection control and accounting" of its dangerous materials, actual achievements have been moderate. 【C4】
