radiation has a certain mystery about it, partly because it cannot be detected by human senses. it cant be seen or heard, or touched or tasted, even though it may be all around us. there are other things like that. for example, radio waves are all around us but we cant detect them, sense them, without a radio receiver. similarly, we cant sense radioactivity without a radiation detector. but unlike common radio waves, nuclear radiation is not harmless to human beings and other living things.at very high levels, radiation can kill an animal or human being outright (全部地) by killing masses of cells in vital organs. but even the lowest level of radiation can do serious damage. there is no level of radiation that is completely safe. if the radiation does not hit anything important, the damage may not be significant. this is the case when only a few cells are hit, and if they are killed outright, your body will replace the dead cells with healthy ones. but if the few cells are only damaged, and if they reproduce themselves, you may be in trouble. they reproduce themselves in adeformedway. they can grow into cancer. sometimes this does not show up for many years.this is another reason for some of the mystery about nuclear radiation. serious damage can be done without the victim being aware at the time that damage has occurred. a person can be irradiated and feel fine, then die of cancer five, ten, or twenty years later as a result. or a child can be born weak or liable (易于) to serious illness as result of radiation absorbed by its grandparents.radiation can hurt us. we must know the truth.29.which of the following statements is true?a.nuclear radiation is just like common radio waves.b.nuclear radiation can cause cancer to human beings.c.nuclear radiation can be detected by human senses.d.nuclear radiation can be safe to human beings if its level is low.30.how can nuclear radiation kill an animal?a.by damaging its heartb.by killing a few cellsc.by hitting any place in its bodyd.by killing many cells in important organs31.if a human being is hit by nuclear radiation,he may .a.die of cancer after many years b.die immediatelyc.have a child who may be born weakd.all of the above d being the boss might mean more money and challenging work but it can also cause damage to physical and mental well-being, according to a canadian study.for years studies have shown people in lower-status jobs generally have higher rates of heart disease and other illnesses and die earlier than those in higher-status positions while job authority has shown no relationship with workers health.but university of toronto researchers, using data from 1,800 us workers, found the health of people in higher positions is affected by work as they are more likely to report conflicts with co-workers and say work disturbs their home life.however, the positive aspects of having a power position at work, such as higher status, more pay and greater independence, seemed to cancel out the negative aspects when it came to peoples physical and psychological health.these latest findings, reported in the journal social science & medicine, suggest that the advantages and disadvantages authority positions basically cancel each other out, giving the general impression that job authority has no health effects.for the study, the researchers surveyed participants about various aspects of their work, life and well-being. job authority was judged based on whether a person managed other employees and had power over hiring, firing and pay.physical health complaints included problems like headaches, body aches, heartburn and tiredness. psychological complaints included sleep problems, difficulty concentrating and feelings of sadness, worry and anxiety.“this isnt to suggest that having authority is badin fact, we show it has benefits . but it is important to identify the negative sides and deal with them.” researcher scott schieman said.schieman said conflicts with co-workers or involvement of work into home life may destroy at physical and mental well-being by creating stress.“these are key stressors that can tax individuals ability to function effectively,” schieman said.32. work will have a negative effect on job authoritys health probably because _.a. they are not fit for their work b. they have power over hiring and pay c. they are faced with severe competition d. they dont get on well with their co-workers33. most people dont see that bosses have health effects because _. a. their health problems are not serious enough to see b. they have enough money to keep themselves healthy c. their problems are quite different from those of workers d. the advantages and disadvantages of their status work against each other34. from the passage we can infer that the study aims to _. a. warn people not to be a boss for ever b. remind the boss to deal with the bad effects of their work c. show that having authority is harmful to ones health d. prove that being a boss can benefit a lot35. the best title for this passage might be _. a. lower-status can affect healthb. authority can affect health c. positive aspects of a power positiond.
