Frequent quarrels (争吵) in family life and work not only destroy their happiness, they also leave them feeling upset. Danish researchers found men and women who are often in quarrels are two to three times more likely to die young.They examined nearly 9,875 men and women aged between 36 and 52 to note the influence of quarrels rates on early death. They were asked about their relationship (关系) with friends, family, children and co-workers.The researchers said stress (精神压力) led to high blood pressure and heart disease, which are the key to risk factors (风险因素) for early death. Nearly 19 per cent of people said children and parents caused stress. About eight per cent reported feeling stressful because of demands from social relations.While weve known the protective role that healthy social relations play, the results of this study suggest that social relations are actually more like a double-edged sword, as they can also be destructive when unhealthy, said Dr Simon Rego, the director of Albert Einstein College of Medicine.The findings prove men are especially vulnerable (易受伤害的) to being under the high pressure of providing for a family, the study said. And that explains why more men die from heart disease at a young age, the researchers said.They ask people to develop skills to deal with stressful events to reduce early death. According to these findings, we conclude that designing and carrying out psychological treatment (心理治疗), which focuses on teaching specific skills like how to manage worries and demands from close social relations, as well as quarrel management within families, may be an important method for reducing early death, Dr Rego told Health Day News.56. What do we know about the study? A. It focused on improving relationships. B. 27 per cent of the people were quarrelsome. C. It aimed to find a reason behind early death. D. Most of the people were upset by family stress.57. The underlined part in Paragraph 4 means social relations _. A. do more harm than good B. may bring stress sometimes C. affect peoples lives greatly D. are the main reason for early death58. The researchers seem to advise people to _. A. take enough exercise B. ask some experts for help C. find some ways to reduce stress D. have as few social activities as possible59. Men are more likely to die young because of high pressure of _. A. unhappy lives B. raising a family C. childrens education D. competition at work60. What should be the best title for the passage? A. Why quarrel? B. Want to live long? C. Die at an early age D.
