ActivitiesDHands-on ActivitiesCPretending to be happy can actually make you more miserable 一 especially if youre a woman, according to a new studyThe research found that women suffered more than men when pretending to be happyPsychologist Dr Brent Scott, who led the study said employers should take note because forcing workers to smile when dealing with customers can backfireHe said： Smiling for the sake of smiling throughout the day can lead to emotional exhaustion （枯竭）and then withdraw from work, so their productivity drops and thats bad for the organization, ” He added ： “Bosses may think that getting their staff to smile is good for the organization, but thats not necessarily the case”Dr Scott, assistant professor of management at Michigan State University, analyzed a group of bus drivers during a two-week periodHis team examined the effects of surface acting” 一 pretending to smile, compared with what was termed “deep acting” 一 cultivating （培养）positive emotions by recalling pleasant memoriesHe said： “Women were harmed more by surface acting meaning their mood worsened even more than the men and they withdrew more from work” However, they were helped more by deep acting, which means their mood improved more and they withdrew lessTherefore，pretending to be happy while feeling down is more likely to go against their normal behavior and cause more harmful feelingsAlthough ,“deep acting” seemed to improve mood in the short-term, Dr Scott says its not a long-term solution （解决方 法）to feeling unhappyHe said： “Youre trying to cultivate positive emotions, but at the end of the day you may not feel like yourself anymore”63What does the text mainly tell us?AWomen suffer more than men when pretending to be happyBIt is wrong of employers to force the workers to smile all the timeCCultivating positive emotions is a must for the women workersDMen are harmed less by “surface acting, than by “deep acting”64The finding of the research might serve as a warning especially to _ Awomen employers BcustomersDbus drivers Dbosses65The underlined word “backfire” in Paragraph 2 probably means _ Bsuffer from hard workCget angry more easily C have the opposite effectDbecome more productive70According to Dr Scott， _Awomen suffer more than men when always wearing a smileBworkers shouldnt wear forced smiles to please their bossCemployers should know the bad effect of forcing their workers to smileD“deep acting” is a good lasting solution to feeling unhappyDWould the voice of Amanda Holden saying “your city had talent” encourage you to use a litter bin?
