While still catching-up to men in some spheres of modern life, women appear to be way ahead in at least one undesirable category. "Women are particularly susceptible to developing depression and anxiety disorders in response to stress compared to men," according to Dr. Yehuda, chief psychiatrist at New York's Veteran's Administration Hospital.

Studies of both animals and humans have shown that sex hormones somehow affect the stress response, causing females under stress to produce more of the trigger chemicals than do males under the same conditions. In several of the studies, when stressed-out female rats had their ovaries (the female reproductive organs) removed, their chemical responses became equal to those of the males.

Adding to a woman's increased dose of stress chemicals, are her increased "opportunities" for stress. "It's not necessarily that women don't cope as well. It's just that they have so much more to cope with," says Dr. Yehuda. "Their capacity for tolerating stress may even be greater than men's," she observes, "it's just that they're dealing with so many more things that they become worn out from it more visibly and sooner."郑州大学考研论坛

Dr. Yehuda notes another difference between the sexes. "I think that the kinds of things that women are exposed to tend to be in more of a chronic or repeated nature. Men go to war and are exposed to combat stress. Men are exposed to more acts of random physical violence. The kinds of interpersonal violence that women are exposed to tend to be in domestic situations, by, unfortunately, parents or other family members, and they tend not to be one-shot deals. The wear-and-tear that comes from these longer relationships can be quite devastating."

Adeline Alvarez married at 18 and gave birth to a son, but was determined to finish college. "I struggled a lot to get the college degree. I was living in so much frustration that that was my escape, to go to school, and get ahead and do better." Later, her marriage ended and she became a single mother. "It's the hardest thing to take care of a teenager, have a job, pay the rent, pay the car payment, and pay the debt. I lived from paycheck to paycheck."

Not everyone experiences the kinds of severe chronic stresses Alvarez describes. But most women today are coping with a lot of obligations, with few breaks, and feeling the strain. Alvarez's experience demonstrates the importance of finding ways to diffuse stress before it threatens your health and your ability to function.

Which of the following is true according to the first two paragraphs?

[A] Women are biologically more vulnerable to stress.

[B] Women are still suffering much stress caused by men.

[C] Women are more experienced than men in coping with stress.

[D] Men and women show different inclinations when faced with stress.

题型识别：主题题

题干定位：需找原文主题句和主体词。文中第一句就引出了文章主题：女性更容易受到压力的负面影响，之后各段就展开讨论。主体词在文中就是两个：women和stress。

思路解析：对于主题题而言，通常主体词或者主体词的替换词是应该出现在选项中的，并且要注意选项范围的大小，太小流于细节，太大就会超出文章讨论的范围，此题中women和stress为主体词，应该在正确答案中出现。

选项分析：包含有这两个主体词的选项为D。C只是论证过程中的细节;A没有谈及女性且没有结论;B是一个干扰选项，范围过大，这篇文章只在说女性没有谈及男性的具体情况，所以还谈不上性别上的不同。

很多人不知道考研英语阅读理解的文体到底是什么，可以明确的是，是议论文，哪怕是科普性的文章也是侧重对文中观点进行考查。在阅读的标准化试题中，我们都可以把阅读分为三个部分：原文、题干和选项。原文是解题的依据，题干是解题的路标，选项是解题的关键。
