35、messages can be a pain in the neck. The repetitive action of working your fingers across the keyboard of your cell phone can cause some of the same chronic (慢性的) pain problems previously limited to those whod spent a lifetime typing.The possible connection is particularly worrying considering how mu
36、ch teens and young adults and increasingly those in professional settings are texting nowadays, said Judith Gold, who carried out one of the first studies on the potential connection.Text messaging is a fairly new technology, Gold says, so this is a new area of research for those who study ergonomic
37、s (人类工程学). But “considering the similarities in body position, findings from research on overuse injuries from computers could be applicable” to texting.“The way the body is positioned for texting fixed shoulders and back with rapidly moving fingers is similar to the position for typing on a compute
38、r,” Gold explained. Previous research has found pain in the elbow connected with too much thumb texting. To look for a broader link between texting and chronic pain, Gold and her colleagues sent a questionnaire to 138 college students, asking them to report the number of text messages they sent per
39、day (in four categories: 0, 1-10, 11-20, 21+ messages) and to point out any discomfort they felt on a body map.The research showed an association between the number of text messages sent per day and shoulder discomfort.

40、oesnt know why that would be.“What weve seen so far is very similar to what we see with office workers whove spent most of their time at a computer,” Gold said. However, Golds study did not take account of the amount of time the people surveyed also spent typing on computers, which could be affectin

The passage mainly tells us _.A. what ergonomics isB. texting too much causes a pain in the neckC. whether texting is beneficial or notD. the connection between texting and typing46.

43、passage that _.A. the study was the first one carried out by GoldB. one positions oneself differently from computer-users when textingC. the amount of computer-use time was calculated in the surveyD. the result of the survey was not 100% convincingDYou know how wonderful you are, and you know that o
44、thers know how wonderful you are, but what do you do when admiration crosses over the line into jealousy? For most teens there will come a day when you realize that one of your friends is jealous and that this jealousy is hurting your friendship. When this happens it can seem like there is nothing t
45、hat you can do, but the good news is that there is. Dont let jealousy spoil your relationships. Handle it head-on and you might be back to normal much sooner than you think.It can be hard to walk up to a friend and ask them what the problem is, but if you want to save your friendship youll have to d

Dont approach them and ask why they are jealous of you (unless of course you want to appear totally conceited(自负的), just take some time alone with them and let them know that youve been feeling like theres been something coming between you. If they refuse to respond, then use the opport
47、unity to explain how you have been feeling. Chances are that something you say will strike a nerve and your friend will open up as well.When you figure out what is annoying your friend, ask him or her what (s)he thinks would make the situation better. If, for example, (s)he says that (s)he feels lik
48、e (s)he doesnt get to spend any time with you because of your being off with your new friends from the swim team then maybe you could invite her along the next time or block off one day a week for just the two of you. Remember, though, that whatever solution you decide on should be a compromise（妥协）.
49、 Dont limit your own talents or opportunities simply because your friend is unhappy. Try instead to include him or her in your new life and see how that works out.Even the best of friendships can be tinged(发出叮叮声) by jealousy. This destructive emotion is rarely productive and can turn best friends in
50、to worst enemies. Before taking extreme action, chat with your jealous friend to see if the two of you can work out a compromise. If you cant, be prepared to know exactly how far you will go to keep your friend and how far you wont.47. According to the author, the jealousy emotion is_.A. normal B. p
