Being mistreated at work can make people take out their negative emotions on loved ones at home. But a new study suggests that getting more exercise and sleep may help people better cope with them by leaving them at work, where they belong.

Previous research shows that employees who are looked down on or insulted by colleagues are likely to express their frustrations and behave angrily toward people outside of work, says study co-author Shannon Taylor, a management professor at the University of Central Florida’s College of Business.

The new study backs up this idea, but offers a bit of good news as well: Employees who averaged more than 10, 500 steps a day or burned at least 2, 100 calories were less likely to mistreat their families than those who averaged fewer steps or burned fewer calories.

The findings also revealed that when employees felt they had a bad night’s sleep because of work issues, they were more likely to be angry at home. “When you’re tired, you are either less able or less motivated to regulate yourself.” says co-author Larissa Barber, a professor of psychology at Northern Illinois University.

Physical activity seems to counterbalance poor sleep, Barber says, because it promotes healthy brain functions needed to properly regulate emotions and behaviors. “This study suggests that high amounts of exercise can be at least one way to improve the situations brought by sleep troubles that lead to negative behaviors at home, ” she says.

Barber acknowledges that finding time to work out and get a full night’s sleep can be difficult when work pressure is mounting, and that often, job stress can be directly connected to sleep quality. However, she says, making the effort to burn some extra calories and let go of some stress can be worth it. It’s not only good for you, says Taylor, but it can benefit your loved people.

1.What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 1 refer to?

A. Loved people at home.　　 B. Negative emotions.

C. Different work pressures.　　 D. More exercise and sleep.

2.Who will most probably behave angrily to family members?

B. A person who is always treated badly by coworkers.

C. A person who often goes to the gym to work out.

D. A person who often argues with colleagues.

3.The underlined word “counterbalance” in Paragraph 5 probably means　　　　　　 .

A. make use of　　 B. take control of

C. keep up with　　 D. make up for

4.What can we learn from the text?

A. The amount of calories employees burn affects the frequency of losing temper.

B. How to burn more calories has become a major issue for workers.

C. Enough exercise can replace good sleep in dealing with negative behaviors.

D. Work pressure makes no difference in sleep quality.

Tenzing left his home when he was ten to work and help his mother, who was looking after their 2-acre ancestral farm after his father’s death. He did temporary jobs for the first few years and then joined a Malaysian construction firm, where he learnt to drive, repair machines, work on the Internet and even speak English fluently.

“In those 13 years, I learnt everything—driving, mechanic work, and how to set up a small factory. This made me gain much confidence to do almost all jobs,” says Tenzing.

However, as his mother was getting older, on December 12, 2006, Tenzing returned to his hometown in Assam. Having visited several farms, he came to know that tea could be easily exported and many tea companies were buying tea; so he also decided to grow tea on his farm. But as his family had never grown tea, he had no idea how to do it.

Being a green hand in this field, Tenzing went to meet with many tea experts and followed their instructions. But whenever he sprayed pesticide (农药)on his farm, he’d get a headache and feel indisposed. So he started looking for alternatives. Tenzing did his research online and finally in 2007, he connected with people from a Canadian non-governmental organization and invited them to his farm, where they trained him. Thus, Tenzing started growing tea organically.

Today Tenzing has 25 acres of land, of which 7.5 acres is used for tea planting, and he grows almost all types of fruits and vegetables. His success inspired many, and farmers from other parts of the country also started coming to his farm to learn organic farming. He has trained about 30,000 farmers so far. Every year almost 100 tourists visit his farm from various parts of the world like the UK, Australia, Germany, etc.

1.What can we know about Tenzing?

A. He was mistreated at a young age.　　 B. He lived a happy childhood.

C. He had great learning ability.　　 D. He received much formal education.

2.Why did Tenzing want to grow tea on his farm?

A. His mother was getting older.　　 B. Tea sold very well at that time.

C. His land was best for tea growth.　　 D. He was tired of temporary jobs.

3.What does the underlined word “indisposed” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?

A. Unfair.　　 B. Motivated

C. Touched.　　 D. Uncomfortable.

4.What can be inferred about Tenzing’s farm according to the last paragraph?

A. It has been the biggest one around.

B. It is famous nationally and globally.

C. It is made use of mostly to grow tea.

D. It has become a hot tourist attraction.
