Life expectancy is the period of time that a person can expect to live. Life expectancy varies greatly between genders and cultures. It used to be that women had a lower life expectancy than men (1 in every 4 women died in childbirth), but now they live an average of four to five years longer than men. Life expectancy has been increasing rapidly over the last centuries. With the advent of such modern miracles as sewers, medicine and a greater understanding of how diseases are spread, our life expectancy has increased by 25 – 30 years. In developing countries like Swaziland, where there is a high HIV/AIDS rate, life expectancy is as low as 32,6 years. In developed countries like Australia, life expectancy rates as high as 81 years. There are an increasing number of factors which can cancel out the disadvantages you have. The one that we are looking at now is how your career can affect your life expectancy. Choosing the wrong career can result in a shorter life! If you want your career to positively influence your life expectancy, you have to be made of money. That’s right. Rich people in wealthy areas of England and France live 10 years longer than the people in poorer areas. Having a successful career has its drawbacks, too if the result of hard work its stress. Stress can lead to a number of psychological disorders such as depression, anxiety, fatigue, tension and aggression. These conditions may result in a lack of concentration and an increase in serious injuries at work. They can also lead to high blood pressure and heart attacks which seriously affect life expectancy. If you are worried that your job might decrease your life expectancy, you probably need to avoid careers on “dangerous jobs” list such as timber cutters, pilots, construction workers, roofer, truck drivers. So if you don’t want to kick the bucket at an early age, choose a career in something other than timber cutting, but above all, remember to relax.

Rent control is the system whereby the local government tells building owners how much they can charge their tenants in rent. In the United States, rent controls date back to at least World War II. In 1943 the federal government imposed rent controls to help solve the problem of housing shortages during wartime. The federal program ended after the war, but in some locations, including New York 4
5. City, controls continued. Under New York's controls, a landlord generally cannot raise rents on apartments as long as the tenants continue to renew their leases. In places such as Santa Monica, California, rent controls are more recent. They were spurred by the inflation of the 1970's, which, combined) with California's rapid population growth, pushed housing prices, as well as rents, to record levels. In 1979 Santa Monica's municipal government ordered landlords to roll back their rents to the levels charged in 1978. Future rents could only go up by two-thirds as much as any increase in the overall price level. In any housing market, rental prices perform three functions: (1) promoting the efficient maintenance of existing housing and stimulating the construction of new housing, (2) allocating existing scarce housing among competing claimants, and (3) rationing use of existing housing by potential renters. One result of rent control is a decrease in the construction of new rental units. Rent controls have artificially depressed the most important long-term determinant of profitability - rents. Consider some examples. In a recent year in Dallas, Texas, with a 16 percent rental vacancy rate but no rent control laws, 11,000 new housing units were built. In the same year, in San Francisco, California, only 2,000 units were built. The major difference? San Francisco has only a 1.6 percent vacancy rate but stringent rent control laws. In New York City, except for government-subsidized construction, the only rental units being built are luxury units, which are exempt from controls. In Santa Monica, California, new apartments are not being constructed. New office rental space and commercial developments are, however. They are exempt from rent controls. Question 55: What does the passage mainly discuss? A. The construction of apartments in the United States. B. Causes and effects of rent control C. The fluctuations of rental prices D. The shortage of affordable housing in the United States. Question 56: The word "They" in paragraph 1 refers to___ A. the tenants B. their leasesC. placesD. rent controls. Question 57: Which of the following was NOT a reason for the introduction of rent controls in Santa Monica, California? A. Rapid population growthB. Inflation C. Economic conditions during wartimeD. Record-high housing prices Question 58: The phrase "roll back" in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to___ A. creditB. measure C. varyD. reduce Question 59: The word "stimulating" in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to___ A. experimenting withB. identifying C. estimatingD. encouraging Question 60: It can be inferred that the purpose of rent control is to___ A. protect tenantsB. promote construction C. increase vacancy ratesD. decrease sales of rental units Question 61: The word "depressed" in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to___ A. saddenedB. createdC. loweredD. defeated Question 62: The information in the last paragraph supports which of the following statements?
