问题     Researchers at the University of Maryland’s School of Nursing found that 55 percent of the 2, 103 female nurses they surveyed were obese(肥胖的), citing job stress and the effect on sleep of long , irregular work hours as the cause.
    The study, which measured obesity using estimates of body mass index(体质指数), found that nursing schedules affected not only the health of the nurses but the quality of patient care .
    "Health care professionals are often involved in providing advice or care to patients that relates to things that aren’t totally under control in their own lives. It’s not uniform for health care professionals to eat well or avoid tobacco," said Dr. David Katz, the director of the Yale University Prevention Research Center.
    Keith-Thomas Ayoob, associate professor at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, said nurses are just as susceptible to health problems as the rest of society.
    "Before we were health professionals, we were real people. Just because we became health professionals doesn’t mean we stopped being members of regular society with all the problems that go along with it. It illustrates that knowledge alone isn’t always enough to produce behavioral changes," said Ayoob.
    The same is true with smoking, Ayoob said.
    "We all know smoking is bad. It doesn’t matter if you’re a doctor or a nurse or a plumber. You might assume that your interest in health would be higher if you were a health professional, but a lot of doctors and nurses smoke," said Ayoob.
    " Nurses need to understand the importance of taking care of themselves before patients or their families," Ayoob said.
    To combat the high obesity rate among nurses, Kihye Han, the author of the study, proposed more education on good sleep habits, and better strategies for adapting work schedules. She also called for napping at work to relieve sleep deprivation(睡眠不足), reduce fatigue and increase energy.
One of the causes of the high obesity rate among nurses is______.
选项 A、heavy smoking
B、nursing schedules
C、less education
D、unhealthy food
答案B
解析 细节题。由文章首段可知导致护士的obesity rate(肥胖率)很高的原因主要是两个：“job stress”(工作压力)和the effect on sleep of long，irregular work hours(不规律、长时间的工作对睡眠造成的影响)，因此选项B“nursing schedules(护理工作安排)符合题意，为正确答案。而“nursing schedules”在第二段亦有复现，说它影响到了护士的健康，这里的健康显然指的是上段说到的肥胖现象。
