问题     What if you were having a heart attack, but no one believed you? A new study of 515 female heart-attack survivors (aged 29 to 97) reveals that this happens all too often.
    In the study, 95% said they knew something was seriously wrong a month or more before their heart attack, but none of their doctors had even told them that they had heart disease. And when their heart attack happened, fewer than 30% had chest pain or discomfort, the classic warning signs that most emergency room physicians and nurses look for.
    One study volunteer in her mid-30s had a heart attack while driving her children to school. "She had repeatedly sought help for early warning symptoms," says study author Jean McSweeney of the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences. Despite abnormal cardiac stress test results, she got no treatment. Two weeks later, she nearly died.
    Here are the signs that a heart attack may be weeks away: extreme fatigue, disturbed sleep, shortness of breath, and/or anxiety. "If a woman has risk factors for a heart attack and suddenly has unusual symptoms, she needs to tell the doctor that they’re interfering with her everyday activities," McSweeney says. "Be sure of it."
选项 A、no one believes women’s study
B、few people believe women’s warning signs
C、women’s heart attack is often ignored
D、women always realized their dangers
答案 C
解析 答案在文章的第一句和第二段的这一句：In the study, 95% said they knew something was seriously wrong a month or more before their heart attack, but none of their doctors had even told them that they had heart disease．有95%的妇女心脏病发作以前一两个月就知道自己的病，但没有一个医生告诉说她们有心脏病。因此，她们的病常常被忽略了。注意：选项A“没人相信妇女的研究”、选项B“很少有人相信妇女的预兆”、选项D“妇女总是意识到危险”都与原意不符。
