A new study of 8,000 young people in the Journal of Health and Social Behavior shows that although love can make adults live healthily and happily, it is a bad thing for young people. Puppy love(早恋)may bring stress for young people and can lead to depression.The study shows that girls become more depressed than boys, and younger girls are the worst of all.
The possible reason for the connection between love and higher risk of depression for girls is “loss of self”. According to the study，even though boys would say “lose themselves in a romantic relationship”, this “loss of self” is much more likely to lead to depression when it happens to girls. Young girls who have romantic relationships usually like hiding their feelings and opinions. They won’t tell that to their parents.
Dr Marianm Kaufman，an expert on young people problems, says 15% to 20% young people will have depression during their growing. Trying romance often causes the depression. She advises kids not to jump into romance too early. During growing up, it is important for young people to build b friendships and a b sense of self. She also suggests the parents should encourage their kids to keep close to their friends, attend more interesting school activities and spend enough time with family.
Parents should watch for signs of depression—eating or mood changes—and if they see signs from their daughters or sons, they need to give help. The good news is that the connection between romance and depression seems to become weak with age. Love will always make us feel young, but only maturity(成熟)gives us a chance to avoid its bad side effects.
1.Which of the following is more likely to have depression?
A. Young people who have a strong sense of selfishness.
B. Young girls who always hide their feelings and opinions.
C. Young boys whose parents watch for their behavior
D. Careless parents whose children are deep in love.
2.What can be inferred from the passage?
A. The older a woman is, the less likely she seems to lose herself in romance.
B. Lacking love can lead young people to grow up more quickly.
C. Early love makes young people keep close to their friends and parents.
D. Parents should help their children to be aware of the signs of depression.
3.What’s the author’s attitude towards puppy love?
A. Confused B. Scared
C. Disinterested D. Disapproving
4.What’s the main idea of the passage?
A. Puppy love may bring young people depression
B. Parents should forbid their children’s love
C. Romance is a two-edged sword for adults
D. Romance is good for young people

Andrew Jackson has been sitting pretty on the $20 bill for 87 years.Is it time to bring some new blood to the banknote?
The non-profit organization called Women on 20s is campaigning to put a woman's face on American money. Barbara Ortiz Howard,the company's founder,would like to see a woman on the $20 bill by 2020.That year marks the 100-year anniversary of the 19th Amendment to the United States Constitution,which gave women the right to vote.
Howard got the idea when she realized that her daughter had no everyday reminders of famous women in history.She asked her friend Susan Ades Stone,a journalist,to join her cause."Part of the aim is to educate as many people as possible about as many women as possible,"Ades says."We want to see how many people we can reach."
American money values the successes of former presidents and founding fathers.Currently,there are only two women on money: Susan B.Anthony is the face of the rare dollar coin,and Sacagawea can be seen on the gold dollar coin.There are no women on paper bills.
With help from writers and historians,Howard and Stone came up with a voting list featuring 15 important women.Ades says there is a standard for choosing candidates.They look at the women's contributions to our world, and at what challenges they faced.
More than 72,000 people have voted so far in the poll.Ades says the competition has narrowed to a "very close race",but won't say who's in the lead.After two rounds of voting,Women on 20s will send their campaign to the White House for consideration.The final decision is up to the Treasury Secretary,Jack Lew.Lew is unlikely to make a change without the president's approval.But last year,when a little girl asked the president why there aren't any women on US currency,he said that adding a woman is a "pretty good idea".
1.When did American women begin to enjoy voting rights?
A. In the 1920s. B. In the 19th century.
C. Fewer than 20 years ago. D. More than 200 years ago.
2.We can know from the text that_______.
A. Howard and Stone decided the voting list on their own
B. Howard's idea has something to do with her daughter
C. so far no American women have appeared on coins
D. former presidents rule American money
3.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Ades has announced the victor of the voting.
B. It's impossible for Jack Lew to make a change.
C. The president will probably support such a change.
D. The final decision is due to be made by the president.
4.What can be the best title of the text?
A. The future faces of money
B. Different faces chosen on money
C. Constant changes in money faces
D. A campaign for women's faces on money

The Indian government may use 3D paintings as virtual speed breakers（减速带） on major highways and roads, in order to check speeding and careless driving, and finally make its deadly roads a little safer. "We are trying out 3D paintings used as virtual speed breakers to avoid unnecessary requirements of speed breakers," India's transport minister Nitin Gadkari wrote.
The optical illusions(视觉错觉) are supposed to encourage drivers to slow down automatically. Earlier, India had ordered the removal of all speed breakers from highways, which are considered to be a safety hazard for high-speed vehicles. India has the highest number of road accident deaths in the world. According to the World Health Organisation, over 200,000 people are killed by road accidents.
The use of optical illusions as speed breakers was first pioneered in the American city of Philadelphia in 2008, as part of a campaign against speeding motorists. The technique has also been tried out in China to create floating 3D crossings. In India, cities such as Ahmedabad and Chennai have already experimented with 3D zebra crossings in the last one year. In Ahmedabad for instance, a mother and her daughter, both artists, have painted 3D crosswalks in the first few months of 2016. The artists say their motto is "to increase the attention of drivers", and that the concept has been successfully tested in accident-prone zones on a highway.
However, critics argue that once drivers know that these speed breakers are visual illusions, they may ignore them. Others also point out that India's decision does not consider the safety of a large number of pedestrians. In the end, the new policy may be just one step towards improving road safety.
1.Why are 3D paintings used on main highways and roads?
A. To make the surroundings more beautiful.
B. To attract the attention of tourists.
C. To reduce the rate of traffic accidents.
D. To show the advanced technology.
2.Which of the following words is closest to the meaning of “hazard” in paragraph 2?
A. Reminder B. Threat
C. Regulation D. Theory
3.What can we learn from Paragraph 3 and 4?
A. Philadelphia, the U.S.A is th second place to use virtual speed breakers in the world.
B. The idea tested in Ahmedabad recently has been a failure.
C. The new policy of 3D zebra crossings must be carried out smoothly.
D. The use of optical illusions as speed breakers is controversial in India.
4.What do we know about 3D zebra crossings from the passage?
A. They can vastly lower the death rate in India.
B. They have been widely used in India so far.
C. They are designed to increase drivers’ attention.
D. They are welcomed by both drivers and pedestrians.

The “Take In” restaurant in Helsinki, Finland, is currently in the news for its ingenious(有独创性)service. Instead of cooking the meals in its own kitchen—which doesn’t exist—it allows customers to order various dishes from a selection of 20 other restaurants in the city.
Sponsored by American Express and Wolt, a popular food delivery app, Take In is a pop-up(突然出现的) restaurant that opened at the beginning of November 2016, and will run through May 2, this year.
As you’ve probably already guessed, the name “Take In” is a clever play on words like take-out. The whole point of ordering take-out is to avoid going to a restaurant, and if you’re going to dress up to go out, you might as well go straight to your favorite restaurant instead of ordering food from it somewhere else. But here’s the idea behind it—when you go out with a group of friends and you can’t decide where to go for dinner, because everyone wants to order something else, Take In is the perfect solution.
“We want to be a living room in the city,” a Wolt spokesperson told Monocle magazine. “We all know what it’s like you’re about to go out for dinner with a big group of friends. Everyone wants to order what they like. What are you going to do? Well, the answer in Helsinki right now is you come to Take In because you can do all of those things in the same place.”
Customers are more than welcome to stick to the selection of drinks available at the bar. But if they want to try the “take in” experience, all they have to do is use the Wolt app, just as they would from the comfort of their own homes. Once they order and pay for their meals, all they have to do is wait for someone to deliver it to the pop-up restaurant.
1.What does the text mainly tell about?
A. American Express and Wolt.
B. The “Take In” restaurant in Helsinki.
C. The way to order "take-out".
D. A world-wide food 
service.
2.Why is the “Take In” restaurant popular with people?
A. It can satisfy the taste of different people.
B. People can pay less money.
C. People can get together with best friends.
D. It can cook different meals.
3.What do we know about the “Take In” restaurant?
A. It has been run for more than two years.
B. It will replace “Take out” restaurants soon.
C. You should use the Wolt app.
D. You can enjoy the service in your own living-room.

Some people are so rude!
Who sends an e-mail or a text message that just says “Thank you”? Who leaves a voice mail message rather than texts you? Who asks for a fact easily found on Google? Don’t these people realize that they’re wasting your time?
Maybe I’m the rude one for not appreciating life’s little politeness. But many social agreed standards just don’t make sense to people drowning in digital communication.
In texts, you don’t have to declare who you are or even say hello; E-mail, too, is slower than a text; Voice mail is a now impolite way of trying to connect.
My father learned this lesson after leaving me a dozen voice mail messages, none of which I listened to. Exasperated, he called my sister to express his dissatisfaction that I never returned his phone calls. “Why are you leaving him voice mails?” my sister asked. “Just text him.”
In the age of the smartphone, there is no reason to ask once-acceptable questions about: the weather forecast, a business’s phone number, or directions to a house, a restaurant, which can be easily found on Google Maps. But people still ask these things. And when you answer, they respond with a thank-you e-mail.
How to handle these differing standards? Easy: Consider your audience. Some people, especially older ones, appreciate a thank-you message. Others, like me, want no reply.
The anthropologist (人类学家) Margaret Mead once said that in traditional societies, the young learn from the old. But in modem societies, the old can also learn from the young. Here’s hoping that politeness never goes out of fashion but that time-wasting forms of communication do.
1.What does the underlined word “exasperated” mean in the fifth paragraph?
A. Worried. B. Annoyed.
C. Surprised. D. Tired.
2.Why didn’t the writer reply to his father?
A. He didn’t want to talk with his father.
B. He liked text messages better.
C. He didn’t receive any voice mail messages.
D. He enjoyed checking his voice mails.
3.Which of the following does the writer agree to?
A. Dealing with voice mail should vary with each individual.
B. Declaring who they are or saying hello in texts is necessary
C. People needn’t learn from one another in traditional societies.
D. People needn’t turn to Google for help when in trouble.
4.What’s the best title of this passage?
A. Nowadays: what means should we use in communication
B. Nowadays: do you like leaving others a voice message
C. Nowadays: what should we do with text messages
D. Nowadays: do you need a thank-you message
