【题目】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 strong friendships and a strong 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 gives us a chance to avoid its bad side effects.
【1】What’s the main idea of the passage?
A. Romance is a two-edged sword for adults.
B. Puppy love may bring young people depression.

D. Romance is good for young people.

A. Careless parents whose children are deep in love.
B. Young people who have a strong sense of selfishness.
C. Young boys whose parents watch for their behavior.
D. Young girls who always hide their feelings and opinions.
【3】What can be inferred from the passage?
A. Lacking love can lead young people to grow up more quickly.
B. Early love makes young people keep close to their friends and parents.
C. The older a woman is, the less likely she seems to lose herself in romance.
D. Parents should help their children to be aware of the signs of depression.

【题目】 Though sometimes we may lose our ability to do something we love, passions don’t have to end. Suzelle Poole of Dallas, Texas is living proof of that. The 79-year-old has been dancing for more than seven decades.
Suzelle started ballet when she was just 7 years old, and her devotion only grew stronger as her talent increased in the following years. In fact, Suzelle was so talented that she went to perform all around the world! Like most professional ballerinas (芭蕾舞女),Suzelle expected a short-lived career. “When I was about 26,1 knew I only had a few years left,”she said. It’s simply the nature of the art form because the movements are so hard on people’s bodies. But Suzelle’s body didn’t wear out at 26 — or even 56! At one point, she broke her arm but she was dancing again by the following week.
Nowadays she focuses on teaching the next generation of ballerinas at the Royale Ballet Dance Academy, where she and her students regularly perform for senior residents in assisted living facilities.
Suzelle has become such an inspiration that CBS News reporter Steve Hartman and his 5-year-old daughter Meryl recently traveled to Dallas to interview her. Steve’s little girl couldn’t wait to meet and dance with the woman she wants to become.
During the interview, Suzelle shared a piece of wisdom: “Ballet helps everything,” she said. “If you’re not feeling very well, you go to a ballet class, and you feel better after.” Meryl nodded knowingly. She also added, “Ballet could always cheer me up whenever I feel depressed.”
It’s no wonder Suzelle has no plans to hang up her pointed shoes. Why would she give up something that brings her so much joy?
【1】Why did Suzelle at her 26 think her career would end soon?
A.The nature of the body didn’t allow lasting performance.
B.The audience didn’t like her performance.
C.She injured her arm in a training course.
D.She had to look after her family.
【2】Why did Steve Hartman take his daughter Meryl to meet Suzelle?
A.To help Meryl with her problems.
B.To make Meryl experience a reporter’s work.
C.To inspire Meryl to pursue her dancing dream.
D.To realise Meryl’s dream of dancing with famous people.
【3】In Suzelle’s opinion, ballet dance ___________.
A.benefits people’s mental health
B.should be taught at primary school
C.is less attractive to the young
D.raises people’s interest in art
【4】What does the underlined part in the last paragraph probably mean?
A.Suzelle will go to find other joy of life.
B.Suzelle will carry on her ballet career.
C.Suzelle will put away her ballet shoes.
D.Suzelle will devote herself to art teaching.

When we talk about intelligence, we do not mean the ability to get a good score on a certain kind of test, or even the ability to do well in school. 【1】 The true test of intelligence is not how much we know how to do,but how we behave when we don’t know what to do.
The intelligent person, young or old, meeting a new situation or problem, opens himself up to it. He tries to take in with mind and senses everything he can about it. He thinks about it, instead of about himself or what it might cause to happen to him. If he fails to master it, he looks without fear or shame at his mistakes and learns what he can from them. This is intelligence. 【2】 Just as clearly, unintelligence is not what most psychologists seem to suppose, the same thing as intelligence, only less of it. It is an entirely different style of behavior, out of entirely set of attitudes.
Years of watching and comparing bright children with the not-bright,or less bright, have shown that they are very different kinds of people. The bright child is curious about life and reality, eager to get in touch with it, unite himself with it. 【3】 On the other hand, the dull child is far less curious, far less interested in what goes on and what is real. The bright child likes to experiment, to try things out. He lives by the maxim that there is more than one way to skin a cat. 【4】 The dull child is usually afraid to try at all, It takes a great deal of urging to get him to try even once; if that try fails, he is through.
A. Clearly its roots lie in a certain feeling about life.
B. If he can’t do something one way, he’ll try another.
C. He takes it for granted that he is the most intelligent guy in the world.
D. He continues his pursuit until he finally succeeds.
E. By intelligence we mean a style of life, a way of behaving in various situations.
F. There is no wall between himself and life.

【题目】 Laura Sides was a psychology major at the University of Nottingham in 2004. She first noticed signs of her dad’s developing dementia(痴呆) when she moved to Nottingham. She said, "Dad was a doctor, so he knew exactly what had happened to him, but people try to hide it when they are ill. Then, I came home for my 21st birthday and arranged to meet him, but he never showed up as he’d forgotten. That’s when I knew something serious had happened."
So, aged 21, she decided to leave university and look after him herself. She lived close by, popping in every day to make sure he was eating, and that the house was tidy, before heading off to her work.
Besides challenging moments, there was a time when looking after her dad was a pure joy. "We’d wake up, I’d ask what he wanted to do that day, and however ridiculous the adventure is, off we’d go."
Sadly, in 2009, 5 years later, Laura lost her father. Before he died, Laura went to a hospital appointment with him, where doctors mentioned that his form of Alzheimer’s disease was genetic meaning there was a fifty-fifty chance that she had inherited it. For several years Laura agonised over whether to be tested, finally finding out in August 2017 that she has the APP gene, meaning that, like him, she will develop the condition within a decade.
At first, she struggled, feeling as if her life lacked purpose. Then, during a sleepless night in the summer of 2018, she decided at around 2 a.m. to enter the 2019 London Marathon sponsored by the charities Alzheimer’s Society and Alzheimer’s Research UK.
She hoped to start the conversation around early-onset Alzheimer’s disease and to encourage people to talk about it more openly. "I remember when Dad was ill, people wouldn’t know how to react, but I want to be honest and open," she added. "The more information we can get, the less of a taboo(忌讳) we will feel. That said, the support I’ve received so far after going public has been amazing — that’s what is carrying me through."
【1】Laura noticed her father’s dementia when .
A.her father told her his condition in person
B.people nearby informed her of his father’s condition
C.her father forgot his own birthday party
D.her father forgot to attend her 21-year-old birthday party
【2】The underlined word "agonised" in Paragraph 4 probably means .
A.excitedB.struggled
C.shockedD.delighted
【3】Laura started the open talk in the hope of .
A.getting people to talk about Alzheimer’s disease openly
B.earning some money to help treat her Alzheimer’s disease
C.making herself stronger to fight against Alzheimer’s disease
D.raising funds for charities Alzheimer’s Society and Alzheimer’s disease Research UK
【4】Which words can best describe Laura?
A.Caring and positive.B.Careful and honest.
C.Patient and cautious.D.Devoted and modest.
