    subways

    The Tokyo Metro and Toei Lines
    		Features: The Tokyo Metro and Toei lines that make up of Tokyo’s huge subway system carry almost 8 million people each day, making it the busiest system in the world. The system is famous for its oshiya- literally, “pusher”- who push passengers into crowded subway cars so the doors can close. And you think your ride is hell.
    The Moscow Metro
    		Features: The Moscow Metro has some of the most beautiful stations in the world. The best of them were built during the Stalinist era and feature chandeliers(枝行吊灯)，marble moldings and elaborate murals(精美壁画). With more than 7 million riders a day , keeping all that marble clean has got to be a burden.
    The Hong Kong MTR
    		Features: The Hong Kong MTR has the distinction of being one of the few subway systems in the world that actually turns a profit. It’s privately owned and uses real estate development along its tracks to increase income and ridership. It also introduced “Octopus cards” that allow people to not only pay their fares electronically, but buy stuff at convenience stores ,supermarkets, restaurants and even parking meters. It’s estimated that 95% of all adults in Hong Kong own an Octopus card.
    Shanghai Metro
    		Features: Shanghai is the third city in China to build a metro system, and it has become the country’s largest in the 12 years since it opened. Shanghai Metro has 142 miles of track and plans to add another 180 miles within five years. By that point, it would be three times larger than Chicago “L”. The system carries about 2.18 million people a day.
    The London Metro
    		Features: Londoners call their subway the Underground, even though 55 percent of it lies above ground. No matter when you’ve got the oldest mass-transit system in the world, you can call it anything you like. Trains started in 1863 and they’ve been running ever since. Some 3 million people ride each day, every one of them remembering to “Mind the gap”

    Depressed people can be very difficult to be around，and yet they need more than the usual amount of support and understanding from their friends and family.
    The anger and lack of concern that a depressed person may have for people close to him or her can be very disturbing to someone who's trying to help.At such times，the sincerity of a friend or a family member is questioned when the depressed person doesn't feel worthy of someone's friendship.Withdrawal from others can make it nearly impossible to encourage a depressed person to enter into activities that may help pull him or her out of the depression.
    It is frequently difficult for a depressed person to carry on a conversation.Attempts to help may be met with defensiveness and verbal attacks.While being supportive and understanding，the friend of a family member must be careful not to do too many things for the depressed person.There is a very thin line between being supportive and being overly protective.Too much“doing for” can be a disservice(帮倒忙)．
    You can best help a friend or relative who is depressed by considering the following points：
    ◆Do not moralize.Don't pressure him or her to “put on a happy face，” or to “snap out of it.” Often the person will feel even worse after hearing such words.
    ◆When you are alone with your depressed friend，you might say something like，“I've noticed lately that you seem down.I care about you and would like to listen to what you're thinking about.” Then be a good listener.
    ◆Don't say，“I know exactly how you feel.” You probably don't.But if you've had similar experiences，sharing those may help.Say things like，“This happened to me.It might help you.” Or “I know some of what you must be feeling.”
    ◆Urge him or her to get professional help if necessary.Offer to accompany your friend on the first visit if it will be easier for the person.
    【小题1】．The above passage is mainly intended for ________.

    A．a doctor who works with a depressed person
    B．a depressed person
    C．one who lives with a depressed person
    D．an expert who gives advice to a depressed person
    【小题2】Too much “doing for” can ________.
    A．cause more severe depression
    B．give the depressed person courage
    C．result in defensiveness from the depressed person
    D．be of no help to the depressed person
    【小题3】What are you advised to say to a depressed person?
    A．Try to look happy and you'll be better.
    B．I know exactly how you feel.
    C．I had a similar experience.And it might help you.
    D．Cheer up and get rid of your depression.
    【小题4】We can infer from the second paragraph that a depressed person ________.
    A．is willing to appreciate the sincerity of a friend or a family member
    B．has a sense of pride of his own
    C．may do something unreasonable to your friendship
    D．is likely to doubt the purpose of a friend or family member
