A new research 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 (早戀) 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 “l(fā)oss of self”. According to the study, even though boys would say “l(fā)ose themselves in a romantic relationship”, this “l(fā)oss 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 Marian 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.Which of the following is more likely to have depression?

A. Young people who have a strong sense of selfishness.

B. Young boys whose parents watch for their behavior.

C. Young girls who always hide their feelings and opinions.

D. Careless parents whose children are deep in love.

2.What can be inferred from the passage?

A. Lacking love can lead young people to grow up more quickly.

B. The older a woman is,the less likely she seems to lose herself in romance.

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. Disinterested.

C. Scared.

D. Disapproving.

4.What’s the main idea of the passage?

A. Parents should forbid their children’s love.

B. Puppy love may bring young people depression.

C. Romance is a two ? edged sword for adults.

D. Romance is good for young people.

閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中,選出最佳選項。

I am a vegetarian(素食主義者).Many people are quick to think of vegetarianism as strange behavior.I treasure our Earth, and since we only have one, we should protect it and the wildlife that lives on it.But that’s only one of the reasons to be a vegetarian.

Vegetarians may live longer, healthier lives.There is a connection between red meat consumption and various diseases.From an economic standpoint, it requires less land, money and energy to produce foods for a vegetarian diet.While there are many benefits to being a vegetarian, only a handful of those who attempt to adopt this lifestyle succeed.

The most important quality required to be a vegetarian is firmness since surrounded by the temptation of meat, we tend to give up vegetarianism easily.Creativity is almost as important as commitment.It’s easy to tire of eating nothing but salad. But with a little creativity and some soy products, almost any meal can become vegetarian-friendly.

Not everyone wants to be vegetarian.Accepting this is part of being a vegetarian with style.Forcing your beliefs on others is disrespectful.Stylish vegetarians should also be able to turn down a meaty dish politely without annoying their hosts.

Being a successful vegetarian has been easy for me, but it may not be so for others.a(chǎn) common mistake is quitting before your body has adjusted to the change.It can be difficult to keep the lifestyle in the beginning because of temptation.However, it fades over time.Another common mistake is quitting because you’ve been misinformed about the nutritional wisdom of being a vegetarian.That’s why it is vital to be educateD. Countless people will tell you that it’s impossible to obtain the nutrients and protein(蛋白質(zhì))your body requires without meat, but they are incorrect.People actually need only 44-55 grams of protein a day, and that is easily found in a vegetarian diet.Many meat eaters are consuming three times that amount, which is not beneficial.It leads to diseases.Vegetables can also supply all the vitamins, minerals and nutrients your body needs.However, if you’re still not convinced, you can take a multi-vitamin.

1.According to the passage, being a vegetarian helps ______.

A. protect the wildlife

B. free people from diseases

C. rid people from strange behaviors

D. develop a better economy

2.What’s the underlined word temptation in Paragraph 3 closest in meaning to?

C. Great consumption D. Significant importance

3.Stylish vegetarians do not ______.

A. force others to be vegetarians

B. respect other people’s beliefs

C. turn down hosts gracefully

D. refuse an offer of meat

4.Which of the following is NOT true?

A. Many people give up before their bodies can adjust to the transition.

B. Many people quit because they’re poorly educated about nutrition.

C. Consuming 150 grams protein a day can be harmful.

D. Vegetarians need multi-vitamins to keep healthy.

5.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?

A. Reasons why the author became a vegetarian.

科目:高中英語 來源:2015-2016學(xué)年江西余江一中高二上期中英語試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

IMAGINE that your parents have bought you the most advanced robot. He looks like a real person. He talks to you and plays with you. He can even think for himself and figure out what you need.

It may feel as if you have a considerate new brother who keeps you company all the time. But come to think of it, can you really trust him?

Ever since the first robot was created decades ago, scientists have kept thinking about the task of making robots more like humans. However, as they have gotten closer to that goal, doubts have grown. According to the BBC, Japanese robot designer Masahiro Mori argues that the more lifelike robots become, the more humans feel a connection to them. But once they become too similar to humans, people begin to feel uncomfortable.

This theory is what led to the creation of a brand new robot in Switzerland earlier this month. Roboy, as the new machine is called, has various human-like abilities such as hand-shaking and bicycle-riding, but instead of a skin-like covering, Roboy is wrapped in shiny white armor (盔甲) that clearly shows its robot status.

“As long as people can clearly see that the robot is a machine, even if they project their feelings into it, then they feel comfortable,” Rolf Pfeifer, the creator of Roboy from the University of Zurich, Switzerland, told the BBC.

But the problem that people have with robots is not just with the way they look. It also has to do with the roles that they play in our lives.

A survey last year of European Union countries showed that 88 percent of those interviewed agreed that robots are “necessary as they can do jobs that are too hard or dangerous for people”, such as space exploration and war fighting. But when it comes to taking care of children, 60 percent said that robots should not be allowed to participate, because as robots become more advanced and complicated, parents may tend to hand over too much responsibility to them.

No matter what, robots will soon enter our homes, Pfeifer said. What is not yet clear is whether they will act more like servants who work for us or companions who live with us.

1.What is the purpose of the text?

A. To introduce the newly-invented robot, Roboy.

B. To discuss problems related to designing robots.

C. To explore the roles robots will play in our future lives.

D. To argue what kinds of robots appeal to people more.

2.Why did Pfeifer make Roboy look like a robot?

A. To better protect it.

B.To make it look cool and modern.

C. To make it clearly different from a human.

D. To keep its price down.

3.Which best describes the author’s tone in the article?

A. Objective(客觀的).B. Critical(批評的).

C. Admiring.D. Anxious.

4.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

A. The brand new robot in Switzerland can do everything human beings can.

B. Scientists have long been dreaming of creating human-like robots.

C. Robots in the future will serve as human beings’ good friends.

D. People won’t be comfortable with robots like a machine in the house.

It is important for countries to develop. Sometimes development can do more harm than good for a country. Therefore, this development needs to be different from past development, which polluted the environment and wasted natural resources. One possible solution to this problem now being discussed is sustainable development. It focuses on preserving the environment and natural resources. It is all about creating better health care, education, housing and improved standard of living for everyone. This is a simple idea, but one that is hard to put into practice. However, it is something that we must do, because without sustainable development our future and the lives of our children and our grandchildren will be in danger.

Nearly everything we do in our modern lives requires the use of the Earth’s natural resources. These natural resources provide the energy for many important things. The list is almost endless. For all these things, we mostly depend on fuels such as coal, gas and oil to produce energy. We are now consuming these fuels at a much higher rate than they are being produced. On top of this, burning these fuels produces carbon dioxide, which is harmful to the environment. This is why many people are pushing for the use of alternative energy sources.

Alternative energy sources can be used without running out. Some examples of the alternatives are solar energy, wind energy and hydroelectricity. As people are becoming more aware of the need to protect the environment, these types of energy are becoming more and more popular.

In many parts of the world, tentative(試驗性的) steps are being taken to introduce these forms of alternative energy. For example, some people in Nigeria are training to use solar power, and in Costa Rica, people are now using hydroelectricity to provide power for their small villages. The introduction of programmes like these will hopefully help end the systematic destruction of the environment and see alternative energy promoted around the world. This will mean good things for our future, our children’s future and our grandchildren’s future.

1.We know from the passage that sustainable development _________.

A. means to develop slowly

B. can bring little good to the people

C. has ended the environmental destruction

D. is an idea being discussed

2.It is important to preserve the natural resources because they _________.

A. consume the energy for important things

B. are running out

C. provide the energy for people to use

D. are being produced at a high rate

3. Hydroelectricity means ___________.

A. using the sun to provide electricity

B. using wind power to produce electricity

C. using water power to produce electricity

D. using water to protect the environment

4. What is the author’s attitude toward sustainable development?

A. Critical. B. Positive.

C. Tolerant. D. Doubtful.
