Depression(抑郁癥)is a serious problem today．Depression causes workers to be unproductive，causing companies and countries to lose billions of dollars．One expert says that depression is like cancer because it is “widespread，costly and deadly”．Depression hits one person in five around the world．
Although people have believed depression to be a problem among the rich and educated，studies show that depression is a problem among everyone。Over any six-month period，between five to seven percent of the world's population will be suffering from a serious depression．
suicide(自殺)rates among people suffering from the disease in its extreme，or clinical form were 80 percent higher than in the population at large，and sufferers were four times more likely to have heart attacks. People who suffer from depression often have problems sleeping，getting up on time，and doing work productively．
Depression，which researchers agree has its origin in the genes(基因)，brings loss of confidence and ability to concentrate-making it impossible for employees and managers to work efficiently．
Depression is made more serious in China by Chinese's inability to face it．Many people believe that depressed people are either weak or lazy．  Besides，there is no good treatment，with few specialists available．
“Most patients in China just don't get help，”a Chinese doctor says．“In my hospital．I have to see 30 or 40 patients in a morning，just have time to say “Hello how do you feel？”
In Western countries，people are not afraid to admit that they have depression，but most do not tell it to their boss，because they fear that their boss would fire them．

CHICAGO （Reuters） - Smoking not only can wrinkle （起皺紋） the face and tarn it yellow—it can do the same to the whole body, researchers reported on Monday．
The study, published in the Archives of Dermatology, shows that smoking affects the skin all over the body—even skin protected from the sun．
"We examined non - facial skin that was protected from the sun, and found that the total number of packs of cigarettes smoked per day and the total years a person has smoked were linked with the amount of skin damage a person experienced," Dr．Yolanda Helfrich of the University of Michigan, who led the study, said in a statement．
"In participants older than 65 years, smokers had significantly more fine wrinkling than nonsmokers．Similar findings were seen in participants aged 45 to 65 years," Helfrich "s team added in their report．
The researchers tested 82 people, smokers and nonsmokers, taking pictures of the inner right arms． They ranged, in age from 22 to 91 and half were smokers．Independent judges decided how wrinkled each person' s skin was．
When skin is exposed to sunlight, notably the face, it becomes coarse, wrinkled and discolored with a pale yellow tint, Helfrich ' s team wrote．
Several previous studies have found that cigarette smoking contributes to premature（過早的）skin aging as measured by facial wrinkles, the study said, but little has been done to measure the aging of skin not exposed to light．
The report did not discuss die mechanism involved but previous research has found that cigarette smoke, among other things, causes blood vessels （血管） beneath the skin to constrict （緊縮）, reducing blood supply to the skin．
Smoking can also damage the connective tissue that supports both die skin and the internal organs,．
【小題1】When your skin is exposed to sunlight long, it-becomes all of the following but _____．

A．flexibleB．coarseC．roughD．discolored
【小題2】How wrinkled a person's skin is doesn't relate to _____．
A．the number of cigarettes a person smokes．
B．the kind and characteristics of skin
C．how long a person smokes
D．how long skin is under sunlight
【小題3】From the passage smoking results in skin aging mainly because _____.
A．it will lower blood supply to skin
B．it can make you feel tired
C．it can make skin come off
D．it can make blood run faster
【小題4】The main purpose of the passage is to _____．
A．inform people about the result of the study
B．a(chǎn)dvise people how to protect skin
C．warn people not to smoke again
D．introduce a new way of avoid skin aging

America is growing older. Fifty years ago, only 4 out of every 100 people in the United States were 65 or older. Today, 10 out of every 100 Americans are over 65. The aging of the population will affect （影響） American society in many ways — education, medicine, and business. Quietly, the graying of America has made us a very different society— one in which people have a quite different idea of what kind of behavior（行為）is suitable （合適）at various ages. A person's age no longer tells you anything about his/her social position, marriage or health. There's no longer a particular year in which one goes to school or goes to work or gets married or starts a family. The social clock that kept us on time and told us when to go to school ,get a job, or stop working isn't as strong as it used to be. It doesn't surprise us to hear of a 29-year-old university president or a 35-year-old grandmother, or a 70-year-old man who has become a father for the firs time. Public ideas are changing. Many people say, 'I am much younger than my mother - or my father - was at my age.' No one says ‘Act your age’ anymore. We've stopped looking with surprise at older people who act in youthful ways.

1.It can be learnt from the text that the aging of the population in America_________  .

A.has made people feel younger

B.has changed people's social position

C. has changed people's understanding of age

D. has slowed down the country's social development

2.The underlined word ‘one’ refers to_________.

A. a society        B. America                C. a place                 D. population

A.be active when they are old

B.do the right thing at the right age

C. show respect for their parents young or old

D. take more physical exercise suitable to their age

4.If a 25-year-old man becomes general manager of a big firm, the writer of the text would most probably consider it ______.

A.normal            B.wonderful              C.unbelievable                   D.unreasonable

Cleanse, tone and moisturize: three words that everyone should keep in mind when going through their daily routines. As a society, we decide what are important habits to keep up with, such as taking care of your skin.

It takes a good five minutes every morning and night to properly care for your skin, but most men and women believe that they do not have time in their busy schedule to do so. Having good skin boosts（增加）sef-confidence and improve overall health and attitude.

Cleansing the face is important for women who wear make-up because it clears the face from exposure to free radicals（自由基） in the air. Toning your face is important to balance your skin’s PH level ( which needs to be between 4.5 and 5.5 ) and also to remove the impurities from water, which is full of lead. Finally, moisturizing your face hydrates（增濕）the skin.

In this day and age there are more issues with free radicals that damage your skin than ever before. Smog, UVA/ UVB damage, smoke, alcohol, and more are all negative contributing factors to damaging the aging of your skin.

The global community has advanced the environment into a high percentage of free radical, but we also now have the technology for the best skin care. The issue with skin care is most people feel that you only need to take action if you have a serious skin condition, such as acne(粉刺). But no matter what age and what condition your skin is in, you should actively do something to maintain it.

Most skin care products today are all-natural; many of them advertise being 100 percent vegan（素食）.

Ingredients（成分）that are natural for anti-aging are : DMAE, alpha lapoic acid, antioxidants, collagen booster, SPF and many more. All of these ingredients help prevent aging and sun damage while regenerating new skin cells. Aging appears fastest on your face, neck, and back of the hands and feet, which means you must apply skin care products to all areas. People need to take care of their skin, whether they have a skin condition or not.

If one wants to age gracefully, one must put forth the effort on their skin.

Your House Will Take Care of You In Old Age

Have you ever thought what your life would be like in old age? Everyone talks about the “aging” society with large numbers of elderly people needing home care. Now German researchers have set up a “smart” house, programmed to help the elderly live at home with dignity. Scientists at Germany’s Fraunhofer Institute say the house combines existing technology with future-oriented technology.

For example, the “smart” bathroom has a touch screen mirror that can remind people to take their medicine, wash their hands or brush their teeth. The hardware behind Fraunhofer’s electronic bathroom is not new, and the software runs on a regular personal computer.

When the medicine cabinet is opened, a display in the middle of the mirror tells the person how many pills to take. The mirror is linked to a care provider, who can remotely check whether a patient at home is actually taking medicine and brushing his or her teeth. As many elderly people have arthritic(關(guān)節(jié)炎的) conditions that make it difficult to operate water taps, the mirror also has displays that turn the water tap on or off or control the water temperature.

The bathroom is only the start. Kitchens, bedrooms and all other parts of the “intelligent” home will become “user-friendly” to meet all kinds of individual needs. Sensors in doors, toilets, taps, light switches and carpets detect every activity and record them electronically. Doctors or care staff can see from the computer records what personal hygiene tasks have been completed, how often the elderly person visits the bathroom or uses the toilet. In case of an emergency, the computer automatically alerts the chosen contact person or calls the care center.

1. The ‘smart” bathroom has a touch screen mirror ________.

A．that can help the elderly brush their teeth

B．which is linked to a nursing house

C．behind which is a medicine cabinet

D．that can remind people to do many things

2. The underlined word “them” in the last paragraph refers to ________.

A．every activity

B．doors, toilets, taps, light switches and carpets

C．individual needs

D．sensors

3.The house mentioned in the passage can be described as _________.

A．smart but expensive

B．intelligent and convenient

C．smart and environmentally-friendly

D．fashionable and energy-saving

4. How is the passage mainly developed?

A．By inferring

B．By listing examples.

C．By comparing.

D．By introducing a practical method.

5.The author of the text mainly _________.

A．calls on people to care for the old
