On average, 8.5 percent of adolescents aged 12 to 17 described having had a major depressive episode in the previous year, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration reported. But
18、there were striking differences by sex, with 12.7 percent of girls and 4.6 percent of boys affected. Depression is the leading cause of suicide, which in turn is the third-leading cause of death for 15 to 24-year-olds in the United States. The data combined 2004 to 2006 data showed that rates of pas
19、t year major depressive experience among youths aged 12 to 17 generally increased with increasing age, the researchers wrote. Researchers at SAMHSA and RTI International in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, prepared the report using data from the National Survey on Drug Use and Health. More th
20、an 67,700 youths aged 12 to 17 answered questions about mood and depression. They were also asked to rate how depression affected them using the Sheehan Disability Scale(残疾量表), which measures impact on family, friends, chores at home, work and school.

How to live a comfortable life.C For history fans, Margaret Thatcher is one of the most interesting of t
26、he British Prime Ministers. She is praised by both British and American conservatives for her firm principles and accomplishments of her term. Being so popular, it is only appropriate that a solid movie is made to detail the life of the first female Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. The film Iro
27、n Lady focuses on Thatcher (Meryl Streep) and her dementia(痴呆症), with certain items in her house reminding her of periods of her life, which then starts series of flashbacks. Thatcher also fantasizes about her husband, Denis (Jim Broadbent), and holds conversations with him throughout the film. In a
28、 world controlled by men and where women are thought to belong to the kitchen, Thatcher struggles to break through the barriers of sex to win a seat in Parliament(国会). Not only does she struggle with her sex, but being the daughter of a simple shopkeeper, she struggles with class barriers. After win
29、ning a seat in Parliament in 1959, Thatcher was appointed Secretary of State for Education and Science(SES). The film details how the leadership of her party didnt take her or her opinions seriously. Thatcher became tired of being unheard and decided to challenge the leadership of the party and run
30、for Leader of the Opposition. Not expecting to win the position, she took off in popularity, continuing a strong campaign even after her manager was killed by the Irish Republican Army. Thatcher, after the conservative party won a majority in Parliament, became the first woman Prime Minister of the
31、UK. She took off in popularity until an economic decline hit the country. She regained popularity after the Falklands War. The film, in many cases, shows archive footage(资料片)to convey the historic timeline of the movie. The film does an excellent job in recording the complex life of one of Britains
32、most complex women. It examines the price that Lady Thatcher paid for power, the class and sex struggles she overcame, and the burden of dementia. The film strikes an astonishingly dear portrait of the “Iron Lady” and will be sure to stand the test of time.28. According to the passage, the film Iron

A. autobiographyB. political reportC. film reviewD. life story31. What is the authors attitude towards the film Iron Lady? A. Nega
35、tiveB. PositiveC. DisapprovingD. CasualD People are being tricked into Facebook with the promise of a fun, free service without realizing theyre paying for it by giving up loads of personal information. Most Facebook users dont realize this is happening. Even if they know what the company is up to,
36、they still have no idea what theyre paying for Facebook because people dont really know what their personal data is worth. The biggest problem, however, is that the company keeps changing the rules. That was the great thing about Facebook. You could create your own little private network. Last year,
37、 the company changed its privacy rules so that many things such as your city, your photo as well as your friends names were set by default (默认)to be shared with everyone on the Internet. According to Facebooks vice-president Elliot Schrage, the company is simply making changes to improve its service
38、, and if people dont share information, they have a “less satisfying experience”. Some critics think this is more about Facebook looking to make more money. In original business model, it involved selling ads and putting them. At the side of the pages totally, who wants to look at ads when theyre on
39、line connecting with their friends? The privacy issue has already landed Facebook in hot water in Washington. In April, Senator Charles Schumer called on Facebook to change its privacy policy. He also urged the Federal Trade Commission to set guidelines for social networking sites. “I think the sena
40、tor rightly communicated that we had not been clear about what the new products were and how people could choose to use them or not to use them.” Schrage admits. I suspect that whatever Facebook has done so far to invade our privacy, its only the beginning, which is why Im considering cancelling my
41、account. Facebook is a handy site, but Im upset by the idea that my information is in the hands of people I dont know. Thats too high a price to pay.32.

44、nection. D. To expand its business.35. Why does the author plan to cancel his Facebook account? A. He is dissatisfied with its present service. B. He finds many of its users untrustworthy. C. He doesnt want his personal data badly used. D. He is upset by its frequent rule changes.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分, 满分1

60、t you, it can be very difficult to let go of your anger. But forgiveness is possible - and it can be surprisingly 62 (benefit) to your physical and mental health. So far, research 63_ (show) that people who forgive can have more energy, better appetite and better sleep. “People who forgive show 64 (
61、little) anger and more hopefulness.” says Dr. Frederic Luskin, who wrote the book Forgive for Good. “So it can help reduce the tiredness out of the immune system and allow people 65 (feel) more energetic.” So when someone has hurt you, cool down first. Take a couple of breaths and think of something
62、 66 gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, or someone you love. Dont wait for an 67 (apologize). “Many times the person who hurt you may never think of apologizing.” says Dr. Luskin. “They may have wanted to hurt you or they just dont see things in 68 same way. So if you wait for people to
63、 say sorry, you could be waiting a very long time.” Next keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean 69 (accept) the action of the person who upsets you. Instead, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you. Finally, try to see things from the other persons perspective. Yo
