(2021·江苏常州模拟)Depression(抑郁症) is a serious problem today. 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.
A recent research shows that the more teenagers watch television, the more likely they are to develop depression as young adults.
The researchers used a nationwide long－term survey of teenage health to investigate the relationship between media(传媒) use and depression. They based their findings on more than four thousand teenagers who were not depressed when the survey began in 2000.
As part of the survey, the young people were asked how many hours of television or videos they watched daily. They were also asked how often they played computer games and listened to the radio. Media use totaled an average of five and a half hours a day. More than two hours of that was spent watching TV.
Seven years later, in 2007, more than seven percent of the young people had signs of depression. The average age at that time was twenty－one.
The researchers say they did not find any such relationship with the use of other media such as movies, video games or radio, etc. But the study did find that every extra hour of television meant an eight percent increase in the chances of developing signs of depression. Young men were more likely than young women to develop depression given the same amount(总量) of media use.
The study didn't explore if watching TV causes depression. But one possibility is that it was taking time away from activities that could help prevent depression.
Last December, the journal Social Indicators Research published a study of activities that help lead to happy lives. Sociologists from the University of Maryland found that people who describe themselves as happy spend less time watching television than unhappy people. The study found that happy people are more likely to be socially active, to read, to take part in religious services and to be volunteers.

A．Only rich and educated people may suffer from depression.
B．Depression hits 30 percent of people around the world.
C．Teenagers are more likely to develop depression.
D．It is a common illness that can be cured easily.
4．What can we infer from the passage

四、阅读表达
(2021·山东泰安模拟)①Being a youth is one thing, and being a good one is another. A good youth should have these qualities(品德)：First of all, health. A good body is the best riches. Without it, nothing can be done well. If you are poor in health, you will have to take medicine day after day. Even you can't work, do sports and so on. Secondly, one must be of good quality. Always do something for others. Help those in trouble and care about the people around you. If everyone did the same, ②what a wonderful world this would be! Thirdly, one must have the ability to work with others. Cooperation and communication(合作和交流) are two important keys to better human relations. Everyone needs friends because no one can live through life alone or do everything he wants to.
Besides the examples above, patriotism is the one we should never forget. Patriotism means a love for one's country. It's one of the highest qualities of humans'. Everyone should love his own country. But people sometimes think patriots(爱国者) must be fighters or that they live in a time of fighting for their country. That is wrong. A good youth's work is not only fighting. A good youth will do the things his country asks him to do.
I think a good youth of today should also have some training in art. If everyone can enjoy art and be able to make more of it for others, then people will live better and enjoy more.
