21、A new study suggests that the more teenagers watch television, the more likely they are to develop depression(情绪低落) as young adults.

The researchers used a national long-term survey of adolescent（青少年的）health to survey the relationship between media use and depression. They based their findings on more than 4,000 adolescents who were not depressed when the survey began in the year 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 one-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 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 attend religious services and to vote.

【1】We can learn from the survey that of all the media use ______.

A. computer games are teenagers’ favorite

B. most teenagers prefer to listen to the radio

C. teenagers enjoy watching TV very much

D. newspaper is not included in the survey

【2】According to the passage, what kind of activity may help prevent depression?

A. Playing computer games. B. Taking part in sports.

C. Listening to the radio. D. Watching movies.

【3】We can conclude that a teenager should ____________.

A. play more video games instead of watching TV

B. be active in taking part in outdoor activities

C. be more active in reading and studying

D. attend religious services and care for politics

22、根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

What I Think of Boxing as a SportBoxing is a popular sport. Newspapers, magazines and sports programmes on TV frequently cover boxing matches. It could be the toughest of all sports to survive. It takes boxers hours in the gym and years to develop the specific characteristics needed to be a great boxer. 【1】

It seems to me that some people, especially men, find it appealing because it is an aggressive sport. When they watch a boxing match, they can identify with the winning boxer. This gives them the feeling of being a winner themselves. 【2】They do that because the boxer comes from their own country, and if “their” boxer loses, they often feel as if they have lost a fight themselves. It is a fact that many people have feelings of aggression from time to time, but they cannot show their aggression in their everyday lives. Watching a boxing match gives them a way of expressing it．

【3】Although boxers wear gloves during the fights, and amateur boxers even have to wear helmets, a kind of strong hard hat, there have frequently been accidents in both professional and amateur boxing, sometimes with dramatic consequences. Boxers have suffered from head injuries, and, occasionally, fighters have even been killed as a result of being knocked out in the ring. 【4】They are usually in the form of serious brain damage, even if a boxer has never been knocked out.

To conclude, I am personally not at all in favor of aggressive sports like boxing．【5】We can celebrate more men and women from non-aggressive sports as our heroes in our society. I believe that the world is aggressive enough already! Of course, people like competitive sports, and so do I, but I think that hitting other people in an aggressive way is not something that should be regarded as a sport．

A．However, boxing can be a very dangerous sport.

B．Sometimes fans are rooting for a particular boxer.

C．In boxing, fighters are required to hit a moving target.

D．Many fans are drawn to the sport because they love the competition.

E．Perhaps that is the reason why successful boxers are treated as big heroes.

F．I think it would be better if less time was given to aggressive sports on TV.

G．Besides, studies have shown that there are often long-term effects of boxing.

23、Green Is Good

Planting and growing things offers a lot more than fresh vegetables and flowers. Working in a nice outdoor space can help you stay refreshed, promote your creativity and enrich your leisure activities. 【1】. There are more advantages.

Providing a fun workout

It’s wonderful to get out in the garden on a beautiful day to give it a tidy. Planting seeds, pulling up weeds, moving pots, pushing a lawnmower, and other gardening tasks actually provide a whole-body, moderate-intensity workout for people, especially for adults. 【2】, which might keep you in motion longer than traditional exercise.

【3】

Having dirt under your fingernails may be a sign of poor hygiene. but scientists say it could also be a mark of good health. Thanks to beneficial bacteria found in soil, gardening may boost your immune system, helping you get sick less and fight off infections easier.

Nourishing your spirit

【4】. According to an experiment conducted by NASA, scientists found that planting and nurturing seeds, even in small pots, lifted astronauts’ moods and eased their stress in the severe environment of outer space. And if gardening can do that for astronauts, it should be more than good enough for those of us who watch them on TV.

Increasing coordination and strength

Hand and finger strength, flexibility and coordination are essential for everyday tasks like opening jars, carrying packages and picking up children. 【5】. Therefore, make good use of gardening as an ideal approach to enhancing your coordination and strength.

A．Sharpening your mind

B．And that’s just for starters

C．Improving your immune system

D．Even better, whatever your age, it is a beneficial activity

E．Working with plants provides stress relief and positive sensory stimulation

F．The benefits come from a combination of physical exercise and the stress reduction

G．Gardening is a great way to improve and maintain those fine motor skills and muscles

24、Next time your plane lands, listen to the sound of the tyres hitting the ground. The reason why the tyres don’t explode is that they are made of natural rubber. The tyres of cars, motorbikes and trucks are also often made of the same material.

Natural rubber comes from trees. Workers cut the trunks of the trees and collect a white liquid called latex(胶乳). In the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, huge numbers of rubber tyres were planted in countries including Malaysia, Burma and Brazil. More than a century ago, scientists discovered how to make man-made rubber, but natural rubber is much stronger and can last much longer. Nearly half the rubber which is produced each year is natural rubber and there is always a need for more.

Rubber trees are not easy to grow. They are affected by changes in temperature, too much or not enough rain, high winds and disease. Some trees survive while others die and it’s all down to their genes. Two British organizations, the Tun Abdul Razak Research Centre(TARRC) and The Genome Analysis Centre(TGAC), have been working together to look at rubber trees. They have now discovered the ‘genome’ of the rubber tree. This is the way genes fit together in very long chains of DNA. The genome contains all the information the plant or animal needs to grow. The genome for a plant, such as a rubber tree, is smaller than a human genome but it is still very long, which is why it has been so difficult to find. As Ewan Mollison of TARRC says, the work has been like putting a picture puzzle together where all the pieces show blue sea and blue sky.

Now scientists can use the rubber tree genome to produce stronger trees. In the future, it will be possible to grow trees which survive climate change and disease.

【1】Where were the first rubber trees planted?

A．In Europe and South Africa.

B．In Africa and Northeast Asia.

C．In Southeast Asia and South America.

D．In North America and Europe.

【2】What are rubber tees affected by?

A．Disease and soil condition.

B．Climate change and disease.

C．Soil condition and geographic location.

D．Geographic location and climate change.

【3】Why do scientists study the rubber tree genome?

A．To develop stronger rubber trees.

B．To change the DNA in rubber trees.

C．To grow rubber trees in more countries.

D．To improve the quality of man-made rubber.
