Puppy love（早恋）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 “loss of self”. According to the study, even though boys would say “lose themselves in a romantic relationship”, this “loss 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 wont tell that to their parents.Dr Marianm 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 depressioneating or mood changesand 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.21. Whats the main idea of the passage?A. Puppy love may bring young people depression.B. Parents should forbid their childrens love.C. Romance is a two-edged sword for adults.D. Romance is good for young people.22. 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.23. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Lacking love can lead young people to grow up more quickly.B. Early love makes young people keep close to their friends and parents.C. Parents should help their children to be aware of the signs of depression.D. The older a woman is, the less likely she seems to lose herself in romance.24. Whats the authors attitude towards puppy love?A. Confused B. Disapproving C. Disinterested D. Scared(B)The English test will be removed from Chinas college entrance exam by 2020, according to details of exam and admission reform revealed by the Ministry of Education. The national college entrance exam, known as the “Gaokao” has been used to evaluate Chinese students for three decades. The Ministry of Education has worked out a plan for reforming exams and enrollment. The Ministry will solicit(征求) public opinions before its release. Instead, tests will be held several times a year to allow students to choose when and how often they sit the exam so as to alleviate(减轻) study pressure and change Chinas once-in-a-lifetime exam system.The plan and suggestions for its implementation（实施） will be announced in the first half of next year. It will be piloted in selected provinces and cities and promoted nationwide from 2017. A new exam and admission system will be established by 2020, according to the education ministry.The decision has aroused a heated discussion among Shanghai educators and parents who doubted the reform would reduce the burden of learning English or if the substitute test could reflect a students English skills and help students learn English better.“The reform shows China is learning from the West to give students more test-taking chances. But more chances might become more of a burden since Chinese students are likely to repeat the test until they get the highest score,” said Cai Jigang, a professor at Fudan Universitys College of Foreign Languages and Literature and chairman of the Shanghai Advisory Committee for College English Teaching at Tertiary Level.Yu Lizhong, chancellor of New York University Shanghai, where classes are in English and students are required to have a high standard of English, said the most important aspect of the reform lay in what to test and how to test.“As far as I see, the reform doesnt mean English is no longer important for Chinese students after it will be excluded（排除） from the unified（统一标准的） college entrance exam,” Yu said. “In a way, English is even more important than before since the test would only serve as reference, while every college and university, even every major, can have different requirements of a students English skills under a diverse evaluation system.Yu said some students will have their study pressure reduced if the major they choose doesnt need excellent English while others still need to study hard if they want to be among the best students.The education ministry said the reform would not affect students attending the college entrance exam over the next three years.25. What can we learn from the first paragraph?A. English will become less and less important in the stage of compulsory education.B. It has been 30 years since English became one subject of national college entrance exam.C. Chinas once-in-a-lifetime exam system is unacceptable at all.D. The system that tests are held several times does more good than once-in-a-lifetime exam system.26. According to the passage, Shanghai educators and parents argue that _A. the new exam and admission system will make no differenceB. English shouldnt be removed from Chinas college entrance examC. the reform may accomplish the very oppositeD. Western educational system does not apply to China27. What does the passage try to express in the underlined sentence?A. Students neednt lay a good foundation during the period of high school.B. Whether students should study hard English may depend on their major.C. Students can constantly strive for perfection only in their major.D. English must be close to full mark.28. Whats the purpose of the passage?A. To advise students not to devote themselves to English.B. To call on Education Department to remove English from “Gaokao”.C. To support the act of Ministry of Education.D. To encourage students to do as they have planned.(C) It s 2040. You have a job, a family and you re about 40 years old. Welcome to your future life.
