people are sad all the timeand that by extension, people who are happy cant be experiencing depression, even if they say they are. it is a mistaken version of depression. depression doesnt make you sad all the time.when im having a depressive feeling, im not walking around in black clothes, and weeping. i go out with friends. i play jokes. i keep working, and have friendly chats with the people i work with. i read books. above all, i experience moments of happiness. yet i feel a strange conflicting pressure. on the one hand, i feel like i need to engage in a sort of sadness for people to understand that i really am depressed and that each day is a struggle for me. because that way i will appear suitably sad, and thus, depressedand then maybe people will recognize that im depressed and perhaps theyll even offer support and assistance. on the other hand, i feel an extreme pressure to perform just the opposite, because sad depressed people are boring and no fun, as i am continually reminded every time i speak openly about depression or express feelings of sadness and frustration. im caught in a trap where if i dont perform sadness, im not really depressed, but if i express sadness at all to any degree, im annoying and boring and should stop being so self-centered. depression can become your master, but you can slip out from under it occasionally. and many depressed people dont actually spend it fainting dramatically on the couch and talking about how miserable they are.25.which of the following is true according to the passage? a. sad people are always

sailor sailing across the cold waters of the northern pacific ocean might have had every chance of being confronted by a sea cow. this cow would have measured 10 meters long, and weighed between five and ten tones. and it would spend most of its day cruising the seas, eating grass growing underwater. the cow in question was known as stellers sea cow, which is now extinct. today, many people are unaware that such an extraordinary creature once existed, or dont know its incredible story. but scientists have discovered many fundamental facts about this mystical animal.surprisingly, the first recorded sighting of a stellers sea cow didnt happen until 1741, when a sailing expedition was stuck on an uninhabited island, later named bering island. the sailor survived by hunting and eating the huge sea cow. like its modern relatives, the sea cow lived in herds. that and its slow-moving behaviour made it easy to be caught.those sailors that escaped bering island spread word of the bounty(大量) of meat to be found off its shores. as a result, more and more expeditions came to hunt the animals. one report stated that one sea cow could feed 33 men for a month.incredibly, just 27 years after the island and species had been discovered by modern man, the last sea cow was reported killed. that makes the stellers sea cow one of the few truly large mammals known to have been driven extinct in the modern age.29.which of the following words can be used to describe the stellers sea cow? a. huge b. fierce c. aggressive d. mild30. the underlined word “that ” refers to the fact that _. a. the sailor escaped bering island b. the sea cow was a kind of social animal c. more expeditions came to hunt the sea cow d. one sea cow could feed 33 men for a month31. in which year did the stellers sea cow become extinct? a. in 1741 b. in 1768 c. in 1785 d. in 187632. what is the main idea of the passage? a. why did expeditions hunt the stellers sea cow? b. when did the stellers sea cow become extinct? c. how did the stellers sea cow become extinct? d. what do we know about the stellers sea cow?【答案】29.a30.b31.b32.c【解析】试题分析：本文叙述“the stellers sea是怎样绝迹的”。 32.c主旨大意题。根据最后一段incredibly, just 27 years after the island and species had been discovered by modern man, the last sea cow was reported killed. that makes the stellers sea cow one of the few truly large mammals known to have been driven extinct in the modern age.最后一头sea cow被杀死，那就使stellers sea cow在现代绝迹。可知本文叙述的是“the stellers sea是怎样绝迹的”？故选c。【学法指导】计算题数字计算题往往涉及多处信息，这就要求学生要处处留心、斤斤计较，方能解答正确。31.b计算题。根据第三段第一句surprisingly, the first recorded sighting of a stellers sea cow didnt happen until 1741,在1741年发现stellers sea cow和最后一段第一句incredibly, just 27 years after the island and species had been discovered by modern man, the last sea cow was reported killed.最后一头stellers sea cow在27年后被杀死，可知1768年stellers sea cow灭绝，故选b。考点：考查说明文阅读dyour next saturday night takeaway could be brought to you by a robot after a major food delivery company announced plans to use automated vehicles to transport meals. europes biggest online takeaway food company just eat has partnered with starship technologies to deliver food with robots on the streets of london later this month. “nobody has ever done deliveries with land-based robots,” said allan martinson, the chief operating officer of starship.the robot courier can travel up to 4 miles per hour for about 10 miles. it uses a gps signal and nine cameras to navigate(确定方向). instead of a person arriving at their door, customers could find themselves receiving a notification(通知) on their phone that says a robot is on its way and a code to unlock the automated courier. “put the code in, the robot opens up, and theres your food,” said david buttress, chief manager of just eat.the robot, which has so far been tested in greenwich, milton keynes and glastonbury, costs 1 to transport within 3 miles, compared with the 3 to 6 it costs for a human courier. to date 30 robots have driven nearly 5,000 miles without getting into an accident or finding themselves picked on by passers-by. they have driven in more than 40 cities around the world, including london and tallinn, estonia.an initial worry was how the public would react to robots. but martinson said the public has been calm when passing the delivery machine on the streets. “the most surprising reaction has been the lack of reaction,” said martinson.another significant fear was that people would disrupt(扰乱) the robots, or try to steal them and their contents. to prevent this, the robot is fitted with nine cameras, two way audio, and movement sensors that send a warning if it is lifted off the ground. and it opens only with a pass code provided to the customer via a notification. “its much easier to shoplift than it is to steal a robot,” said martinson.33. the test of starship robots shows that _. a. they are easy to operate b. the robot delivery is appreciated in big cities c. the robot delivery is cheaper than human delivery d. they can travel for 10 hours continuously 34. which of the following is one of the worries about starship robots? a. peoples indifference to the robots b. safety of the robot delivery c. accuracy of the robot delivery d. peoples concern about public traffic35. which of the following would be the best title for the text? a. great improvement of just eat b. global trend of food companies c. new robots to move on the road d. delivery robots to replace takeaway drivers【答案】33.c34.b35.d【解析】试题分析：伦敦测试陆地快递机器人送餐服务。送货机器人取代外卖司机。35.d主旨大意题。纵观全文，特别是第一
