But after a long struggle, I found a hobby that changed my life.My depression really kicked in after my parents moved to the UK when I was about 11 years old. Having to get used to life in a foreign country was very difficult. The friends I knew were gone, and the changes in my environment led to my depression. I had problems in many parts of my life, which made it feel impossible for me to carry on.At that time, I didnt understand that depression was an illness. I remember a particular day when I couldnt find enough strength to get myself home from playing in the parkit felt like I was carrying the world on my shoulders.Other times, I even thought about killing myself I just felt so trapped. I never really reached out for help either, as I felt that there wasnt anyone who could have helped with my situation.What turned my life around, however, was discovering street dancing. I was introduced to it by a friend, and I started taking classes at a studio in London. After a few weeks, I began to go out and meet a lot of other dancers to practice and train with them on a regular basis. It gave me a purpose, and eventually the happiness I gained from it helped me manage my depression. The dancing helped me get my life back, focus on my studies, and get through university.My advice to anyone who might be going through something like I was is to reach out for help. The thing about life is that it changes, and you never know what might come your way. If someone had said to me during those dark moments that I would have gone on to achieve the things I have, I wouldnt have ever believed it.Just take each day as it comes, and remember that theres always someone, or something, out there to help you.24How did the author deal with his depression at first?AHe turned to his old friends for help.BHe talked about it with his parents.CHe put up with it by himself.DHe read many articles about it.25How did street dancing benefit the author?AIt helped him find a good job.BIt taught him how to control his emotions perfectly.CIt let him find many true friends.DIt cheered him up and made him feel positive.26What does the author suggest people do when they feel down?AAlways be confident in themselves.BFind someone or something to rescue them.CWait for help to come patiently.DAccept everything that life sends their way.27How might the author feel about his future?AHopeful. BFearful. CSatisfied. DUncertain.CDo you have trouble trying to create the next big idea? Sometimes the answer isnt to just force an idea out of your mind. Instead, you might want to try sitting back, relaxing and letting your mind wander. Yes, you heard that correctly. If you are in need of a new idea, try daydreaming.Researchers from the university of California, Santa Barbara, found an association between daydreaming and creative problem-solving. Their study includes having participants first do an “unusual-use task”. They had to try to come up with as many different ways to use an object as they could.Then, the participants chose to do one of the following four things before doing the “unusual-use task” again: complete a difficult task; complete an easy task; take a 12-minute break; or skip the 12-minute break and move right on to the task exercise again.Surprisingly, the group that performed best was the one that completed the easy task. Many participants reported that they were daydreaming while performing the easy task. So the researchers believed that this daydreaming might have helped unlock their creativity.But how could daydreaming help the brain come up with creative ways? The answer is something known as “unconscious thought”. Even when you are not actively working to solve a problem, it is still in the back of your mind. Your brain is still thinking about the problem, but in a much more subtle (不易察觉的) way.When you daydream, your mind is allowed to think in ways it normally would not. Because it is free of control, it can create completely new and out-of-the-box ideas.Great ideas never come easily, but that does not mean you always have to work hard to get them. Feel free to do what you want and let your mind wander.28The “unusual-use task” in Paragraph 2 means that participants _.Acomplete an easy taskBcomplete a very difficult taskCtake a 12-minute breakDthink of various ways to use an object29Why did the participants who completed the easy task perform best?AThey were not actively working to solve the easy task.BThey daydreamed and it helped them be more creative.CThey were daydreaming while performing the difficult task.DThey skipped the 12-minute break to complete the task again.30What does the underlined phrase “unconscious thought” in Paragraph 5 mean?AYour brain wanders in a subtle way within your control.BYour brain knows clearly what youre thinking and doing.CYour brain is thinking about a problem outside of your awareness.DYour brain refuses to receive any information from the outside world.31The passage mainly wants to tell us that _.Abrainstorming is important to creative ideas.Bdaydreaming is a way to improve creativity.Cproblem-solving skills are important in our lives.Dthe more we exercise brains, the more ideas well get.DFrench writer Frantz Fanon once said, “To speak a language is to take on a world, a culture.” Since the world changes every day, so does our language.More than 300 new words and phrases have recently made it into the Oxford Dictionary Online, and in one way or another they are all reflections (反映)of todays changing world.After a year that was politically unstable (政治局面不稳定的), its not hard to understand the fact that peoples political views are one of the main drives of our enlarging vocabulary. One example is “clicktivism”, a compound of “click” and “activism”. It refers to “armchair activists” - people who support a political or social cause(事业), but only show their support from behind a computer or smart phone.“We had all the words around Brexit (脱欧) in the last update and we are now starting to see all the words around Trump coming into the dictionary,” Angus Stevenson, Oxford Dictionaries head of content development, told The Guardian.Lifestyle is also changing our language. For example, “fitspiration - a compound of fit and inspiration - refers to a person or thing that encourages one to exercise and stay fit and healthy. The phrase “climate refugee” - someone who is forced to leave their home because of climate change - reflects peoples concern for the environment.According to Stevenson, social media was the main source for the new expressions “People feel much freer to coin their own words these days.” he said.But still, not all newly-invented words get the chance to make their way into a mainstream(主流) dictionary. If you want to create your own hit words, Angus Stevenson suggests that you should not only make sure that they are expressive and meaningful, but also have an attractive sound so that people will enjoy saying them out loud.32. Why does the author mention Brexit and Trump?A. To explain the origin of the word “clicktivism”.B. To stress two major political events that changed the world.C. To explain what kind of new words can make it into a dictionary.D. To show the influences of current affairs (时事) on the English language.33. The underlined word coin in the sixth paragraph probably means _.A. use B. create C. change D. record34. How is the article mainly written?A. By giving examples. B. By making comparisons.C. By following a timeline. D. By presenting research findings.35. What is the article mainly about?A. New words and phrases into the Oxford Dictionary Online.B. The usage of new words and phrases.C. New words and phrases in politics.D. The influence of social media on our language.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的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。Take Care of Your EyesMany of us dont pay attention to the importance of eye care.
