A white-collar job, for instance, is the kind of job many people look for, working with your brain and not your hands.White has a clean and pure image. That is why doctors, dentists, and nurses usually wear white uniforms. Babies are dressed in white at baptisms (洗礼) and brides wear white wedding gowns at weddings. White in these cases is the symbol of innocence or purity. Sometimes white is used in expressions that are not good. “Whitewash” is one such expression. At first, “whitewash” meant to paint over something with white paint to make it look better. However, it means something different today: to hide or to cover up mistakes or failures.A “white elephant” is another example of white used in a negative way. In ancient Thailand, a white elephant was regarded as a sacred animal, but it was very expensive to keep. The kings of those days presented a white elephant to the people they wanted to ruin. Once they received this holy, royal animal as a gift, they were not allowed to sell or kill it. Today, a “white elephant” means something that is big, useless, and unwanted. In America, when people want to get rid of their furniture or clothes, they often have a “white elephant sale”.56.

Sports in America take various forms: organized competitive struggles, athletic games, hunting and fishing. Most sports are seasonal, so that what is happening in sports depends upon the time of year. Baseball is the most popular sport in the US. It is played throughout the spring and summer, and professional baseball teams play well into the fall.Football is the most popular sport in the fall. The game originated as a college sport more than 75 years ago. Its not the same as European football or soccer. In American football there are 11 players as well on each team, and they are dressed in padded uniforms and helmets because the game is rough and injuries are likely to occur. It is still played by almost every college and university in the country. Basketball is the winner sport in American schools and colleges. Like football, basketball originated in the US, many Americans prefer it to football because it is played indoors throughout the winter and because it is a faster game. And the famous NBA games are considered the best of this game.Other sports attracting a great many people include wrestling, boxing and horse racing. Although horse-racing fans call themselves sportsmen, the exactness of the term is questionable, as only the jockeys who ride the horses in the races can be considered athletes. The so-called sportsmen are the spectators, who do not come primarily to see the horses race, but to bet upon the outcome of each race. Gambling is the attraction of horse racing.64.

Depression causes workers to be unproductive, causing companies and countries to lose billions of dollars. 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 worlds population will be suffering from a serious depression.Suicide rates among people suffering from the disease in its extreme or clinical form were 80 percent higher than in the population as a whole, and sufferers were four times more likely to have heart attacks. People who suffer from depression often have problems sleeping, getting up on time, and doing work unproductively.Depression, which researchers agree, has its origin in the genes, brings loss of confidence and ability to concentrate making it impossible for employees and managers to work efficiently.Depression is made more serious in China by Chinese inability to face it. Many people believe that depressed people are either weak or lazy. Besides, there is no good treatment, with few specialists available.“Most patients in China just dont get help,” a Chinese doctor says. “In my hospital, I have to see 30 or 40 patients in a morning, just have time to say Hello, how do you feel?”In Western countries, people are not afraid to admit that they have depression, but most do not tell it to their boss, because they fear that their boss would fire them.“In my experience, aging bosses are the most willing to admit they have it, because they feel the most Secure about themselves.” an American doctor says.Hopefully, in the near future, people around the world will be able to admit that they have depression so that they can get the right treatment.67.
