24、dren in the class. Every child was given a job for which they would be responsible for the rest of that school year. As some jobs were more interesting than others, the children were eager to be given one of the best. Among them Rita stood out. She was a kind and quiet girl. Last year she carried ou

25、t the teachers instructions perfectly. She was the favorite to be given the best job to look after the class dog. But this year there was a big surprise. Each child received one of the normal jobs, like preparing the books for the lessons, cleaning the blackboard or looking after one of the pets. Bu

26、t Ritas job was very different. She was given a little box with some sand and one ant. Although the teacher insisted that this ant was very special, Rita could not help feeling disappointed. “I will turn this little task into something great,” Rita said to herself. She started to study everything ab

27、out the little ant, gave it the best food and made the box perfect. The ant ended up growing quite a little bigger. One day, the teacher announced that Ritas class had been chosen to accompany Doctor Martinez to the tropical rainforest to study all kinds of insects in summer, because the class had b

28、est cared for the little ant. The class was filled with joy. Everyone thanked Rita for having been so patient and responsible.

31、onnect it with a certain atmosphere, certain physical surroundings (环境), and certain emotional attitudes within themselves. This sentimentality (多愁善感) toward home is something that has come down to us from the past. Many modern people do not have it, and I think it is a good thing that they do not.I

32、n the old days, life was difficult. Enemies could attack you and kill or rob you, and you had little protection against them. People did not live in well-built houses where doors could be locked. They did not have the protection of an organized police force or telephones which could call the police

33、instantly. How did this influence the way people felt about home? Small family groups clung(贴近) tightly together for protection against beasts and against other men.Today, thanks to modern transportation and well-organized society, thousands of people willingly and eagerly leave the surroundings whe

34、re they were born, and the oftener they do so, the less sentiment they are likely to have for those surroundings. I lived in England for three years, and I noticed that boys and girls left their parents homes and lived in places of their own. There they could just telephone and ask an agency to prov

35、ide them with a house or an apartment, which was their home. How has the meaning of this word “home” been changed by such activity? What does home mean to those people or to families who often move about, living in first one hotel and then another? I believe that for them home means a place where th

36、ey can have privacy.As for me, the atmosphere and surroundings of the place where my parents live have no sentimental attachment (依恋). Home is where I can shut the door and be by myself. When I left my parents several years ago, I was anxious to leave. You might call it unfeeling, but that was the w

37、ay I felt. On the day of my departure for the United States, my grandmother cried. My father, however, showed that he knew how I felt. “Son,” he said, “I am not sorry that you are leaving us. I only hope that you make the most of your time.”53. Why are modern people willing to leave their parents ho

38、mes?A. Because they can afford the money to live outside.B. Because there are no wild animals or enemies around.C. Because the society provides them with the feeling of safety.D. Because they are not actually satisfied with their environment.54. What can we learn from the article?A. Surroundings inf

39、luence the way that people act.B. Not many modern people have sentimentality toward home.C. Rights to privacy are well protected in modern society.D. Older people can hardly understand the leaving of the young.55. What is the best title for the passage?A. The History of Home B. People and HomeC. Dif

40、ferent Ideas about Home D. Ideas of Home Have Changed DDepression is not a choice. Rather, it is a true medical condition like high blood pressure or heart disease. In the United States alone, more than 17 million people suffer from depression with women being twice as likely as men to suffer from t

41、he disease. Depression crosses racial and socioeconomic lines. Anyone can suffer from it, and those that do are not “crazy” or “weak”. They have a serious yet highly treatable disease.Feeling down? Youre not alone. If depression seems pretty common, it is. One in every ten adults suffers from depres

42、sion. And thats what has scientists confused. If depression causes harm to the body, why is it so widespread in the population? Some scientists think they may have the answer. Depression may have an evolutionary (进化) benefit. It may improve ones chances of fighting off infection (感染).Scientists have

43、 known that depressed people show an immunoreactive(免疫反应性的) condition known as inflammation (炎症)，even when they are not infected. For several years they have been finding that genes (基因) linked to depression also affect the function of the immune system. Stress, which can lead to depression, also ch

44、ange the immune system. These findings suggested that depression was somehow linked to the bodys ability to fight disease . Some scientists now come up with the idea that depression might have had an evolutionary advantage in the days before modern medicine and antibiotics(抗生素). Infection was a majo

45、r cause of death in early human history. Surviving those infections determined which genes were passed to the next generation. They suspect that depression helped people, especially children, survive infection. Extreme tiredness leads to inactivity and less social contact which helps keep infection

46、from spreading. Having no appetite helps avoid food sharing which can also spread infection. Sleeplessness, which is associated with both depression and immune system activation, may have been a mechanism to keep a person alert (机警) to fight off enemies after injury.If scientists are correct about t

47、his link, it could lead to new treatments for depression. They are interested in drugs that treat conditions where the immune system attacks the persons own body, known as auto immune diseases. It is possible that medicine known to treat auto immune disease may be successful in treating depression a
