（2019中考选练）

Everyone talks about the advantage of taking time out for “simple pleasures”. The idea is that we will be happier if we often do inexpensive, easy-to-do activities.

However, the problem for many of us is t hat we don’t know what makes us happy.

When I was in college, my mother gave me some wise advice. She said, “Before you get married and live with another person, you need to spend some time living by yourself. You need to get to know yourself.”

So I did exactly that. For almost two years, I lived by myself. I found that I loved to spend hours looking around in bookstores. I also loved to spend an afternoon just walking around the city. And every so often, I needed the moments of pure silence.

But, of course, we all don’t enjoy the same things.

A simple pleasure for me would be to spend an hour reading a book in my backyard. However, that same activity would give my husband no pleasure. We are all so different.

Sometimes, we already know what makes us happy. However, as life gets busier and we get older, we put aside our simple pleasures.

For example, I had to give up playing the flute（长笛）when I started working and had family responsibilities. Playing my flute seemed selfish（自私的） when no one else in my family could join, but three years ago I returned to playing the flute.

I regret having ever stopped.

Simple pleasures are neither simple nor universal（普遍的）.

Our simple pleasures are a reflection（反映）of who we are. They are different activities that give each of us joy.

Certainly there are some common topics—such as being out in nature, doing something creative, or enjoying music and literature—but beyond that, each of us has to find out what it is that feeds our souls（灵魂）.

That isn’t always easy in a world in which we have to consider other people’s needs and opinions as well as

our own, but enjoying simple pleasures is something that each of us deserves （应得）.

Think of it as your right, and say to yourself, “Today, I’m going to discover what my simple pleasures are.”

1.What is the writer’s opinion about simple pleasures?

A.They change as we grow older.

B.They can reflect our characters.

C.It’s expensive to achieve them.

D.People with no responsibilities can enjoy them.

2.What does the writer want to tell by sharing her experience of living alone?

A.Wise people often take their mothers’ advice.

B.A couple don’t necessarily share the same interests.

C.It’s necessary to live alone before getting married.

D.It’s worth spending time alone enjoying simple pleasures.

3.What can we learn from the writer’s experience of playing the flute?

A.We should develop an interest that others can take part in.

B.Making our family happy is better than making ourselves happy.

C.Keeping our interests alive is a good method to make ourselves happy.

D.Family responsibilities are more important than our own interests.

4.In the last two paragraphs, the writer

A.suggests readers pay no attention to others’ opinions

B.encourages readers to get simple pleasures actively

C.teaches readers to bal ance others’ needs with their own needs

D.reminds readers to realize simple pleasures are the most important part of life 【参考答案】1—4、BDCB

隐形杀手——抑郁症

Although we all want happiness and joy every day, sometimes we still feel blue. Most people can control this, but sometimes it can get worse and people fall into depression (抑郁).

This year, the WHO chose“depression” as the theme of World Health Day. This aims to raise people's awareness (意识) of it. According to its recent report, about 322 million people suffered depression in 2015. This is more than 4 percent of the world's population.

Depression is described as a mental disorder(精神疾病). It has several symptoms(症状) like sadness and loss of interest. In extreme cases, depression may lead to suicide (自杀)．

There are three groups of people that are more likely to develop depression, according to WHO. One is old people, while another is women who are pregnant (怀孕的) or have just given birth. And young people are also one of the three groups.

In China, depression among young people is on the rise, Zhu Zhuohong, a famous psychology professor told Xinhua. Competitions, especially in education, can cause a lot of pressure.

Luckily, efforts are being made to solve this problem. Now several social organizations

in China are trying hard to help those with depression. WHO also held the “Depression: Let's talk” campaign this month, aiming to make sure that people with depression seek and get help.

Could your best friend make you fat?

Researchers who have studied“networks”of obesity(肥胖) think so：they found that if someone's friend becomes obese, that person's chances of becoming obese increase by more than half.

Brothers or sisters and a husband or a wife also have an influence, although reduced_people whose brothers or sisters became obese were 40 percent more likely to grow obese, while people whose husband or wife became obese were 37 percent more likely to.

“This is the first study to show how obesity spreads through the social network from person to person，”James Fowler of the University of California, San Di ego, who worked on the study, told in a telephone interviewing.

The researchers said their findings show that obesity is contagious—not like

a virus which is contagious, but in a social sense.

It may help explain why obesity is worsening across the United States, with two-

thirds of Americans overweight and almost a third technically obese.

“It has become very popular to speak of the obesity epidemic.We began to wonder if it is truly an epidemic，”Dr.Nicholas Christakis, a professor of medical sociology at Harvard Medical School in Boston, told the briefing.

“We think that these findings reinforce(加强) the idea that obesity is not just an individual problem but a collective problem，”Christakis said.

“People look around them and see people gaining weight and it might change their attitude about what constitutes an acceptable body size，”he added.“You might say it's OK to be heavier.”

1．The underlined phrase“reduced people”refers to______.

A．the influence of people is smaller and smaller

B．fat persons are having less and less friends

C．the number of fat persons is decreasing largely

D．persons are becoming thinner and thinner

2．What's the new finding of researchers in the passage?

A．Obesity is popular with Americans.

B．Obesity spreads from person to person.

C．Obesity can be spread like a virus.

D．Obesity is becoming an epidemic.

3．In what aspect do your fat friends have an impact on you?

A．They may influence you how to choose a lover.

B．They may assist you in forming a life value.

C．They may change your attitudes towards obesity.

D．They may help you understand what obesity is.

4．From the passage，we can infer that________.

A．it's better not to make friends with fat persons

B．obesity is a kind of disease that can spread

C．most Americans think obesity is a kind of beauty

D．it needs a collective effort to deal with obesity
