One expert says that depressionis like cancer because it is “widespread, costly and deadly”. Depression hits one person in five around the world. Over any six-month period, between five to sevenpercent of the world's population will be suffering from a serious depression.A recent research shows that the more teenagers watch television, the morelikely they are to develop depression as young adults.The researchers used a nationwide long-term survey of teenage health to investigate(调查) the relationship between media(传播媒介) use and depression.They based their findings on more than four thousand teenagers who were not depressed when the survey began in 2000.As part of the survey, the young people were asked how many hours of televisionor videos they watched daily. They were also asked how often they played computer games and listened to the radio. Media use totaled an average of five and one-half hours a day. More than two hours of that was spent watching TV.Seven years later, in 2007, more than seven percent of the young people had signs of depression. The average age at that time was twenty-one.The researchers say they did not find any such relationship with the use of other media such as movies, video games of radio etc. But the study did find that everyextra hour of television meant an eight percent increase in the chances of developing signs of depression. Young men were more likely than young women to develop depression given the same amount of media use.The study didn’t explore if watching TV causes depression. But one possibility is that it was taking time away from activities that could help prevent depression.Last December, the journal Social Indicators Research published a study of activities that help lead to happy lives. Sociologists from the University of Maryland found that people who describe themselves as happy spend less time watching television than unhappy people. The study found that happy people are more likely tobe socially active, to read, to take part in religious services and to vote.1. The survey shows that of all the media uses.A. most teenagers prefer to listen to the radioB. teenagers enjoy watching TV very muchC. computer games are teenagers’ favouriteD. magazines are mentioned in the survey2.The result of the research seems to prove .。

It was $29.95. Unluckily, Jenny didn’t even have the 95 cents.As she crossed the street, she thought about doing her brother’s housework, cleaning the floor, washing the dishes all month, but even then she would have only eleven dollars. Suddenly, something small and pink in the snow caught her eyes.Jenny walked over and picked it up from the snow. It was a beautiful wallet. She opened the wallet and foun d many dollars and a woman’s driver’s licence. Jenny put the wallet into her bag quickly. She turned around and walked back.Jenny’s heart beat fast as she entered the store. She had long dreamed about this moment, but something didn’t feel right. As she got to the Happy Hannah dolls, she pushed away her feelings. She grabbed (抓起) one and walked toward the checkout.As Jenny was waiting to pay, her mobile phone rang. Jenny looked around, startled (吓了一跳). It was her grandma. Jenny’s heart was suddenly fil led with love and warmth when she thought of her. She put the doll down and answered the phone.“Hi, Grandma! I’m going to be a little bit late tonight….Alright....I love you, too.” Jenny left the store and walked all the way to 301 West Street. The woman who answered the door looked sad.“Here, I found this in the snow,” Jenny said.“Oh, good God! This is the money for the orphanage (孤儿院)!

But have you ever wondered why those things make you uncomfortable?It's all about personal space, which means not only an imaginary space around the body, but also the space around all the senses. People feel that their space is being violated (侵犯) when they meet with an unwelcome sound, smell or look. This is probably why a man on a crowded bus shouting into his mobile phone or a woman next to you putting on strong perfume (香水) makes you feel angry.Whether people have had a stronger wish to protect their personal space in recent times is hard to say. Yet studies of airlines show that people have a strong desire (渴望) to have space to themselves. In a survey by TripAdvisor, a travel website, people saidthat if they had to pay more for some extra service, they would rather have larger seats than extra food.Although people may need their personal space, some hardly realize it. For example, people on a bus who hold newspapers in front of their faces to read in fact keep a distance from strangers.Go and watch a library table. You will notice that one of the corner seats will usually be taken first, because they are the farthest way. What if someone sits opposite to you? Maybe you will pile up books as if to make a wall.Preference (偏好) for personal space are different from culture to culture. Scientists have found that Americans generally prefer more personal space than people from other cultures. In Latin (拉丁人的) cultures, however, people are more comfortable standing close to each other.1. The writer mainly___________in this article.A: tells us how to achieve personal spaceB: explains why people need personal spaceC: introduces some knowledge about personal spaceD: argues for the importance of keeping personal space2. Who might feel his personal space is safe according to the passage?A: A person who has to sit next to a lady putting on strong perfume.B: A person who has been watched by a stranger for a long time.C: A person who hears strange noises when reading at home.D: A Latin boy who is chatting with a friend sitting close to him.3. What can we know from the survey by TripAdvisor?A: People need a smaller personal space in recent times than before.B: People have a strong desire for personal space in recent times.C: There are not enough seats on the plane to meet people's needs.D: Food service is better provided than seats on the plane.4. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A: The space around the body is more needed than that around all the senses.B: If you hold newspapers on the bus, your personal space won't be violated.C: People usually choose the corner seats first in a library for personal space.D: Different cultures share the same preferences for personal space.【答案】1.C 2.D 3.B 4.C二、完形填空To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor: you must be able to(1)______the attention and interest of your students: you must be a(2) _____ speaker, with a good, strong,(3)______voice which is fully under your control: and you must be able to act what you are teaching in order to make its meaning clear.(4)______a good teacher and you will see that he does not sit still(5)_______his class: he stands the whole time when he is teaching; he walks about, using his(6) _________, hands and fingers to help him in his explanations, and his face to express(7)_______.

中考阅读与写作三一、完形填空The teacher stood before his class and was going to hand out the final exam papers. “I know how hard you have all worked to prepare for this test,” he said. “And because I know you can do it well, I am willing to offer a B to anyone who would 1 not to take the test.Many students jumped up to thank the teacher and left the classroom. The teacher looked at the remaining (剩余的) students and said, “Does anybody else want to get a B? This is your last 2 .” Two more students decided to go.Seven students remained (留下). The teacher then handed out the 3 . There were only three sentences typed on the paper: Congratulations! You have just been 4 an A in this class. Keep believing in yourself.I never had a teacher like that, but I think it is a test 5 any teacher could and should give. Students who do not have 6 in what they have learned are B students at best (充其量).The same is true in real life. The A students are those who believe in what they are doing because they have 7 both successes and failures. They have learned life’s lessons, either from normal education or from events in their lives, and have become 8 people.Scientists say that by the age of eight, 80% of what we believe about ourselves has already been formed. You are a big kid now , and you 9 that you have some limits (限制). 10 , there is nothing you can’t do or learn or be.

According to the card, if you are unable to go, you can ________.A. return the cardB. visit the MuseumC. pay no attention to the messageD. contact Alice’s motherBFairy tale (童话) fiction or not?One hot debate topic from I Can I Bibi (《奇葩说》) has become popular on Weibo: Should parents tell their children that fairy tales are fake (假的)? Some people think we shouldn’t. Fairy tales give kids hope and teach life lessons. But others think that children need the ability to distinguish (区分) real from fake, and this role is best played by their parents. What’s your opinion?YESHu Enqi, 16There is no doubt that the world of fairy tales is beautiful, but the real world is cruel (残酷的). If children are always deep in fairy tales, they might not adjust (调节) themselves to society. That’s why there are so many “giant babies” in society. It is parents’ duty to tell children that beauty and darkness are coexistent (共存的). They need to be stronger to adapt to (适应) society.Li Ziyi, 16It’s important to tell kids the wisdom in fairy tales, not whether or not they’re fake. If I’m a parent, I will tell my kids: “Dear, the Queen’s poisoned apple is fake, but in our daily lives, fake apples may be many other seductions (诱惑) that you need to be careful of.” Fairy tales can never solve all problems. After all, dangers are always present in both fairy tales and reality (现实).NOYuan Siyi, 16Not every fairy tale is fake —they’re from our lives. The essen ce (本质) of fairy tales is to teach children the most basic truths based on the real world. The content of fairy tales is not meaningless. Parents could look on them as partners to children when they grow up. Children will understand the truth step by step.Hu Pei, 16As a kid bathed in fairy tales, I don’t want to be told that they are fake. Fairy tales get kids to read, help shape their world outlook, encourage their imaginations and give them entertainment. Even if parents tell the kids the cruel reality, they may miss the point. Instead, they may be filled with fear of the future and the world, which is not our purpose.4. According to the passage, “the giant babies” are ___________.A. those babies who can’t grow upB. those babies who are big in shapeC. those adults who can adapt to society wellD. those adults who can’t distinguish real from fake5. According to Li Ziyi, ___________.A. we shouldn’t tell children fairy tales are fakeB. some fairy tales have wisdom while other s don’tC. there are many dangers in different shapes in realityD. “poisoned apples” needn’t be afraid of because they are fake6. From the passage, we can know _________.A. in fairy tales everything is beautiful and goodB. fairy tales can give kids hope and teach life lessonsC. fairy tales have nothing to do with the real worldD. fairy tales mainly need to tell kids cruelty of realityCBertie was sad for weeks, months after the lion died. There was nothing I could do to cheer him or even console (安慰) him. He would sit for hours in his room, or go off on long walks all on his own. He seemed so shut away inside himself. Try as I did, I could not reach him.①Then one day I was in the kitchen here, when I saw him hurrying down the hill, waving his stick and shouting to me. “I’ve got it,” he cried, as he came in, “I’ve got it at last.” He showed me the end of his stick. It was white. “See that, Millie?” “Chalk! It’s chalk underground, isn’t it?”“So?” I said.“You know the famous W hite Horse on the hillside at Uffington, the one they carved (雕刻) out of the chalk a thousand years ago? That horse never died, did it? It’s still alive, isn’t it? Well, that’s what we’re going to do, so he will never be forgotten. We’ll carve The White Prince out on the hillside—he’ll be there forever, and he’ll be white forever too. ”“It’ll take a bit of time, won’t it?” I said.“We’ve got plenty, haven’t we?” he replied, with the same smile he had smiled at me when he was a ten-year-old boy asking me if he could come back and mend my kite for me.②Every spare hour we had, we were up there scraping (刨土) away with spades (铲子), and we had buckets (桶) to carry away the earth. It was hard, back-breaking work, but it was a labour (劳动) of love. We did it, Bertie and I, we did it together—paws, claws, tail, mane, until he was complete and perfect in every detail.③It was just after we’d finished that the butterflies first came. We noticed that when the sun comes out after the rain in the summer, the butterflies—Adonis Blues, they are, I looked them up – come out to drink on the chalk face. Then The White Prince becomes a butterfly lion, and breathes again like a living creature (动物).④So now you know how Bertie’s white lion became The White Prince and how The White Prince became our butterfly lion.—Adapted from The Butterfly Lion 7. The sentence “It took the next twenty years to do it.” should be put at the beginning of one paragraph. Whereshould we put it?A. ①B. ②C. ③D. ④8. The underlined word “he” in Paragraph 4 refers to (指代) ___________.A. BertieB. butterflyC. the White HorseD. the white lion9. The correct time order of the events about the story is ___________.a. The lion died and Bertie was sad.b. Butterflies flew to the chalk face.c. Bertie decided to carve the lion on the hillside.d. Bertie and Millie spent all the spare time carving.A. a-c-d-bB. a-d-b-cC. d-a-b-cD. c-b-a-dDAlmost no one can refuse a good mystery novel or detective novel, so these novels sell thousands of copies each year. And many readers see famous mystery author Agatha Christie as Queen of Crime, whose stories are known for their tense environment and strong excitement and anxiety for readers and also have a great influence on the English mystery novels.Christie was born in September 1890 in England. When she was growing up, her mother often told her stories. Christie loved these stories, which took her into a world of fantasy. Chris tie’s mother also encouraged her to write from a young age and also took her to travel a lot.She married Archie Christie in 1914 at the beginning of World War I. During the war, Christie wrote her firstdetective story: The Mysterious Affair at Styles. She chose the crime, and then invented a detective named Hercule Poirot, taking a position second to Sherlock Holmes, to solve it. She sent the book to a publisher, but it was refused.After the war ended, Christie sent her book to more publishers, and finally, in 1920, one published it. She made just $25 for it. Over the next few years, Christie wrote more books and short stories, gaining experience as a writer. In spite of (尽管) her literary success, life was not going well at home. In 1928, Archie and Agatha separated. A short time later, she met a young man named Max Mallowan. After getting married in 1930, they began to spend some time each year in the Middle East, which provided settings for some of Christies novels, such as Murder at the Vicarage (1930), Murder on the Orient Express (1934) and Death on the Nile (1939).Christie continued writing for the rest of her life. When she died in January 1976, readers around the world felt sad about her death. But her stories of mystery continue to be loved by new readers. They’ve been translated into hundreds of languages and are selling well today and outsold only by the Bible and Shakespeare in Britain.10. What do we know about Hercule Poirot?A. He was better known than Sherlock Holmes.B. He made Christie become famous.C. He was a master at solving crimes.D. He was the only main character in the novel.11. From the underlined sentence “outsold only by the Bible and Shakespeare in Britain”, we can learn that______.A. the Bible helps her works to sell in BritainB. the sales of her works take the third position in BritainC. the works of Shakespeare don’t sell better than hers in BritainD. their sales are equally good in Britain12.Which is the right order for what Agatha Christie experienced?①She had her first detective novel published.②She finished The Mysterious Affair at Styles.③Her mother encouraged her to write.④Her marriage to Archie ended.⑤She got to be known for her literary success.A.③②④①⑤B.③①②⑤④C. ③②①⑤④D.③②①④⑤13. What can we infer from the reading?A. Agatha Christie was born to have a gift for writing crime.B. Agatha Christie’s novels are popular among readers around the world.C. Agatha Christie ended with her first husband because she succeeded in literary.D. Agatha Christie is certainly the greatest woman writer in the world.三、阅读填空Though times have changed, falling asleep in class is still very common among teenagers.Why do students sometimes fall asleep in class? An important reason is that they don’t have enough sleep. However, there are also causes for getting too little sleep.Homework is a daily job for most students, one that can take three to four hours per night. A teenager who wants to be able to take part in any activity besides homework must stay up late to fit everything in. Club activities, sports, computer-game playing, and TV viewing, for example, all make teens have less time for both homework and sleep. Sometimes teens don’t have enough sleep because of after-school jobs that are taken on to make extra money for college, family costs, or just for clothes.Physical problems are another reason that make students fall asleep in class. For example, insomnia, which may keep a student up at night, making students tired during class hours, is a serious problem that may requiremedical care.Falling asleep in class can cause quite serious results. First of all, sleeping in class is not welcomed in school. What’s more, it is highly possible that other students may make jokes about those who sleep in class. However, the most harmful result of sleeping in class is missing out on important points. In the long run, sleepers may end up failing classes.Since teens are probably not going to deal with the problem, falling asleep in class will probably remain an all-too-common problem. It will continue until more teens find a way to balance their personal and social lives_________ (1) Times have changed, but falling asleep in class is still quite common.Causes◆To ____________ (2) doing their homework, students may have to work three to four hoursevery night.◆To balance homework with activities, students may stay up late.◆To spare time for after-school jobs, students may not have enough time to sleep.◆Insomnia may ____________ (3) students falling asleep at night.Results◆Students sleeping in class may not be loved by their teachers.◆Students who sleep in class run the ___________ (4) of being laughed at.◆Students who sleep too much in class may miss out on important knowledge and ____________(5) in their study.Conclusion The problem will not be solved until teenagers can manage their lives and deal with their school and work.树立自我保护意识,健康快乐地成长是每个青少年的必修课。

Schools spokesman Michael cave declared plans yesterday to give disadvantaged children more classroom time to help them catch up. Longer school days also be popular with parents who struggle to fit 3pm school finishing times around work, he said.MrGoye gave out the success of a U.S.plan where teenagers from poor backgrounds attend school from 7.30 am to 5pm." I believe that having children in school for longer, particularly if they come from disadvantaged backgrounds can help them to achieve more in academy," he told the annual conference of the Association of Teachers and Lecturers in Manchester. He pointed out that it was up to schools alone to decide whether to open longer, or at weekends. But he was greeted with laughter from delegates(代表)when he said the plan would really work only with the active support of teachers.ATL general secretary, Dr Mary Bousted, said," The last thing we need to be doing at the present time is increasing teachers' working hours. Teachers already work the most unpaid overtime of any public sector profession. If wewant Saturday schools then we need more teachers doing the extra hours, not the same teachers working longer and becoming tired.”Meanwhie Mr Gove's idea is likely to alarm those concerned about the erosion(侵蚀)of family time. Mariaret Morrisey, founder of the lob by group Parents Outloud, said,“ What we should be doing is supporting these children within the school week.1.What's the main idea of Paragraph 1?A.

Everyone in motor racing has a simple dream: to go faster! In the early days a small number of people raced each other driving unsafe machine on ordinary roads. Today, motor racing is a huge moneymaking industry. Thousands of people are involved. Drivers, mechanics, designers, engineers and technicians (技术员) work hard in the search for extra speed.Cars race along twisting (弯曲的) roads or on round tracks. They race across ice and snow, as well as sandy deserts. Mud, dust, grass and steep (陡峭的) hills are all part of today’s range (赛场) of racing events. Hundreds of thousands of people turn up to watch races. Millions more people watch the events on television. Top driversare celebrities and make huge amounts of money.Of course, these drivers don’t get to the top overnight. Everyone has to start somewhere. Most drivers lean to race in go-carts (微型赛车) familiar with race rules and what to do in an emergency. Formula Ford is one of the race classes for beginners. Many top Formula 1 world champions (冠军) like Nigel Mansell, Michael Schumacher and Mika Hakkinen began by Formula Ford racing.The Italian company Ferrari makes some of the world’s best racing cars, all painted in its world-famous red colour. Ferrari is the most successful builder of Formula 1 cars. Ferrari prides itself on building the whole machine — the body as well as the engine. Some companies, such as Honda, only make engines for Formula 1 racing.Motor racing is expensive. Racing teams need huge amounts of money to keep their cars on the racetrack. Sponsorship (赞助) is an important way of making money for racing teams. The logos (标志) of the sponsors (赞助者) are all over racing cars. The bigger the logo, the more the company will have to pay to the racing team.1. What does the underlined word “celebrities”in the third paragraph mean?A. ManagersB. Rich businessmenC. well-known peopleD. Excellent engineers2. What can we infer from the first two paragraphs?A. Drivers drive their cars at a limited speed.B. The goal of motor racing remains the same.C. Nowadays motor racing kills a lot of people.D. Motor racing remains what it was 100 years ago.3. What does the underlined sentence in the fourth paragraph suggest?A. It is expensive to buy a racing car.B. Top drivers must learn to repair the car.C. It is not easy for the driver to drive at night.D. Drivers have to try very hard to become top ones.4. Which of the following can be the best title of this article?A. Top DriversB. Extra SpeedC. Motor RacingD. The Need for Speed【答案】CBDC三、任务型阅读Hi Geoff,Don’t be surprised by what I’m going to tell you. Last week, I be came a parent! Calm down, Geoff. This was only a project we did at school, but let me explain.Every week, our teacher gives us a new topic to discuss in class. Last Monday, however, he asked us a very interesting question —“Do you think it is difficult t o be a parent?” Some of the students said they thought it waseasy, as parents never have to do any homework! Our teacher said he wouldn’t tell us the answer. He said he would let us be “a parent” for a week. He was sure we would have the answer by the end of the week.The rest of the lesson was spent making flour babies. We first took some bags and filled them with flour (面粉) in order to make the “babies” as heavy as real ones. We then tied the bags very tight, so the flour would not fall out. After that, we used cardboard (纸板) to make some arms, legs and a face for our flour babies, and then dressed them in old pieces of clothing. My baby looked so strange, as I am not very good at art, but it was great fun.When we had finished, our teacher gave us all notebooks and told us we had to write down our experience with the babies for the whole week. We were told we had to carry them round with us every day, and look after them like real babies! That was really difficult. For example, one of my friends has quite a bad memory, and left his flour baby on the bus by accident. Another of my friends carried the baby upside down (we are supposed to carry them like real babies, with our arms under their “necks” at all times.)We also had to take the flour babies home with us, as well. My parents found it quite funny, as I was supposed to feed the baby in the evening, and then get it ready for bed. After doing that and finishing my homework, there was no time to chat with my friends on the phone, nor watch my favorite television programmes.Every evening, I was so tired that I fell asleep very quickly. Yet only a few hours later my alarm clock woke me up. For that week, I had to get up three times every night to feed the flour baby! In the end, I got so little sleep that I had black bags under my eyes.It was a difficult time, but now the project is finished. I feel I have learnt that it is not easy to be a responsible (负责任的) parent. I think it also gave me a new perspective (观点) on what my parents have done for me.Let me know your news and hope to hear from you soon.All the bestRick牛津译林九年级下册阅读能力提升练习(包含答案)1.

But there may be a much simpler way of cheering yourself up... simply shining a bright light into your ear canal.Up to one in four Britons suffer from seasonal affective disorder, with seven per cent of the population having full-blown SAD. It is caused by the brain not receiving enough daylight which is needed to trigger serotonin(血清素), a hormone(荷尔蒙)that regulates mood. Symptoms range from mild lethargy (乏力)to depression and insomnia, but a cure might be in sight.Two clinical trials, run by Valkee - who make a device that can shine light into your ear - and the University of Oulu in Finland, have found that carefully targeted light can help prevent the condition.Juuso Nissilä, Valkee's co-founder and chief scientist said: “We presented earlier that the human brain is sensitive to light”. “These two clinical trials demonstrate that channeling bright light via ear canal into brain's photosensitive areas effectively prevents and treats seasonal affective disorder.”The University of Oulu reported that in their first study, 92 per cent of the patients with seasonal affective disorder achieved full remission(缓解)after a month of daily eight-to-12 minute doses(剂量)of light from the Valkee.Timo Takala, chief physician(医生)at the Oulu Deaconess Institute said: “These two trials show that bright light channeled into the brain via ear canal is an important future method to treat seasonal affective disorder.”Valkee launched(发行)its bright light headset in August 2010. It is classed as a medical device under EU regulations.The device channels bright light direct to the brain via the ear canal to prevent and cure depression, mood swings(摇摆)and even circadian-rhythm disorders(昼夜节律失调) such as jet lag(时差感).It costs £185 and looks like an iPod - only the earphones emit lightrather than sound.Anyone wanting to copy the effects with a flashlight is likely to be disappointed, it emits the wrong kind of light that is apparently too yellow.1.What can be inferred from the first two paragraphs?A. Light as well as sound is essential for curing SAD.B. Receiving enough daylight makes for a good mood.C. There’s a lon g way to go for curing SAD thoroughly.D. The number of Britons having SAD continues growing.2. which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.Shinning a bright light into your ear canal is the only way to treat SADB.The device can help one to recover from all physical problems.C.You might not suffer from jet lag if you wear a bright light headset.D.A flashlight can work exactly as the bright light headset.3.What can be the best title of the passage?A.Shine a light in your ear — brighten your mood in winterB.Keep the sunshine in your heart — enjoy a colorful lifeC.The most efficient way to prevent and cure SADD.The harmful effects caused by SAD【答案】B C AC"Face it,Andy.You sold your soul the day you put on that first pair of Jimmy C hoo's."That line from the movie The Devil Wears Prada is an example showing how a shoemaker has become famous in the fashion world.Jimmy Choo (Zhou Yangjie) is a native Malaysian of Chinese origin ,born in 1961into a family of shoemakers.He created his first pair of shoes at age 11.His fa mily couldn't pay for his schooling,so he dropped out at a young age.He had to work with his father to support the family.But his dream to be a fashion designer never di sappeared,so he did all he could to enter an art college and finally took up a position i n the fashion world through his talent and willpower.Choo graduated from a college in London and had a small workshop there.He hit the international fashion scene when Vogue magazine described his designs in eight pages in 1988.His work was immediately popular and got love and support from Diana,Princess of Wales.Jimmy Choo shoes are known for their very high heels and pointed toes.Howev er,he does some flats and lower-heeled shoes for other women.Choo co-founded Jim my Choo Ltd.with Tamara Mellon,UK Vogue editor, but left the company in 2001.Jimmy Choo shops have opened around the world,so his designs are more acces sible to those who want a designer shoe,and can afford his prices.Choo also has a web site where shoppers can view his ready-to-wear designs.The brand of Jimmy Choo has been comparable to top brands,like Channel,LV,etc.But it's still young and has a bright future.We can't imagine how hard it is for Choo to stand out in the worldwide fashion!

One expert says that depression is like cancer because it is “widespread, costly and deadly”. Depression hits one person in five around the world. Over any six-month period, between five to seven percent of the world's population will be suffering from a serious depression.A recent research shows that the more teenagers watch television, the more likely they are to develop depression as young adults.The researchers used a nationwide long-term survey of teenage health to investigate(调查) the relationship between media(传播媒介) use and depression. They based their findings on more than four thousand teenagers who were not depressed when the survey began in 2000.As part of the survey, the young people were asked how many hours of television or videos they watched daily. They were also asked how often they played computer games and listened to the radio. Media use totaled an average of five and one-half hours a day. More than two hours of that was spent watching TV.Seven years later, in 2007, more than seven percent of the young people had signs of depression. The average age at that time was twenty-one.The researchers say they did not find any such relationship with the use of other media such as movies, video games of radio etc. But the study did find that every extra hour of television meant an eight percent increase in the chances of developing signs of depression. Young men were more likely than young women to develop depression given the same amount of media use.The study didn’t explore if watching TV causes depression. But one possibility is that it was taking time away from activities that could help prevent depression.Last December, the journal Social Indicators Research published a study of activities that help lead to happy lives. Sociologists from the University of Maryland found that people who describe themselves as happy spend less time watching television than unhappy people. The study found that happy people are more likely to be socially active, to read, to take part in religious services and to vote.1. The survey shows that of all the media uses.A. most teenagers prefer to listen to the radioB. teenagers enjoy watching TV very muchC. computer games are teenagers’ favouriteD. magazines are mentioned in the survey2.The result of the research seems to prove .。
