For several years，Americans have enjoyed teleshopping－watching TV and buying things by phone. Now teleshopping is starting in Europe. In a number of European countries，people can turn on their TVs and shop for clothes，jewelry，food，toys，and many other things. Teleshopping is becoming popular in Sweden，for example. The biggest Swedish company sells different kinds of things on TV in 15 European countries，and in one year it made $100 million. In France there are two teleshopping channels，and the French spend about $20 million a year to buy things through those channels. In Germany，until last year teleshopping was only possible on one channel for 1 hour every day. Then the government allowed more teleshopping. Other channels can open for telebusiness，including the largest American teleshopping company and a 24-hour teleshopping company. German businesses are hoping this new teleshopping will help them sell more things. Some people like teleshopping because it allows them to do their shopping without leaving their homes. With all the problems of traffic in the cities，this is an important reason. But at the same time，other Europeans do not like this new way of shopping. They can do teleshopping "junk on the air". Many Europeans usually worry about the quality of the things for sale on TV. Good quality is important to them，and they believe they cannot be sure about the quality of the things on TV. The need for high quality means that European teleshopping companies will have to be different from the American companies. They will have to be more careful about the quality of the things they sell. They will also have to work harder to sell things that the buyers cannot touch or see in person.

A new study suggests that the more teenagers watch television, the more likely they

are to develop depression as young adults. But the extent to which TV may or may not be to blame is a question that the study leaves unanswered. The researchers used a

national long-term survey of adolescent health to investigate the relationship between

media use and depression. They based their findings on more than four thousand

adolescents who were not depressed when the survey began in 1995. 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 5.5 hours a day. More than 2

hours of that was spent watching TV. Seven years later, in 2002, more than 7 percent

of the young people had signs of depression. The average age at that time was 21.

Brian Primack at the University of Pittsburgh medical school was the lead author of the new study. He says every extra hour of television meant an 8 percent increase in the

chances of developing signs of depression. The researchers say they did not find any

such relationship with the use of other media such as movies, video games or radio.

But the study did find that young men were more likely than young women to develop

depression, given the same amount of media use. Doctor Primack says the study did

not explore if watching TV causes depression. But one possibility, he says, is that it

may take time away from activities that could help prevent depression, like sports and

socializing. It might also interfere with sleep, he says, and that could have an influence.

1. According to the passage, the researchers have found

________________________.

所选答案： C. the relationship between depression and the use of all forms of

media

Do you forget to turn off the lights and heaters when you go out of a room? In 2040 it

will not matter. They will turn themselves off and on again when you return. A sensor

will detect the presence of a human and turn the systems on, and when the humans

leave it will turn them off again. The sensors will work through the central home

computer, and they will do much more than just turn the fires and lights on and off for

you. They will detect faulty electrical appliances, isolate them so that they cannot harm anyone, and then warn you that they need repair. They will detect fire and if you are

out of the house, the computer will call the firemen. It will also call the police, should

the sensors detect an intruder（非法闯入者）. You will open the door using your

personal card--the one you use for shopping--maybe using a number known only to

you.

How men first learnt to invent words is unknown; in other words, the origin of language is a mystery. All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thought and feelings, actions and things, so that they could

communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called

letters, which could be combined to present those sounds, and which could be written

down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words. The power of words, then, lies in their associations - the things they bring up before our minds.

Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the

more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past; and the more we

read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something increases. Great

writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming and telling

use of words is what we call literary style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words.

He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our

words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and vulgar.

所选答案： D. a problem not yet solved
