An Effective Approach to Depressive Disorder

No one can be happy and cheerful forever. So i t’s important they see a mental-health __31__ who can provide effective options for treatment when someone has clinical depression known as the state of feeling very sad, anxious and without hope. But there’s also a condition known as subthreshold depression in which someone __32__ some symptoms of depressive disorder, but not enough for a clinical diagnosis.

It’s estimated that between 10% and 24% of the population has this kind of mild depression at some point in their lives. And for those people, a new study suggests that practicing thinking __33__ in silence may help improve their mood and reduce their risk of developing depression. The study, published in the Annals of Family Medicine, __34__ yet another reason why deep thinking may be good for both physical and mental health.

The study included 231 Chinese adults with subthreshold depression, meaning their __35__ between five and nine out of a total of 27 points on a standard depression __36__. Half received mindfulness training two hours a week for eight weeks, while the other half continued to receive their usual medical care.

During the mindfulness training, participants were instructed on setting short- and long-term goals; __37__ their activity and mood; planning out their activities; and body scanning. They were asked to practice them at home at least six days a week.

These techniques combine traditional deep thinking with __38__ activation, a type of therapy that uses an “outside in” approach to help people change the way they act and aims to increase rewarding experiences in their lives. It has been shown to be effective for moderate to severe depression in other studies, and the researchers wanted to know if it would work as a __39__ measure as well.

At the end of those eight weeks, the group that received mindfulness training reported a significant decrease in depression and __40__ symptoms compared to the group that did not. And no participants had developed clinical depression.

III. Reading Comprehension

Section A

Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.

For years, life went something like this: We’d grow up in one place, head off to college, then find a city to live in for a few years to pursue a job or higher education. The end goal was to find somewhere to

__41__ for the long trip, buy a house, make a few friends, start a family,

and begin the whole __42__ all over again.

But a new model for living is emerging: Some people are

increasingly choosing to move from city to city throughout their entire

lives, sometimes as __43__ as every month.

Just ask Alex Chatzielefteriou, who has had a front-row seat

watching this evolution __44__ and believes in the huge impact it is

making or will make on the industry concerned. Six years ago, he __45__ a startup which is now called Blueground that rents out beautifully-designed, __46__ apartments for a month at a time, at rates that are cheaper than hotels. Today, the company has 3,000 __47__ in six U.S. cities, along with Dubai, Istanbul, London, Paris, and Alex’s native Athens, and a staff of 400.The company just __48__ $50 million in Series B funding, bringing its total investment to $78 million, to continue its rapid __49__. It hopes to have 50,000 estates in 50 cities over the next three years, and the goal is to make each one feel unique and comfortable, rather than __50__, like what you might find in a traditional hotel.

Alex first came up with the idea for Blueground while he was working as a management consultant for McKinsey. “The __51__ of choice for consultants is the hotel,” he says. “I had to spend five years in a hotel room, __52__ in twelve different cities. I loved seeing the world, but I didn’t love feeling like I didn’t have a home.” As he spoke to his friends and coworkers, he realized that many people buried themselves in __53__ due to this drifting lifestyle that meant living out of a suitcase in the same few non-descript hotel chains that all began to mix together rather than in the “home” full of their own memories.

__54__, Alex found that hotels aren’t a particularly cost-effective solution for companies, either. __55__, McKinsey sometimes paid $10,000 or more for him to stay in a major city for a month, which was far more expensive than local rents.

Is this new living model something that will really take off? Or is it just another flash in the pan? Let’s wait and see.

Section B

Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.

(A)

We’ve all heard the stories of an actor’s struggles before a career breakthrough: living a hard life, working part time, being a couch potato before getting that major role. Shelby, the star of “A Dog’s Way Home,” has a hard-luck tale that could top them all. Before her big break, she was living in a landfill, rooting through garbage for her next meal.

Shelby’s big break came in April 2017, when animal-control officer Megan Buhler was driving in Cheatham County, Tennessee. Out on an unrelated call, Buhler spotted and approached what she recalled was a noticeably scared puppy emerging from the dump. “I knelt down and just said, ‘Oh, come here, baby,’ ” said Buhler. “She was so scared, but she came right up to me, and I was able to put her in my truck.” The pair headed to the county animal shelter, where the staff began calling the new resident Baby Girl.

Buhler and others didn’t know that 3,200 kilometers away, Hollywood was looking for a dog to play Bella in a film written by Cathryn Michon. The find-a-Bella job went to freelance trainer Teresa Ann Miller. Her mission was to search shelters nationwide for a dog that could play Bella. One day, Miller spotted Baby Girl’s adoption photo. “Honestly, it was a really good picture, and she was fl at-out smiling,” Miller said. Then she met Baby Girl, and assessed her on personality and the ability to respond to simple commands. After assessment, she adopted Baby Girl from the shelter, renamed her Shelby and took her to California for training. Miller and Shelby trained for just over three months before filming began. Then they were together each day on the set.

Most of the film’s reviews have praised Shelby’s performance. Variety made the comments “an amazing dog, perfect performance!”

Shelby has come a long way from the dump. But Buhler said she saw Shelby recently and needed only a second to compare the movie star with the dog she found from piles of trash. “She’s exactly the same,” Buhler said.

56. Why does the author mention an actor’s struggle be fore a career breakthrough at the very beginning?

A. To make a sharp contrast between an actor’s struggle and a dog’s struggle.

B. To introduce a dog’s similar but even more striking experiences.

C. To attract readers’ attention by giving dramatic examples.

D. To clearly point out the main idea of the passage.

57. What finally helped Baby Girl get the big role in the film?

A. Her adoption picture.

B. Her flat-out smiling.

C. Her personality and ability.

D. Her miserable experiences.

58. By saying “She’s is exactly the same” in the last paragraph, Buhler probably means ______.

A. the dog returned to the piles of trash where she found it

B. it took quite a lot of trouble for the dog to change her own fate

C. s he’s really excited to see the dog she h elped live such a happy life

D. the dramatic change of the dog’s life hasn’t changed her inner quality

59. What do you think may serve as the best title of the passage?

A. The Success of “A Dog’s Way Home”.

B. From a Landfill Puppy to a Movie Star.

C. The Trainer and Her Star Dog.

D. Shelby’s Hard-luck Story.

(B)

Tips for Taking Online Classes

If you’re considering taking online college courses, the tips and advice below can help you address their unique challenges to get the most value out of your online program.

1. Hold yourself accountable

Without professors actively reminding you, it’s up to you to make sure you’ve set aside enough time to complete assigned work. If you’re having trouble holding yourself accountable, pair up with a fellow classmate. By being organized and self-aware, you can get the most from your online class.

2. Practice time management.

The flexibility to create your own schedule is often one of the biggest appeals of taking online classes. But that freedom can also be detrimental if you do not have solid time management skills. Without them, you might find yourself cramming before classes or handing in poor-quality assignments.

Make note of major assignments. Mark them on a calendar you check regularly so you know what workload is coming in the weeks ahead.

Create a weekly schedule that you follow, designating certain hours each week to reading, watching lectures, completing assignments, studying, and participating in forums.

When working on your assignments, try time-blocking, distributing yourself a certain amount of time for each task before moving on to the next one and setting a timer to keep you accountable.

3. Eliminate distractions

Regardless of where you choose to work, consider turning your cell phone off to avoid losing focus every time a text message or notification pops up. And if you’re still having trouble resisting the temptation to check your email or surf the web, try downloading a website blocker. Using applications like Cold Turkey and Freedom can help eliminate distractions by blocking the apps or websites that tend to compete for your attention, such as Facebook and Twitter.

Online classes are an excellent option to help you earn that degree you need to fulfill your goals such as job promotion. Though they come with their own unique challenges, following the advice above can help you be successful even in the most chaotic of times.

60. Which of the following ways keeps you from holding yourself accountable?

A. Surfing websites that compete for your attention.

B. Writing down schedules regularly on a calendar.

C. Setting a timer for the task being completed.

D. Finding a classmate for mutual supervision.

61. How can you eliminate distractions when having online classes?

A. By ignoring notification that pops up.

B. By downloading a website blocker.

C. By avoiding losing focus.

D. By trying time-blocking.

62. It can be inferred from the passage that ______.

A. a website blocker is used for effectively filtering useless websites

B. making note of assignments helps you figure out what workload comes first

C. weekly schedule involves designating certain hours to different daily routines

D. time management skills help you optimize the flexibility to create your schedule

(C)

The poet Lovelle Drachman once said, “blessed are the curious, for they shall have adventures.”, which is certainly true of people with wanderlust.

‘Wanderlust’ is derived from a German word meaning ‘a love of hiking’ and now used to describe the burning desire to escape the everyday and explore the unfamiliar. Wanderlust is a common, but not universal experience. What makes some people catch that travel bug while others are apparently unaffected?

One theory is to do with our genes. Scientific research has identified a variant of the DRD4 gene that affects sensitivity to dopamine(多巴胺), the neuro-transmitter often released in the brain when we do something we enjoy. Actually, it’s not that the 7R ve rsion of the DRD4 specifically creates a thirst for travel, but people with the 7R variant are less sensitive to that delicious dopamine hit.

So simple things that bring other people pleasure, like a jog in the park or a cheeky chocolate treat, might not cut it for them, which makes those with the 7R type of the DRD4 gene more likely to be risk takers to get increased dopamine levels. That’s why DRD4-7R has been called the wanderlust gene. Other researches have also linked the same 7R variant to far riskier behaviours, such as addiction and offensive behaviour. By comparison, the strong sudden desire to go travelling seems like the better end of the Theory of Evolution.

But another theory looks at the psychology of living in our inter-connected human society, one in which we are constantly aware of what friends and social media influencers are doing and keep comparing ourselves to them in two distinct ways. Upwards social comparisons, comparing ourselves to those we see as more successful than us. And downward social comparisons, comparing ourselves to those we see as worse off than us. In the age of social media, it’s very easy to compare ourselves unfavourably with the idealized version. How can we compete with influencers, with their perfectly dark brown legs on neat and clean white sand, and their once in a lifetime sunsets over Machu Picchu?

Whether the motivation to explore the world is genetic, psychological or something else, there are far more harmful hobbies than the desire to explore the world. Venturing outside your comfort zone, to learn about new cultures, meet people you might otherwise never have had the chance to meet, and finally, learn who you are in different situations. Sounds like a life well-lived. As the novelist Jack Kerouac said, “Becau se in the end, you won’t remember the time you spent in the office or mowing your lawn. Climb that goddamn mountain. ”

63. The underlined phrases “catch that travel bug” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ______.

A. be crazy about travelling

B. be curious about travelling

C. escape daily life by travelling

D. experience common travelling

64. Why are people with the 7R type of the DRD4 gene more likely to have wanderlust?

A. Because they are more fascinated by risks and unfamiliar things.

B. Because the 7R variant cause them to be less sensitive to dopamine hit.

C. Because they have comparatively higher level of dopamine than other people.

D. Because the 7R variant, also called wanderlust gene, helps create a craving for travelling.

65. The author will probably agree to the statement that ______.

A. a well-lived life doesn’t involve venturing outside comfortable zone

B. the 7R variant is inevitably linked with some more risky behavior such as addiction

C. people tend to forget their daily routine, but adventures really leave footprints in their hearts

D. when people compare themselves with less successful ones, it may give rise to mixed feelings

66. What does the passage mainly talk about?

A. Wanderlust and its two main categories.

B. A less harmful hobby and analysis of its different causes.

C. The distinctions between gene variants and social comparisons.

D. Physical and psychological reasons for the desire to explore the world.

Section C

Directions: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.

Instructor-centered or Learner-centered?

Whether in the East or West, the chief business of traditional education is to pass to the next generation the skills, facts, and standards of moral and social conduct that adults consider to be necessary for the next generation’s material and social succe ss.

__67__ The students work individually on assignments, and cooperation is discouraged. The result of this emphasis on what instructors do is that students may become passive learners and do not take responsibility for their own learning. Educators call this traditional method “instructor-centered teaching”.

In contrast, “learner-centered teaching” occurs when instructors focus on student learning. It is an approach to teaching that is increasingly being encouraged in higher education. __68__ These methods include active learning, in which students solve problems, answer questions, formulate questions of their own, discuss, explain, debate, or brainstorm during class; cooperative learning, in which students work in teams on problems and projects under conditions that assure both positive interdependence and individual account ability; and inductive (归纳法) teaching and learning, in which students are first presented with challenges and learn the course material in the context of addressing the challenges.

Although learner-centered methods have repeatedly been shown to be superior to the traditional teacher-centered approach to instruction, the best teaching, according to Parker Palmer, the author of The Courage to Teach, is not one or the other, but a combination of both. __69__

Learner-centered teachers still need to lecture because teachers are the definitive content experts in the classroom and the knowledge and experiences of teachers can be extremely helpful to students. __70__ They must recognize that students can learn from each other and that the deepest learning happens when students have the opportunity to practice and obtain feedback.

IV. Summary Writing

Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.

71.Coco-Cola’s Innovative Solution to Plastic Pollution

Plastic pollution has become one of the most pressing problems of the 21st Century with plastic waste almost everywhere. It is estimated that just in 2016, the world produced over 320 million tons of plastic, and this number is set to double by 2034.

Plastic waste even makes its way into our oceans with 8 million pieces of plastic pollution per day polluting our waters and destroying the habitat for hundreds of species. It is now believed that there may be around 5.25 trillion pieces of plastic in the ocean weighing in total up to 269,000 tons.

It’s been crystal clear for a long time that the situation is horrible and something needs to be done, and fast. Luckily, Coca-Cola stepped up to the challenge and came up with one innovative and rather effective solution. The firm is replacing its plastic wrapping in Europe with a new paper board technology.

This new tech is called the KeelClip and it is a first for the non-alcohol ready-to-drink (NARTD) industry. Using KeelClips, Coca-Cola aims to remove all plastic wrap from its can multipacks in all European Union markets by the end of 2021. The firm is optimistic that the move will save 2,000 tons of plastic and 3,000 tons of CO2 annually.

“Innovation is a key principle of our sustainable packaging work and the application of this fully recyclable paperboard KeelClip?, which is composed of a top board that the cans clip into and a central cardboard ‘keel’ -- similar to a ship’s keel -- that stabilizes the pack, is another example of how we are delivering on our commitment to remove all unnecessary and hard to recycle single-use plastic from our products. We hope this eco-friendly initiative is a conscious approach to dealing with plastic pollution,” said Joe Franses, Vice President, Sustainability at Coca-Cola European Partners.

I’m interested in driving and would love to attend driving classes with you. If you wonder why I choose driving classes instead of second foreign language, below are my reasons. To begin with, after three years’ hard study in academic subjects, it’s high time that we try something different. Language learning is nothing different, given that we have already learned English for years. Driving is not necessarily easier than our studying at school, but it’s a good way to relieve us from the intense atmosphere. Next, if we are talented enough and make as much effort as we do with our academic study, we will able to get the driving license within one month, or even sooner. Thus we shall have almost 2 months left in the summer vacation, for other plans like traveling, speaking of which, here come the last point. How nice would it be if we can arrange a self-driving tour one or two weeks before the university enrollment. It will be an exciting and unforgettable experience for us. Looking forward to your reply!

Outside in the sunshine, I kicked off my shoes and danced barefoot across a spring-green lawn. I love spring. And this year, I was especially hungry to see it. Flying home last weekend to Las Vegas, after 10 days in California, I looked down on hills that were so green that I (24) almost taste them. When I approached Vegas, the green turned a dull desert brown.We landed after sunset, and the only green to be seen was neon(霓虹灯).

For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank. My head was so full of digital noise (21) _______ it felt like my brain was about to explode. I had no greater power of concentration than a goldfish and the lifeless stare of a goldfish as well. As a writer, I was ashamed to admit that my love of books had been weakened by a brain that simply could not sit still. So, at the start of this year I committed to restoring books to the place that they held in my life before the Internet broke my brain. My goal was 52 books: It seemed like an impossible task. A 400-page book will take the average person around eight hours to read. Finding the time to read was a challenge but here’s how I did it. Firstly, I decided to treat my mind like a child (22) _______ (behave) badly and lay down some ground rules. Then I decided that I (23) _______ (read) for an hour or two at a time (24) _______ distraction each day. It was something I hadn’t done in years and it was scary (25) _______ difficu lt it was.

And this is what I found. Again and again, I would gently bring myself back to the page, resisting the urge(27) _______ (reach ) for that screen. I took inspiration from Nikki Gemmell, who describes in On Quiet, how investing in a safe to lock away her family’s devices for long periods had opened up a space for deep ref lection. For me, finding that quiet time meant finding time in my day just to read. It was a date between me and my book. And it meant actively choosing to read at times (28) _______ I ordinarily would reach for my phone. I read on the tram, at the park, in red at night and on lunch breaks. (29) _______ (renew) my love affair with books, I created a sacred space where I pressed pause and found inspiration, knowledge and reflection. In our modern world, reading for the sake of reading is not selfish. It is a powerful and beneficial way to slow down and be(30) _______. III.

Miss World, Miss Universe, Miss International and Miss Earth are known as the Big Four beauty pageants, and all of them continue to this day. These competitions 32 young women on their physical attractiveness, of course, but they also are judged on their personality, intelligence, talent, and responses to interview-based questions. The eventual winners receive prizes including cash, scholarships, clothes, beauty queen crowns, and of course, the title of the event for one year. All these awards do not come cheap for the young ladies. They have duties to fulfill while holding their titles. Beauty queens often appear at functions to raise social awareness about environmental and social issues such as nature 33 , racial or gender discrimination, and disease prevention. By projecting the image of a well-educated, respectable character 34 with a successful personality,
