holiday desserts,which wereusually considered to help people feel relieved.However,if now you are in the samesituation,you will only say to them for indeed its absolutely absurd.Recently,a new study from a team of clinical psychologists at the University of Kansassuggests that added sugar can cause inflammation（发炎）and processes of metabolism andnerve system,all of which are tied to depressive illness.Coupled with decreasing light inwintertime and related changes in sleep patterns,high sugar consumption could result innegative effects on mental health,according to the researchers.The researchers found that inflammation is the key physiological effect of dietary sugar relatedto mental health.nA large number of people with depression have high levels of systemicinflammation,said Stephen Ilardi,a coauthor of the study.When we think aboutinflammatory disease,we think about diabetes,a disease with a high level of systemicinflammation.We dont normally think about depression included in that,but it is-not foreveryone whos depressed,but for about half.We also know that inflammatory hormones candirely push the brain into a severe depression.An inflamed brain is typically a depressedbrain.And added sugars cause inflammation to the body and brain.,The problem is worse this time of year.nFor many people,reduced sunlight exposure during thewinter will disturb biological rhythms,disrupting healthy sleep and pushing 5 to 10 percent ofthe population into a fully clinical depression,Ilardi says.8.What kind of emotion do the underlined words bah humbug“express in

dietary sugar results in depression.C.To draw a conclusion that inflammatory disease can cause diabetes.D.To give more details about the possible results of mental depression.11.What does the text mainly talk about?第4页，共21页A.The importance of mental health.B.The damage to mental health from sugar.C.The sugar treatment for depression.D.The number of people with depression.DYou*ve probably heard that you need to move more throughout the day,and as a general rule ofthumb,more is often defined as around 10,000 steps.Many people use the 10,000-step ruleas their marker for healthy living.As more people track their steps by fitness-tracking wearableor their iPhones,more of them do that.But while sitting less is a great idea,the step rule isnt as black and white as one number.Dr.Creg Hager,professor at Johns Hopkins,decided to take a closer look at whether the step ruleis accurate,and he found asking everyone to shoot for 10,000 steps each day could be harmfulto the elderly,or the level of exercise could make it unwise for those with medicalconditions.He also noted that those with shorter legs have an easier time hitting the 10,000-step goal because they have to take more steps than loge-egged people to cover thedistance.How many steps can help keep healthy and promote longevity（长寿）on earth?Researchers found that women taking 4,400 steps per day were about 40%less likely to dieduring a follow-up period of just over four years,compared to those who took 2,700steps.Women in the study who walked more than 7，500 steps each day got no extra inlongevity.The bottom line is that 10,000 steps may be too many for some and too few forothers.Some of that has to do with age but nothing to do with health and longevity.The studyincluded nearly 17,000 women with an average age of 72.The point of these studies isnt to say we should abandon step goals and fitness trackersaltogether.The key is finding the step goal that matches your individual health according toyour doctor or fitness instructor,and then using your fitness tracker and other proper methods tohelp achieve those goals.12.What do people usually take as their standard of healthy living?A.The 10,000-step rule.B.The fitness tracking wearables.C.The level of exercise.D.The point of these studies.13.Which best describes Dr.Greg Hagers attitude towards the step rule?A.Optimistic.B.Negative.C.Skeptical.D.Favorable.14.What did the researchers find?A.Following 10,000 steps each day could be harmful to the elderly.B.Taking steps may not be directly related to peoples longevity.C.Walking during the day is closely linked to the death of the elderly.D.Older women with an average age of 72 in the study lived longer.15.What might the passage say next?A.The approaches to these goals.B.The step goals with abandon.C.The health for individuals.D.The secret of longevity.As the family of 16 Asian elephants started moving north,no one knew where they wereheading,or why.At first,no one thought much about it.Elephants sometimes disappear beyondXishuangbanna National Nature Reserve in southwestern Chinas Yunnan Province,but theyalways return.(1),During 16 months the elephants walked 300 miles north to Kunming,the provincial capitalof Yunnan Province.Along the way,they robbed the crops and blocked the traffic,causing abouta half million dollars in damage,and there was the risk of an elephant attacking a curiousonlooker.(2).The simple answer would be to calm the giant mammals and transport them backto the reserve.But that would be risky for this group,especially for the three baby elephants.Instead,officialsmobilized(动 员)an emergency task force to keep everyone,elephants and humansalike,safe.Drones tracked the elephants every move.Electric fences,road barriers,and newpathways helped them move toward safer routes.Tons of corm,pineapples,and bananas wereused to trick them away from towns.(3).Some might argue that doing so much to keep a familyof elephants safe was wasteful.But conserving our natural and human heritage is aboutencouraging good in the world.(4),just as we need health and peace.Theyre essential parts ofthe world where our lives take place,and they help us make sense of our own stories.Theyprovide the context for our existence.第6 页，共 21页A.They have become global celebritiesB.They Ye
