31、 many people, when they speak of home, tend to connect it with a certain atmosphere, certain physical surroundings(环境), and certain emotional attitudes within themselves. This sentimentality(多愁善感) toward home is something that has come down to us from the past. Many modern people do not have it, and

32、 I think it is a good thing that they do not.In the old days, life was difficult. Enemies could attack you and kill or rob you, and you had little protection against them. People did not live in well-built houses where doors could be locked. They did not have the protection of an organized police fo

33、rce or telephones which could call the police instantly. How did this influence the way people felt about home? Small family groups clung(贴近) tightly together for protection against beasts and against other men. Today, thanks to modern transportation and well-organized society, thousands of people w

34、illingly and eagerly leave the surroundings where they were born, and the oftener they do so, the less sentiment they are likely to have for those surroundings.

35、 could just telephone and ask an agency to provide them with a house or an apartment, which was their home. How has the meaning of this word “home” been changed by such activity?

36、lieve that for them home means a place where they can have privacy.As for me, the atmosphere and surroundings of the place where my parents live have no sentimental attachment(依恋).

37、ou might call it unfeeling, but that was the way I felt. On the day of my departure for the United States, my grandmother cried. My father, however, showed that he knew how I felt.

40、he History of HomeB. People and HomeC. Different Ideas of HomeD. Ideas of Home Have Changed DDepression is not a choice. Rather, it is a true medical condition like high blood pressure or heart disease. In the United States alone, more than 17 million people suffer from depression with women being t

41、wice as likely as men to suffer from the disease. Depression crosses racial and socioeconomic lines. Anyone can suffer from it, and those that do are not crazy or weak. They have a serious yet highly treatable disease. Feeling down? Youre not alone. If depression seems pretty common, it is. One in e

42、very ten adults suffers from depression. And thats what has scientists confused. If depression causes harm to the body, why is it so widespread in the population? Some scientists think they may have the answer. Depression may have an evolutionary (进化) benefit. It may improve ones chances of fighting

43、 off infection (感染). Scientists have known that depressed people show an immunoreactive (免疫反应性的) condition known as inflammation (炎症), even when they are not infected. For several years they have been finding that genes (基因) linked to depression also affect the function of the immune system. Stress,

45、tibiotics (抗生素). Infection was a major cause of death in early human history. Surviving those infections determined which genes were passed to the next generation.They doubt that depression helped people, especially children, stay alive from infection. Extreme tiredness leads to inactivity and less

46、social contact which helps keep infection from spreading. Having no appetite helps avoid food sharing which can also spread infection. Sleeplessness, which is associated with both depression and immune system activation, may have been a mechanism to keep a person alert(机警) to fight off enemies after

47、 injury.If scientists are correct about this link, it could lead to new treatments for depression. They are interested in drugs that treat conditions where the immune system attacks the persons own body, known as auto immune diseases.
