25、 that although love can make adults live healthily and happily, it is a bad thing for young people. Puppy love（早恋）may bring stress for young people and can lead to depression. The study shows that girls bee more depressed than boys, and younger girls are the worst of all. The possible reason for the

26、 connection between love and higher risk of depression for girls is “loss of self”. According to the study，even though boys would say “lose themselves in a romantic relationship”, this “loss of self” is much more likely to lead to depression when it happens to girls. Young girls who have romantic re

27、lationships usually like hiding their feelings and opinions. They wont tell that to their parents. Dr Marianm Kaufman，an expert on young people problems, says 15% to 20% young people will have depression during their growing. Trying romance often causes the depression. She advises kids not to jump i

28、nto romance too early. During growing up, it is important for young people to build strong friendships and a strong sense of self. She also suggests the parents should encourage their kids to keep close to their friends，attend more interesting school activities and spend enough time with family. Par

29、ents should watch for signs of depressioneating or mood changesand if they see signs from their daughters or sons, they need to give help. The good news is that the connection between romance and depression seems to bee weak with ageLove will always make us feel young，but only maturity gives us a ch

Romance is a twoedged sword for adults.D. Romance is good for young people.52. Which of the following is more likely to have dep

31、ression?A. Young people who have a strong sense of selfishness.B. Young boys whose parents watch for their behavior.C. Young girls who always hide their feelings and opinions.D. Careless parents whose children are deep in love.53. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Lacking love can lead young

32、people to grow up more quickly.B. Early love makes young people keep close to their friends and parents.C. Parents should help their children to be aware of the signs of depression.D. The older a woman is, the less likely she seems to lose herself in romance.54. Whats the authors attitude towards pu

33、ppy love?A. Confused B. Disapproving C. Disinterested D. ScaredBSometimes youll hear people say that you cant love others until you love yourself. Sometimes youll hear people say that you cant expect someone else to love you until you love yourself. Either way, youve got to love yourself first and t

34、his can be tricky. Sure we all know that were the apple of our parents eyes, and that our Grandmas think were great talents and our Uncle Roberts think that we will go to the Olympics. But sometimes its a lot harder to think such nice thoughts about ourselves. If you find that believing in yourself

35、is a challenge. It is time you built a positive self-image and learn to love yourself.Self-image is your own minds picture of yourself. This image includes the way you look, the way you act, the way you talk and the way you think. Interestingly, our self-images are often quite different from the ima

36、ges others hold about us. Unfortunately, most of these images are more negative than they should be. Thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to changing your self-image and your whole world.The best way to defeat a passive self-image is to step back and decide to stress your succes

37、ses. That is, make a list of you need to, but write down all of the great things you do every day. Dont allow doubts to occur in it.It very well might be that you are experiencing a negative self-image because you cant move past one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself. Well, roll up your sl

38、eeves and make a change of it as your primary task. If you think youre silly because you arent good at math, find a tutor. If you think youre weak because you cant run a mile, get to the track and practice. If you think youre dull because you think it doesnt mean its true.The best way to get rid of

39、a negative self-image is to realize that your image is far from objective, and to actively convince yourself of your positive qualities. Changing the way you think and working on those you need to improve will go a long way towards promoting a positive self-image. When you can pat（拍）yourself on the

40、back, youll know youre well on your way. Good luck!55.

52、rom treating alcohol the way other people do. But the effects might be more serious than just a red face. Researchers warn of a link between this condition and an increased risk of cancer of the esophagus (食道) from drinking alcohol.The more alcohol people with this deficiency drink, the greater thei

53、r risk is. In Japan and South Korea, for example, many people have the deficiency but still drink heavily. Researchers found that these drinkers develop a form of esophageal cancer six to ten times more often than those without the deficiency.Esophageal cancer is one of the deadliest cancers. It can

54、 be treated when found early, but once it grows the chances of survival drop sharply. The researchers estimate that at least five hundred forty million people have the deficiency, about eight percent of the worlds population.Philip Brooks is a researcher at the National Institute in the United State

55、s. He says it is important to educate people about the link between the alcohol flushing effect and esophageal cancer. He says doctors should ask East Asian patients about their experiences with facial flushing after drinking alcohol. Those with a history of it should be advised to limit their alcoh

60、The positive side of this negative emotion is that it has helped us to evolve as humans and cope in a better manner with our surroundings.
