is little tolerance for falling in despair.Especially now weve got drugs for getting rid of sad feelingswhether its after losing a job，the break­up of a relationship or the death of a loved one.So its no surprise that more and more people are taking them.But is this really such a good idea？A growing number of voices from the world of mental health research are saying it isnt.They fear that the increasing tendency to treat normal sadness as a disease is playing fast and loose (行為輕率)Sadness，they argue，serves a useful purposeand if we lose it，we lose out.Yet many psychiatrists (精神病醫(yī)生) insist not.Sadness has a nasty habit of turning into depression (抑郁癥)，they warn.Even when people are sad for good reason，they should take drugs to make themselves feel better.So who is right？Is sadness something we cannot live without or something horrible never to touch?There are lots of ideas about why feeling sad should become part of human life.It may be a self­protection strategy，as other primates (靈長(zhǎng)類) also show signs of sadness.A losing monkey that doesnt show sadness after it loses a fight may be seen as continuing to challenge the winning monkeyand that could result in death.In humans，sadness has a further function：we may display sadness as a form of communication.By acting sad，we tell other community members that we need support.Then there is the idea that creativity is connected to dark moods.There are plenty of great artists，writers and musicians who have suffered from depression or disorder.Scientists find that people with signs of depression perform better at a creative task，and that negative moods make people think deeply over the unhappy experience，which allows creative processes to come to the front.There is also evidence that too much happiness can be bad for your career.A doctor found that people who scored 8 out of 10 on a happiness test were more successful in income and education than 9s or 10s.The happiest people lose their willingness to make changes to their lives that may benefit them.1The underlined word “this” refers to_.Ataking drugs Bfalling in despairClosing a job Dfeeling sad2The author believes sadness is_.Aa good thing for peoples healthBsomething horrible never to touchCa necessary function of humansDalways to be treated as depression3Some animals show their sadness in order to_.Acheat their enemy Bprotect themselvesCcomfort the loser Dchallenge the winner4We can infer from the last paragraph that_.Apeople with great creativity tend to be happierBunhappy experiences contribute to a greater careerCtoo much happiness can be bad for your careerDthe happiest people are the most successful ones(2010年湖北重點(diǎn)中學(xué)第二次聯(lián)考)In 1970，tragedy struck the Gerstman family when Harvey and Carol Gerstmans daughter，Lisa Beth，was killed in a summer camp bus accident.Because camp had been such a joy in Lisa Beths life，the Gerstmans wanted to start a foundation in her name.They wanted to bring that same summer camp joy Lisa Beth felt to other children.When Lisa Beths brother，Dan，heard the Cross Island YMCA (CIYMCA) was looking for funds to help send physically disabled children to summer camp，he knew it was the perfect way to keep Lisa Beths memory alive.Dan soon learned that many disabled children spent the summer indoors while their able­bodied peers enjoyed camp.The added costs of one­to­one care and specialized busing for the disabled children prevented them from being able to join in summer camp.The Gerstman family responded to this need by setting up the Lisa Beth Gerstman Foundation in 2003.Its mission (使命) is to provide children with physical disabilities the opportunity to attend camps in an integrated (綜合的) setting.During its first summer，the foundation teamed up with CIYMCA and funded 20 physically disabled kids with varying degrees of disabilities.The children were given the opportunity to experience the joys of summer camp，build lasting friendships and develop their self­confidence.Over the last five years，the Lisa Beth Gerstman Foundation has been partnering with camps that are willing to launch (發(fā)起) integrated programs that include wheelchair accessible transportation，one­to­one swimming instruction，adaptive physical education equipment and training，all in a caring environment where the children join in all regular camp activities.Last summer，the foundation partnered with six camps，which allowed a total of 150 physically disabled children to experience summer camp.5What stopped disabled kids from joining in summer camp according to the passage?ASome extra costs for it.BLack of enough time CNo permission from parents.DLack of self­confidence.6Whats the purpose of setting up the Lisa Beth Gerstman Foundation?ATo develop childrens confidence.BTo raise money for disabled children.CTo organize summer camp for different people.DTo make it possible for disabled children to attend camps.7According to the passage，the Lisa Beth Gerstman Foundation _.Ais in the charge of CIYMCABhas a history of over 30 yearsChas gained support from campsDfunded 150 disabled kids during its first summer.信息匹配ATo be seen and noticed by the leadersBLearn and use new skillsCDo what you are supposed to doDGet useful information and adviceELook for someone to guide youFKeep it in mind：work hard 1.Keep in mind that those who play a lot and hard can loose but those who play smart will always win the day.These tips when employed well will be your tickets to the top.The first thing you need to do is look at your performance.Are you doing what you are supposed to be doing？When you know what is expected，you will acquire a momentum that will lead you to the right direction.Otherwise，there is no need of outdoing yourself and others when you are not delivering the right results.2.The other tip that will make you stand out from the rest is hard work.You need to do extra and ask for more.The workload might be overwhelming but promotion only comes to those who are excellent or do things that are out of the ordinary or beyond expectation.You must employ extreme dedication to make sure that even as you ask for more，you do not compromise on the quality of work you deliver.3.Another tip for promotion is the workplace is to have a presence.You must be seen at work not just by your colleagues but by leaders in your line of work.Take advantage of every opportunity to interact and know that people on top keep a keen eye looking out for those who stand out.4.Do not be shy to embrace new skills and explore a variety.Promotions only come to those who are aware that this is a dynamic world that smiles on those who are willing to adopt new skills.Devote yourself to doing things that are considered extra and do not be afraid of this.This will go a long way in making you the person for consideration when it comes to promotions in the workplace.5.Another tip is get information first hand from those who are on top.Talk to those that have been promoted in your organizations and seek advice.Remember，you do not have to learn throught what they say but can learn through their character and how they do their stuff.Action will speak louder than words.However，you need to be aware that you are doing this to make yourself important and not to become another person.Often times，many workers seeking promotion will pretend to be something they are not.短文改錯(cuò)(2010屆大連24中期中)Construction of a television tower that declared to be the worlds tallest is due to starting in the capital of Guangdong Province.This
