14．Why You Should Embrace Your Depression
Depression affects millions of people worldwide，and while some of them suffer from mild and short-lived depression，others suffer from a deep state of depression all the time．While being depressed is certainly a negative thing that can seriously affect your life，it also has its upsides．Here are some reasons why you should embrace your depression-accepting it and realizing its advantages is a big step toward overcoming it!
It's widely known that some of the world's greatest writers and painters created their excellent works when they were depressed or deeply hurt．It is almost an unwritten rule of the universe：when you experience a high level of sadness and depression，you tend to create deeply moving things．This is precisely what makes depression such a huge contradictory （自相矛盾的） thing these days，since for some of them depression is often associated with a lack of focus，determination or motivation．
Another common view surrounding depression is that it prevents you from thinking clearly．For some people，however，it actually helps them concentrate and see things in a totally different light．This aspect of depression applies especially if the depression was caused by an extremely upsetting life event，such as the loss of somebody dear to you．
Depression can teach you to find reasons for living，which may sound contradictory，since depression is often associated with a lack of desire to live，but in some cases where a person is so depressed that they only see the world in"black and white，"the depression can help them find reasons for living and going on．Life will try to bring you down more than once，but it is important to stand up more times than you fall down．Depression can help make you look back and see where you may have done wrong，and what you can correct to make things better．
When people are depressed，they tend to believe there is nothing good left in the world．However，it often happens that our friends and family show their true support when we are down and we need them．Depression can be a good test to see who is with you and who will flee at the first sign of weakness．Being depressed means that you will need the moral and emotional support of those close to you-and it will undoubtedly make you cherish your health，your friends and your family．Unfortunately，many of us tend to take these things for granted until it is too late．
Depression is certainly not something one would wish for，but it doesn't mean that you cannot make something positive out of it．Those suffering from depression should try to keep an open mind and to analyze all the pros and cons of situations objectively，and they might be amazed to see that there are actually several upsides they have never taken into consideration．
Why You Should Embrace Your Depression
（81）Effect（s）/Influence（s）/Impact（s） of depression on peopleIt affects many people around the （82）world/globe either for a short time or all the time．
Reasons why you should embrace depressionIt is sometimes the mother of creativity．●It is a universal truth that some excellent works were created when the writers and painters were in a state of depression．
●When depressed，you are more likely to create things that may make people deeply （83）moved/touched．
It can actually help you think clearly．●Depression helps some people stay focused and see things differently instead of （84）preventing/stopping them thinking clearly．
●This is especially true when something extremely upsetting （85）happened/occurredto you and led to your depression．
It can teach you to find reasons for living．●（86）Contraryto the popular belief that depression often leaves people no desire to live，it helps them find reasons for living on．
●Depression can help you look back and learn from past （87）mistakes．
It can （88）undoubtedly help you cherish your health，your friends and family．●Your friends and family are always there for you when you are in （89）low  spirits and in need of support morally and emotionally．
●Depression can put people close to you to the test and help find your true friends．
Attitudes that you should take to depressionBe open-minded and analyze situations objectively，and you will be amazed to see there is actually something positive that you have never （90）considered．

18．Pupils remember more and behave better when 3D images are used in lessons，research suggests．They are quicker to learn and absorb new concepts，and display higher levels of concentration．
Professor Anne Bamford，of the University of the Arts，London，studied the effectiveness of 3D content in 15schools across seven countries，including the UK．Pupils in 3D classes can remember more than those in the 2D classes after four weeks，improving test scores by an average of 1 7percent compared with eight percent for 2D lessons．They gave more detailed answer to the tasks and were more likely to think in 3D，using hand gestures and mime（模仿動(dòng)作） to answer the test questions successfully．
The teachers commented that the pupils in the 3D groups had deeper understanding，increased attention span，more motivation and higher engagement in the lessons．
Children are used to 3D with the rise of computer games that use the technology-90percent of those in the study had seen a 3D film．Schools would need 3D-enabled projectors（投影儀），laptops with good picture capabilities，3D software and glasses for children to introduce animations（動(dòng)作） into classrooms．
But Danny Nicholson，an educationist，said the technology would be impractical to use in
schools and could be costly．He said，"While I think the idea of 3D technology is very interesting，
I worry that 3D is a bit of an expensive gimmick（小玩意兒）．There are a few cases where a true 3D image might help，but most of the time，good 2D models that can be moved would be just as effective．"
In the US，one school district in Colorado is already in the process of having 1.000 3D projectors fixed in classrooms．And the University of Caledonia，which carries out scientific research into the Lake Tabon Basin  has used 3D presentations with Grade Six pupils．Those who watched the 3D presentations were more engrossed and reported a general increase in their interest in science compared with students who watched the 2D version．
25．What is the main idea of the first three paragraphs？B
A．There are slight differences between 3D and 2D images．
B．Pupils perform better when 3D images are used in classes．
C．Schools have difficulties in making full use of 3D technology．
D．3D technology is always more effective than 2D technology．
26．Danny Nicholson holds the view that 3DD．
A．is of no help in classes  
B．has a bright future in classes
C．is more practical than 2D models  
D．may not be affordable for schools
27．What can we learn from the last paragraph？D
A．3D technology will replace 2D models in the future．
B．Many pupils are now more Interested In science than before．
C．Teachers will use the 3D technology through specific training．
D．3D will soon be put into use in one school district in Colorado．
28．The underlined word"engrossed"in the last paragraph meansA．
A．a(chǎn)bsorbed     B．a(chǎn)nnoyed   C．relaxed      D． confused．

15．Each new school year brings fresh reminders of what educators call the summer learning gap．Some call it the summer learning setback．Simply speaking，it means the longer kids are out of school，the more they forget．The only thing they might gain is weight．
Most American schools follow a traditional nine-month calendar with winter and spring breaks and about ten weeks of summer vacation．Some schools follow a year-round calendar．They hold classes for about eight weeks at a time，with a few weeks off in between．The National Association for Year-Round Education says there were fewer than 3，000such schools at last count．They were spread among forty-six of the fifty states．
But many experts point out that the number of class days in a year-round school is generally the same as in a traditional school．Lead researcher Paul von Hippel said，"Year-round schools don't really solve the problem of the summer learning setback．They simply spread it out across the year．"
Across the country，research shows that students from poor families fall farther behind over the summer than other students．Experts say this can be prevented．They note that many schools and local governments offer programs that can help．
But calling them"summer school"could be a problem．The director of the summer learning center at Johns Hopkins，Ron Fairchild，said research with groups of different parents in Chicago and Baltimore found that almost all strongly disliked the term"summer school"．In American culture，the idea of summer vacation is connected to beliefs about freedom and the joys of childhood．The parents welcomed other terms like"summer camp，""extra time"and"hands-on learning．"

28．According to the first paragraph，the summer learning gapD
A．helps children to gain weight         B．leads children to work harder
C．improves children's memories          D．a(chǎn)ffects children's regular studies
29．Which of the following statements is true？A
A．Students from poor families often fall behind after the vacation．
B．Year-round schools can solve the problem of the learning gap．
C．There are schools in each state following a year-round calendar．
D．Nothing can help the students who fall behind after the vacation．
30．Why did almost all parents dislike the term"summer school"？A
