There is one type of illness in the world that affects more people than anything else and is very deadly．If untreated this illness could affect everything you do．What is this illness? Depression．Serious depression requires professional treatment．Self-induced depression is something each of us can change．
Everyone’s circumstances are different，but the causes of self-induced depression are common: low self-esteem，hurtful thinking and a bad attitude．
So how can we change the way we think，feel，and cultivate a cheerful attitude? 
First we must look at ourselves，truly and honestly examining our motives for what we wish to achieve．If you are dissatisfied because you feel you haven’t or can’t do anything，then one step is needed—to set goals．
Always start your goals relatively small and easy to attain．Think of them as sand； one grain may be insignificant but as a group they form the beach．Once you have set and attained small goals for yourself，move on to slightly larger，more challenging goals．
It takes more than just setting goals to be happy．It takes positive thinking．How can we attain this? 
There are a number of factors that can make us think negatively and one of those is diet．
In my opinion，a person who eats a lot of take-out and fast food is feeding their body junk．Start by eating better foods which give the body much NEEDED minerals．If your physical body is happy，it’s much easier for your mental body or “thinking ability” to be happy．
Next，exercise．Half an hour a day is recommended for positive well being．Then think about good memories you had，or generally think of things that make you smile．Remember，everything you wear costs money but to wear a smile is free．A smile can be the difference between an average day and a great day．
If you follow these steps，positive change is inevitable．
61．Which of the statements about depression is TRUE?
A．Depression is a kind of illness that can’t be cured like some cancer．
B．Depression can all be cured successfully by patients themselves．
C．Those who suffer from depression live in similar circumstances．
D．Those who suffer from depression feel dissatisfied with themselves．
62．According to the passage we can learn that ____________．
A．a practical goal can help people to achieve a sense of success
B．we shouldn’t be satisfied with small goals that are insignificant
C．we should avoid challenging goals that may lead to failure
D．people can enjoy happiness only if they set reasonable goals
63．In order to achieve positive thinking a person should do these things EXCEPT_________． 
A．eat healthier foods            B．set challenging goals  
 C．exercise half an hour a day   D．always wear a smile
64．What can we infer from the reading passage?
A．Those who can achieve small goals can surely achieve big ones．
B．Take out and fast food cannot provide people with enough minerals．
C．You can only exercise half an hour if you want to get rid of depression．
D．Smile is the cheapest thing compared to other possessions you have．
65．What’ s the passage mainly about?
A．Some ways to deal with depression．B．The danger depression can bring to people．
C． How to keep positive thinking．    D．The argument that depression can be changed．

第三部分 书面表达 (共两节，满分45分)
第一节  阅读表达（共5小题；每小题3分,满分15分）
阅读下面的短文并回答问题，然后将答案写到相应的位置上（请注意问题后的词数要求）。
[1] Have you ever had the wish to live another 100 years or more? Experts say that scientific advances will some day enable us to live tens of years longer than what is now seen as the natural limit of the human life span．
[2] “I guess we are knocking at the door of living longer,” said Michael Zey, a Montclair State University business professor and author of two books on the future．“I think by 2075 we will _________________ and that’s a conservative estimate （保守的估计）．”
[3]At the conference in San Francisco, Donald Louris, a professor at New Jersey Medical School in Newark said advances in using genes as well as nanotechnology （纳米技术） make it likely that humans will live in the future beyond what has been possible in the past．"There is a great push so that people can live from 120 to 180 years," he said．
[4]However, many scientists who specialize in ageing are doubtful about it and say the human body is just not designed to live past about 120 years．Even with healthier lifestyles and less disease, they say failure of the brain and organs will finally lead all humans to death．
[5]Scientists also differ on what kind of life the super aged might live．"It remains to be seen if you pass 120, you know; could you be healthy enough to have a good quality of life?" said Leonard Poon, director of the University of Georgia Gerontology Centre．"At present people who could get to that point are not in good health at all．"
