    It's only 4 hours flying time from Sydney, but a world away. What better place to rest than a country where the only place people hurry is on the football field and things are done in "Fiji time"?

    Viti Lev-Great Fiji-is the largest island. Here you'll find the capital Suva and the international airport at Nadi Vatoa, on the other hand, is a tiny island in the farthest part of Hiji. Then there are 331 other islands, many of them with places to stay.

    With less than a million people living on islands, you'll never feel crowded And with a climate(气候)that changes only for five degrees between seasons, there’s never a bad time to come.

    From cities to villages, from mountains to beaches, from water sports to wooden artworks, Fiji can give you more adventures and special experiences than you could find almost any where in the world.

    Whenever you come , wherever you go ,you’re sure to see some unforgettable events , From war dances to religious (宗教的) songs. From market days to religious days. It's not just staged for tourists; it's still a part of everyday life in Fiji And any one of us can enjoy Fiji's spirit by being part of the traditional (传统的) sharing of yaqona—a drink made from the root of a Fiji plant

    So why not join us for the experience of a lifetime?

    57. Where is the international airport of Fiji?

    A. In Suva B. In Sydney

    C. On the island of Vatoa D. On the island of Viti Levu

    Depression

    Everyone occasionally feels blue or sad.But these feelings are usually short-lived and pass within a couple of days.Depression is a common but serious illness.
    Major depression prevents a person from functioning normally.It interferes with a person's ability to work,sleep,study,eat,and enjoy once-pleasurable activities.Minor depression is character-ized by having symptoms for 2 weeks or longer that do not meet full criteria for major depression. Without treatment,people with minor depression are at high risk for developing major depressive disorder.
    The severity,frequency,and duration of symptoms vary depending on the individual and his or her particular illness.They include persistent sad,anxious,feelings of hopelessness,guilt,worth-lessness,or helplessness,loss of interest in activities or hobbies once-pleasurable,fatigue and decreased energy,difficulty in concentrating,remembering details,and making decisions,insomnia, early-morning wakefulness,or excessive sleeping,suicide attempts.
    Depression also may occur with other serious medical illnesses such as heart disease,stroke, cancer,HI V/AIDS,diabetes,and Parkinson's disease.
    Depression is related to a combination of genetic,biological,environmental,and psychological factors.Research indicates that depressive illnesses are disorders of the brain.Brain-imaging tech-nologies,such as magnetic resonance imaging(MRI),have shown that the brains of people who have depression look different than those of people without depression.Some types of depression tend to run in families.In addition,trauma,loss of a loved one,a difficult relationship,or any stressful situation may trigger a depressive episode.
    Biological,life cycle,hormonal,and psychosocial factors that women experience may be related to women's higher depression rate.For example,women are especially vulnerable to developing postpartum depression after giving birth.Besides,during the transition into menopause,some women experience an increased risk for depression.It is still unclear,though,why some women faced with enormous challenges develop depression,while others with similar challenges do not.

    If a person suffers from minor depression,he may have________.
    A:feelings of guilt or worthlessness
    B:developing postpartum depression after giving birth
    C:going through a transition into menopause
    D:symptoms for 2 weeks that is slightly different from major depression
    E:his family member has depression too
    F: heart disease,stroke,cancer,HIV/AIDS,diabetes,and Parkinson's disease

    问答题
    Practice 2  Globalization is a fact of life. But we have underestimated its fragility. The problem is this. The spread of markets grows faster than the ability of societies and their political systems to adjust to them, let alone to guide the course they take. History teaches US that such an imbalance between the economic, social and political realms can never be sustained for very long.  The industrialized countries learned that lesson in their bitter and costly encounter with the Great Depression. In order to restore social harmony and political stability they adopted social safety nets and other measures. That made possible successive moves towards liberalization, which brought about the long post-war period of expansion.

    正确答案:
    【参考译文】
    全球化已经成为无法回避的事实。但是我认为我们低估了它的脆弱性。问题就在于此。市场的扩展已经远远超出社会及其政治制度的适应能力,而引导市场发展更无从谈起。历史教育我们:这种经济、社会和政治领域发展的不平衡绝不会持续很久。
    工业化国家在大萧条的痛苦和代价高昂的遭遇中吸取了这一教训。为了恢复社会和谐和政治稳定,他们采用了社会安全网和其他一些措施。这使后来迈向自由化的举措得以实施,并带来了长期的战后市场扩张。

    正确答案: D
