Nowadays, it seems like everything is going digital. From news articles and recipes to yoga classes, you can find almost everything on the Internet. Many people find this way of life more 【1】 (convenience). Perhaps that’s why some people choose 【2】 (shop) for their clothes online.

With the click of a button, you can order anything you want, and have it 【3】 (deliver) directly to your front door. For someone with a busy lifestyle, this seems ideal.

【题目】 Health and Social Care Secretary Jeremy Hunt has announced that the UK will host the first ever Global Ministerial Mental Health Summit(峰会) in London this October.This global summit aims to put mental-health care on an equal footing with the physical kind.

But there is a long way to go. One in four people will experience a mental-health problem at some point in life. In rich countries mental illnesses account for more suffering and premature death than heart disease, strokes(中风) or cancer. Meanwhile the central-African countries have just one mental-health professional per 100,000 people, a fiftieth as many as Europe has. (Less than 1% of foreign aid for health care goes towards mental health.)

As developing countries handle infectious diseases, mental health will consume a greater share of budgets and attention there. By 2020 mental-health conditions may account for 15% of the global burden of disease, but even in rich countries many people with common problems still go without treatment.

It is clear that mental illness is fast becoming one of the global health challenges of the 21st century. Until recently, this hasn’t had the profile it deserves on a global stage. The ministers gathering in London must produce new money and focus—and not just another declaration. The summit is also expected to help countries learn from each other to find the best ways to deal with increased rates of depression and anxiety among young people.

【1】Which of the following best explains “on an equal footing” underlined in paragraph 1?

A.Standing up for.B.Being as important as.

C.Standing in one’s shoes.D.Having an advantage over.

【2】What is the purpose of holding the meeting?

A.To find more foreign aid for health care.

B.To make a declaration on mental illnesses.

C.To solve the physical problems of the youth.

D.To stress the importance of mental health.

【3】Which disease causes more premature death in rich countries?

A.Heart disease.B.Cancer.

C.Mental illness.D.Stroke.

【4】What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?

A.Effective measures should be taken on mental health.

B.The problem of mental illness has drawn enough attention.

C.People in developed countries suffer less mental illnesses.

D.Mental-health diseases have taken up about 15% of the global illness cases.

【题目】 Dangwal was a teacher in Bankholi village from December 2016 till August 21th this year. The school is attended by about 200 children of seven villages. “I had spent nearly three years teaching children in this school and spending time with the villagers. They always considered me as a member of their own family. That is why when I told them that I have been sent to another school, they could not believe it,” said Dangwal.

On learning his leaving, the villagers told him that they would like to organize a “Goodbye” party for him, on which he agreed but placed a condition that “It should be a small one.” However, on the final day I was surprised to see a large number of villagers gathered near the school with drums. As soon as I stepped out of the school, children and women started crying by hugging me while asking me not to go. The love brought tears to my eyes as well,” Dangwal said.

Remembering his early days in the school, Dangwal said it was not easy for him to adjust but gradually he managed it. “In the six months, I faced some problems as the culture and language of the villagers in the area was different from mine. I learnt it, which helped me to get along with the children and villagers,” Dangwal recalled.

“He was not just a teacher of our children but one of us. He always stood with every villager in the hour of need. His leaving the school is a big loss for us,” one of the villagers, Mamta Rawat, said while praising Dangwal.

He was one of the few teachers who decided to live in the village where the school was located while most of the teachers would live at more comfortable places away from the village. This really touched us,” said another villager Harish Uniyal. “He would always be in our hearts,” Uniyal further added.
