found in sports or arts?And howmight this relate to their reported depressive symptoms?A new research published by theAmerican Psychological Association suggests that teenagers participating in after-school artactivities like music,drama,and painting are more likely to report depressive symptoms thantheir non-participating peers.、This is not to say that depression is a necessary condition for either a teen or an adult tobecome an artist,nor are we showing that participating in the arts leads to mental illness,、saidlead author Laura N.Young.MA,of Boston College.、However,previous research hasrevealed higher rates of mental illness symptoms in adult artists.We were interested in whetherthis association is present earlier in development.、Interestingly,teens who engaged exclusively in sports and didn't involve themselves inany other extracurricular activities were reported the least depressive symptoms.Theresearchers found no significant difference in depressive symptoms between teens involved inthe arts who also did sports and those who didn't,suggesting that arts participation,rather thana lack of sports participation,was associated with depression.The researchers used data from the U.S.Survey of Youth collected from 2,482 students 15to 16 years old.The survey asked teens about their frequency of participation in arts or sportsactivities after school,and their experience of various moods or problems related to depression.One theory the researchers proposed for the seeming link between the arts and mentalillness symptoms is that people attracted to the arts might possess certain cognitive(qualities,such as absorbing a higher level of information from their surroundings.This couldlead to general unhappiness and depression,yet also enhance creativity and artistic expression.The authors suggested that personality qualities linked to depression,like introversion ()might guide teens towards more individual activities like the arts、When positive behaviors such as being involved in the arts are associated with symptomsof mental illness,it's essential that we understand why,、said Young.、Further research canaddress the question of whether possible psychological shortcomings can be transformed intobenefits through the practice of the arts、28.What can we learn from the research findings?A.Art activities directly lead to teen mental illness.B.Art participation can be related to teen depression.C.Sports are likely to increase depression rates in teens.D.Being depressed is necessary to become an artist later.29.Which

project.B.The direct cause of the observed phenomenon.C.The theoretical basis of the possible connectionD.The methods applied in conducting the research31.According to Young.what should follow-up researches focus on?A.How to reduce depressive symptoms through sports.B.How to identify the positive impacts of the association.C.How to prove the link between creativity and depression.D.How to tum potential mental weaknesses into strengths.DHave you noticed how the price of online purchases can increase at checkout?This is dueto a strategy called、drip pricing.、coined by American economist Richard Thaler in 1971.Drippricing is a strategy where businesses gradually add extra charges to a customer's bill,makingthe initially advertised price rise.This strategy takes advantage of customers'tendency to commit to a purchase when theysee a low original price.As extra fees are added,customers often continue with the purchasedespite the increased cost due to their emotional investment.Businesses,from e-commercestores to airlines,use this technique to significantly boost their profits.The initial price of aproduct or service can sharply increase with the addition of various costs.For example,a flightticket can considerably increase due to the inclusion of extra costs such as baggage fees,seating options,and access to express lanes.However,current laws seem inadequate in the face of these practices,resulting in calls fornew regulations and clearer retailer responsibilities.Dr.Jane Doe from the Consumer BehaviorResearch Group at the University of Cambridge found that customers'knowledge plays aneffective role.、Our study shows that when customers are informed about drip pricingtechniques,they are less likely to fall for them,ultimately leading to more cost-effectivepurchases,、Dr.Doe said.The success of drip pricing depends on customers not knowing or accepting these extracosts.An interesting suggestion to fight these practices could be the start of an annual event tohighlight and criticize the worst examples of drip pricing Possible award categories mightinclude The Biggest Drip,Most Uselessly Named Charge,and the Droplet Award for multipleextra pricing add-ons.Such an event could strengthen customers and promote openness inpricing.thereby challenging the success of drip pricing.As we progress into the era of digital commerce,the need for transparency and faimess inpricing is becoming increasingly important.Consumer advocates argue that the key to fightingdrip pricing lies not only in stricter laws and regulations from the govemment but also inequipping consumers with the necessary knowledge and tools.32.What does the term、drip pricing、refer to?A.An outdated approach applied in e-commerce pricing.B.An in-depth study on the continual rise of business prices.C.A pricing strategy involving added costs to the initial priceD.A cost reduction technique commonly employed in airlines.33.What drives customers to proceed with a purchase even as costs increase?A.Fear of losing previous orders.B.Restrictions from acts and laws.C.Emotional commitment to the productD.Unawareness of the additional charges.34.According to Dr.Jane Doe,how to protect consumers from drip pricing?A.By enforcing clear new laws.B.By providing consumer educationC.By promoting cost-effective shopping.D.By organizing challenging annual events.35.What can be inferred from paragraphs 4 and 5?A.Annual events will award successful drip pricingB.Ignoring drip pricing is an effective way to resist it.C.Consumer advocates need support from the media.D.Consumers and authorities should make joint efforts.
